[GDB] Stopping running timer(s) on a break point
Posted: Mon Mar 23, 2015 11:19 amHi all,
I was wondering whether the current behaviour of GDB break points make sense or not. I expect that all Epiphany core's functionalities to stop when hitting a a breakpoint, but the timers keep running, and hence I get an interrupt (when hitting a break point and then using ni command) because I use 5 millisecond timeslice. This is annoying to me when debugging as I don't want the timers to keep running. Are there reasonable reasons for keeping the timers running?
Best,
Hesham
