I just realized that you are storing that in the port object. I guess
we don't have to change this right now, but it would have been more
clear to store that in the partner object IMO.

You need to document those exported functions! You need to do that in
any case, but in this case it's very important, because the purpose of
these functions is not clear from the ctx.

I'm sorry for noticing that so late. Since you do need to fix that,
please see if you can also store that detail in the partner device
object instead of the port object.

thanks,
