> Generated stubs and nmethods embed some runtime-derived constants, such as the card table base, directly into code as instruction operands. AOT code generation cannot rely on these constants being valid between the assembly run and a production run and adjusting the constants at load time is not currently supported. So, instead AOT generation must employ code which loads the constants from a table whose address can be relocated at load time.
Andrew Dinn has updated the pull request incrementally with four additional commits since the last revision:
- rename card tabel field and load it correctly
- use correct load and remove redudnant mov
- fix comment
- fix pointer deref
