Features of CoreSight Debug and Trace
The CoreSight debug and trace system offers the following features:
• Real-time program flow instruction trace through a separate PTM for each processor
• Host debugger JTAG interface
• Connections for cross-trigger and STM-to-FPGA interfaces, which enable soft IP generation of triggers
and system trace messages
• Instruction trace interface through TPIU for trace analysis tools
• Custom message injection through STM into trace stream for delivery to host debugger
• STM and PTM trace sources multiplexed into a single stream through the Trace Funnel
