Subject: [PATCH v2 4/6] Documentation: coresight: Turn numbered subsections into real subsections
Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2022 09:10:53 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220113091056.1297982-5-james.clark@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220113091056.1297982-1-james.clark@arm.com>
This is to allow them to be referenced in a later commit. There was
also a mistake where sysFS was introduced as section 2, but numbered
as section 1. And vice versa for 'Using perf framework'. This can't
happen with unnumbered sections.
