System will boot to RHEL 9.2 Emergency mode after reboot when install latest mellanox OFED driver 23.07-0.5.1.2

Infrastructure & Networking Software And Drivers Mellanox OFED

As the title says, I have install latest Mellanox OFED driver on RHEL9.2 (Standard Partition).
After OS reboot, the system will boot to emergency mode.
I have double check the kernel version is the same as OFED driver package release version.
MCX-6 and MCX-7 have same issue.

Verify#1: Use the old version 23.04-1.1.3.0 can passed.
Verify#2: Use the old version 23.07-0.5.0.0 still failed.

Hi @Jim.Shi ,

The permanent fix for this issue will be within MLNX_OFED 23.10-0.0.7.0 estimated GA scheduled end of October.
Until then, you have a workaround:

  1. Install MLNX_OFED
  2. After a successful MOFED install, prior to rebooting, run the following commands:

#rm /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/extra/mlnx-ofa_kernel/drivers/nvme/common/nvme-common.ko
#rm /etc/depmod.d/zz01-mlnx-ofa_kernel-nvme-common.conf
#depmod (-a)
#dracut -f

Hi @chenh1 ,

Thanks for your help.
If possible, could you provide Errata or any document to me?
