C – Troubleshooting InfiniPath MPI Troubleshooting

Found unknown timer type type unknown frame type type

recv done: available_tids now n, but max is m (freed p) cancel recv available_tids now n, but max is m (freed %p) [n] Src lid error: sender: x, exp send: y

Frame receive from unknown sender. exp. sender = x, came from y Failed to allocate memory for eager buffer addresses: str

The following error messages probably indicate a hardware or connectivity problem:

Failed to get IB Unit LID for any unit

Failed to get our IB LID

Failed to get number of Infinipath units

In these cases you can try to reboot, then call Support.

The following indicate a mismatch between the InfiniPath interconnect hardware in use and the version for which the software was compiled:

Number of buffer avail registers is wrong; have n, expected m build mismatch, tidmap has n bits, ts_map m

These indicate a mismatch between the InfiniPath software and hardware versions. Consult Support after verifying that current drivers and libraries are installed.

The following are all informative messages about driver initialization problems. They are not necessarily fatal themselves, but sometimes indicate problems that interfere with the application. In the actual printed output all of them are prefixed with the name of the function that produced them.

Failed to get LID for unit u: str

Failed to get number of units: str

GETPORT ioctl failed: str
