      7This document describes the devlink features implemented by the ``mlx5``
      8device driver.

     10Parameters
     11==========
     12
     13.. list-table:: Generic parameters implemented
     14
     15   * - Name
     16     - Mode
     17     - Validation
     18   * - ``enable_roce``
     19     - driverinit
     20     - Type: Boolean
     21   * - ``io_eq_size``
     22     - driverinit
     23     - The range is between 64 and 4096.
     24   * - ``event_eq_size``
     25     - driverinit
     26     - The range is between 64 and 4096.
     27   * - ``max_macs``
     28     - driverinit
     29     - The range is between 1 and 2^31. Only power of 2 values are supported.

     31The ``mlx5`` driver also implements the following driver-specific
     32parameters.

     36
     37   * - Name
     38     - Type
     39     - Mode
     40     - Description
     41   * - ``flow_steering_mode``
     42     - string
     43     - runtime
     44     - Controls the flow steering mode of the driver
     45
     46       * ``dmfs`` Device managed flow steering. In DMFS mode, the HW
     47         steering entities are created and managed through firmware.
     48       * ``smfs`` Software managed flow steering. In SMFS mode, the HW
     49         steering entities are created and manage through the driver without
     50         firmware intervention.
     51   * - ``fdb_large_groups``
     52     - u32
     53     - driverinit
     54     - Control the number of large groups (size > 1) in the FDB table.
     55
     56       * The default value is 15, and the range is between 1 and 1024.
     57
     58The ``mlx5`` driver supports reloading via ``DEVLINK_CMD_RELOAD``

     74   * - ``fw.version``
     75     - stored, running
     76     - Three digit major.minor.subminor firmware version number.
