To enable branch folding
(PowerPC 400)
This configuration item controls emulation probe behavior when stepping
through assembly language branch instructions.
Branch Folding Configuration
Command

cf brfold=no
Agilent Technologies Emulation for the PowerPC 400/600/700
Chapter 7: Configuring the Emulation Probe
Meaning
The processor is allowed to fold branches and cr logicals
during stepping and running.
Folding a branch results in an automatic jump to the
branch location upon encountering a branch instruction.
(Default)
Note: This setting is not valid for the 401GF or for 401
core-based processors.
The processor is not allowed to fold branches and cr
logicals during stepping and running.
When a branch instruction is encountered, program
execution will stop at the branch instruction rather than
automatically evaluating the branch instruction and
jumping to the location specified.
