When splitting a port, different local ports need to be mapped on different
systems. For example:
SN3700 (local_ports_in_2x=2):
* Without split:
front panel 1 --> local port 1
front panel 2 --> local port 5
* Split to 2:
front panel 1s0 --> local port 1
front panel 1s1 --> local port 3
front panel 2 --> local port 5
SN3800 (local_ports_in_2x=1):
* Without split:
front panel 1 --> local port 1
front panel 2 --> local port 3
* Split to 2:
front panel 1s0 --> local port 1
front panel 1s1 --> local port 2
front panel 2 --> local port 3
The local_ports_in_{1x, 2x} resources provide the offsets from the base
local ports according to which the new local ports can be calculated.

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.
