+This directory contains Python scripts that can be loaded by GDB to help debug
+FreeBSD kernel crashes.
+
+Add new commands and functions in their own files. Functions with general
+utility should be added to freebsd.py. sys/tools/kernel-gdb.py is installed
+into the kernel debug directory (typically /usr/lib/debug/boot/kernel). It will
+be automatically loaded by kgdb when opening a vmcore, so if you add new GDB
+commands or functions, that script should be updated to import them, and you
+should document them here.
+
+To provide some rudimentary testing, selftest.py tries to exercise all of the
+commands and functions defined here. To use it, run selftest.sh to panic the
+system. Then, create a kernel dump or attach to the panicked kernel, and invoke
+the script with "python import selftest" in (k)gdb.
+
+Commands:
+acttrace Display a backtrace for all on-CPU threads
+
+Functions:
+$PCPU(<field>[, <cpuid>]) Display the value of a PCPU/DPCPU field
+$V(<variable>[, <vnet>]) Display the value of a VNET variable
