– Core and ULPs:
– IB HCA low-level drivers (mlx4)
– IB Access Layer (IBAL)
– Ethernet driver (ETH)
– IP over InfiniBand (IPoIB)
This package version is 5.35.52000. The package contains the following versions of components:
– Bus, eth, IPoIB and mux drivers version is 5.35.12978
– The CIM provider version is 5.35.12978
Changes and New Features:
– Ethernet: Updated driver settings for Virtual Function to receive optimal performance
– Ethernet: Added RSS (Rx Steering Mode) monitoring counters support
– Ethernet: Added counter for link up/down to count the number of times that the link operative state changes to down. See “Proprietary Mellanox Adapter Diagnostics Counters” in the User Manual.
– Tools: vstat tool – Added interface description for each port in the vstat tool.
– Tools: Mlxtool – Added support in the following actions:
– Tools: Driver restart
– Tools: Pulling resource tracker information for VFs
– Fixed an issue that occurred rarely when working with LSO – a fragmented packet (with more than 41 fragments) could lead to duplicated headers.
– Fixed an issue that caused low bandwidth when using Software vRSS.
– Fixed an issue that led to non-optimal Out of box performance for virtual function.
– Fixed an issue which caused a firmware upgrade failure (error code 9) during installation, when RoCE was disabled.
– Fixed an issue where Miniport reset could lead to a driver hang when occurred during driver disabling, or to a system crash when occurred during driver shutdown.
– Fixed an issue where the link speed of the IPoIB adapter was the actual speed and not the official speed (i.e. 54.3GB/s instead of 56 GB/s).
– Fixed an issue where firmware burning failed on servers with Connectx-3 and Connectx-4 devices.
– Fixed an issue were Mellanox counters in Perfmon did not work over HP devices.
– Fixed an issue where link load of ports connected to virtual machines took more than 10 seconds. the issue occurred on a hyper-v VMQ setup with several virtual machines, and after running massive traffic on the virtual machines.
– Fixed an issue where in a HyperV machine with VMs running, the network interface required a restart after returning from a Low Power State (sleep/ hibernate).
– Fixed an issue that caused the installation process to hang while checking if the RDSH service is installed.
– Fixed a driver crash that occurred when the VPORT-ID on the TX packet was invalid.
– Updated Link Speed reporting when working with IPoIB and booting using WinPE. This issue caused the link to initialize with a 1Gb/s speed instead of the actual speed.
– Fixed a rare error that caused a freeze in the error flow during the driver’s startup.
– Fixed an SR-IOV team failure caused by an unsuccessful adapter parameters update.
– Fixed an issue which caused a crash in the driver properties dialog, in case more than 8 teaming ports were defined.
Beta Features:
– ibdump: ibdump is currently at beta level.
– IPoIB: IPv6 support of IPoIB in an SR-IOV guest OS over KVM is at beta level.
– IPoIB:IPoIB teaming support is at beta level and is supported only on native machines (and not in HyperV or SR-IOV).
– IPoIB:VMQ over IPoIB in Windows Server 2016 is at beta level due to Known Issue #946432, see “Known Issues” on page 11.
– Virtualization: RDMA over VM when in SR IOV mode is currently at beta level.
– Virtualization: SR-IOV InfiniBand over KVM is currently in Beta level.
The following are the unsupported functionalities/features in WinOF:
– ND over WinVerbs provider
– SRP
– IPv6 over IPoIB Team ports
– VMQ over IPoIB team ports
– Configure IPoIB team through PowerShell
– ConnectX-2 adapter cards
– IBAL performance tools (ib ibv)
