Abstract

A method is described that involves referring to first information from a directory table in system memory. The first information includes location information and size information of a first slice of system memory where first tracing data is to be stored. The method also includes tracking the amount of tracing data stored in the first slice of system memory and comparing the amount against the size information. The method also includes, before the first slice of system memory is filled, referring to second information from the directory table in system memory, where, the second information includes location information and size information of a second slice of system memory where second tracing data is to be stored. The first slice is not contiguous with the second slice of system memory.
