Subject: [PULL 22/23] docs: More precisely describe memory-backend-*::id's user
Date: Mon, 3 May 2021 10:36:22 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210503083623.139700-23-laurent@vivier.eu> (raw)

From: Robert Hoo <robert.hu@linux.intel.com>
'id' of memory-backend-{file,ram} is not only for '-numa''s reference, but
also other parameters like '-device nvdimm'.
More clearly call out this to avoid misinterpretation.
