Currently, a SPAN agent can only be bound to a per-port trigger where
the trigger is either an incoming packet (INGRESS) or an outgoing packet
(EGRESS) to / from the port.
The subsequent patch will introduce the concept of global mirroring
triggers. The binding / unbinding of global triggers is different than
that of per-port triggers. Such triggers also need to be enabled /
disabled on a per-{port, TC} basis and are only supported from
Spectrum-2 onwards.
Add trigger operations that allow us to abstract these differences. Only
implement the operations for per-port triggers. Next patch will
implement the operations for global triggers.

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.
