The devlink .info_get callback allows the driver to report detailed
version information. The following devlink versions are reported with
this initial implementation:
"fw.mgmt" -> The version of the firmware that controls PHY, link, etc
"fw.mgmt.api" -> API version of interface exposed over the AdminQ
"fw.mgmt.build" -> Unique build id of the source for the management fw
"fw.undi" -> Version of the Option ROM containing the UEFI driver
"fw.psid.api" -> Version of the NVM image format.
"fw.bundle_id" -> Unique identifier for the combined flash image.
"fw.app.name" -> The name of the active DDP package.
"fw.app" -> The version of the active DDP package.
With this, devlink dev info can report at least as much information as
is reported by ETHTOOL_GDRVINFO.
Compare the output from ethtool vs from devlink:
$ ethtool -i ens785s0
driver: ice
version: 0.8.1-k
firmware-version: 0.80 0x80002ec0 1.2581.0
expansion-rom-version:
bus-info: 0000:3b:00.0
supports-statistics: yes
supports-test: yes
supports-eeprom-access: yes
supports-register-dump: yes
supports-priv-flags: yes
$ devlink dev info pci/0000:3b:00.0
pci/0000:3b:00.0:

More pieces of information can be displayed, each version is kept
separate instead of munged together, and each version has an identifier
which comes with associated documentation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
