> Hi all,
>
> can I have reviews for this change to liveness verification that fixes some unwanted asserts because
>
> - it uses decode_not_null which will assert if the given oop address is not in the heap, making the remainder of the verification useless in that case
> - if the referenced object is not in the heap, we try to get its heap region too when printing, which also fails some assertions
> - in the innermost if lots of code is duplicated in both cases
>
> The first two issues are really annoying (there is another one when the `Klass` is garbage when calling `is_obj_dead_cond`, but I'll try to improve that separately).
>
> Testing: local compilation/testing, gha
>
> Thanks,
> Thomas
