Hi Everyone,
Can I have a volunteer to review the changes, which were contributed by
Brandon Mitchell at Twitter, for this CR? The webrev can be found at:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~johnc/7016955/webrev.0/
Summary:
When Tony removed the zero filling thread, the is_zeroed parameter in
the HeapRegion constructor became unused. These changes remove that
unused parameter and clean up the HeapRegion initialization code.
Testing:
SPECjvm98 and SPECjbb2005 on Linux (Brandon); GC test suite on solaris
(x86 and sparc) and jprt (JohnC)
Thanks,
JohnC
