Currently only the (more difficult) first generation E/T series is supported. Here the TCAM is only 4-way associative, and to know where the hardware will search for a FDB entry, we need to perform the same hash algorithm in order to install the entry in the correct bin. On P/Q/R/S, the TCAM should be fully associative. However the SPI command interface is different, and because I don't have access to a new-generation device at the moment, support for it is TODO.

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.
