Summary0000730: mlx5 driver configuration is wrong - (works with centos original)
Descriptionmlx5 is configured with no ethernet support - which makes it quite hard to use ;)

It's a quite simple change, and shouldn't really effect anyone negatively - however for me it took a while to realize why the Ethernet ports was "DISABLED"

Took a while to get all the way here ;)

Thank you for your report.

I have queued the configuration adjustment ready for the next builds of both the kernel-lt and kernel-ml package sets for EL7 (and EL6).

Unfortunately I did not see your report in time to make the adjustments before creating the latest builds, which will be announced in the next hour (or so).

With the recent release of updated kernel-ml (RHEL6) [1], kernel-lt (RHEL7) [2] and kernel-ml (RHEL7) [3] packages sets this configuration adjustment has been fulfilled.

Now closing as "resolved/fixed".
