I can't advise on what's the "right" way to do this, but two suggestions:
Try it and see if non-linear portamento sounds any different (or any better)
than linear.
Consider a physical model. I'd have thought that the movements a musician
makes as s/he slides from one note to another would probably be /fairly/
linear, and that the resulting frequencies would be non-linear only because the
relation between "position" (whatever that means in context) and frequency
would be non-linear. Of course my assumptions may be wrong (I'm no musician),
but my point is to consider /some/ physical model as guide to what's "right".
