Error information is messaged out in the following format:

25.17.5.3.3 Data Trace Synchronization Messages
A data trace write/read w/ sync. message is messaged via the auxiliary port (provided data trace is enabled) 
for the following conditions (refer to Table 25-59):
• Initial data trace message upon exit from system reset or whenever data trace is enabled is a 
synchronization message.
• Upon returning from a low power state, the first data trace message is a synchronization message.
• Upon returning from debug mode, the first data trace message is a synchronization message.
• After occurrence of queue overrun (can be caused by any trace message), the first data trace 
message is a synchronization message.
• After the periodic data trace counter has expired indicating 255 without-sync data trace messages 
have occurred since the last with-sync message occurred.
• Upon assertion of the Event In (EVTI) pin, the first data trace message is a synchronization 
message if the eic bits of the dc register have enabled this feature.
• Upon data trace write/read after the previous dtm message was lost due to an attempted access to 
a secure memory location.
• Upon data trace write/read after the previous dtm message was lost due to a collision entering the 
fifo between the dtm message and any of the following: error message, or watchpoint message.
Data trace synchronization messages provide the full address (without leading zeros) and insure that 
development tools fully synchronize with data trace regularly. Synchronization messages provide a 
reference address for subsequent DTMs, in which only the unique portion of the data trace address is 
transmitted. The format for data trace write/read w/ sync. messages is as follows:
