Subject: [PATCH 2/4] Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/usage: Update for changed initail_regions file input
Date: Thu, 30 Dec 2021 10:07:21 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211230100723.2238-3-sj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211230100723.2238-1-sj@kernel.org>

A previous commit made init_regions debugfs file to use target index
instead of target id for specifying the target of the init regions.
This commit updates the usage document to reflect the change.

 of the input should represent one region in below form.::

-The ``target id`` should already in ``target_ids`` file, and the regions should
