    How to use the mlx5_core driver with Mellanox ConnectX-4 Lx in Debian?

    Final results that I'm willing to try out: Brocade modules do not work with this model of ConnectX-4 either. The only thing I can get working is Mellanox programmed transceivers. Port 1/4/1: Vendor: RUCKUS Version: A Part# : 57-1000267-01 Serial#...

    lol you guys should untuck your shirts every once in a while. Still don't want to admit you were wrong though huh? It's not so hard, big man. This is the top SEO because there were no resources on this before me. The algorithm doesn't lie. I'm simply out here contributing to the knowledge...

    How to use the mlx5_core driver with Mellanox ConnectX-4 Lx in Debian?

    Is the CLI for switches or for PCIE cards? I'm talking about PCIE cards. Good to know. I haven't gotten mine to connect via Ethernet Mode with anything other than Mellanox, but maybe the Lx variant of my card is slightly different than your ConnectX-5. The drivers link out the same, but I...

    How to use the mlx5_core driver with Mellanox ConnectX-4 Lx in Debian?

    Yes, precisely. This is between a PCIE card and a Brocade ICX 7450 switch port with 2 KAIAM optical modules. Even directly connecting does not work between two ConnectX-4 Lx cards using the KAIAM modules.

    How to use the mlx5_core driver with Mellanox ConnectX-4 Lx in Debian?

    You ended up being right! Mellanox transceivers are all I've been able to get working with these. I'll make a support matrix next week after some testing and post it here. Thank you for the insight. I would never have guessed.

    How to use the mlx5_core driver with Mellanox ConnectX-4 Lx in Debian?

    Still not able to get this to stick, but thanks for the link! Somehow I've gotten SRIOV working and ethernet enabled despite the firmware disagreeing. See quote. Will try flashing / updating firmware to see if that changes anything. See you in the other thread ;)

    How to use the mlx5_core driver with Mellanox ConnectX-4 Lx in Debian?

    Yes in the end I went the module route for part of it, sysfs for the eth enablement, and the mellanox config tool for SRIOV. Strange combination. /etc/modprobe.d/mlx4_core.conf looks like options mlx4_core num_vfs=2 port_type_array=2 probe_vf=2 mstconfig -d set SRIOV_EN=1 NUM_OF_VFS=2 and
