+=========================
+netdevsim devlink support
+=========================
+
+This document describes the ``devlink`` features supported by the
+``netdevsim`` device driver.
+
+Parameters
+==========
+
+.. list-table:: Generic parameters implemented
+
+ * - Name
+ - Mode
+ * - ``max_macs``
+ - driverinit
+
+The ``netdevsim`` driver also implements the following driver-specific
+parameters.
+
+.. list-table:: Driver-specific parameters implemented
+ :widths: 5 5 5 85
+
+ * - Name
+ - Type
+ - Mode
+ - Description
+ * - ``test1``
+ - Boolean
+ - driverinit
+ - Test parameter used to show how a driver-specific devlink parameter
+ can be implemented.
+
+The ``netdevsim`` driver supports reloading via ``DEVLINK_CMD_RELOAD``
+
+Regions
+=======
+
+The ``netdevsim`` driver exposes a ``dummy`` region as an example of how the
+devlink-region interfaces work. A snapshot is taken whenever the
+``take_snapshot`` debugfs file is written to.
+
+Resources
+=========
+
+The ``netdevsim`` driver exposes resources to control the number of FIB
+entries and FIB rule entries that the driver will allow.
+
+.. code:: shell
+
+ $ devlink resource set netdevsim/netdevsim0 path /IPv4/fib size 96
+ $ devlink resource set netdevsim/netdevsim0 path /IPv4/fib-rules size 16
+ $ devlink resource set netdevsim/netdevsim0 path /IPv6/fib size 64
+ $ devlink resource set netdevsim/netdevsim0 path /IPv6/fib-rules size 16
+ $ devlink dev reload netdevsim/netdevsim0
