摘要： In accordance with embodiments disclosed herein, there is provided systems and methods for minimizing bandwidth to compress an output stream of an instruction tracing system. For example, the method may include identifying a current instruction in a trace of the IT module as a conditional branch (CB) instruction. The method includes executing one of generating a CB packet including a byte pattern with an indication of outcome of the CB instruction, or adding an indication of the outcome of the CB instruction to the byte pattern of an existing CB packet. The method includes generating a packet when a subsequent instruction in the trace is not the CB instruction. The packet is different from the CB packet. The method also includes adding the packet into a deferred queue when the packet is deferrable. The method further includes outputting the CB packet followed by the deferred packet into a packet log.

摘要： In accordance with embodiments disclosed herein, there is provided systems and methods for tracking the mode of processing devices in an instruction tracing system. The method may include receiving an indication of a change in a current execution mode of the processing device. The method may also include determining that the current execution mode of the received indication is different than a value of an execution mode of a first execution mode (EM) packet previously-generated by the IT module. The method may also include generating, based on the determining that the current execution mode is different, a second EM packet that provides a value of the current execution mode of the processing device to indicate the change in the execution mode for an instruction in a trace generated by the IT module. The method may further include generating transactional memory (TMX) packets having n bit mode pattern in the packet log. The n is at least two and the n bit mode indicates transaction status of the TMX operation.
