Abstract

A system and method for a virtual processor base/virtual execution context arrangement. The disclosed arrangement utilizes chiplets comprising core logic and defined instruction sets. The chiplets are adapted to operate in conjunction with one or more active execution contexts to enable the execution of particular processes. In particular, the defined instruction sets includes a instructions for processor debugging. The system and method support the compartmentalization of such debugging instructions so as to provide enhanced processor and process security.
