2020-02-27net/mlx5e: Add devlink fdb_large_groups parameterJianbo Liu
Add a devlink parameter to control the number of large groups in a autogrouped flow table. The default value is 15, and the range is between 1 and 1024. The size of each large group can be calculated according to the following formula: size = 4M / (fdb_large_groups + 1). Examples: - Set the number of large groups to 20. $ devlink dev param set pci/0000:82:00.0 name fdb_large_groups \ cmode driverinit value 20 Then run devlink reload command to apply the new value. $ devlink dev reload pci/0000:82:00.0 - Read the number of large groups in flow table. $ devlink dev param show pci/0000:82:00.0 name fdb_large_groups pci/0000:82:00.0: name fdb_large_groups type driver-specific values: cmode driverinit value 20 Signed-off-by: Jianbo Liu <jianbol@mellanox.com> Reviewed-by: Vlad Buslov <vladbu@mellanox.com> Reviewed-by: Roi Dayan <roid@mellanox.com> Acked-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@mellanox.com>
2020-01-10devlink: document info versions for each driverJacob Keller
Add the set of info versions reported by each device driver, including a description of what the version represents, and what modes (fixed, running, stored) it reports.

2020-01-10devlink: convert driver-specific files to reStructuredTextJacob Keller
Several drivers document what parameters they support in a devlink-params-*.txt file. This file is supposed to contain both the list of generic parameters implemented by the driver, as well as a list of driver-specific parameters and their descriptions. It would also be good if the driver documentation included other driver-specific implementations, such as info versions, devlink regions, and so forth. Convert all of these documentation files to reStructuredText, and rename them to just the driver name. Future changes will include other driver-specific implementations. Each file will contain a table for the generic parameters implemented, as well as a separate table for the driver-specific parameters. Future sections such as for devlink info versions will be added to these files. This avoids creating additional devlink-<feature>-<driver> files for each devlink feature, reducing clutter in the documentation folder.
