When mlx5_ib_add is called determine if the mlx5 core device being added is capable of dual port RoCE operation. If it is, determine whether it is a master device or a slave device using the num_vhca_ports and affiliate_nic_vport_criteria capabilities. If the device is a slave, attempt to find a master device to affiliate it with. Devices that can be affiliated will share a system image guid. If none are found place it on a list of unaffiliated ports. If a master is found bind the port to it by configuring the port affiliation in the NIC vport context. Similarly when mlx5_ib_remove is called determine the port type. If it's a slave port, unaffiliate it from the master device, otherwise just remove it from the unaffiliated port list. The IB device is registered as a multiport device, even if a 2nd port is not available for affiliation. When the 2nd port is affiliated later the GID cache must be refreshed in order to get the default GIDs for the 2nd port in the cache. Export roce_rescan_device to provide a mechanism to refresh the cache after a new port is bound. In a multiport configuration all IB object (QP, MR, PD, etc) related commands should flow through the master mlx5_core_dev, other commands must be sent to the slave port mlx5_core_mdev, an interface is provide to get the correct mdev for non IB object commands.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
