Advanced binary instrumentation for debugging and performance enhancement

A method, comprising:

• identifying, by one or more hardware processors, a first software program for integration into an execution of a second software program;
• determining, by the one or more hardware processors, a plurality of segments in the first software program;
• obtaining, by the one or more hardware processors, binary code associated with the second software program;
• and
• modifying, by the one or more hardware processors, the second software program by inserting, a plurality of instrumentation points into a plurality of locations within binary code associated with the second software program, wherein each instrumentation point of the plurality of instrumentation points corresponds to one segment of the plurality of segments of the first software program, and wherein the inserting the plurality of instrumentation points causes, during an execution of the modified second software program, a first context switch from the execution of the modified second software program to an execution of a corresponding segment of the plurality of segments of the first software program when an instrumentation point of the plurality of instrumentation points is encountered at a corresponding location of the plurality of locations within the binary code associated with the second software program.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon computer readable instructions executable to cause a computer to perform operations comprising:

• identifying a first software program for integration into an execution of a second software program;
• determining a plurality of segments in the first software program;
• obtaining binary code associated with the second software program;
• and
• modifying the second software program by inserting a plurality of instrumentation points into a plurality of locations within the binary code associated with the second software program, wherein each instrumentation point of the plurality of instrumentation points corresponds to one segment of the plurality of segments of the first software program, and wherein the inserting the plurality of instrumentation points causes, during an execution of the modified second software program, a context switch from the execution of the modified second software program to an execution of a corresponding segment of the plurality of segments of the first software program when an instrumentation point of the plurality of instrumentation points is encountered at a corresponding location of the plurality of locations within the binary code associated with the second software program.
