Hi all,
This CR allows to reduce the number of generated fast native signature
handlers, based on a CPU-dependent normalization of the signatures.
This will be pushed through hs-rt as part of a series of webrevs that
implement a closed JEP which adds support for some pregenerated code,
including these handlers.
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8087133
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bdelsart/8087133/webrev.01/webrev/index.html
In the general use case, this only slightly reduces the number of
generated native handlers, leading to a negligible code size gain.
However, this sharing is more critical for our closed pregenerated code
JEP. This is why the CPU-dependent normalization, which triggers the
sharing, is currently only implemented on these closed platforms.
The webrev also fixes a minor debug issue that was discovered while
validating the change on our closed platforms.
-XX:+PrintSignatureHandlers did not work correctly because
Interpreter::result_handler(return_type) is not always executable code.
On some platforms, this is just a value used by the native wrappers
instead of code jumped to.
Regards,
Bertrand
