Hello!

Following up on my previous message about ensuring my drivers are loaded in initrd. It was suggested to add
Before=initrd-switch-root.target
 and consider my systemd service started only when the drivers are fully loaded.

What is the correct way to ensure my service is not considered started until the drivers are loaded?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you, Carolina Jubran

The modules need to be loaded using the services because there are several things that still do not autoload their modules.

For instance, attempting an NFS mount over RDMA will fail unless the RDMA NFS module is pre-loaded.

Hi,

may I ask why you need your own .service to load the module instead of using modules-load.d and modprobe.d? Just to understand your problem better.
