Abstract

An information carrier medium containing software that, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to receive information from circuit logic that is adapted to collect the information from caches on different cache levels, at least some of the information from caches on different cache levels associated with a common address. The software also causes the processor to selectively bypass a portion of the information specified by a user of the software and to provide non-bypassed information to the user and not said bypassed portion.
