When there’s a unique possible callee method, tiered optimizes profile collection by using the callee’s holder as unique possible class. That’s incorrect. For instance, with this class hierarchy:
class A {
void m() {}
}
class B extends A {
}
and this java code:
B b
b.m();
the callee’s holder is A but profiling should record B. The class itself should be tested as being final or leaf.
