+//! To use GDB RSP with these extensions implemented by LLDB:
+//!
+//! 1. Implement the `Target` trait and the [`Wasm`], [`HostInfo`] and
+//!    [`ProcessInfo`] traits on the target implementation for your Wasm
+//!    execution engine/target.
+//! 2. Make use of this `Arch` implementation in your target.
+//! 3. Make use of the [`report_stop_with_regs`] API to report the Wasm PC with
+//!    every stop packet.
+//! 4. Ensure that you have a build of LLDB with the Wasm target enabled. (A
+//!    binary distribution of LLDB with your operating system may not have this,
+//!    but a build from LLVM source will, by default. Once a release of
+//!    [`wasi-sdk`] with [this PR] is made, `wasi-sdk` will distribute such a
+//!    build for all major platforms.)
+//! 5. Start up LLDB and attach it to an endpoint served by `gdbstub` with this
+//!    target:
+//!
+//!        $ .../bin/lldb
+//!        (lldb) process connect --plugin wasm connect://localhost:1234
+//!
+//!    then ordinary debugging with breakpoints, step/continue, and state
+//! examination should work.
+//!
+//! See [Wasmtime] for an example of the use of this crate.
