Abstract

An early boot debug system includes a first memory subsystem that includes boot instructions and a processing system that is coupled to the first memory subsystem. The processing system includes a primary processing subsystem, and a secondary processing subsystem that is coupled to the primary processing subsystem and a second memory subsystem. The secondary processing subsystem copies the boot instructions from the first memory subsystem to the second memory subsystem and executes the boot instructions from the second memory subsystem during a boot operation. The secondary processing subsystem then detects a first event during the execution of the boot instructions and, in response, generates a first event information. The secondary processing subsystem stores the first event information in the second memory subsystem to be retrieved on-demand by an administrator.
