#
# Poor man's sampling profiler for NuttX.
#
# The stack folding script was inspired by stackcollapse-gdb.pl from the FlameGraph project.
#
# Usage: Install flamegraph.pl in your PATH, define the variables below, configure your .gdbinit, run the script and go
#        have a coffee. When you're back, you'll see the flamegraph. Note that frequent calls to GDB significantly
#        interfere with normal operation of the target, which means that you can't profile real-time tasks with it.
#
# Requirements: ARM GDB with Python support
#
