+Sample Code
+-----------
+Sample code for testing error injection can be found here:
+https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/drm/tree/tests/amdgpu/ras_tests.c
+
+This is part of the libdrm amdgpu unit tests which cover several areas of the GPU.
+There are four sets of tests:
+
+RAS Basic Test
+
+The test verifies the RAS feature enabled status and makes sure the necessary sysfs and debugfs files
+are present.
+
+RAS Query Test
+
+This test checks the RAS availability and enablement status for each supported IP block as well as
+the error counts.
+
+RAS Inject Test
+
+This test injects errors for each IP.
+
+RAS Disable Test
+
+This test tests disabling of RAS features for each IP block.
