Hi,

Unless I missed something, there doesn’t seem to be any support for Debian 13 (MLNX_OFED or DOCA-OFED).
Is it planned ? Is there an estimated release date ?

Thanks.

Thank you for your inquiry about MLNX_OFED and DOCA-OFED support for Debian 13 (Trixie).

Currently, Debian 13 (Trixie) is not yet officially supported in the released versions of MLNX_OFED or DOCA-OFED. As Debian 13 was only recently released (July 2025), it has not yet been added to the list of supported operating systems.

NVIDIA typically adds support for new operating system versions after thorough testing and validation. Based on previous release patterns, we anticipate that support for Debian 13 will be included in an upcoming release of MLNX_OFED and DOCA-OFED, likely within the next few months.

While we don’t have an exact release date to share at this time, I’ve forwarded your request to our product team to highlight customer interest in Debian 13 support. This will help them prioritize accordingly.

Any update on this?

I’m looking for this as well as some of our virtualization hosts have to rollback from trixie due to DOCA being unsupported.

Apparently the ETA for this is end of October (see Availability of DOCA-RoCE for Debian 13 - #3 by ouno )
