[openib-general] vapi start error : mod_thh

[Tziporet Koren]

Hi,

>From /var/log/messages we can see that the driver does not get the correct
FW version (the version received is 0.0.0).
Query FW is the first command that the driver performs. The command succeeds
but the data written to outbox is wrong.
The driver give a physical address for the HCA to write the outbox, and
since the command do succeeds I suspect there is a problem with the physical
address that the HCA writs.

We once saw such a problem and it was a chipset/bios problem.

Please provide us the following details so we will have better
understanding:
1. The platform you are using.
2. The OS & kernel
3. The output of lspci -xvv

Hi Dror,

Thanks for your reply.

here is the log from /var/log/messages.

Actually, I plugged a different HCA now.. and still the same result.
I really need to get this system up asap. Please help if possible.

Earlier, I was using the mellanox cougar cub card and this 
time, its the 
  regular version (normal height with memory socket)
