This section identifies the minimum software components required to support time synchronization server adapters:
- To identify Solarflare-designed adapters in a server, run the following
command:
# lspci -vvv -d 1924:The following command typically extracts the adapter name from the above output:
# lspci -vvv -d 1924: | egrep 'Product|Subsystem' - To identify more recent Xilinx-designed adapters in a server, run
the following
command:
# lspci -vvv -d 10ee:The following command typically extracts the adapter name from the above output:
# lspci -vvv -d 10ee: | egrep 'Product|Subsystem' - To identify the net driver and firmware versions used by the adapter run the
following command where
<interface>is the Linux interface name:# ethtool -i <interface>
| Adapter | Linux Net Driver | Controller Firmware |
|---|---|---|
| X3 series | xilinx_efct, any version | Any |
| X2 series | sfc, any version that supports adapter | Any |
