4.1.4. Verify the OPAE Installation

After executing the Acceleration Stack for Runtime installer, ensure that you have successfully installed OPAE.

  • Verify the OPAE package installation:
    $ rpm -qa | grep opae

opae.admin-1.0.3-2.el8.noarch
opae-devel-1.3.7-5.el8.x86_64
opae-intel-fpga-driver-2.0.1-10.x86_64
opae-tools-1.3.7-5.el8.x86_64
opae.pac_sign-1.0.4-3.el8.x86_64
opae-tools-extra-1.3.7-5.el8.x86_64
opae-libs-1.3.7-5.el8.x86_64
  • Verify the OPAE driver installation:
    $ lsmod | grep fpga

ifpga_sec_mgr          16384  1 intel_max10
intel_fpga_fme         81920  0
intel_fpga_afu         45056  0
fpga_mgr_mod           16384  1 intel_fpga_fme
intel_fpga_pci         32768  2 intel_fpga_fme,intel_fpga_afu2
    $ lsmod | grep pac_n3000_net

pac_n3000_net          32768  1 c827_retimer
  • Verify if the Linux has enumerated the Intel FPGA PAC N3000 FPGA Management Engine Device (FME):
    $ lspci -d :0b30

61:00.0 Processing accelerators: Intel Corporation Device 0b30
    The above output provides the PCIe BDF (Bus : Device : Function) value for the Intel® FPGA PAC. Here, the 61:00.0 indicates the bus is 61, device is 00 and function is 0. The PCIe BDF value varies based on systems, therefore your values can be different. Record this value for future use.

If the verification of OPAE installation fails, refer to Troubleshooting.
