Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for parameter management between programs with different addressing modes are described. A request may be received from a first program with a first addressing mode in a first runtime environment for calling a second program with a second addressing mode different from the first addressing mode, where at least one parameter included in the request is for calling the second program. A parameter area may be allocated in the first runtime environment for the at least one parameter. The at least one parameter may be stored in the allocated parameter area. The second program may be invoked based at least in part on the at least one parameter in the allocated parameter area. In this manner, parameter(s) may be communicated between the first program and the second program in an easy and effective way.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, system, and computer program product for dynamic update of a computer program in memory. According to the method, one or more processors obtain incremental information, the incremental information specifying an incremental update to at least one section of at least one target function in a computer program. One or more processors identify, based on the incremental information, the at least one target function to be updated from the computer program. One or more processors generate at least one updated copy of the at least one target function by updating the at least one section of the at least one target function based on the incremental information. One or more processors update the computer program based on the at least one updated copy of the at least one target function while the computer program is running.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, computer program products for handling critical problem exceptions during an execution of an application are provided. The method comprises: detecting, by one or more processing units, an occurrence of a certain type of critical problem exception during an execution of an application, the critical problem exception resulting in a termination of the application; instructing, by one or more processing units, to call a Super Handling Routine (SHR) corresponding to the type of the critical problem exception at a pre-configured address based on a pre-determined context registered by the application, the SHR being configured to handle critical problem exceptions; and handing, by one or more processing units, control to the SHR to handle the type of the critical problem exception.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for interoperability between programs associated with different addressing modes. A caller program associated with a first addressing mode (e.g., a 32-bit program or a 64-bit program) that is executing within a parent runtime environment makes a call to an external interface to execute a target callee program that is associated with a second addressing mode different from the first addressing mode. The target callee program is then executed in a pre-initialized secondary runtime environment that executes on the same task or thread as the parent runtime environment.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, computer program product and computer system are provided. A processor receives an indication of sensitive data in one or more files. A processor updates at least one bit in the virtual address space for the one or more files indicated to have sensitive data. A processor, in response to a program accessing the one or more files, evaluates a respective virtual address for the one or more files. A processor, in response to the at least one bit in the respective virtual address for the one or more files, marks intermediate data generated by the program as sensitive data.

Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program for monitoring synchronization and aggregation are provided. The method may include receiving a plurality of metrics and identifying a plurality of metadata associated with the plurality of metrics. The method may further include calculating a hash value of the plurality of metadata based on the plurality of metrics. The method may further include detecting at least one modification to the plurality of metadata based on the hash value and updating the plurality of metrics based on the at least one modification in which the plurality of metrics are displayed in a self-adapting metric diagram.

Abstract: Determination and provision of improved representations of program flow control are provided by a method that monitors execution of binary code of a program on a computer system. The monitoring includes monitoring manipulation(s) of call stack(s) maintained by the computer system for the execution of the binary code. The method, based on the monitoring, determines function call pattern(s) and branch pattern(s) exhibited by the execution of the binary code. The method identifies, from the binary code and using the determined function call pattern(s) and branch pattern(s), function calls and branches, relations between the function calls and branches, and function and variable names. The method also provides a representation of program flow control of the program using the identified function calls and branches, relations, and function and variable names.

Abstract: Aspects of the invention include computer-implemented method that includes generating a preliminary control flow graph from memory dump data and compiler listing data in response to an exception event at a computing program. Code segments associated with each block of the preliminary control flow graph are translated to Boolean statements. Each Boolean statement is determined to be either satisfied or unsatisfied based on input values retrieved from the memory dump data. An edge property value of a first edge and a second edge of a plurality of edges of the preliminary control flow graph based are calculated based on a satisfaction of the Boolean statements. The edge property value of the first edge is compared to the edge property value of the second edge. The preliminary control flow graph is refined by deleting the first edge of the plurality of edges based at least in part on the comparison.
