This was from a s390x LPAR instance with Ubuntu 22.10 (5.19.0-37-generic)
iproute2-5.15.0

$ devlink -j port show
{"port":{"pci/0001:00:00.0/1":{"type":"eth","netdev":"ens301"},"pci/0001:00:00.0/2":{"type":"eth","netdev":"ens301d1"},"pci/0002:00:00.0/1":{"type":"eth","netdev":"ens317"},"pci/0002:00:00.0/2":{"type":"eth","netdev":"ens317d1"}}}

Sure, will do with V2.
