From 6de569f5eca01fcbf0993ae2c1a859f02990dd60 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adrien Mazarguil Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2018 18:04:58 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: add parameter for port representors Prior to this patch, all port representors detected on a given device were probed and Ethernet devices instantiated for each of them. This patch adds support for the standard "representor" parameter, which implies that port representors are not probed by default anymore, except for the list provided through device arguments.
