Subject: [PATCH v3] coresight: documentation: update sysfs section
Date: Mon, 14 May 2018 14:18:00 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180514141800.f1be30ce9d1f6ae20ca2d04c@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <a09cbbb5-0237-31f5-dc81-d816c9ec26c5@infradead.org>
- Align and show updated ls devices output from the TC2, based on
current driver
- Provide an example from an ETMv4 based system (Juno)
- Reflect changes to the way the RAM write pointer is accessed since
it got changed in commit 7d83d17795ef ("coresight: tmc: adding sysFS
management entries").

v3: address Randy Dunlap's showns->shown, corrected - and + line merging
v2: address Mathieu's comment about clarifying the sinks on the Juno
vs. TC2 platforms.
