Abstract
Devices and techniques for thread-based processor halting are described herein. A processor monitors control-status register (CSR) values that correspond to a halt condition for a thread. The processor then compares the halt condition to a current state of the thread and halts in response to the current state of the thread meeting the halt condition.
