My initial plan was to put all parsers under their respective names, in
the similar way as I did for caps: $ rdma dev show mlx5_4 caps

I think you should have a useful summary display similar to 'ip a' and
other commands.

guid(s), subnet prefix or default gid for IB, lid/lmc, link state,
speed, mtu, pkeys protocol(s)

It will, but before I would like to see this tool be a part of
iproute2, so other people will be able to extend it in addition
to me.

Are you fine with the proposed code?

A show gid table command makes sense for rocee where it can show the
gid and the IP binding for it, rocee mode, etc..
