DEBUG TRACE STREAMS FOR CORE SYNCHRONIZATION

Abstract:

The present disclosure provides for synchronization of multi-core systems by monitoring a plurality of debug trace data streams for a redundantly operating system including a corresponding plurality of cores performing a task in parallel; in response to detecting a state difference on one debug trace data stream of the plurality of debug trace data streams relative to other debug trace data streams of the plurality of debug trace data streams: marking a given core associated with the one debug trace data stream as an affected core; and restarting the affected core.
