+@section Board settings
+In @value{GDBN} testsuite, the tests can be configured or customized in the board
+file by means of @dfn{Board Settings}.  Each setting   should be consulted by
+test cases that depend on the corresponding feature.
+
+Here are the supported board settings:
+
+@table @code
+
+@item gdb,cannot_call_functions
+The board does not support inferior call, that is, invoking inferior functions
+in @value{GDBN}.
+@item gdb,can_reverse
+The board supports reverse execution.
+@item gdb,no_hardware_watchpoints
+The board does not support hardware watchpoints.
+@item gdb,nofileio
+@value{GDBN} is unable to intercept target file operations in remote and perform
+them on the host.
+@item gdb,noinferiorio

+relative to testsuite subdirectory in build directory.
+@item in_proc_agent
+The location of in-process agent.  If in-process agent other than its default
+location is used in test, specify the location of in-process agent in
+this variable.  The location is a file name of in-process agent that can be
+either  absolute or relative to testsuite subdirectory in build directory.
+@item noargs
+@value{GDBN} does not support argument passing for inferior.
+@item no_long_long
