Linux如何编译并安装ixgbe驱动

第一步：安装前提

安装之前，需要安装匹配的内核头文件和开发工具包。

  $ sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
  $ sudo apt-get install gcc make

第二步：编译ixgbe驱动

从最新的ixgbe驱动中下载源码。

  $ wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/files/ixgbe%20stable/3.23.2/ixgbe-3.23.2.tar.gz

如下编译ixgbe驱动。

  $ tar xvfvz ixgbe-3.23.2.tar.gz
  $ cd ixgbe-3.23.2/src
  $ make

第三步：检查ixgbe驱动

编译之后，你会看到在ixgbe-3.23.2/src目录下创建了ixgbe.ko。这就是会加载到内核之中的ixgbe驱动。

用modinfo命令检查内核模块的信息。注意你需要指定模块文件的绝对路径（比如 ./ixgbe.ko 或者 /home/xmodulo/ixgbe/ixgbe-3.23.2/src/ixgbe.ko）。输出中会显示ixgbe内核的版本。

  $ modinfo ./ixgbe.ko

第四步：测试ixgbe驱动

在测试新的模块之前，如果你内核中已存在旧版本ixgbe模块的话你需要先移除它。
