Description

The HAL API function alt_instruction_exception_register() registers an instruction-related exception handler. The handler argument is a pointer to the instruction-related exception handler.

You can only use this API function if you have enabled the hal.enable_instruction_related_exceptions_api setting in the board support package (BSP).

Register the instruction-related exception handler as early as possible in function main(). This allows you to handle abnormal conditions during startup.

You can register an exception handler from the alt_main() function.

A call to alt_instruction_exception_register() replaces the previously registered exception handler, if any. If handler is set to null, the instruction-related exception handler is removed.
