The standard library Software_Generated_Periodic_Events api defines access to a facility for calling a user-supplied handler every time a certain number of instructions have been executed. This is done entirely in software, thanks to support and cooperation from the Mythryl compiler and runtime.
The Software_Generated_Periodic_Events api is implemented by the software_generated_periodic_events package.
The Software_Generated_Periodic_Events api source code is in src/lib/std/src/unsafe/software-generated-periodic-events.api.
