Extended SF port attributes to have optional external flag similar to
PCI PF and VF port attributes.
External atttibute is required to generate unique phys_port_name when PF number
and SF number are overlapping between two controllers similar to SR-IOV
VFs.
When a SF is for external controller an example view of external SF
port and config sequence.
On eswitch system:
$ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0033:01:00.0 mode switchdev
$ devlink port show
pci/0033:01:00.0/196607: type eth netdev enP51p1s0f0np0 flavour physical port 0 splittable false
pci/0033:01:00.0/131072: type eth netdev eth0 flavour pcipf controller 1 pfnum 0 external true splittable false
function:
hw_addr 00:00:00:00:00:00
$ devlink port add pci/0033:01:00.0 flavour pcisf pfnum 0 sfnum 77 controller 1
pci/0033:01:00.0/163840: type eth netdev eth1 flavour pcisf controller 1 pfnum 0 sfnum 77 splittable false
function:
hw_addr 00:00:00:00:00:00 state inactive opstate detached
phys_port_name construction:
$ cat /sys/class/net/eth1/phys_port_name

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.
