Switches that care about QoS might have hardware support for reserving buffer pools for individual ports or traffic classes, and configuring their sizes and thresholds. Through devlink-sb (shared buffers), this is all configurable, as well as their occupancy being viewable. Add the plumbing in DSA for these operations. Individual drivers still need to call devlink_sb_register() with the shared buffers they want to expose. A helper was not created in DSA for this purpose (unlike, say, dsa_devlink_params_register), since in my opinion it does not bring any benefit over plainly calling devlink_sb_register() directly.

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.
