+Flushing debug areas
+--------------------
+Debug areas can be flushed with piping the number of the desired
+area (0...n) to the proc file "flush". When using "-" all debug areas
+are flushed.
+
+Examples:
+
+1. Flush debug area 0:
+> echo "0" > /proc/s390dbf/dasd/flush  
+
+2. Flush all debug areas:
+> echo "-" > /proc/s390dbf/dasd/flush
