Hereinafter, an apparatus and method for providing a source conversion solution for architectural change will be described with reference to the drawings.

1 is a conceptual diagram of an apparatus for providing a source conversion solution for architecture change according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1 , an apparatus 100 for providing a source conversion solution for architecture change according to an embodiment of the present invention receives a program source for a specific architecture and converts it into a program source usable in another architecture. , you can extract the part to be modified and inform the user.

In particular, existing x86-based programs generally do not run on the recently emerging ARM-based programs, so there is a problem in that it is necessary to develop new ARM-based programs, which requires a lot of time and money. Accordingly, in the present invention, in order to reduce time and cost, it is intended to analyze a part that needs to be modified for conversion from an existing source and provide it to the user.

Here, ARM has the following meanings. ARM Holdings ^TM (original name of the company Advanced RISC Machines) is a company that designs and licenses RISC processors. The ARM architecture is a type of CPU design developed by ARM.

x86 or 80x86 refers to the microprocessor family developed by Intel ^TM , and is a generic term for instruction set structures used in processors compatible with them.

In more detail, it will be described later with reference to FIG. 2 .

2 is a block diagram of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The electronic device 100 according to an embodiment includes a processor 110 and a memory 120 . The processor 110 may perform at least one method described above with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2 . The memory 120 may store information related to the above-described method or may store a program in which the above-described method is implemented. The memory 120 may be a volatile memory or a non-volatile memory. The memory 120 may be referred to as a 'database' or a 'storage unit'.

The processor 110 may execute a program and control the electronic device 100 . The code of the program executed by the processor 110 may be stored in the memory 120 . The device 100 may be connected to an external device (eg, a personal computer or a network) through an input/output device (not shown) and exchange data.

In this case, the processor 110 may analyze the first source for use in the first architecture, and derive a correction instruction that needs to be corrected for use in the second architecture.

At this time, as a method of analyzing the first source, it is possible to preferentially extract a part requiring correction by first classifying whether the command is used only in the first architecture or the command used in the second architecture.

In more detail, the processor 110 may extract an incompatible instruction used only in the first architecture from the first source, and extract a compatible instruction used in the second architecture from the first source. .

Through this, it is possible to distinguish a command that must be modified from a command that only needs to be partially modified or a command that does not require modification at all.

In addition, among the above compatible instructions, there is no need to intentionally modify if the instruction is essential for a new architecture. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze whether the instruction is essential for the new architecture.

To this end, the processor 110 may distinguish the compatible instruction between an essential compatible instruction essential for the second architecture and a non-essential compatible instruction used for the second architecture, and the incompatible instruction and the non-essential compatibility command may be derived as a correction command requiring modification.

In this case, the processor 110 may generate the correction request information based on the derived correction command.

In this case, the correction request information may include a guide to the user on the basis of the correction command, a location in the source that needs to be corrected, and which command should be modified. In this regard, it will be described later.

In this case, the processor 110 may output the first source and the modification request information. By providing the user with the modification request information on which part of the first source should be modified, time and cost required for developing a program for the second architecture can be saved.

In this case, the processor 110 may receive the second source modified based on the modification request information. The second source may be a source modified by a user by reflecting the first source and the modification request information.

Thereafter, when the correction request information is generated by analyzing the difference between the second source directly modified by the user and the existing first source, accuracy can be further improved.

In this case, the processor 110 may compile for the second architecture based on the second source. This is for program execution and bug checking.

When providing modification request information to the user, the part that needs to be changed and how to change it must also be provided. To this end, the processor 110 may collect data on which instructions the existing users have modified a specific instruction from an existing source, analyze the collected data, and suggest a recommendation for a correction direction.

To this end, the processor 110 includes a first instruction included in the first source before the change and a second instruction included in the second source after the change based on the difference between the first source and the second source You can create an edit instruction set and store it in the database.

The database may store the correction instruction set of all users who use the present invention as well as the user.

At this time, the processor 110 may count the correction instruction set stored in the database based on the first instruction, and based on the counting result, if the counting number exceeds a preset threshold counting number, the corresponding The correction instruction set including the first instruction may be set as an automatic conversion instruction set.

This is because, as the number of the correction instruction set based on the first instruction increases, it means that more users have modified it, and it may also mean that it is stable to modify according to the correction instruction set based on the first instruction. Accordingly, by setting the corresponding correction instruction set as the automatic conversion instruction set, when generating correction request information later, it may be automatically converted according to the correction difficulty. In this regard, it will be described later.

