Extend PMMP (Port Module Memory Map Properties Register) with new field specifying the slot number. The purpose of this field is to enable overriding the cable/module memory map advertisement. For non-modular systems the 'module' number uniquely identifies the transceiver location. For modular systems the transceivers are identified by two indexes: - 'slot_index', specifying the slot number, where line card is located; - 'module', specifying cage transceiver within the line card.

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.
