Abstract

See full text

A compiler compiles code in a target program by reserving at least one register for use by a dynamic binary optimizer during target program execution. When the target program is subsequently executed, the dynamic binary optimizer stores needed state information in the reserved register(s), without affecting register state of the target program. Preferably, the state information in the reserved register(s) includes addressing information for a context save area, used for saving processor state when switching context from the target program to the dynamic binary optimizer.
