mlnx-ofed roll will not build on Centos 7.6.1810 with MLNX_OFED 4.7 #5

Closed munorc closed 5 years ago

munorc commented 5 years ago

I have built the mlnx-ofed roll under CentOS 7.4, 7.5 and 7.6 with many variants of MLNX_OFED, including versions 4.3, 4.5 and 4.6. Mellanox recently released version 4.7 1.0.0.1. Following the same procedures, I can build the roll, and I do not see any apparent errors. However, there are no relevant RPMS packaged in the roll. The only RPM's I see in it are:

mlnx-ofed-linux-4.7-1.0.0.1.x86_64.rpm roll-mlnx-ofed-4.7-1.0.0.1-3.10.0-957.27.2.el7-kickstart-4.7-0..noarch.rpm sdsc-mlnx-ofa_pythonresolve-1-0.x86_64.rpm

As a test, I just rebuilt the 4.6-1.0.1.1 version, on the same host, and it completed successfully.

I can hand install the MLNX_OFED distribution on the machines with this OS config.

It appears Mellanox changed the hierarchy inside the RPMS sub-directory of the generated MLNX_OFED_LINUX-4.7-1.0.0.1-rhel7.6-x86_64-ext.tgz package.

While I haven't completed a full test of the install of RPMs from this version of MLNX_OFED_LINUX I can provide the following diff that should allow you to create a roll from the 4.7 1.0.0.1 version.

The roll I generated from source with this change contained most of the expected RPMS...

If/when we migrate one of our systems to this version of MLNX_OFED_LINUX I'll have a chance to fully test the install of these RPMs during node kickstart.
