+Coresight Dummy Trace Module
+=============================
+
+ :Author: Hao Zhang <quic_hazha@xxxxxxxxxxx>
+ :Date: March 2023
+
+Introduction
+---------------------------
+
+Coresight Dummy Trace Module is for the specific devices that HLOS don't
+have permission to access or configure. Such as Coresight sink EUD, some
+TPDMs etc. So there need driver to register dummy devices as Coresight
+devices. Provide Coresight API for dummy device operations, such as
+enabling and disabling dummy devices. Build the Coresight path for dummy
+sink or dummy source for debugging.
+
+Sysfs files and directories
+---------------------------
+
+Root: ``/sys/bus/coresight/devices/dummy<N>``

sysfs files are documented in Documentation/ABI/ not in random .rst
files, sorry. Please use the correct format described there, not a
random one like this :)

thanks,

greg k-h

Thanks for your review, I will correct the format in the next version of patch.

Thanks,
Hao
