A method and apparatus for limiting the exposure of hardware failure information is described. In one embodiment, an error reporting system of a processor may log various status and error address data into registers that retain their contents through a warm reset event. But the error reporting system of the processor may then determine whether the processor is operating in a trusted or secure mode. If not, then the processor's architectural state variables may also be logged into registers. But if the processor is operating in a trusted or secure mode, then the logging of the architectural state variables may be inhibited, or flagged as invalid.
