When operating in switchdev mode or using devlink to disable RoCE
only raw Ethernet QPs are allowed to be created.

When in switchdev mode this can lead to passing an invalid port number
as part of the modify qp firmware cmd and will lead to a syndrome
reported back to the user, such as:

 * mlx5_cmd_check:803:(pid 50148): RST2INIT_QP(0x502) op_mod(0x0) failed,
   status bad parameter(0x3), syndrome (0x177405).

Internal UD QP might be used to test for write combining support (even if
externally we report RoCE as disabled) check for that specific flag and
allow is specifically.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
