TRACING CIRCUIT INCLUDING MEMORY MAPPED TRACE BUFFERS IN NODES OF A MESH NETWORK - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240320125 titled 'TRACING CIRCUIT INCLUDING MEMORY MAPPED TRACE BUFFERS IN NODES OF A MESH NETWORK
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes tracing circuits within each node circuit in a mesh network to debug development issues. These circuits store trace packets in a trace buffer, allowing access to trace information generated from detected packets.
- Tracing circuits are embedded within node circuits in a mesh network for debugging purposes.
- Trace packets are stored in a trace buffer and can be accessed using memory instructions.
- Trace information is generated from detected packets on selected ports of a node circuit.
- A filter circuit compares transaction units to trace criteria and stores matching trace information in memory-mapped entries.
- Trace packets can include transaction units or packet header information for efficient use of the trace buffer.

Original Abstract Submitted
tracing circuits are disposed within each node circuit in a mesh network to debug problems found during development. the tracing circuit disclosed includes a trace read interface for accessing trace packets stored in a trace buffer at entries that are mapped to system memory addresses. processing circuits coupled to the trace read interface may access the stored trace packets using memory instructions. the trace packets include trace information generated from packets that are detected on selected ports of a node circuit in a node of the mesh network. a filter circuit compares the transaction units to a trace criteria and stores the trace information of the matching packets in the form of trace packets in the memory-mapped entries of the trace buffer. the trace packets can include the transaction units of a packet or just packet header information for more efficient use of the trace buffer.
