Abstract
An information handling system includes a processor and an embedded controller. The processor executes operations while the information handling system is in an active power state. The embedded controller communicates with the processor. While the information handling system is in the active power state, the embedded controller detects a trigger event. In response to the trigger event, the embedded controller provides a ping command to the processor. Based on a response to the ping command not being received, the embedded controller determines a processor freeze, stores forensic data associated with the processor freeze, and stores an indication to perform a processor freeze recovery during a next boot operation.
