Hi,
Both the UUID data type and UUID functions pages define an index entry
for "UUID" that points to the data type section. As a result, the index
includes two identical entries linking to the UUID type docs,
which seems strange.
I believe the UUID functions page should instead define its own index
entry that links to itself. Currently, the indexterm is written as:
--------------------
<sect1 id="functions-uuid">
<title>UUID Functions</title>
<indexterm zone="datatype-uuid">
<primary>UUID</primary>
<secondary>generating</secondary>
</indexterm>
--------------------
I suspect that "datatype-uuid" is a copy-paste error and should be
"functions-uuid" to reflect the correct section. The attached patch
updates this accordingly.
Thoughts?
Regards,

Subject: [PATCH v1] doc: Fix incorrect UUID index entry in function
documentation.
Previously, the UUID functions documentation defined the "UUID" index entry
to link to the UUID data type page, even though that entry already exists there.
Instead, the UUID functions page should define its own index entry linking
to itself.
This commit updates the UUID index entry in the UUID functions documentation
to point to the correct section, improving navigation and avoiding duplication.
Back-patch to all supported versions.
