Description

Please provide the below details to ensure we understand your needs

Hello,

It seems that infiniband counters documented in https://enterprise-support.nvidia.com/s/article/understanding-mlx5-linux-counters-and-status-parameters are not visible, such as OOS. We think it's due to the usage of th devx.
Not sure it's the right place to ask for the support. But this has indeed become an obstacle for us when using NVSHMEM.

Thanks

Research direction

Review how NVSHMEM uses DEVX and compare the counters it exposes with the linked NVIDIA documentation, focusing on the missing OOS counter. Done means the required InfiniBand counters are visible and usable for diagnosing NVSHMEM issues.
