      1. Set the breakpoint as normal.
      2. In the expressions window add "ANASTOP" as the expression.
      3. The current value should be zero. Writing a one to the value field of ANASTOP will finish the programming of the HW breakpoint and the core should halt whenever the breakpoint match conditions are hit.

      Any HW breakpoints that are set while the target is running will not be triggered. Once the target is halted and then resumed, then the HW breakpoint will be "active". Sometimes (while halted) the HW breakpoint will also need to be disabled/enabled to make it "active". It seems like the triggers for the HW breakpoint can only be enabled when the target is halted. This is a regression since in the past, you did not need to halt the target to enable a HW breakpoint and have it trigger.

      There are no issues with SW breakpoints
