From 1f1d83ca27a3bb5c39d434074f6c335f88090bac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: SeongJae Park Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2023 19:03:35 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Docs/mm/damon/design: place execution model and data structures at the beginning The execution model and data structures section at the end of the design document is briefly explaining how DAMON works overall. Knowing that first may help better drawing the overall picture. It may also help better understanding following detailed sections. Move it to the beginning of the document.
