SYNOPSIS
       devlink [ OPTIONS ] { dev|port|monitor|sb|resource|region|health|trap } { COMMAND | help }

       -n, --no-nice-names

              port identification.


       -j, --json
              Generate JSON output.


       -p, --pretty

   OBJECT
       dev    - devlink device.


       port   - devlink port.

   COMMAND
       Specifies the action to perform on the object.  The set of possible actions depends on the
       object type.  As a rule, it is possible to show (or list ) objects, but some objects do not
       allow all of these operations or have some additional commands. The help command is available
       for all objects. It prints out a list of available commands and argument syntax conventions.

       If no command is given, some default command is assumed.  Usually it is list or, if the ob‐
       jects of this class cannot be listed, help.


EXIT STATUS
       Exit status is 0 if command was successful or a positive integer upon failure.
