iba_packet_capture
This tool operates in cooperation with IB snoop device in the QIB driver. It
enables packet capture and subsequent dump to file, the format of which is
compatible with the Wireshark tool. Wireshark provides IB packet analysis.
The snoop_enable variable must be set to 1 (enabled) in the modprobe.conf
/ib_qib.conf file to create snoop devices and capture devices. If
snoop_enable is set to 0 (disable) then no snoop and capture devices are
created.
This tool captures packets in memory in a large ring buffer and dumps the packet
information to a file when it is instructed by a set option. The tool supports filtering
of several IB fields. The tool is primarily intended for internal Intel use.
Edit the file /etc/modprobe.d/ib_qib.conf to add snoop_enable=1 to the
options line. If the file does not exist, it can be created with the following text:
options ib_qib snoop_enable=1
