Abstract: In an embodiment, a debug architecture for a processor/System on Chip (SoC) etc., includes a central debug unit to receive one or more functional debug signals, the central debug unit further configured to receive debug information from at least one firmware source, at least one software source, and at least one hardware source, and to output compressed debug information; a system trace module to receive the compressed debug information and to time stamp the compressed debug information; a parallel trace interface to receive the time stamped compressed debug information and to parallelize the time stamped compressed debug information; and an output unit to output the parallelized time stamped compressed debug information on one of a plurality of output paths. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a bandwidth management controller is coupled to a debug interconnect to dynamically allocate buffer space of a plurality of data buffers to hardware trace information, software trace information, and firmware trace information. The bandwidth management controller further includes a control logic to dynamically control at least one of a voltage and a frequency of the debug interconnect based at least in part on a debug activity level or a functional activity level. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
