Early boot debugging of hardware issues in a computing system

An apparatus comprising:

• a debug reenable indicator configured to maintain a debug reenable signal set by a user to authorize early boot debugging of a computing system;
• a debugging interface configured to receive a debugging request;
• a reenable status indicator configured to maintain a reenable status signal through a next reinitialization of the computing system;
• and
• an authorization logic coupled to the debug reenable indicator, the debugging interface, and an early boot debugging system of the computing system, the authorization logic configured to enable the early boot debugging system subsequent to a reinitialization of the computing system responsive to the setting of the debug reenable signal and the authentication of the debugging request.

An apparatus comprising:

• a debug reenable indicator configured to maintain a debug reenable signal set by a user to authorize early boot debugging of a computing system;
• a debugging interface configured to receive a debugging request;
• a reenable status indicator configured to reset the reenable status indicator to an unset status;
• and
• an authorization logic coupled to the debug reenable indicator, the debugging interface, and an early boot debugging system of the computing system, the authorization logic configured to enable the early boot debugging system subsequent to a reinitialization of the computing system responsive to the setting of the debug reenable signal and the authentication of the debugging request.
