Re: x550 5.19.6 driver issue

gradycho · ‎11-30-2023

Hello,

I'm currently using X550,

and I'm trying to install and use ixgbe 5.19.6. However, I'm encountering issues with the installation.

The problem arises during the installation, and it mentions something about

VXLAN_HEADROOM. It seems this is missing.

I'm currently using Ubuntu 20.04.6 with kernel version 5.4.0-169-generic.

It seems that I need a version of the driver from Intel that doesn't use the VXLAN_HEADROOM variable.

I prefer not to modify the source code myself for stability reasons; therefore, it would be helpful if you could distribute a version without using the VXLAN_HEADROOM variable.

Is there a plan to update the ixgbe driver to a version beyond 5.19.6? I would appreciate it if you could provide a response to this inquiry.

Thank you.

Hello, I have reviewed the manual you provided.

The manual states that it supports Linux: Ubuntu 20.04.

The issue is not whether it currently supports or not; rather, with the Ubuntu kernel version update, the VXLAN function has been removed. Therefore, a new driver is needed in the Intel ixgbe driver that does not use the VXLAN function.

Hello gradycho,

Since the issue is out of our support scope, we have moved your thread to the embedded community team.

Someone from the team will reach out to you soon and assist you further on the issue.

Kindly be informed we will be proceeding to close this thread.

Thank you.

Hello, @gradycho:

Thank you for contacting Intel Embedded Community.

Your problem seems to be related to Ubuntu OS, you should address your questions through the channel stated on the following website:

I am very sorry for continuing the same story.

I removed the VXLAN_HEADROOM function in the UBUNTU 20 kernel version 5.4.0-169-generic.

Since the function has been removed from the OS itself, it seems necessary for Intel not to use the VXLAN_HEADROOM function when developing the next driver to be distributed.

I removed the function in UBUNTU. Is it appropriate to inquire with UBUNTU about this?

It would be appreciated if you could convey this information to the Intel driver distribution team.
