Dear community,

Is there any means in DPDK to discover relationship between
network/physical ports of the given adapter/board and
etdevs deployed in DPDK application on top of it?

For example, in Linux, there are facilities like

> /sys/class/net/<iface>/phys_port_name
> /sys/class/net/<iface>/dev_port

and

> devlink port show

Do we have something similar in DPDK?

If no, would the feature be worthwhile implementing?

Interested to hear your input on this.
Thank you.
