Abstract:
A method of an aspect includes generating real time instruction trace (RTIT) packets for a first logical processor of a processor. The RTIT packets indicate a flow of software executed by the first logical processor. The RTIT packets are stored in an RTIT queue corresponding to the first logical processor. The RTIT packets are transferred from the RTIT queue to memory predominantly with firmware of the processor. Other methods, apparatus, and systems are also disclosed.
