feat(nvidia-setup): EKS h100/gb200 → 6.17.0-1019-aws kernel + EFA 1.48.0 - #53
Conversation
…nd EFA 1.48.0 - Bump eks-h100/eks-gb200 conf defaults to kernel 6.17.0-1017-aws, EFA 1.48.0 - resolve_full_kernel: append the -64k page-size variant on arm64 so GB200 (Grace) installs 6.17.0-1017-aws-64k while H100 stays on 6.17.0-1017-aws. The old *-aws* dedup branch short-circuited the 64k logic, so GB200 was silently getting the non-64k flavor - docs: add 0.4.0 to CHANGELOG, relabel the already-tagged bcm feature as 0.3.0, and add a 0.4.x VERSION_OVERVIEW section

In `@nvidia-setup/README.md`:
- Line 22: The table entry for GB200 is ambiguous because resolve_full_kernel()
appends "-64k" for arm64; update the table row that currently shows
"6.17.0-1017-aws" to the effective resolved value "6.17.0-1017-aws-64k" (or add
a one-line footnote explaining that resolve_full_kernel() appends "-64k" for
arm64 kernels) so readers see the exact kernel string used by the GB200 support
matrix.
In `@nvidia-setup/VERSION_OVERVIEW.md`:
- Line 26: The new top-level heading "# 0.4.x" should be demoted to a level-2
heading to keep a single H1 in the file; locate the heading text "0.4.x" (and
any other version headings) and replace the leading single "#" with "##" so all
version sections use H2 while preserving the existing single H1 at the top of
VERSION_OVERVIEW.md.

…dpkg errors Bump EKS h100/gb200 kernel defaults from 6.17.0-1017-aws to 6.17.0-1019-aws across defaults, docs, and CHANGELOG. Wrap the kernel apt-get install in apt_install_with_dpkg_heal: on a dpkg error (e.g. dpkg left half-configured / "dpkg was interrupted"), run `dpkg --configure -a` and retry the install once instead of failing the step.

- Around line 40-61: Tighten the retry condition in apt_install_with_dpkg_heal
so it only triggers on the interrupted-dpkg signatures described in the comment,
not any output containing “dpkg”. Update the grep match in
apt_install_with_dpkg_heal to look for the specific failure phrases (such as
“dpkg was interrupted” or “Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code”)
before running dpkg --configure -a and retrying apt-get install.

This fixes a latent bug: the old*-aws*dedup branch short-circuited the 64k logic, so GB200 was silently resolving to the non-64k flavor.0.4.0CHANGELOG section; relabel the already-tagged bcm feature as0.3.0 - 2026-05-29(it had been left under[Unreleased]); add a0.4.xsection to VERSION_OVERVIEW.Test Plan
