+ethtool reset
+-------------
+The driver supports 3 types of resets:
+
+- PF reset - resets only components associated with the given PF, does not
+ impact other PFs
+
+- CORE reset - whole adapter is affected, reset all PFs
+
+- GLOBAL reset - same as CORE but mac and phy components are also reinitialized
+
+These are mapped to ethtool reset flags as follow:
+
+- PF reset:
+
+ # ethtool --reset <ethX> irq dma filter offload
+
+- CORE reset:
+
+ # ethtool --reset <ethX> irq-shared dma-shared filter-shared offload-shared \
+ ram-shared
+
+- GLOBAL reset:
+
+ # ethtool --reset <ethX> irq-shared dma-shared filter-shared offload-shared \
+ mac-shared phy-shared ram-shared
+
+In switchdev mode you can reset a VF using port representor:
+
+ # ethtool --reset <repr> irq dma filter offload
+
