In stx 3.0 we were forced to move the Mellanox driver version forward to 5.0 to stay compatible with CentOS 7.8 kernels. The kernel had to be advanced to deal with CVEs. See the bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bug/1881429
Now the older stx 3.0 release has a newer Mellanox driver than newer stx, with is still on Mellanox version 4.7. This isn't a good situation, we should also move the Mellanox driver forward to version 5.0 in stx 4.0 and later. |
