Subject: [PATCH 04/37] docs: networking: convert mac80211-injection.txt to ReST
Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2020 18:03:59 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <015916acf01942ca53453444aa48f70e7bfa5221.1588261997.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1588261997.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>
- add SPDX header;
- adjust title markup;
- mark code blocks and literals as such;
- mark tables as such;
- adjust identation, whitespaces and blank lines;
- add to networking/index.rst.
