Linux Devlink Documentation
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
devlink is an API to expose device information and resources not directly
|
|
related to any device class, such as chip-wide/switch-ASIC-wide configuration.
|
|
|
|
Locking
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Driver facing APIs are currently transitioning to allow more explicit
|
|
locking. Drivers can use the existing ``devlink_*`` set of APIs, or
|
|
new APIs prefixed by ``devl_*``. The older APIs handle all the locking
|
|
in devlink core, but don't allow registration of most sub-objects once
|
|
the main devlink object is itself registered. The newer ``devl_*`` APIs assume
|
|
the devlink instance lock is already held. Drivers can take the instance
|
|
lock by calling ``devl_lock()``. It is also held all callbacks of devlink
|
|
netlink commands.
|
|
|
|
Drivers are encouraged to use the devlink instance lock for their own needs.

-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Each driver that implements ``devlink`` is expected to document what
|
|
parameters, info versions, and other features it supports.
