Summary:A method of tracing processor instructions includes characterizing processor state changes in accordance with simplified instruction state descriptors. The simplified instruction state descriptors are then traced with processor instructions, but processor data is not traced. L'invention concerne un procédé de suivi d'instructions de processeur, consistant à caractériser des changements d'état de processeur en fonction de descripteurs d'état d'instruction simplifiés. Ces derniers sont ensuite suivis avec des instructions de processeur, mais les données de processeur ne sont pas suivies.
