Abstract

A method of tracing instruction execution on a processor of an integrated circuit chip in real time whilst the processor continues to execute instructions during clock cycles of the processor. The instruction execution of the processor is monitored by counting the number of successive instructions which are retired contiguously in time to form an instruction count, and counting the number of subsequent contiguous clock cycles of the processor during which no instruction is retired to form a stall count. A trace message is generated which includes the instruction count and the stall count, and the trace message is outputted.
