Ah, indeed it is. I didn't notice that. Thanks for pointing this out. It's dangerously relying on a specific offset though.

The result of the move seems to have the type of the first argument, so it would seem that if it's T_ADDRESS no decompression is going to happen and the deference is going to be problematic. Or does it work differently?

It probably should be T_METADATA? It can't be T_ADDRESS because it wouldn't be exposed in register maps for GC.

If we also use a different object alignment like 16 or 32 (-XX:ObjectAlignmentInBytes=16) the klass pointer gets decoded with the wrong shift resulting in a wrong pointer and a crash.
