Subject: [PATCH v11 3/3] docs/cxl: Add switch documentation
Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2022 15:51:26 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220616145126.8002-4-Jonathan.Cameron@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220616145126.8002-1-Jonathan.Cameron@huawei.com>

Switches were already introduced, but now we support them update
the documentation to provide an example in diagram and
qemu command line parameter forms.
