1 Automated Program Repair through the Evolution of Assembly Code Eric Schulte University of New Mexico 08 August / 26
2 Introduction We present a method of automated program repair through the evolution of assembly code compiled from extant software. previous work demonstrated the repair of C programs through evolution of C statements we extend previous work by operating at the level of assembly commands 2 / 26
3 Benets Benets of the assembly code level of representation include General applicable to any language which compiles to Java byte code or x86 assembly code Expressive the small scale of assembly instructions is capable of expressing repairs not possible at the C statement level Coverage the small alphabet of assembly commands and large number of commands in assembly programs provides access to a larger subset of the space of possible programs Robust the functionality of assembly programs is more robust to mutation 3 / 26
4 Comparative Performance Test Suite Runs Expected Test Suite Runs per Repair C assembly 1 ultrix-uniq ultrix-look look ultrix-dero units indent nullhttpd Repair at the Assembly level is roughly 17% slower than at the C level. 4 / 26

17 Representation and Genetic Operators Linear Genome Individuals are linear genomes of weighted assembly commands. ("main:" "pushl %ebp" "movl %esp"... ) Genetic Operators insert selects an instruction, selects a location, copies the instruction and inserts in the location delete selects an instruction and deletes it swap selects two instructions and swaps them crossover selects a crossover point for each of two individuals and exchanges all instructions after that point between the individuals 17 / 26
