NAME
       devlink - Devlink tool
SYNOPSIS
       devlink [ OPTIONS ] OBJECT { COMMAND | help }

       OBJECT := { dev | port | monitor }

       OPTIONS := { -V[ersion] | -n[no-nice-names] } -j[json] } -p[pretty] }

OPTIONS
       -V, --Version
              Print the version of the devlink utility and exit.

       -n, --no-nice-names
              Turn off printing out nice names, for example netdevice ifnames
              instead of devlink port identification.

       -j, --json
              Generate JSON output.

       -p, --pretty
              When combined with -j generate a pretty JSON output.

   OBJECT
       dev    - devlink device.

       port   - devlink port.

       monitor
              - watch for netlink messages.

   COMMAND
       Specifies the action to perform on the object.  The set of possible
       actions depends on the object type.  As a rule, it is possible to show
       (or list ) objects, but some objects do not allow all of these opera-
       tions or have some additional commands. The help command is available
       for all objects. It prints out a list of available commands and argu-
       ment syntax conventions.
       If no command is given, some default command is assumed.  Usually it is
       list or, if the objects of this class cannot be listed, help.

EXIT STATUS
       Exit status is 0 if command was successful or a positive integer upon
       failure.
