RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Peter Georg 2021-04-06 14:00:40 UTC
Created attachment 1769578 [details]
Possible patch adding 'rdma-ndd' to install

Description of problem:
dracut module "rdma" provided by rdma-core installs rdma-ndd.service to initramfs, but does not install required rdma-ndd binary.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
32.0-4


How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create initramfs using dracut including rdma module
2. Boot initramfs on system with IB/RoCE hardware
3. System tries to start rdma-ndd.service

Actual results:
systemd[1]: Starting RDMA Node Description Daemon...
systemd[2512]: rdma-ndd.service: Failed to execute command: No such file or directory
systemd[2512]: rdma-ndd.service: Failed at step EXEC spawning /usr/sbin/rdma-ndd: No such file or directory
systemd[1]: rdma-ndd.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=203/EXEC
systemd[1]: rdma-ndd.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
systemd[1]: Failed to start RDMA Node Description Daemon.

Expected results:
rdma-ndd service starts with no errors.
