Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] doc: fine-tune the documentation of the 'm' RSP packet
Date: Thu, 14 Mar 2024 14:07:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5d5b5ad695a50a196ff640e710d8d31766d2cf3d.1710420898.git.tankut.baris.aktemur@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1710420898.git.tankut.baris.aktemur@intel.com>
Revise a sentence to avoid misinterpretation. Move @cindex entries
before the text they index. Refer to trace frames regarding partial
reads.

The stub need not use any particular size or alignment when gathering
data from memory for the response; even if @var{addr} is word-aligned
and @var{length} is a multiple of the word size, the stub is free to
use byte accesses, or not. For this reason, this packet may not be
suitable for accessing memory-mapped I/O devices.
