in redhat 6.7 ,the os have a rds module, after install mellanox driver which also include rds module ,the module reference to the mellanox rds module ,how to reference the module to the os ?

os defaule rds module:

#modinfo rds

filename: /lib/modules/2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64/kernel/net/rds/rds.ko

alias: net-pf-21

license: Dual BSD/GPL

version: 4.0

srcversion: 53369380F408295181A5CB7

depends:

vermagic: 2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64 SMP mod_unload modversions

parm: send_batch_count: batch factor when working the send queue (int)

after i install mellanox driver (MLNX_OFED_LINUX-3.1-1.1.0.1) the rds module reference to :

#modinfo rds

so how to relink the rds module to /lib/modules/2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64/kernel/net/rds/rds.ko

Hi Hao,

Mellanox does not support RDS as mentioned in section 2.2 “Unsupported Functionalities/Features/HCAs” of the RN of Mellanox Ofed Driver.

Therefor no rds module is supplied with the latest Mellanox OFED driver. Some older driver version can contain a version of the rds module but still we do not support the use of it.

For support and use of RDS, the OS vendors INBOX driver needs to be used.

Regards,

Sophie.

is there any way to change the modle link ?because i want to use mellanox driver (for better support)
