Topic

Updated libmlx4 packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

The libmlx4 packages provide a device-specific user space driver for Mellanox
ConnectX InfiniBand adapter cards for use with the libibverbs library.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Prior to this update, editing the /etc/ofed/mlx4.conf configuration file to

change a port on a Mellanox ConnectX InfiniBand host channel adapter (HCA) to
"eth" (Ethernet) could cause various errors to occur. This update corrects this
error, and such a port can now be changed as expected. (BZ#709987)

All users of Mellanox ConnectX InfiniBand adapter cards are advised to upgrade
to these updated packages, which fix this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
