I think you are using ./rdma-core.spec? I forgot about that one and
didn't make it work, I will fix it.
You probably want to use redhat/rdma-core.spec anyhow?
When testing, you want to start with a system that doesn't load any
modules, then install the new rpms and see what happens. (rdma-core, iwpmd)
For iwarp I expect that systemd will auto start these units:
rdma-load-modules@iwpmd.service loaded active exited Load RDMA modules from /etc/rdma/modules/iwpmd.conf
rdma-load-modules@rdma.service loaded active exited Load RDMA modules from /etc/rdma/modules/rdma.conf
rdma-load-modules@iwarp.service loaded active exited Load RDMA modules from /etc/rdma/modules/iwarp.conf
iwpmd.service loaded active running iWarp Port Mapper
And you should have a reasonable set of modules loaded. Check the
journal for interesting errors also..
For cxgb4 these are the two critical udev lines:
ENV{ID_NET_DRIVER}=="cxgb4", RUN{builtin}+="kmod load iw_cxgb4"
DRIVERS=="cxgb4", ENV{ID_RDMA_IWARP}="1"
The first should load iw_cxgb4 if an ethernet device with the cxgb4
driver is found (the driver name being matched is as reported by
ethtool -i)
Both need to trigger for things to work properly, you can check with:
$ udevadm info /sys/class/net/ethX
$ udevadm info /sys/class/infiniband/cxgb4_0 # ??
Thanks,
Jason
