attn
Stops execution and alerts the hardware debugger.
Details
Stops execution and signals the hardware debugger, allowing entry into debug mode. This is a privileged instruction that halts the processor and alerts external debugging hardware. No condition registers or status fields are affected by the instruction itself; the processor state is frozen pending debugger intervention.
