Goals
- Simplify the writing of the CDS archive heap
- We no longer need to allocate special "archive regions" during CDS dump time. See all the removed G1 code.
- Make it possible to (in a future RFE) write the CDS archive heap using any garbage collector
Implementation - the following runs inside a safepoint so heap objects aren't moving
- Find all the objects that should be archived
- Allocate buffer using a GrowableArray
- Copy all "open" objects into the buffer
- Copy all "closed" objects into the buffer
- Make sure the heap image can be mapped with all possible G1 region sizes:
- While copying, add fillers to make sure no object spans across 1MB boundary (minimal G1 region size)
- Align the bottom of the "open" and "closed" objects at 1MB boundary
- Write the buffer to disk as the image for the archive heap
Testing: tiers 1 ~ 5
