Avi, Every DPDK version has specific MLNX_OFED that is supports: If you will follow the instruction that I sent to you will see that: Mellanox OFED version should be 4.0-2.0.0.0 and installation should be ./mlnxofedinstall http://dpdk.org/doc/guides-17.05/nics/mlx5.html
Now, you can stay with MLNX_OFED 4.2, but you will need to reinstall it without --upstream-libs flags. Starting DPDK 17.11 Mellanox PMDs supports upstream rdma-core libs, therefore the installation is different for DPDK versions starting 17.11 Since user shouldn't be aware about this info, user should follow the exact instructions!
