/*
 * debug-trigger listens for an external signal that the BMC is in some way unresponsive. When the
 * signal is received it triggers a crash to collect debug data and reboots the system in the hope
 * that it will recover.
 *
 * Usage: debug-trigger [SOURCE] [SINK]
 *
 * Examples:
 *  debug-trigger
 *	Set the source as stdin and the sink as stdout. Useful for testing.
 *
 *  debug-trigger /dev/serio_raw0 /proc/sysrq-trigger
 *	Open /dev/serio_raw0 as the source and /proc/sysrq-trigger as the sink.
