Summary:Methods and apparatus to perform event handling operations are described. In one embodiment, after an event (such as an architectural event occurs), the corresponding occurrence response (e.g., a yield event) may cause generation of an interrupt. Other embodiments are also described. L'invention concerne des procédés et un appareil destinés à effectuer des opérations de manipulation d'événements.