In this case, the threshold counting number may be set (by the processor 110 ) to a value in which the usage amount used as the correction instruction set is more than half compared to the total usage amount of the first instruction.

In addition, the processor 110, based on the counting result, when the counting number is less than or equal to a preset threshold counting number, the correction instruction set including the first instruction may be set as a recommended conversion instruction set. Through this, the user can easily determine which command should be used to modify the first command.

In addition, the processor 110 may generate the correction request information based on the correction instruction, the automatic conversion instruction set, and the recommended conversion instruction set.

In addition, when generating the correction request information, it is more preferable for user convenience to generate the correction request information after calculating the correction difficulty level and automatically correcting the part if the correction difficulty level is easy.

To this end, in order to determine the difficulty of correction, the processor 110 may calculate the difficulty of correction based on the incompatible instruction and the compatible instruction.

Briefly, an instruction used only in the first architecture cannot be used in the second architecture, so a modification is required with a new instruction. Therefore, the more instructions used only in the first architecture, the more difficult the modification difficulty becomes, and among the instructions compatible with the second architecture, there is no need to separately modify the instructions that are essential to the second architecture. It can be judged that the difficulty is lowered.

Accordingly, the correction difficulty may be calculated by the processor 110 based on Equation 1 below.

[Equation 1]

In this case, Edit Difficulty means the modification difficulty, InCom(InCompatibility) means the number of incompatible instructions (available only in the first architecture), and Com (Compatibility) means (in both the first architecture and the second architecture) means the number of compatible instructions (available), NonEss (Non-Essential) means the number of non-essential compatible instructions, and Ess (Essential) indicates the number of essential compatible instructions (essentially used in the second architecture). can mean

Through this, it is possible to evaluate all fertilization difficulties on a uniform basis.

In addition, the processor 110, when the correction difficulty is less than or equal to a preset critical correction difficulty, automatically corrects the first instruction corresponding to the automatic conversion instruction set to a second instruction, and the incompatible instruction and the non-essential The modification request information may be generated based on a compatible command and the recommended conversion command set corresponding to the non-compatible command and the non-essential compatible command.

In addition, the processor 110, when the correction difficulty exceeds the threshold correction difficulty, the incompatible instruction and the non-essential compatible instruction and the incompatible instruction and the non-essential compatible instruction The automatic conversion instruction set corresponding to the instruction and generating the modification request information based on the recommended conversion instruction set.

That is, when the correction difficulty is low, the user's correction time can be saved by automatically executing the conversion by the automatic conversion instruction set, which was frequently converted by existing users. In addition, even if the correction difficulty is high, by providing the automatic conversion instruction set and the recommended conversion instruction set together as correction request information, the user may modify in a way that selects the second instruction corresponding to the first instruction.

In this case, the step of generating the modification request information (S203) may generate the modification request information based on the modification command, the automatic conversion command set, and the recommended conversion command set.

At this time, the step (S201) of deriving the correction instruction that needs to be corrected is a step of extracting an incompatible instruction used only in the first architecture from the first source, and is also used in the second architecture from the first source. extracting a compatible command, distinguishing the compatible command between essential compatible commands essential for the second architecture and non-essential compatible commands used for non-essentially used in the second architecture, and the incompatible commands and the non It may include deriving an essential compatible command as the correction command.

In this case, the essential compatible command may be a command that is used above a preset essential threshold ratio in the program source for the second architecture stored in the database. This is to classify the commands mostly used in the second architecture in advance because there is no need for separate modification. Therefore, the essential critical ratio is preferably set to 90%. In this case, commands other than the essential compatible commands may be set as non-essential compatible commands.

In this case, the step of generating the correction request information (S203) is a step of calculating the correction difficulty based on the incompatible command and the compatible command, and when the correction difficulty is less than or equal to a preset threshold correction difficulty, the automatic conversion command Automatically modify a first instruction corresponding to a set into a second instruction, and based on the incompatible instruction and the non-essential compatible instruction and the recommended conversion instruction set corresponding to the incompatible instruction and the non-essential compatible instruction. generating correction request information, and when the correction difficulty exceeds the threshold correction difficulty level, the incompatible command and the non-essential compatible command and the incompatible command and the non-essential compatible command The automatic conversion instruction set corresponding to the non-essential compatible command and generating the modification request information based on the recommended conversion instruction set.

At this time, the correction difficulty is calculated by the following equation,
