[9] RFR(S): 8148490: RegisterSaver::restore_live_registers() fails to restore xmm registers on 32 bit

[Berg, Michael C]

Tobias/Vladimir:

I would change the two asserts to in the 64bit code to make the check clear:

      assert(UseAVX > 0, "up to 512bit vectors are supported with EVEX");
      assert(MaxVectorSize <= 64, "up to 512bit vectors are supported now");

As for testing with the patch applied to hotspot on a current jdk(01-29-16):

Windows sde 32-bit: skx - pass, also ran and passed part of specjvm2008
Windows 32-bit: hsw - pass, also ran and passed all of specjvm2008
Windows sde 64-bit: skx - pass, also ran and passed part of specjvm2008
Windows 64-bit: hsw -pass, also ran and passed all of specjvm2008 : caveat
Linux on skx: 32-bit - pass, also ran and passed all of specjvm2008
Linux on skx:64-bit - pass, also ran and passed all of specjvm2008

We should proceed with checkin in the changelist after the usual testing. 

Note: The above tests were done with the asserts changed on windows only. The 64bit changes are mostly cosmetic.  It's the change to the additional_frame_bytes that makes it correct, we used
equivalent constants in the stack adjustment beforehand, they had not been mapped to the movdqu for the non-vector case for a few iterations on the file.  Early on I did have that code though.

Caveat: xml.transform fails with the changelist and without, I checked this against a 12-21-15 built jdk which is 1 month old, so we have a new bug that is causing this app to fail as well (on windows for 64bit) on hsw.
I checked recent jbs traffic, the occurrence does not appear to be tracked at this time.

Tobias, please verify that 64-bit code works correctly.
About 32-bit code.

Please verify correctness of next asserts:

      assert(UseAVX > 0, "512bit vectors are supported only with EVEX");
      assert(MaxVectorSize == 64, "only 512bit vectors are supported now");

Originally we could have vectors even with only 64bit XMM registers. MaxVectorSize and UseAVX can be set on command line 
- what happens in such case? No vectorization?

May be it is done because we save whole 128bit XMM always. Still MaxVectorSize == 64 condition is strange.

Thanks,
Vladimir
