[Tom] Some testing from an Intel group who had these QLE7140 HCAs revealed to me that they do _not_ work with our recent software stack such as IFS 7.1.1 (which includes OFED 1.5.4.1) . They were able to get them to work with the QLogic OFED+ 6.0.2 stack. That corresponds to OFED 1.5.2 -- that was the first OFED to include PSM. I am providing this info as a courtesy, but not making any guarantees that it will work. > > > You can get the driver (ib_qib) and PSM library from OFED 1.5.4.1 or > > the current release OFED 3.5. > > I wonder if there's a version of the driver that's known to work in a > current RHEL5 system with QLE7140. We get frequent qib-related kernel > panics from a vanilla RHEL5.9 kernel [Tom] The older QLogic and OFED stacks mentioned above were not ported to nor tested with RHEL 5.9, which did not exist at the time.
