As i've said multiple times, generic two dimensional tables. Examples
could look like:

So a table would have an optional header row. Then a number of data
rows. The number of columns is the same for each row. The number of
columns is determined at run time, but is known at the beginning of
enumerating the table. The number of data rows is not known until the
last one is enumerated.

Each cell in the row is typed. Can be a string, bool, u8, u16, u32, u64,
ifindex, MAC address, IP address, devlink port, ....

Each cell in a row can have a different type. The types of the header
row cells can be different to the types of the data cells. All data
rows have the same type information. So you can enumerate the types
once, and use them for the whole table.

The userspace tool should make its best effort to print the table,
using the type info. It might need hits from the command line, like -x
to print in hex not decimal. The second example shows this. Registers
make more sense in hex, where as statistics make more sense in
decimal. But let the user choose, so keeping the kAPI simple.  This is
intended as a debug tool. The output does not need to be highly
polished. But it needs to be a lot more readable than the current
dpipe output which prints a table as a list, not a table.

The tables can be per port, or per switch. Remember that DSA allows a
cluster of switches within one DSA instance.

Vivien, Florian, did i miss anything?
