NVIDIA MOFED Driver

The NVIDIA MOFED driver container is intended to be used as an alternative to host installation by simply deploying the container image on the host. The container will:

  • Reload Kernel modules provided by MOFED
  • Mount the container's root fs to /run/mellanox/drivers. The content of this container will be made available to be shared with host or other containers.

OFED Container provides GPU Direct use-cases functionality, which is not supported by the inbox drivers.

    -v /lib/udev:/host/lib/udev \
