Abstract

Configurable error handling apparatus and methods to operate the same are disclosed. An example apparatus comprises a processor core in a semiconductor package, a hardware functional block in the semiconductor package, an error handler in the semiconductor package, wherein the error handler is configurable to route error data from the hardware functional block to at least one of a first error log or a second error log and to route error signals from the hardware functional block to at least one of an operating system or firmware, and wherein the processor core configures the error handler and the hardware functional block.
