Abstract

An apparatus to facilitate exception handling for debugging in a graphics environment is disclosed. The apparatus includes load store pipeline hardware circuitry to: in response to a page fault exception being enabled for a memory access request received from a thread of the plurality of threads, allocate a memory dependency token correlated to a scoreboard identifier (SBID) that is included with the memory access request; send, to memory fabric of the graphics processor, the memory access request comprising the memory dependency token; receive, from the memory fabric in response to the memory access request, a memory access response comprising the memory dependency token and indicating occurrence of a page fault error condition and fault details associated with the page fault error condition; and return the SBID associated with the memory access response and fault details of the page fault error condition to a debug register of the thread.
