I have a SuperMicro server, and I've just installed a new SIOM (proprietary SuperMicro form factor) network card - AOC-MHIBE-m1CGM.
From the specifications, this seems to be based around the Mellanox ConnectX-4 chipset.
The SuperMicro website mentions it can do either Infiniband or 100Gbps Ethernet.
(I'm pasting screenshots, because the box doesn't have network connectivity yet, and I'm doing this over IPMI)
Anyhow, when I check ip addr listed, I don't see the 100Gbps interface come up (either on Infiniband or Ethernet):

If I check dmesg output, I do see "mlx" mentioned:

Also - if I check lspci, I don't see Mellanox mentioned at all.
Any ideas what's going on? Is there something wrong with the card, or do need to do something special to get it to work?
