+====================
+mlx4 devlink support
+====================
+
+This document describes the devlink features implemented by the ``mlx4``
+device driver.
+
+Parameters
+==========
+
+.. list-table:: Generic parameters implemented
+
+   * - Name
+     - Mode
+   * - ``internal_err_reset``
+     - driverinit, runtime
+   * - ``max_macs``
+     - driverinit
+   * - ``region_snapshot_enable``
+     - driverinit, runtime
+
+The ``mlx4`` driver also implements the following driver-specific
+parameters.
+
+.. list-table:: Driver-specific parameters implemented
+   :widths: 5 5 5 85
+
+   * - Name
+     - Type
+     - Mode
+     - Description
+   * - ``enable_64b_cqe_eqe``
+     - Boolean
+     - driverinit
+     - Enable 64 byte CQEs/EQEs, if the FW supports it.
+   * - ``enable_4k_uar``
+     - Boolean
+     - driverinit
+     - Enable using the 4k UAR.
+
+The ``mlx4`` driver supports reloading via ``DEVLINK_CMD_RELOAD``
+
+Regions
+=======
+
+The ``mlx4`` driver supports dumping the firmware PCI crspace and health
+buffer during a critical firmware issue.
+
+In case a firmware command times out, firmware getting stuck, or a non zero
+value on the catastrophic buffer, a snapshot will be taken by the driver.
+
+The ``cr-space`` region will contain the firmware PCI crspace contents. The
+``fw-health`` region will contain the device firmware's health buffer.
+Snapshots for both of these regions are taken on the same event triggers.
