Linux FAQs with Answers--How to compile ixgbe driver on CentOS, RHEL or Fedora
|
||
|
|
================================================================================
|
||
|
|
> **Question**: I want to build and install the latest ixgbe 10G NIC driver. How can I compile ixgbe driver on CentOS, Fedora or RHEL?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To use Intel's PCI Express 10G NICs (e.g., 82598, 82599, x540) on your Linux system, you need to install ixgbe driver. While modern Linux distributions come with ixgbe driver pre-installed as a loadable module, the pre-built ixgbe driver is not fully customizable with limited parameters. If you want to enable and customize all available features of the 10G NICs (e.g., RSS, multi-queue, virtual functions, hardware offload), you will need to build the driver from the source.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here is how to compile ixgbe driver from the source on Red Hat based platforms (e.g., CentOS, RHEL or Fedora). For Debian based systems, refer to [this guideline][1] instead.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Step One: Install Prerequisites ###
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
First, set up necessary developmen environment and install matching kernel headers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ sudo yum install gcc make
|
||
|
|
$ sudo yum install kernel-devel
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Step Two: Compile Ixgbe Driver ###
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Download the latest ixgbe source code from the [official site][2].
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/e1000/ixgbe%20stable/3.23.2/ixgbe-3.23.2.tar.gz
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Be sure to check supported kernel versions. For example, the ixgbe driver 3.23.2 supports Linux kernel versions 2.6.18 up to 3.18.1.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Extract the tarball and compile it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ tar -xvf ixgbe-3.23.2.tar.gz
|
||
|
|
$ cd ixgbe-3.23.2/src
|
||
|
|
$ make
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If successful, the compiled driver (ixgbe.ko) will be found in the current directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can check the information of the compiled driver by running:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ modinfo ./ixgbe.ko
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The output will show a list of available parameters of the ixgbe driver.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Step Three: Load Ixgbe Driver ###
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now you are ready to load the compiled ixgbe driver.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the stock ixgbe driver is already loaded on your system, you need to unload it first. Otherwise, you won't be able to load the new ixgbe driver.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ sudo rmmod ixgbe.ko
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then insert the compiled driver in the kernel by running:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ sudo insmod ./ixgbe.ko
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Optionally, you can supply any parameters while loading the driver.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ sudo insmod ./ixgbe.ko FdirPballoc=3 RSS=16
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To verify that the driver is loaded successfully, check the output of dmesg command.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ dmesg
|
||
|
|
|

### Step Four: Install Ixgbe Driver ###
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once you have checked that the driver is loaded successfully, go ahead and install the driver on your system.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ sudo make install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ixgbe.ko will be installed in the following location.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
/lib/modules/<kernel-version>/kernel/drivers/net/ixgbe
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At this point, the compiled driver will be loaded automatically upon boot, or you can load it by running:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ sudo modprobe ixgbe
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
