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.

Interface documentation¶

The following pages describe various interfaces available through devlink in general.

  • Devlink DPIPE
  • Devlink Health
  • Devlink Info
  • Devlink Params
  • Devlink Region
  • Devlink Resource
  • Devlink Trap

Driver-specific documentation¶

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

  • bnxt devlink support
  • ionic devlink support
  • mlx4 devlink support
  • mlx5 devlink support
  • mlxsw devlink support
  • mv88e6xxx devlink support
  • netdevsim devlink support
  • nfp devlink support
  • qed devlink support
  • ti-cpsw-switch devlink support
