RFR (S) 8182848: Some functions misplaced in debug.hpp

[Thomas Stüfe]

Hi Coleen,

this is a sensible cleanup!

Some small nits:

vmError.cpp:

- controlled_crash(): I would leave it either a first class global
function, maybe in vmError.hpp, or make it file scope static.

- can we move #include <signal.h> up to the general includes?

Not a part of your patch, but looking at the includes at the beginning, I
see:
  ...
  25 #include <fcntl.h>
  26 #include "precompiled.hpp"
  27 #include "code/codeCache.hpp"
  ...

which is probably wrong, I am sure fcntl.h is never picked up because of
the precompiled header line following it. So, maybe move the system headers
past the hotspot headers? I always thought that was the way we do this.

debug.hpp

While looking at debug.hpp, I saw both report_out_of_shared_space() and
report_insufficient_metaspace(). Both seem awfully specific for a general
purpose assert file. The implementation for report_insufficient_metaspace()
in particular needs to know "MaxMetaspaceSize", so I think it would be
better placed in metaspace.cpp (it is also only called from that one file,
so it does not even have to be exposed beyond metaspace.cpp).

Thank you, and Kind Regards, Thomas
