There you can see only mlx4_en but not the other one(mlx4_ib): # lsmod | grep mlx4 mlx4_en 118784 0 mlx4_core 294912 1 mlx4_en We would expect there to be 4 kernel modules loaded such as: mlx[4|5]_ib, rdma_cm, rdma_ucm, and ib_ipoib ** Affects: linux-azure (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1856375 Title: [linux-azure] Request to autoload mlx4/mlx5 modules for DPDK To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-azure/+bug/1856375/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
