3686053 | Description: BlueField-2 supports a total of 120GB of PCIe memory space. When the GPU is configured to be exposed to the BlueField, it requests 32GB of space for its BAR0. The Linux 5.15 kernel also attempts to reserve space for the total number of VFs, even if they are not enabled. By default, the A100 allows 20 VFs which each need 4GB of memory space. Because of PCIe memory alignment requirements and other small devices on the bus, this additional 80GB causes PCIe resource allocation to fail. |
Workaround: Add "pci=realloc=off" to the Linux command line. This will force Linux to accept the resource allocation done by UEFI and allow enumeration to succeed. | |
Keyword: VF; kernel; resources | |
Reported in version: 4.6.0 | |

3747285 | Description: The ipmitool command to force PXE in BMC modifies both the IPMI and Redfish request settings. When Redfish is enabled in UEFI, Redfish takes priority, so all PXE boot entries are attempted and before regular boot continues. |
Workaround: Redfish must be disabled if IPMI force PXE retry behavior is expected. | |
Keyword: PXE; retry; fail | |
Reported in version: 4.6.0 | |
3745529 | Description: When rebooting the DPU while the host side is running traffic over bond, TX timeout is likely to occur. This generates a TX timeout recovery flow that may conflict with host recovery attempts from the DPU reboot. |

2407897 | Description: The host may crash when the number of PCIe devices overflows the PCIe device address. According to the PCIe spec, the device address space is 8 bits in total—device (5 bits) and function (3 bits)—which means that the total number of devices cannot be more than 256. The second PF maximum number of VFs is limited by the total number of additional PCIe devices that precedes it. By default, the preceding PCIe devices are 2 PFs + RShim DMA + 127 VFs of the first PF. This means that the maximum valid number of VFs for the second port will be 126. |
Workaround: Use the maximum allowed VFs on the 2nd PCIe PF of BlueField instead of the maximum of 127 VFs. | |

3686053 | Description: BlueField-2 supports a total of 120GB of PCIe memory space. When the GPU is configured to be exposed to the BlueField, it requests 32GB of space for its BAR0. The Linux 5.15 kernel also attempts to reserve space for the total number of VFs, even if they are not enabled. By default, the A100 allows 20 VFs which each need 4GB of memory space. Because of PCIe memory alignment requirements and other small devices on the bus, this additional 80GB causes PCIe resource allocation to fail. |
Workaround: Add "pci=realloc=off" to the Linux command line. This will force Linux to accept the resource allocation done by UEFI and allow enumeration to succeed. | |

The Linux 5.15 kernel also attempts to reserve space for the total number of VFs, even if they are not enabled. By default, the A100 allows 20 VFs which each need 4GB of memory space. Because of PCIe memory alignment requirements and other small devices on the bus, this additional 80GB causes PCIe resource allocation to fail. |
Workaround: Add "pci=realloc=off" to the Linux command line. This will force Linux to accept the resource allocation done by UEFI and allow enumeration to succeed. | |

Description: BlueField-2 supports a total of 120GB of PCIe memory space. When the GPU is configured to be exposed to the BlueField, it requests 32GB of space for its BAR0. The Linux 5.15 kernel also attempts to reserve space for the total number of VFs, even if they are not enabled. By default, the A100 allows 20 VFs which each need 4GB of memory space. Because of PCIe memory alignment requirements and other small devices on the bus, this additional 80GB causes PCIe resource allocation to fail. |
Workaround: Add "pci=realloc=off" to the Linux command line. This will force Linux to accept the resource allocation done by UEFI and allow enumeration to succeed. |

According to the PCIe spec, the device address space is 8 bits in total—device (5 bits) and function (3 bits)—which means that the total number of devices cannot be more than 256. The second PF maximum number of VFs is limited by the total number of additional PCIe devices that precedes it. By default, the preceding PCIe devices are 2 PFs + RShim DMA + 127 VFs of the first PF. This means that the maximum valid number of VFs for the second port will be 126. |
