Estimating the term…
In an embodiment, a system is configured to replay and/or reconstruct execution events and system states in real time or substantially in real time starting from the point when execution of a target program has stopped to the point when the user desires to step through the target program's execution in order to debug the software. In an embodiment, a system is configured to efficiently collect trace data that is sufficient to reconstruct the state of a computer system at any point of time from the start of execution to the time execution was stopped. Efficient and effective debugging of the software can be performed using embodiments of the disclosed methods, systems, and devices.
A method of recording and merging trace data from a plurality of execution units in which each of the plurality of execution units executes one or more threads of execution, the method being performed by a debugger or a debugger backend executed by at least one processor, the method comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform a method of recording and merging trace data from a plurality of execution units in which each of the plurality of execution units executes one or more threads of execution, the method being performed by a debugger or a debugger backend, the method comprising:
