ABSTRACT:
The present application describes a system and method of profiling a computer system based on a profiling state machine. The profiling state machine defines various states in which the system data can be collected for a particular application. The state machine allows system data collection regardless of timing intervals or event counters. When a state is identified for system data collection, the profiler application collects system data for the user. A profiling application driver monitors the state machine and manages the data collection based on the state machine. The profiling application driver controls the profiling configurations thus allowing a correlated data collection for timing intervals and event counter.
