I > think it is about the time to introduce it. so far I see that we want to merge based on different bits, but let's see what will come from exploratory work that Sergey is doing right now. and anything that is not a device/driver feels much more lightweight to operate with (think &ice_adapter, but extended with more fields). Could you elaborate more on what you have in mind? (Or what you could imagine reusing). offtop: It will be a good hook to put resources that are shared across ports under it in devlink resources, so making this "merged device" an entity would enable higher layer over what we have with devlink xxx $pf. > > >> >> >> I've tried explaining the issues with this to HW designers here, but so >> far haven't gotten a lot of traction. >> >>>> We could make use of ice_adapter, though we'd need some logic to manage >>>> devices which have multiple clocks, as well as devices like the one >>>> Sergey is working on which tie multiple adapters together. >>> >>> Perhaps that is an answer.
