Version 570.133.20(Linux)/572.83(Windows)

Release notes for the Release 570 family of NVIDIA® Data Center GPU Drivers for Linux and Windows.

This edition of Release Notes describes the Release 570 family of NVIDIA® Data Center GPU Drivers for Linux and Windows. NVIDIA provides these notes to describe performance improvements, bug fixes and limitations in each documented version of the driver.

1. Version Highlights

This section provides highlights of the NVIDIA Data Center GPU R570 Driver (version 570.133.20 Linux and 572.83 Windows).

For changes related to the 570 release of the NVIDIA display driver, review the file "NVIDIA_Changelog" available in the .run installer packages.

  • Linux driver release date: 04/17/2025
  • Windows driver release date: 04/17/2025

1.1. Software Versions

For this release, the software versions are as follows:

  • CUDA Toolkit 12: 12.x

    Note that starting with CUDA 11, individual components of the toolkit are versioned independently. For a full list of the individual versioned components (for example, nvcc, CUDA libraries, and so on), see the CUDA Toolkit Release Notes.

  • NVIDIA Data Center GPU Driver: 570.133.20 (Linux) / 572.83 (Windows)

  • Fabric Manager: 570.133.20 (Use nv-fabricmanager -v)

  • NVFlash: 5.791

For more information on getting started with the NVIDIA Fabric Manager on NVSwitch-based systems (for example, NVIDIA HGX A100), refer to the Fabric Manager User Guide.

1.2. Fixed Issues

  • Hypervisor is allowed to set relaxed ordering control bits so the guest GPU driver can read them and disable RO accordingly.

  • Late Vectorization is disabled when Round Stochastic (F2FPACK.RS).

  • AER logs are printed when there is an error status during XID logging.

  • A bug introduced in r570 causes GPU Accounting to access a stale pointer, resulting in a NULL pointer exception. The solution is to revert the code that leads to this exception.

1.3. Known Issues

  • This version of the GPU driver will fail to initialize on systems with Hopper GPUs subrevision = 3 and VBIOS versions older than 96.00.68.00.xx. Please ensure the system is using a VBIOS version 96.00.68.00.xx or newer before upgrading to this version of the driver.

  • When upgrading from ClosedRM to OpenRM, nvidia-smi may fail.

    Workaround

    Run the following commands:

    sudo rpm -e  nvidia-open-driver-G06-kmp-default --nodeps
    sudo zypper in nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default
    sudo  zypper install -y nvidia-open-570

Disable GPU initiated RO traffic on Ada Lovelace and older GPUs

Historically, for GPUDirect P2P over PCIe (i.e., not for NVLink where that may apply), Ada Lovelace and older GPU architectures rely on the host platform to keep the order of GPU-initiated posted PCIe transactions targeting a peer GPU, regardless of the Relaxed Ordering (RO) bit. That is due to a hardware issue.

It was later noted that some data center platforms, like those based on Intel Xeon (codenamed Sapphire Rapids) and later, do not provide that guarantee. Therefore, using GPUDirect P2P may lead to run-time silent data corruption. For example, see below for the data validation errors possibly detected by simpleP2P :

Disabling peer access...
Shutting down...
Test failed!

In GPU drivers 525 and newer, the issue is mitigated. The mitigation relies on disabling Relaxed Ordering traffic for all GPU-initiated PCIe transactions, including toward host memory. At load time, the GPU kernel-mode driver enables the mitigation based on the vendor and device IDs of the PCIe host bridge.

Note that other host platforms may be affected by the same issue, and that its occurrence may be influenced by the specific platform configuration; for example, whether the IOMMU is enabled, or whether the GPU-to-GPU traffic runs over the inter-socket bus.

More recently it has been noted that since the exact platform PCIe topology may not always be exposed to the GPU driver — for example, when running on the guest OS within a Virtual Machine (VM) — the mitigation might not be applied even when necessary. This is currently tracked as a known issue.

Workaround

When in doubt, consider forcefully disabling all GPU initiated Relaxed Ordering PCIe transactions. As an example, see the sequence below:

  1. Enable persistence mode, using the NVIDIA persistence daemon. As a fallback, use nvidia-smi -pm 1 .

  2. Disable Relaxed Ordering in the GPU PCIe config space as shown below.

  3. Run the applications.

The config space change:

# Take note of the current value:
$ setpci -s <GPU BDF> CAP_EXP+8.w
# Write back the original value after resetting bit 4 to 0
$ setpci -s <GPU BDF> CAP_EXP+8.w=<modified value>

Alternatively, that can be done in a single invocation:

$ setpci -s <GPU BDF> CAP_EXP+8.w=0x0000:0x0010

For reference, before applying that change:

$ sudo lspci -s 09:00.0 -vv
09:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 2235 (rev a1)
...
           Capabilities: [78] Express (v2) Legacy Endpoint, MSI 00

...
$ sudo setpci -s 09:00.0 CAP_EXP+8.w

After applying the suggested change:

$ sudo setpci -s 09:00.0 CAP_EXP+8.w=0x0000:0x0010
$ sudo setpci -s 09:00.0 CAP_EXP+8.w
2920
$ sudo lspci -s 09:00.0 -vv

                        MaxPayload 256 bytes, MaxReadReq 512 bytes
...

Note the RlxdOrd bit of the DevCtl register flipping its value.

2. Virtualization

To make use of GPU passthrough with virtual machines running Windows and Linux, the hardware platform must support the following features:

  • A CPU with hardware-assisted instruction set virtualization: Intel VT-x or AMD-V.

  • Platform support for I/O DMA remapping.

  • On Intel platforms, the DMA remapper technology is called Intel VT-d.

  • On AMD platforms, it is called AMD IOMMU.

Support for these features varies by processor family, product, and system, and should be verified at the manufacturer's website.

The following hypervisors are supported for virtualization:

Hypervisor Notes
Citrix XenServer Version 6.0 and later
VMware vSphere (ESX / ESXi) Version 5.1 and later.
Red Hat KVM Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 with KVM
Microsoft Hyper-V Windows Server 2019 Hyper-V Generation 2
Data Center products now support one display of up to 2560x1600 resolution.
