    mlxsw: cmd: Introduce per-FID flooding tables · 453b6a8d
    Ido Schimmel authored
    In the newly introduced Spectrum switch ASIC, packets destined to not
    offloaded netdevs will be classified to special FIDs (vFIDs) in the
    device and flooded to the CPU port.
    
    The flooding table used is of type per-FID, which allows one to create
    different flooding domains for different vFIDs.
    
    While using a simple single-entry flood table is certainly sufficient at
    this point, we do plan to offload 802.1D bridges involving VLAN
    interfaces, thus making this change necessary.
    
    Add support for this flooding table type, by exposing the configuration
    of the number of tables from this type and their size.
