Compiling error when installing nvidia-peer-memory-dkms_1.2-0_all.deb

[zpcalan]

I check the issue #94 and I download MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.4-1.0.3.0-ubuntu16.04-x86_64 and upgrade the MLNX_OFED to

---- Performing Adapter Device Self Test ----
Number of CAs Detected ................. 2
PCI Device Check ....................... PASS
Kernel Arch ............................ x86_64
Host Driver Version .................... MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.4-1.0.3.0 (OFED-5.4-1.0.3): 4.4.0-131-generic
Host Driver RPM Check .................. PASS
Firmware on CA #0 HCA .................. v16.21.3002
Firmware on CA #1 HCA .................. v16.21.3002

But when installing nvidia-peer-memory-dkms_1.2-0_all.deb, the log still shows:

which is the same error when I use older version of MLNX_OFED.

Could you please help me fix this issue? Thanks!

Well, after testing multiple versions of MLNX_OFED, the version MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.5-1.0.3.2 (OFED-5.5-1.0.3) is valid for compiling nv_peer_mem while the version MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.4-1.0.3.0 is invalid.
