[PATCH v2] coresight: documentation: update sysfs section

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

 



- 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").

vs. TC2 platforms.
