Hi Raghav, What OFED version did you install?
There are 2 ways to compile mlx4: 1. You can compile it dynamically with the libibverbs that are coming with Mellanox_OFED 2.4 2. To get better performance: compile it statically with libibverbs and libmlx4 that can be downloaded from http://dpdk.org/download, the README inside librte_pmd_mlx4 explains how to do it If you compile the pmd statically then MLNX_OFED is needed only for kernel modules.

Works like a charm. Still getting the issue on the old machine (also upgraded to 2.0.0 FWIW).
