Expose port function commands to enable / disable RoCE, this is used to
control the port RoCE device capabilities.
When RoCE is disabled for a function of the port, function cannot create
any RoCE specific resources (e.g GID table).
It also saves system memory utilization. For example disabling RoCE enable a
VF/SF saves 1 Mbytes of system memory per function.
Example of a PCI VF port which supports function configuration:
Set RoCE of the VF's port function.
$ devlink port show pci/0000:06:00.0/2
pci/0000:06:00.0/2: type eth netdev enp6s0pf0vf1 flavour pcivf pfnum 0
vfnum 1
function:
hw_addr 00:00:00:00:00:00 roce enable
$ devlink port function set pci/0000:06:00.0/2 roce disable
$ devlink port show pci/0000:06:00.0/2
pci/0000:06:00.0/2: type eth netdev enp6s0pf0vf1 flavour pcivf pfnum 0
vfnum 1
function:
hw_addr 00:00:00:00:00:00 roce disable

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.
