Real time instruction tracing compression of RET instructions |
摘要 |
In accordance with embodiments disclosed herein, there are provided methods, systems, mechanisms, techniques, and apparatuses for implementing Real Time Instruction Tracing compression of RET instructions For example, in one embodiment, such means may include an integrated circuit having means for initiating instruction tracing for instructions of a traced application, mode, or code region, as the instructions are executed by the integrated circuit; means for generating a plurality of packets describing the instruction tracing; and means for compressing a multi-bit RET instruction (RETurn instruction) to a single bit RET instruction. |
