Currently, mlxsw always uses a "controlled" flood mode on all Nvidia Spectrum generations. The following patches will however introduce a possibility to run a "CFF" (for Compressed FID Flooding) mode on newer machines, if the FW supports it. Several operations will differ between how they need to be done in controlled mode vs. CFF mode. Thus the per-FID-family ops will differ between controlled and CFF, thus the FID family array as such will differ depending on whether the mode negotiated with FW is controlled or CFF. The simple approach of having several globally visible arrays for spectrum.c to statically choose from no longer works. Instead privatize all FID initialization and finalization logic, and expose it as ops instead.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
