JUST-IN-TIME COMPILATION PROGRAM ANALYSIS AND OPTIMIZATION – DCC888 Fernando Magno Quintão Pereira
[email protected] The material in these slides have been taken mostly from two papers: "Dynamic Elimination of Overflow Tests in a Trace Compiler", and "Just-in- Time Value Specialization" A Toy Example #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/mman.h> int main(void) { char* program; int (*fnptr)(void); int a; program = mmap(NULL, 1000, PROT_EXEC | PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, 0, 0); program[0] = 0xB8; program[1] = 0x34; 1) What is the program on the program[2] = 0x12; left doing? program[3] = 0; program[4] = 0; 2) What is this API all about? program[5] = 0xC3; fnptr = (int (*)(void)) program; 3) What does this program a = fnptr(); have to do with a just-in- printf("Result = %X\n",a); time compiler? } A Toy Example #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/mman.h> int main(void) { char* program; int (*fnptr)(void); int a; program = mmap(NULL, 1000, PROT_EXEC | PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, 0, 0); program[0] = 0xB8; program[1] = 0x34; program[2] = 0x12; program[3] = 0; program[4] = 0; program[5] = 0xC3; fnptr = (int (*)(void)) program; a = fnptr(); printf("Result = %X\n",a); } A Toy Example #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/mman.h> int main(void) { char* program; int (*fnptr)(void); int a; program = mmap(NULL, 1000, PROT_EXEC | PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, 0, 0); program[0] = 0xB8; program[1] = 0x34; program[2] = 0x12; program[3]
