Method relocating code objects and disc drive using same

1. A method comprising:

receiving a requirement to load a new code object to a first storage medium;

allocating an area of the first storage medium containing an old code object as a dynamic relocation region when there is insufficient space to load the new code object to the first storage medium;

storing the old code object to a second storage medium;

writing the new code object to the allocated dynamic relocation region;

prior to executing a task associated with the loaded new code object:

loading task control block information and stack information from the second storage medium when the new code object has been previously executed; and

generating task control block information and stack information when the new code object has not been previously executed.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein allocating of the dynamic relocation region comprises allocating the dynamic relocation region based on a priority sequence of tasks loaded to the first storage medium, wherein a task having lower priority is earlier selected as the old code object.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first storage medium comprises a random access memory and the second storage medium comprises a disc.

4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising writing task control block information and stack information related to a task associated with the old code object that has previously been performed in a maintenance cylinder region of the disc.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising storing task control block information and stack information related to a task associated with the old code object that has previously been performed in the second storage medium.

6. The method of claim 1 wherein the second storage medium is a separate nonvolatile memory from the first storage medium.

7. A device comprising:

a first storage medium;

a second storage medium;

a processor configured to:

receive a command to load a new code object to the first storage medium;

allocate an area of the first storage medium containing an old code object as a dynamic relocation region when there is insufficient space to load the new code object to the first storage medium;

store the old code object to the second storage medium;

write the new code object to the allocated dynamic relocation region; and

prior to executing a task associated with the loaded new code object:

load task control block information and stack information from the second storage medium when the new code object has been previously executed; and

generate task control block information and stack information when the new code object has not been previously executed.

8. The device of claim 7 , wherein the processor comprises:

a code object management unit configured to manage position information for code objects, task control block information, and stack information associated with performing tasks related to the code objects.

9. The device of claim 7 , wherein the processor is further configured to store information related to a task associated with the old code object that has previously been performed in the second storage medium.

10. The device of claim 7 , wherein the processor is further configured to allocate the dynamic relocation region based on a priority sequence of tasks associated with code objects loaded to the first storage medium, wherein a code object associated with a task having lower priority is earlier selected as the old code object.

11. The device of claim 7 , wherein the first storage medium comprises a random access memory and the second storage medium comprises a disc.

12. The device of claim 7 wherein the second storage medium is a separate nonvolatile memory from the first storage medium.

13. The device of claim 7 further comprising a system-on-chip which includes the first storage medium.
