+DTN Debug
+=========
+
+DC (DCN) provides an extensive log that dumps multiple details from our
+hardware configuration. Via debugfs, you can capture those status values by
+using Display Test Next (DTN) log, which can be captured via debugfs by using::
+
+ cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/amdgpu_dm_dtn_log
+
+Since this log is updated accordingly with DCN status, you can also follow the
+change in real-time by using something like::
+
+ sudo watch -d cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/amdgpu_dm_dtn_log
+
+When reporting a bug related to DC, consider attaching this log before and
+after you reproduce the bug.
