+The library built in this directory is a host side library, not for the target.
+This library implements some functions for handling packet exchanges with GPF,
+and it will be linked by some of the programs in the rvinterf suite.
+
+It needs to be noted that the RVTMUX channel belonging to GPF was named
+RVT_L23_HEADER by TI, and as a result, I thought that these packets related
+specifically to the higher layers of the protocol stack.  But now we know that
+hierarchically speaking, GPF sits *below* L1, not above, and GPF packets should
+not be automatically associated with G23.  This realization was made fairly
+late, thus "g23" appears in a bunch of function names, and in the name of this
+library.
