A little puzzled. About "------- delimited", do you mean the "block" syntax?

I think "Events" in "Thread Events" means the thread start and end events, maybe not a template here. So I think it might be better to keep this namingi if I'm right, but I will use this candidate naming to show diff in the end.

I'm not good at naming so I'm glad to accept the suggestion about it.

I refer to the previous sections, it's like the template is :
<title>
        <brief one-line description>
<detailed multi-lines description>
So, how about this like:
diff --git a/Documentation/technical/api-trace2.txt b/Documentation/technical/api-trace2.txt
index 77a150b30e..38d0878d85 100644
--- a/Documentation/technical/api-trace2.txt
+++ b/Documentation/technical/api-trace2.txt
@@ -1207,6 +1207,37 @@ at offset 508.
 This example also shows that thread names are assigned in a racy manner
 as each thread starts and allocates TLS storage.

+Config (def param) Events::
+
+         Dump "interesting" config values to trace2 log.
++
+We can optionally emit configuration events, see
+`trace2.configparams` in linkgit:git-config[1] for how to enable
+it.
++
+----------------
+$ git config color.ui auto

+Then, mark the config `color.ui` as "interesting" config with
+`GIT_TRACE2_CONFIG_PARAMS`:
