devlink: convert driver-specific files to reStructuredText Several drivers document what parameters they support in a devlink-params-*.txt file. This file is supposed to contain both the list of generic parameters implemented by the driver, as well as a list of driver-specific parameters and their descriptions. It would also be good if the driver documentation included other driver-specific implementations, such as info versions, devlink regions, and so forth. Convert all of these documentation files to reStructuredText, and rename them to just the driver name. Future changes will include other driver-specific implementations. Each file will contain a table for the generic parameters implemented, as well as a separate table for the driver-specific parameters. Future sections such as for devlink info versions will be added to these files. This avoids creating additional devlink-<feature>-<driver> files for each devlink feature, reducing clutter in the documentation folder.

net/mlx5: Lag, Control MultiPort E-Switch single FDB mode MultiPort E-Switch builds on newer hardware's capabilities and introduces a mode where a single E-Switch is used and all the vports and physical ports on the NIC are connected to it. The new mode will allow in the future a decrease in the memory used by the driver and advanced features that aren't possible today. This represents a big change in the current E-Switch implantation in mlx5. Currently, by default, each E-Switch manager manages its E-Switch. Steering rules in each E-Switch can only forward traffic to the native physical port associated with that E-Switch. While there are ways to target non-native physical ports, for example using a bond or via special TC rules. None of the ways allows a user to configure the driver to operate by default in such a mode nor can the driver decide to move to this mode by default as it's user configuration-driven right now. While MultiPort E-Switch single FDB mode is the preferred mode, older generations of ConnectX hardware couldn't support this mode so it was never implemented. Now that there is capable hardware present, start the transition to having this mode by default. Introduce a devlink parameter to control MultiPort E-Switch single FDB mode. This will allow users to select this mode on their system right now and in the future will allow the driver to move to this mode by default.

Driver will discover the device's choice during initialization. 2. full_csum: calculate L4 checksum with the pseudo-header. 3. l4_only: calculate L4 checksum without the pseudo-header. Only available when swp_l4_csum_mode_l4_only is set in mlx5_ifc_nv_sw_offload_cap_bits. Note that 'default' might be returned from the device and passed to userspace, and it might also be set during a devlink_param::reset_default() call, but attempts to set a value of default directly with param-set will be rejected. The l4_only setting is a dependency for PSP initialization in mlx5e_psp_init().

devlink: convert driver-specific files to reStructuredText Several drivers document what parameters they support in a devlink-params-*.txt file. This file is supposed to contain both the list of generic parameters implemented by the driver, as well as a list of driver-specific parameters and their descriptions. It would also be good if the driver documentation included other driver-specific implementations, such as info versions, devlink regions, and so forth. Convert all of these documentation files to reStructuredText, and rename them to just the driver name. Future changes will include other driver-specific implementations. Each file will contain a table for the generic parameters implemented, as well as a separate table for the driver-specific parameters. Future sections such as for devlink info versions will be added to these files. This avoids creating additional devlink-<feature>-<driver> files for each devlink feature, reducing clutter in the documentation folder.

net/mlx5e: Add recovery flow for tx devlink health reporter for unhealthy PTP SQ A new check for the tx devlink health reporter is introduced for determining when the PTP port timestamping SQ is considered unhealthy. If there are enough CQEs considered never to be delivered, the space that can be utilized on the SQ decreases significantly, impacting performance and usability of the SQ. The health reporter is triggered when the number of likely never delivered port timestamping CQEs that utilize the space of the PTP SQ is greater than 93.75% of the total capacity of the SQ. A devlink health reporter recover method is also provided for this specific TX error context that restarts the PTP SQ.
