3 * hung_task_tests.c - Sample code for testing hung tasks with mutex,
4 * semaphore, etc.
5 *
6 * Usage: Load this module and read `<debugfs>/hung_task/mutex`,
7 * `<debugfs>/hung_task/semaphore`, etc., with 2 or more processes.
8 *
9 * This is for testing kernel hung_task error messages with various locking
10 * mechanisms (e.g., mutex, semaphore, etc.). Note that this may freeze
11 * your system or cause a panic. Use only for testing purposes.
