- Biosdevname does not provide interface naming information for ConnecX4 Devices
+ [SRU] Biosdevname does not provide interface naming information for ConnecX4
Devices
** Description changed:
- Hi,
+ [ Impact ]
+ * People using ConnecX4 devices
- Biosdevname is enabled by default for ubuntu14.04.4,
+ [ Regression Potential ]
+ * really low, this is something that comes from upstream codebase and newer
versions
+
+ [Other info ]
+ Biosdevname is enabled by default for ubuntu14.04.4,
We see that the ConnectX3 interface name is pXpX and ConnectX4 interfaces is
ethX
when biosdevname is enabled we should see all the interfaces like pxpX
As for biosdevname user manual :
when we ran #biosdevname -i <interface name> , it should return the interface
biosdevname
- the command exit code should return 0 for success
+ the command exit code should return 0 for success
see it in the link :http://linux.die.net/man/1/biosdevname.
When we run biosdevname on ConnectX4 interface we get return status 2.
could you please add support for ConnectX4 devices ?
Exit Codes
Returns 0 on success, with BIOS-suggested name printed to stdout.
Returns 1 on provided device name lookup failure.
Returns 2 if system BIOS does not provide naming information. biosdevname
requires system BIOS to provide naming information, either via SMBIOS or sysfs
files.
Returns 3 if not run as root but requires root privileges.
Returns 4 if running in a virtual machine.
