CONFIG_DEBUG_BFIN_NO_KERN_HWTRACE: Turn off hwtrace in CPLB handlers

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_DEBUG_BFIN_NO_KERN_HWTRACE has multiple definitions:

Turn off hwtrace in CPLB handlers found in arch/blackfin/Kconfig.debug

The configuration item CONFIG_DEBUG_BFIN_NO_KERN_HWTRACE:

• prompt: Turn off hwtrace in CPLB handlers
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_DEBUG_BFIN_HWTRACE_ON
• defined in arch/blackfin/Kconfig.debug
• found in Linux kernels: 2.6.29–2.6.39, 3.0–3.19, 4.0–4.16

Help text

The CPLB error handler contains a lot of flow changes which can quickly fill up the hardware trace buffer. When debugging crashes, the hardware trace may indicate that the problem lies in kernel space when in reality an application is buggy.

Say Y here to disable hardware tracing in some known "jumpy" pieces of code so that the trace buffer will extend further back.
