34 This is a kgdb I/O module specifically designed to test
35 kgdb's internal functions. This kgdb I/O module is
36 intended to for the development of new kgdb stubs
37 as well as regression testing the kgdb internals.
38 See the drivers/misc/kgdbts.c for the details about
39 the tests. The most basic of this I/O module is to boot
40 a kernel boot arguments "kgdbwait kgdbts=V1F100"
