To verify that the bnx2.o driver is loaded properly, run:
lsmod | grep -i <module name>
If the driver is loaded, the output of this command shows the size of the driver in
bytes and the number of adapters configured and their names. The following
example shows the drivers loaded for the bnx2 module:
[root@test1]# lsmod | grep -i bnx2
bnx2 199238 0
bnx2fc 133775 0
libfcoe 39764 2 bnx2fc,fcoe
libfc 108727 3 bnx2fc,fcoe,libfcoe
scsi_transport_fc 55235 3 bnx2fc,fcoe,libfc
bnx2i 53488 11
cnic 86401 6 bnx2fc,bnx2i
libiscsi 47617 8
be2iscsi,bnx2i,cxgb4i,cxgb3i,libcxgbi,ib_iser,iscsi_tcp,libis
csi_tcp
scsi_transport_iscsi 53047 8
be2iscsi,bnx2i,libcxgbi,ib_iser,iscsi_tcp,libiscsi
bnx2x 1417947 0
libcrc32c 1246 1 bnx2x
mdio 4732 2 cxgb3,bnx2x
If you reboot after loading a new driver, you can use the following command to
verify that the currently loaded driver is the correct version.
modinfo bnx2
[root@test1]# lsmod | grep -i bnx2
bnx2 199238 0
Or, you can use the following command:
[root@test1]# ethtool -i eth2
driver: bnx2x
version: 1.78.07
firmware-version: bc 7.8.6
bus-info: 0000:04:00.2
if you loaded a new driver but have not yet booted, the
modinfo
command will
not show the updated driver information. Instead, you can view the logs to verify
that the proper driver is loaded and will be active upon reboot:
dmesg | grep -i "QLogic" | grep -i "bnx2"
