+====================
+mlx5 devlink support
+====================
+
+This document describes the devlink features implemented by the ``mlx5``
+device driver.
+
+Parameters
+==========
+
+.. list-table:: Generic parameters implemented
+
+   * - Name
+     - Mode
+   * - ``enable_roce``
+     - driverinit
+
+The ``mlx5`` driver also implements the following driver-specific
+parameters.

+.. list-table:: Driver-specific parameters implemented
+   :widths: 5 5 5 85
+
+   * - 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``
+
+Info versions

+     - Type
+     - Description
+   * - ``fw.psid``
+     - fixed
+     - Used to represent the board id of the device.
