RHEA-2020:5584 - Product Enhancement Advisory

Topic

A new kmod-redhat-ena package is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.

Description

The kmod-redhat-ena package contains the Elastic Network Adapter (ENA) driver kernel module, which adds support for LLQ Accelleration in the ENA.

The kernel modules delivered in this erratum have been made available as part of the Red Hat Driver Update Program, which provides updated kernel modules that add support for selected devices in advance of the next Red Hat Enterprise Linux minor release. We strongly recommend that these kernel modules are only used when it is necessary to enable specific hardware, mentioned in this erratum. Partners and customers should continue using the driver that is shipped in the latest Red Hat Enterprise Linux kernel for all other devices that require this driver.
