Topic

Updated libibverbs-rocee and libmlx4-rocee packages that fix one bug are now
available for for Red Hat Enterprise Linux High Performance Network.

Description

The libibverbs-rocee packages provide a library to enable userspace processes to
use RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) "verbs" acording to the InfiniBand
Architecture Specification and the RoCE Protocol Verbs Specification. The
libmlx4-rocee packages provide a device-specific driver for Mellanox ConnectX
InfiniBand host channel adapters (HCAs) for the libibverbs-rocee library.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Prior to this update, running modprobe could, under certain circumstances,

cause an infinite loop. As a consequence, the system ran out of processes and
required a restart to recover. This update modifies the underlying code so that
an incorrect configuration of options in the /etc/modprobe.d/libmlx4.conf file
no longer requires to restart the system. (BZ#805717)

Note: This package is a dependency of the RDMA package and both packages have to
be updated together.

All users who require RDMA are advised to upgrade to these updated packages
which fix this bug.

Solution

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

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
