  • Apparatus and method for selecting program halts in an unprotected pipeline at non-interruptible points in code execution
    Publication number: 20040128597
    Abstract: In a target processor having a non-protected pipeline, the execution code is typically provided with interruptible code portions and with non-interruptible code portions. The non-interruptible code portions prevent implementation of a real time interrupt that would corrupt the code so that execution could not be resumed. A storage unit is provided that stores a signal permitting a code execution halt even during a non-interruptible code portion. In this manner, a program developer can determine the state of the processor at any point in the code execution.
