Abstract
An apparatus is provided comprising rewritable storage circuitry to store at least one mapping between at least one instruction identifier and a behaviour modification. Selection circuitry selects, from the rewritable storage circuitry, a selected mapping having an instruction identifier that identifies a received instruction. The received instruction causes a data processing unit to perform a default behaviour. Control circuitry causes the data processing unit to behave in accordance with the default behaviour modified by the behaviour modification.
