Hello Francesco,

[for the new-comers: This is about a regression in 6.11. Details
available at https://bugs.debian.org/1086520. The TL;DR; is that on
6.10.11 opensm works as expected, while it fails to start on 6.11.7.]

It looks like the commit that is biting you is

https://git.kernel.org/linus/50660c5197f52b8137e223dc3ba8d43661179a1d

So if you bisect, try 50660c5197f52b8137e223dc3ba8d43661179a1d and its
parent 24943dcdc156cf294d97a36bf5c51168bf574c22 first.

I don't know about infiniband, but I'd say: Either your machine doesn't
have these issmX devices and opensm should cope with that, or these
issmX devices are available then
50660c5197f52b8137e223dc3ba8d43661179a1d is buggy.

> Does this ring a bell?

It doesn't for me, but maybe Mark Zhang or someone else among the new
recipients has an idea?

Best regards
