Does GM2 have alphabetic reference ?
The manual does not have path_start documentation.

I need path ping pong loop animation, is there some documentation how to do it ?

Not sure where or how you looked for it, but the manual does include path_start.
https://docs2.yoyogames.com/source/_build/3_scripting/4_gml_reference/paths/path_start.html

3 ways to use / search the manual:
  1. Press F1 or click the middle mouse button when on a keyword / function and it will open the manual on that exact page without you needing to do any further work.

  2. In the IDE go to Help > Open Manual and type "path_start" into the search box.

  3. Open a browser and go to https://docs2.yoyogames.com/ and again use the search box to find it.
If you want to have a path "ping_pong" then you can set the endaction type to path_action_reverse.
All the information on the endaction constants can be found on the path_start page I linked above or on the manual page for path_endaction.
