This upgrades the OFED driver related packages to the ones that are
located in https://linux.mellanox.com/public/repo/mlnx_ofed/5.9-0.5.6.0/SRPMS/
That includes rdma-core and the mlnx-tools package that
mlnx-ofa_kernel depends on, and the firmware tool mstflint.
The new versions are:
mlnx-ofa_kernel-5.9.tgz
rdma-core-59mlnx44.tgz
mstflint-4.16.1-2.tar.gz
mlnx-tools-5.2.0.tar.gz
Verification:
- Install onto a StarlingX system with two controller and two compute
nodes with network adapters Mellanox's OFED. The network adapters
of controllers are Mellanox Technologies MT27710 Family
[ConnectX-4 Lx], the network adapters of computes are Mellanox
Technologies MT27800 Family [ConnectX-5].
- Use mstflint to query the firmware on the device.
- Use mstflint to verify firmware.
- Use mstconfig to query configurations.
- Use mstvpd to dump the on-card VPD.
- Use mstregdump to dump hardware registers from Mellanox hardware.
- RDMA/Infiniband over Ethernet functionalities of the Mellanox adapters
were successfully tested using the Linux RDMA community's perftest
package.
