CONFIG_THREAD_ANALYZER_RUN_UNLOCKED

Run analysis with interrupts unlocked

Type: bool

Help

The thread analysis takes quite a long time. Every thread it finds is analyzed word by word to find any that does not match the magic number. Normally while thread are analyzed the k_thread_foreach function is used. While this is a safe run from the thread list perspective it may lock the interrupts for a long time - long enough to disconnect when Bluetooth communication is used. Setting this flag will force thread analyzer to use the k_thread_foreach_unlocked function. This will allow the interrupts to be processed while the thread is analyzed. For the limitation of such configuration see the k_thread_foreach documentation.
