RE: [cdt-debug-dev] Is there a way to turn off stack tracing ?
|
A related use case would be that if you are doing pure assembly
debugging, there is no such thing as a stack. If you try to query the
stack, GDB will happily follow the stack pointer register and give you
reams of garbage, potentially causing crashes.
