Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

In an embodiment, in response to detecting a request by a program to access a network, if the request is the first time that the program requests to access the network, a subset of instructions is replaced in the program with supervisor call instructions. The supervisor call instructions cause respective interrupts of execution of the program. In response to each of the respective interrupts of execution of the program, the supervisor call instructions that caused the respective interrupts are replaced with the respective swapped instructions, and if a number of the respective interrupts of execution exceed a trap threshold, all remaining of the respective swapped instructions are stored to the program.
