Zusammenfassung:Error and debug information is saved during a boot process. A read only memory (ROM) debug circuitry (RDC) obtains detected errors within ROM code during a boot process. Error information is generated and stored within a first memory element. The error information includes entries. Each of the entries is associated with a respective one of the errors. Debug information is generated and stored by the RDC within a second memory element. The debug information is associated with the boot process. Further, the method includes outputting, via test circuitry of the processing system, the error information and debug information based on a testing instruction.
