| |
| * - Name |
| - Mode |
| - Validation |
| * - ``enable_roce`` |
| - driverinit |
| * - ``io_eq_size`` |
| - driverinit |
| - The range is between 64 and 4096. |
| * - ``event_eq_size`` |
| - driverinit |
| - The range is between 64 and 4096. |

| |
| * - Name |
| - Type |
| - Mode |
| - Description |
| * - ``flow_steering_mode`` |
| - string |
| - runtime |
| - Controls the flow steering mode of the driver |
| |
| * ``dmfs`` Device managed flow steering. In DMFS mode, the HW |
| steering entities are created and managed through firmware. |
| * ``smfs`` Software managed flow steering. In SMFS mode, the HW |
| steering entities are created and manage through the driver without |
| firmware intervention. |
| * - ``fdb_large_groups`` |
| - u32 |
| - driverinit |
| - Control the number of large groups (size > 1) in the FDB table. |
| |
| * The default value is 15, and the range is between 1 and 1024. |
| |
| The ``mlx5`` driver supports reloading via ``DEVLINK_CMD_RELOAD`` |
| |
