IIRC, it is somewhere here in `BarrierSetAssembler::c2i_entry_barrier`:


void BarrierSetAssembler::c2i_entry_barrier(MacroAssembler* masm) {
...
  __ movptr(tmp1, Address(tmp1, ClassLoaderData::holder_offset()));
  __ resolve_weak_handle(tmp1, tmp2); // <--- does IN_NATIVE | ON_PHANTOM_OOP_REF inside
  __ cmpptr(tmp1, 0);
  __ jcc(Assembler::notEqual, method_live);
...
}


The code that is emitted in this method is part of C2I adapter, so it is stored in AOT cache.
