working on : ubuntu 20.4 (hosted by esxi)
I would like to assign a driver to a specific interface :
ifconfig show two interface name
ens160:
ens192:
160 is classic ETH and 192 is an HBA connector 25 Gb.
I show you more informations with the fcoe command :
#fcoeadm -i ens192
Description: VMXNET3 Ethernet Controller
Revision: 01
Manufacturer: VMware
Serial Number: 005056AAA998
Driver: vmxnet3 1.5.0.0-k
Number of Ports: 1
Symbolic Name: fcoe v0.1 over ens192
OS Device Name: host33
Node Name: 0x1000005056aaa998
Port Name: 0x2000005056aaa998
Fabric Name: 0x0
Speed: 10 Gbit
Supported Speed: 1 Gbit, 10 Gbit
MaxFrameSize: 1452 bytes
FC-ID (Port ID): 0xffffffff
State: Offline
The hba connector is :
Mellanox Technologies MT27800 Family [ConnectX-5]
Let's see :
#lshw -C network |grep conf
configuration : autonegotiation=off broadcast=yes driver=vmxnet3 driverversion=1.5.0.0-k-NAPI duplex=full ip=10.18.100.7 latency=0 link=yes multicast=yes port=twisted pair speed=10Gbit/s
configuration : autonegotiation=off broadcast=yes driver=vmxnet3 driverversion=1.5.0.0-k-NAPI duplex=full ip=172.16.44.7 latency=0 link=yes multicast=yes port=twisted pair speed=10Gbit/s
I already loaded the module mlx5_core and also restarted the network interface.
#:/lib/modules/5.8.0-55-generic# lsmod |grep -e 'mlx|vmx'
mlx5_core 1044480 0
tls 90112 1 mlx5_core
mlxfw 32768 1 mlx5_core
pci_hyperv_intf 16384 1 mlx5_core
vmxnet3 61440 0
But that i want to do is to specifically assign the mlx5 module to the ens192 network interface.
Can someone gime the tips pls?
