Zusammenfassung:A method of converting an original code sequence to a modified code sequence where the original code sequence includes a procedure call that is prior to a load instruction to one of a first plurality of registers is provided. The method includes inserting the load instruction into the modified code sequence and inserting the procedure call into the modified code sequence subsequent to the load instruction. The method further includes inserting an advanced load instruction to one of a second plurality of registers into the modified code sequence prior to the procedure call and inserting a checking instruction associated with the advanced load instruction into the modified code sequence subsequent to the procedure call.
