From f6ec46b7e2b227499200fb071752ea653f145f3d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Moshe Shemesh Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2026 14:17:25 +0300 Subject: devlink: print controller prefix for non-zero controller The controller prefix (c) in phys_port_name is currently restricted to external host controllers. This layout sufficed when DPUs only had a single local controller and one or more external host controllers. However, newer devices can have multiple controllers within the DPU itself, even within a single host environment. To support these topologies, allow drivers to report the controller number regardless of the "external" flag status. Any non-zero controller number will now be explicitly reported, even for single-host or local DPU controllers. Existing ports with controller=0 are unaffected. Update documentation and kdoc to clarify that a non-zero controller number does not require the external flag to be set.
