How do we pass module options to modules that
dracutloads during boot time? -
For example in
/etc/modprobe.d/libmlx4.confwe have added the option:options mlx4_core log_mtts_per_seg=5 -
When dracut brings up ib0, and loads the mlx4_core module, it does not yet see this option.
- I don't see anything obvious in dracut man page on where to put a file like modprobe.conf to put these types of things.
- We often set module options for network cards to not do tcp offloading and things like that so I am looking for the generic way to do this properly within dracut.
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 NFS Root
