Facter / Bug FACT-3021
Infiniband's mac (hardware) address not provided
Issue Type: Bug Bug
Affects Versions: FACT 4.1.0
Assignee: Unassigned
Created: 2021/04/16 5:02 AM
Environment:
  • CentOS 7.4 (but I believe the distro is not relevant)
  • an Infiniband device
  • activated IPoIB
Labels: infiniband linux mac triaged
Priority: Normal Normal
Reporter: Gabriel Nagy

This clones FACT-1761 and specifically targets Facter 4

How to reproduce
> facter

The problem
Facter does not include the mac (hardware) address of infiniband interfaces in its output.

Proof of regression
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/1415

More info
The interface itself is present along with all the information provided for ethernet interfaces but just not the mac address.

As in the linked bug report, the information can still be found by using ip link or cat /sys/class/net/$DEV/address

Debug shows that Facter successfully queries the interface via ip link but does not use the address further, only the MTU.
