I have a function that's interacting with a serial NOR flash chip over SPI. But every time it executes, it seems like it's terminated early after a second or so. I noticed this because it would be printing out messages, and then all of a sudden stop and the messages from the next function starts to print. I don't even know where to begin troubleshooting this. Is there a length limit on how long a function would run? I'm using ThreadX by default and not using any thread management functions yet. I also noticed that the problem went away when I put the device under GDB. It seems like having breakpoints in the middle of the function forces it to run till completion. Any ideas why?
