Hi all,
Please review this patch to inline the BitMap constructor. This will
allow us to efficiently use temporary, stack-allocated BitMaps.
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~stefank/8151439/webrev.00/
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8151439
A code example of why we want to inline the BitMap constructor:
void MyClass::set_bit(idx_t x) {
BitMap(&_bits, BitsPerWord).par_set_bit(x).
}
We could have used an instance of a BitMap in MyClass, but that would
store both a bm_word_t* and the size of the bitmap storage in MyClass.
Since the size is a compile-time constant, we can use the above
construct to only store a bm_word_t field in MyClass, and thereby reduce
the size of MyClass. By inlining the constructor, we get rid of the
extra overhead of creating a BitMap.
Thanks,
StefanK
