When we clean all the interfaces, i.e. rescan or reload module, we need to clean eth-reps devices first, before eth devices. We will re-use the native NIC port net device instance for the Uplink representor. Changing eswitch mode will skip destroying the eth device so the net device won't be destroyed and only change the profile. Creating uplink eth-rep will initialize the representor related resources. In that sense when we destroy all devices we first need to destroy eth-rep devices so uplink eth-rep will clean all representor related resources and only then destroy the eth device which will destroy rest of the resources and the net device.

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.
