Intel Processor Trace (PT) data can be used in process core dumps. This
is done by implementing itrace code dump related hooks that configure and
output trace data to a core file. The driver will also include the list
of PT capabilities in itrace core dump notes so that the decoder can make
assumptions about the binary stream.
