From 3d1cc41432b0491a39a3185b52bfa1d0411bba10 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt Date: Fri, 30 Sep 2011 22:14:21 -0400 Subject: ktest: Add OVERRIDE keyword to DEFAULTS section The OVERRIDE keyword will allow options defined in the given DEFAULTS section to override options defined in previous DEFAULT sections. Normally, options will error if they were previous defined. The OVERRIDE keyword allows options that have been previously defined to be changed in the given section. Note, the same option can not be defined in the same DEFAULT section even if that section is marked as OVERRIDE.
