Techniques for peripheral utilization metrics collection and reporting

A method comprising:

• receiving, at a power reset manager module of an electronic device, a request to enable a peripheral of an electronic circuit;
• in response to receiving the request, storing, by the power reset manager module, in a first memory, a value to indicate that the peripheral was enabled, wherein the value is remained at a subsequent disablement of the peripheral;
• receiving an indication of a capture rate;
• receiving a time value;
• determining a current set of enabled peripherals based on the capture rate and time value;
• storing, in a second memory, the determined current set of enabled peripherals;
• copying contents of the first memory and contents of the second memory to a non-transitory storage device;
• and
• generating, based on the copied contents of the non-transitory storage device, an output indicating that the peripheral was enabled and the determined current set of enabled peripherals as a part of an update procedure.

A circuit comprising:

• a power reset manager module configured to:
• receive a request to enable a peripheral of an electronic circuit;
• set, in response to the received request, a bit value in a first register to indicate that the peripheral was enabled;
• keep the bit value set in the first register at a subsequent disablement of the peripheral;
• receive an indication of a capture rate;
• receive a time value;
• determine a current set of enabled peripherals based on the capture rate and time value;
• store, in a second register, the determined current set of enabled peripherals;
• receive a request of contents of the first register and contents of the second register;
• and
• provide the bit value of the first register and the determined current set of enabled peripherals of the second register in response to the request.
