Hi,
Please review a tiny fix in GetObjectSize:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8075030
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~shade/8075030/webrev.01/
I think this is a leftover from Metaspace work.
For some reason, JvmtiEnv::GetObjectSize has a special case for
java.lang.Class: it returns the Klass* size, not the java.lang.Class
instance size. This is incorrect: Klass* is indeed referenced from
java.lang.Class.metadata field, but the instance size itself does not
depend on metadata size. This confuses Instrumentation.getObjectSize users.
Testing: new test; RBT, :hotspot_compiler, :hotspot_gc,
:hotspot_runtime, :hotspot_serviceability, :hotspot_misc,
:jdk_management, :jdk_instrument, :jdk_jmx, :jdk_jdi, :svc_tools.
Thanks,
-Aleksey
