** Description changed: - Support for doca-ofed-25.10 DKMS in Ubuntu Noble + Support for ConnectX hardware through doca-ofed-25.10 DKMS in Ubuntu + Noble [ SRU Justification ] This is an effort to repackage the DKMS portion of the doca-ofed upstream package distributed by NVIDIA through a public HTTP source (e.g. https://linux.mellanox.com/public/repo/doca/). NVIDIA distributes this as a set of deb packages in a tarball at the following address: https://developer.nvidia.com/doca-downloads; this package is for the 3.2.1 version of the upstream NVIDIA package. Current Ubuntu packaging lacks support for NVIDIA Bluefield/IGX platform: this is needed as customers using NVIDIA hardware can take advantage of custom, high performance drivers directly through Canonical apt system, without the need of downloading an external tarball to be manually installed on the target machines. This helps as well any automated installation flow as, by just specifying the need for this package as an apt dependency, avoids the automation issue of finding the HTTP address of the latest version of the doca-ofed package distributed by NVIDIA and the relative scripting to manually install them. This package adds a set of kernel modules related to the NVIDIA mlnx5 hardware family (e.g. IB-capable ConnectX devices). This package is related to the https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mofed-modules-24.10/ package already accepted last year. This is the newer LTS version distributed by NVIDIA. There are no modification in repackaging, apart from a more coherent name with NVIDIA naming scheme, has been applied to the repackaging. Another difference from the 24.10 version, is a smaller list of .ko files that will be built on the target machine, following what invoking the doca-ofed target on the original package installs.
