TRACKING DEBUG EVENTS FROM AN AUTONOMOUS MODULE THROUGH A DATA PIPELINE

Abstract:

A method for debugging a software program is provided when the software program is executed on a processor. An asynchronous debug event is detected. The asynchronous debug event is tracked through a data pipeline to the processor. In one embodiment, the asynchronous debug event is acted on only when the processor is ready to consume a data element associated with the asynchronous debug event.
