ubuntu17.10下升级X710的i40e和i40evf驱动

确认驱动名称

#ethtool -i enp5s0f0

driver: i40e

version: 2.1.14-k

firmware-version: 5.04 0x800024db 0.0.0

expansion-rom-version:

bus-info: 0000:05:00.0

supports-statistics: yes

supports-test: yes

supports-eeprom-access: yes

supports-register-dump: yes

supports-priv-flags: yes

查找驱动所在的目录

#modinfo i40e

#mkdir /opt/software

#mv i40e-2.4.6.tar.gz /opt/software

#cd /opt/software

#tar zxvf i40e-2.4.6.tar.gz

#cd /opt/software/i40e-2.4.6/src

#make

#make install

生成的i40e.ko文件在下面的目录下

/lib/modules//updates/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e.ko

OS自带的

/lib/modules/4.13.0-16-generic/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e.ko

卸载掉OS自带的驱动

#rmmod i40e

安装新驱动

#insmod /lib/modules/4.13.0-16-generic/updates/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e.ko

#update-initramfs -u

#reboot

重启后查看是否加载了最新的驱动

#modinfo i40e

重启后确认驱动

通过生成VF让其自动载入i40evf
