This still does not look as though you consider how the document looks after the changes. Consider the organization. Before your changes (assume numbering starts at 1): 1. User Interface for Resource Control feature 1.1 Info directory 1.2 Resource alloc and monitor groups 1.2.1 Resource allocation rules 1.2.2 Resource monitoring rules 1.3 Notes on cache occupancy monitoring and control ... After your changes: 1. User Interface for Resource Control feature 1.1 Info directory 1.2 Resource alloc and monitor groups 1.2.1 Resource allocation rules 1.2.2 Resource monitoring rules 1.2.3 RESCTRL filesystem implementation notes 1.3 Notes on cache occupancy monitoring and control ... Note how the "RESCTRL filesystem implementation notes" is inserted as a subsection of resource and monitoring groups. Since the text describes all files in resctrl (not just resource groups) I expect that it would not be buried as a subsection of resource groups. This addition also ignores existing customs. Nowhere in the entire document will you find "RESCTRL" (well, except for the config option). > Thanks > > diff --git a/Documentation/arch/x86/resctrl.rst b/Documentation/arch/x86/resctrl.rst > index 178ab1d8f747..e990272e9a4f 100644 > --- a/Documentation/arch/x86/resctrl.rst > +++ b/Documentation/arch/x86/resctrl.rst > @@ -396,6 +396,67 @@ Resource monitoring rules > 3) Otherwise RDT events for the task will be reported in the root level > "mon_data" group. > > +RESCTRL filesystem implementation notes > +--------------------------------------- > +RESCTRL filesystem has two main components. This documentation was extracted as-is from the header file where it was next to the flags being documented.

In your previous response you noted that you did not know how to make it look like a header. I expected that you would read the manual to answer your own question but instead you just placed the title in quotes? I do not see how placing text in quotes create impression that it is a header. There is syntax to indicate section headers. Reinette
