DESCRIPTION

37   devlink dev show - display devlink device attributes
38       DEV - specifies the devlink device to show.  If this argument is omit‐
39       ted all devices are listed.
40
41           Format is:
42             BUS_NAME/BUS_ADDRESS
43
44
45   devlink dev eswitch show - display devlink device eswitch attributes
46   devlink dev eswitch set - sets devlink device eswitch attributes
47       mode { legacy | switchdev }
48              Set eswitch mode
49
50              legacy - Legacy SRIOV
51
52              switchdev - SRIOV switchdev offloads
53
54
55       inline-mode { none | link | network | transport }
56              Some HWs need the VF driver to put part of the packet headers on
57              the TX descriptor so the e-switch can do proper matching and
58              steering.
59
60              none - None
61
62              link - L2 mode
63
64              network - L3 mode
65
66              transport - L4 mode
67
68
69       encap { disable | enable }
70              Set eswitch encapsulation support
71
72              disable - Disable encapsulation support
73
74              enable - Enable encapsulation support
75
76
77   devlink dev param set - set new value to devlink device configuration
78       parameter
79       name PARAMETER
80              Specify parameter name to set.
81
82
83       value VALUE
84              New value to set.
85
86
87       cmode { runtime | driverinit | permanent }
88              Configuration mode in which the new value is set.
89
90              runtime - Set new value while driver is running. This configura‐
91              tion mode doesn't require any reset to apply the new value.
92
93              driverinit - Set new value which will be applied during driver
94              initialization. This configuration mode requires restart driver
95              by devlink reload command to apply the new value.
96
97              permanent - New value is written to device's non-volatile mem‐
98              ory. This configuration mode requires hard reset to apply the
99              new value.
100
101
102   devlink dev param show - display devlink device supported configuration
103       parameters attributes
104       name PARAMETER Specify parameter name to show.  If this argument is
105       omitted all parameters supported by devlink devices are listed.
106
107
108   devlink dev reload - perform hot reload of the driver.
109       DEV - Specifies the devlink device to reload.
110
111
112   devlink dev info - display device information.
113       Display device information provided by the driver. This command can be
114       used to query versions of the hardware components or device components
115       which can't be updated ( fixed ) as well as device firmware which can
116       be updated. For firmware components running displays the versions of
117       firmware currently loaded into the device, while stored reports the
118       versions in device's flash.  Running and stored versions may differ
119       after flash has been updated, but before reboot.
120
121
122       DEV - specifies the devlink device to show.  If this argument is omit‐
123       ted all devices are listed.
124
125
126   devlink dev flash - write device's non-volatile memory.
127       DEV - specifies the devlink device to write to.
128
129       file PATH - Path to the file which will be written into device's flash.
130       The path needs to be relative to one of the directories searched by the
131       kernel firmware loaded, such as /lib/firmware.
132
133       component NAME - If device stores multiple firmware images in non-
134       volatile memory, this parameter may be used to indicate which firmware
135       image should be written.  The value of NAME should match the component
136       names from devlink dev info and may be driver-dependent.
