[PATCH 1/2] doc: convert IR.md to reST

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

 



The doc for IR instructions was written in MarkDown format which
is quite easy and quite close to normal text.
However Markdown has a few limitations:
1) structuration via level-x headings is not nice when rendered
2) it would be nice to have the instructions in the index

So convert this in reStructuredText format as it will
directly solve problme 1) and prepare to solve problem 2)

-## Instruction
-This document briefly describes which field of struct instruction is
-used by which operation.
-
-Some of those fields are used by almost all instructions,
-some others are specific to only one or a few instructions.

-	otherwise by some others instructions.
