ФАКУЛТЕТ ЗА ИНФОРМАТИЧКИ НАУКИ И КОМПЈУТЕРСКО ИНЖЕНЕРСТВО What is a Program? What is Running? ◼ "Program" e.g. Firefox, millions of simple machine code instructions  Instructions, like grains of sand making up sculpture ◼ Firefox.exe contains bytes that are in fact the instructions in the machine code (.exe is a Windows convention)  Example: if Firefox.exe has 80 MB and every single instruction is 4B long, Firefox consists of 20 million instructions ◼ Example: to run printf(“Hello\n”), it is expanded to about 10 machine code instructions ФАКУЛТЕТ ЗА ИНФОРМАТИЧКИ НАУКИ И КОМПЈУТЕРСКО ИНЖЕНЕРСТВО #include Compiler Source code int main() gcc -o text.exe test.c { objdump -D text.exe printf(“Hello”); return 0; } Machine code 00401318 : 401318: 55 push %ebp 401319: 89 e5 mov %esp,%ebp 40131b: 83 e4 f0 and $0xfffffff0,%esp 40131e: 83 ec 10 sub $0x10,%esp 401321: e8 0a 04 00 00 call 401730 401326: c7 04 24 24 30 40 00 movl $0x403024,(%esp) 40132d: e8 3a 06 00 00 call 40196c 401332: b8 00 00 00 00 mov $0x0,%eax 401337: c9 leave 401338: c3 ret 401339: 90 nop 40133a: 90 nop 40133b: 90 nop... 0040196c : 40196c: ff 25 18 51 40 00 jmp *0x405118 401972: 90 nop 401973: 90 nop ФАКУЛТЕТ ЗА ИНФОРМАТИЧКИ НАУКИ И КОМПЈУТЕРСКО ИНЖЕНЕРСТВО Double Click a Program to Run ◼ Double click Firefox.exe to Run  The instruction bytes are copied up into RAM  The CPU is directed to start running at the first instruction (Fetch => Decode => Execute cycle) 1. Write the program RAM Source code CPU instruction 1 instruction 2 4. Start CPU running instruction 3 those instructions instruction 4... 3. Copy instructions to RAM Disk instruction 1 Compiler instruction 2 to be instruction 3 explained later instruction 4 2. Compile...
