A system for generating executable code of a software program that is matched with an intermediate representation (IR) of a source code of the software program. The system comprises a processor adapted for adding one or more annotation entries, each for a location in the IR, to program data in the IR. An internal annotation entry is generated for an internal location in the IR that is not referenced by an IR symbol in the global IR symbol table of the IR. The processor is further adapted for compiling the IR to produce a binary object comprising the annotation entries, and providing the binary object to a linker or to a dynamic loader to update in an executable object an executable internal annotation entry associated with an internal annotation entry to reference run-time location in the executable object.

Matching binary code to intermediate representation code

A system for executing a software program comprising processing units and a hardware processor configured to: for at least one set of blocks, each set comprising a calling block and a target block of an intermediate representation of the software program, generate control-transfer information describing at least one value of the software program at an exit of the calling block (out-value) and at least one other value of the software program at an entry to the target block (in-value); select a set of blocks according to at least one statistical value collected while executing the software program; generate a target set of instructions using the target block and the control-transfer information; generate a calling set of instructions using the calling block and the control-transfer information; configure a calling processing unit to execute the calling set of instructions; and configure a target processing unit to execute the target set of instructions.

Dynamic software interface translation for computing in a heterogeneous environment

A system for generating executable code of a software program that is matched with an intermediate representation (IR) of a source code of the software program. The system comprises a processor adapted for adding one or more annotation entries, each for a location in the IR, to program data in the IR. An internal annotation entry is generated for an internal location in the IR that is not referenced by an IR symbol in the global IR symbol table of the IR. The processor is further adapted for compiling the IR to produce a binary object comprising the annotation entries, and providing the binary object to a linker or to a dynamic loader to update in an executable object an executable internal annotation entry associated with an internal annotation entry to reference a run-time location in the executable object.
