Hi,
StarlingX 5.0.1 release has Mellanox OFED v5.1, and I just checked that
So if im hearing you correctly, i can try to use stx 5.0.1, which i hope has wireguard support, like 6.0 does, and then i guess it also prevents me from ever upgrading to 6.0 On Monday 28 March 2022 21:37:47 PM (+07:00), M.

It could be possible to adapt Mellanox OFED v4.9 to StarlingX 6.0, but I
am not aware of anyone who has tried this, so it is difficult for me comment with certainty.
Thank you,
Vefa

Hi,
With StarlingX 6.0, the Mellanox OFED device drivers were updated to version 5.3. According to the following link, nVidia/Mellanox has stopped supporting ConnectX-3 cards such as the one you have (MCX384A) since driver version v5.1:
https://docs.nvidia.com/networking/display/MLNXOFEDv512620/Release+Notes
As noted at the aforementioned link, Mellanox OFED v4.9 LTS continues
to support ConnectX-3 cards. StarlingX supports only the latest version of
to build stx 6.0 customized with 4.9 the Mellanox OFED drivers. Hence, StarlingX no longer ships with a version of the drivers that support ConnectX-3 cards.
Also note that ConnectX-3 cards use the mlx4 driver instead of the
mlx5 driver, as indicated here:
