Subject: [PATCH iproute2-next] devlink: Show port state values in man page and in the help command
Date: Fri, 23 Jul 2021 17:53:59 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210723145359.282030-1-parav@nvidia.com> (raw)
Port function state can have either of the two values - active or
inactive. Update the documentation and help command for these two
values to tell user about it.
With the introduction of state, hw_addr and state are optional.
Hence mark them as optional in man page that also aligns with the help
command output.
Fixes: bdfb9f1bd61a ("devlink: Support set of port function state")
