Title:
[Hyper-V/Azure] Please include Mellanox OFED drivers in Azure kernel
and image
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Yakkety:
Fix Released
Bug description:
In order to have the correct VF driver to support SR-IOV in Azure, the
Mellanox OFED distribution needs to be included in the kernel and the
image. Mellanox's drivers are not upstream, but they are available
from here:
https://www.mellanox.com/page/products_dyn?product_family=26&mtag=linux_sw_drivers&ssn=3nnhohirh5htv6dnp1uk7tf487
While this configuration is not explicitly listed as supported in the
release notes, Microsoft and Mellanox engineers are working on the
corresponding Windows Server 2016 PF driver to support this VF driver
in operation in Ubuntu guests.
I file file a corresponding rebase request to pick up the PCI
passthrough and other SR-IOV work done for the Hyper-V capabilities in
the upstream 4.9 kernel.
Only 64-bit support for Ubuntu 16.04's HWE kernel is needed.
