Subject: [PATCH 07/11] Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/usage: link design doc for details of kdamond and context
Date: Thu, 7 Sep 2023 02:29:25 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230907022929.91361-8-sj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230907022929.91361-1-sj@kernel.org>
The explanation of kdamond and context is duplicated in the design and
the usage documents. Replace that in the usage with links to those in
the design document.
