Support port function commands to enable / disable RoCE, this is used to
control the port RoCE device capabilities.
When RoCE is disabled for a function of the port, function cannot create
any RoCE specific resources (e.g GID table).
It also saves system memory utilization. For example disabling RoCE
enable a VF/SF to save 1 Mbytes of system memory per function.
Example of a PCI VF port which supports a port function:
$ devlink port show pci/0000:06:00.0/2
pci/0000:06:00.0/2: type eth netdev enp6s0pf0vf1 flavour pcivf pfnum
0 vfnum 1
function:
hw_addr 00:00:00:00:00:00 roce enabled
$ devlink port function set pci/0000:06:00.0/2 roce disable
$ devlink port show pci/0000:06:00.0/2
pci/0000:06:00.0/2: type eth netdev enp6s0pf0vf1 flavour pcivf pfnum
0 vfnum 1
function:
hw_addr 00:00:00:00:00:00 roce disabled
