摘要： Provided are methods, apparatus and computer programs for generating messages, for transferring data between data processing system entities such as between application programs running on data processing systems within a network, and for providing file-oriented data processing system entities with access to data and access to messaging functions. A first method generates messages for transfer within a messaging network, by creating files within one or more monitored file system directories, and using a monitoring component to identify newly created files within the monitored directories. The method involves extracting the file contents and generating a message that includes the extracted file contents, and then passing the message to a messaging manager.

摘要： A method and system for monitoring performance of a program using global metric variables to provide the support in an symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) system. A Java virtual machine (Jvm) either calls the profiler whenever bytes are allocated or provides an interface to allow the profiler to determine the value of the change in the metric for the current thread. The profiler then applies the changes to a metric for the current thread. Alternatively, per processor data areas are maintained for storing per processor metric values. Whenever a thread switch occurs or there is a request for the metric on a specified thread, an operating system kernel updates the thread level metric values with changes in the values per processor metrics.

摘要： The present invention is directed to a system and method for modifying a class file for the purpose of instrumenting without requiring separate files to correlate the instrumentation. A class file is instrumented with hooks. Each hook is injected in a method at a critical point in the code for tracking path flow, such as where the method will be entered or exited. Each hook includes an identifier to identify the method in which it is injected. Rather than using the method's name, hooks use unique major and minor codes to identify the method. Static initializers are declared for the class to output other hooks identifying the methods being instrumented. When a class is loaded, the static initializers are executed and hooks identifying the method name and the major and minor codes for each instrumented method are output to, for instance, a trace record. Then, when a method is entered or exited, the hooks identifying the entry or exit are also outputted to a trace record. When postprocessing the trace records, class and instrumentation correlation information is available for merging from trace records in the trace stream.

摘要： The value of non-discrete metric variables are synchronized at the processor level. When the profiler requests metric information for non-discrete metric variables, the operating system kernel obtains a global value for the requested metric rather than obtaining per-processor metric values for each processor. The global value may be written to trace records. By using a single global per-processor metric for all processors, a single global value of the last metric variable may be used for calculating the resources consumed on all processors since a last recorded event.

摘要： An apparatus and method for cataloging symbolic data for use in performance analysis of computer programs is provided. The apparatus and method stores symbolic data for loaded modules during or shortly after a performance trace and utilizes the stored symbolic data when performing a performance analysis at a later time. A merged symbol file is generated for a computer program, or application, under trace. The merged symbol file contains information useful in performing symbolic resolution of address information in trace files for each instance of a module. During post processing of the trace information generated by a performance trace of a computer program, symbolic information stored in the merged symbol file is compared to the trace information stored in the trace file. The correct symbolic information in the merged symbol file for loaded modules is identified based on a number of validating criteria. The correct symbolic information for the loaded modules may then be stored as an indexed database that is used to resolve address information into corresponding symbolic information when providing the trace information to a display for use by a user.

摘要： A method, system, apparatus, and computer program product is presented for improving the execution performance of an application in a data processing system. Instrumentation code is inserted into an application in which the instrumentation code generates trace data for method entry events and method exit events when the instrumented application is executed. The trace output data that is generated by the instrumentation code is then analyzed to detect patterns which indicate an inefficient coding construct in the application. The source code for the inefficient coding construct in the application associated with the detected pattern may be modified according to indications provided to an application developer. For example, a specific inefficient coding construct may be an inefficient use of a cross-language boundary, such as the interface between Java code and native code, in which data is inefficiently transferred across the interface through a local array in the native code. A suggested transform for efficient use of a cross-language boundary may include the use of a reference to a Java object within the native code.

摘要： A method and system for compensating for output overhead in trace data is provided by analyzing and compensating for the overhead associated with outputting trace information to a trace buffer or a trace file in the form of trace records. A trace record represents an occurrence of some profiling event of interest. Each trace record contains a starting timestamp representing the time at which the generation of the trace record was commenced and an ending timestamp representing the time at which the generation of the trace record was completed. In order to compute the period of execution time attributable to the application program or system being profiled, a starting timestamp of a trace record is compared with the ending timestamp of a preceding trace record, and the difference between the timestamps is directly related to the execution time of the application program or system being profiled. The time period between the timestamps in a trace record is implicitly disregarded as attributable to overhead in the generation of trace records.

摘要： A method and system for compensating for trace overhead is provided by analyzing and compensating for the temporal overhead associated with generating or outputting trace information to a trace buffer or a trace file in the form of trace records. A trace record generally represents an occurrence of a profiling event of interest. The amount of time required to generate a trace record may be determined, and the trace times retrieved from the trace records are adjusted to compensate for the amount of time required to generate those trace records. A trace overhead calibration value may be determined by computing the average time necessary to generate a trace record, or in certain cases, by computing the minimum time necessary to generate a trace record. The trace overhead calibration value is stored for subsequent use in a profiling-related process in the data processing system.

摘要： A method and apparatus for instrumenting garbage collection in a data processing system is provided. During garbage collection, a pass is made through the object heap and a plurality of heap data is retrieved and written to a trace file. The data may include the type of object, the size of the object on the heap, the class of the object, if appropriate, and a plurality of pointers, including live set pointers, and one or more tags representing attributes that may be associated with the particular object. The instrumentation may controlled to occur at a preselected phase of the garbage collection process. Additionally, a user may dynamically initiate a garbage collection instrumentation if the user determines that an event has occurred during the operation of the data processing system about which the user wishes further data.

摘要： The present invention is directed to a system and method for modifying a class file for the purpose of instrumentation, debugging, benchmarking, or making functional modifications to the class file. In addition, the present invention makes necessary changes to the components of the class file, so that the class file will pass the class file verifier before being executed. A class file is deconstructed into its components, and then selected components of the class file are modified by adding, deleting, or changing code within the components. The class file is then reconstructed, following all class file constraints imposed by the class file verifier. The present invention may also be used to modify selected code attributes of a network browser (i.e. a web browser) so that downloaded applets are saved to memory and modified before being executed by the information handling system. Class files may be modified without access to the source code, and the modified class files meet all constraints imposed by a class file verifier.
