Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

When the nitrox_diag utility generates a tmm core file, that file might include data for only one tmm thread instead of all tmm threads.

Impact

The resulting core file might include data for only one tmm thread instead of all tmm threads, making it more difficult for F5 to diagnose reported problems with the Cavium Nitrox crypto card. Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.

Conditions

-- Running the nitrox_diag utility. -- Using devices with the Cavium Nitrox crypto card. -- The nitrox_diag utility generates a tmm core file.

Workaround

There is no workaround at this time.

Fix Information

When the nitrox_diag utility generates a tmm core file, that file now includes data for all tmm threads instead of only one.
