   I was attempting to setup SRIOV with Connect-X 4 card and ran into an issue where the physical link is up, but the state reports as down. From what I have read online, virtualization needs to be enabled, but I cannot see where to do that in this version of OpenSM.

   I am attempting to avoid all Nvidia drivers. I see there is this documentation:

   https://github.com/linux-rdma/opensm/blob/master/doc/opensm-sriov.txt

   However, I cannot seem to find a working example of how to use these two configuration options to get SRIOV working.

   I have virtual functions in lspci, am able to unbind/bind to vfio. I am now just lacking the OpenSM functionality.

   Hi, SRIOV with ConnectX4+ devices is supported only with NVIDIA SM that can be downloaded from NVIDIA Web. https://network.nvidia.com/products/adapter-software/infiniband-management-and-monitoring-tools/ Regards, Vladimir From: David Ontiveros ***@***.***> Sent: Monday, 4 September 2023 0:34 To: linux-rdma/opensm ***@***.***> Cc: Subscribed ***@***.***> Subject: Re: [linux-rdma/opensm] OpenSM: Add information about limitations (#22) I was attempting to setup SRIOV with Connect-X 4 card and ran into an issue where the physical link is up, but the state reports as down.

   Thanks Vladimir. Would it be possible to add SRIOV support as a feature request ? Is it even possible?

   We are recommending to use NVDIA SM rpm from Web for customers that can’t use NVIDIA SM from MOFED.
