[LU-16050] ofed_info does not show mlnx-ofed-kernel-modules

Wed, 26 Oct 2022 18:01:27 +0000

After installing MLNX_OFED by running mlnxofedinstall command, I found mlnx-ofed-kernel-modules package was not listed in the output of ofed_info:

# tar xzf MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.6-2.0.9.0-ubuntu22.04-x86_64.tgz 
# cd MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.6-2.0.9.0-ubuntu22.04-x86_64/
# ./mlnxofedinstall --add-kernel-support --all --force
# /etc/init.d/openibd restart

# dpkg -S /usr/src/ofa_kernel/x86_64/5.15.0-41-generic/
mlnx-ofed-kernel-modules: /usr/src/ofa_kernel/x86_64/5.15.0-41-generic

# ofed_info | awk '{print $2}' | grep mlnx-ofed
mlnx-ofed-kernel-utils

There is no mlnx-ofed-kernel-modules in the output, which caused Lustre configure hit the following error:

checking whether to use Compat RDMA... /usr/bin/ofed_info
dpkg-query: error: --listfiles needs at least one package name argument

The relevant codes are in lnet/autoconf/lustre-lnet.m4:
