Jiangli,

This looks great! Many thanks. Very creative solution!

Question:

If you load_shared_class for the boot loader and you use the CFLH such that you
return the new_ik, where do you call ClassLoader::add_package?
(I did find a call to notify_class_loaded from fill_instance_klass which is called by create_instance_klass)

thanks,
Karen

p.s. I may have a couple more questions - I will try to get them to you tomorrow. Thanks.

So if we get here, we must not be dealing with a shared class and _cached_class_file is not shared. Otherwise we would see issues for other data being freed in InstanceKlass::release_C_heap_structures().

It does not increase runtime memory usage when JvmtiExport::should_post_class_file_load_hook() is false. The memory contains the archived class file data is only paged in when the VM needs to post CFLH.  The ‘od’ space can be shared by different processes.
