+Overwrite Mask
+==============
+
+The ``devlink-flash`` command allows optionally specifying a mask indicating
+how the device should handle subsections of flash components when updating.
+This mask indicates the set of sections which are allowed to be overwritten.
+
+.. list-table:: List of overwrite mask bits
+ :widths: 5 95
+
+ * - Name
+ - Description
+ * - ``DEVLINK_FLASH_OVERWRITE_SETTINGS``
+ - Indicates that the device should overwrite settings in the components
+ being updated with the settings found in the provided image.
+ * - ``DEVLINK_FLASH_OVERWRITE_IDENTIFIERS``
+ - Indicates that the device should overwrite identifiers in the
+ components being updated with the identifiers found in the provided
+ image. This includes MAC addresses, serial IDs, and similar device
+ identifiers.
+
+Multiple overwrite bits may be combined and requested together. If no bits
+are provided, it is expected that the device only update firmware binaries
+in the components being updated. Settings and identifiers are expected to be
+preserved across the update. A device may not support every combination and
+the driver for such a device must reject any combination which cannot be
+faithfully implemented.
