Architectural state

The architectural state is the part of the CPU which holds the state of a process, this includes:

  • general purpose registers (as in AX,BX,CX... in a 80x86 processor).
  • Control Registers.
  • APIC Registers.
  • Machine State Registers.

This does not include actual computation units as an ALU for instance.
