[PATCH v3 3/4] Documentation: coresight: Link config options to existing documentation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In order to document the newly added branch_broadcast option, create a
table that links all of the config option formats to any existing docs.
That way when the branch broadcast docs are expanded they are accessible
from both places.
