[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/mlx5: add representor recognition on kernels 5.x

[Viacheslav Ovsiienko <viacheslavo@mellanox.com>]

The master device and VF representors were distinguished by
presence of port name, master device did not have one. The new Linux
kernels starting from 5.0 provide the port name for master device
and the implemented representor recognizing method does not work.
The new recognizing method is based on quiering the VF number,
created on the base of the device.

The IFLA_NUM_VF attribute is returned by kernel if IFLA_EXT_MASK
attribute is specified in the Netlink request message.

Also the presence of device symlink in device sysfs folder is
added to distinguish representors with sysfs based method.
