Profiling operating context and tracing program on a target processor

Abstract

Profiling operating context. At least some of the illustrative embodiments are a computer-readable medium storing a program that, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to obtain values indicative of a state of an operating context parameter during execution of a traced program on a target processor, and display an indication of a proportion of time during a trace period of the traced program that the target processor operated with the operating context parameter in a particular state.
