Setting Breakpoints and Barriers

TotalView has several options for setting breakpoints, including:

Source-level breakpoints

Breakpoints that are shared among all processes in multi-process programs

Assembler-level breakpoints

You can also control whether TotalView stops all processes in the control group when a single member reaches a breakpoint.
