Abstract
A data processing apparatus has performance monitoring circuitry for generating performance monitoring data. The performance monitoring circuitry includes a first event counter for counting occurrences of a first event and a second event counter for counting occurrences of a second event. A performance monitoring interrupt signal is indicated if, when the number of first events counted by the first event counter reaches a first threshold value, the number of second events by the second event counter meets an interrupt triggering condition.
