[v2,1/5] doc: fix blank lines in modify field action description
Checks
Commit Message
The modify field action description inside "Generic flow API (rte_flow)"
documentation, lists all operations supported for a destination field.
In addition, it lists the values supported for a encapsulation level
field.
Before the lists, in both cases, miss a blank line causing them to look
regular text lines.
This patch adds the blank lines.
