Subject[PATCH 2/4] Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/usage: Update for changed initail_regions file input
Date
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.

as they want, by writing proper values to the ``init_regions`` file. Each line
of the input should represent one region in below form.::

- <target id> <start address> <end address>
+ <target idx> <start address> <end address>

-The ``target id`` should already in ``target_ids`` file, and the regions should
-be passed in address order. For example, below commands will set a couple of
-address ranges, ``1-100`` and ``100-200`` as the initial monitoring target
-region of process 42, and another couple of address ranges, ``20-40`` and
-``50-100`` as that of process 4242.::
+The ``target idx`` should be the index of the target in ``target_ids`` file,

Note that this sets the initial monitoring target regions only. In case of
virtual memory monitoring, DAMON will automatically updates the boundary of the
