I really hate it whenever I edit metaspaceShared.hpp I have to
rebuild almost every source file in HotSpot. That's due to this
usage in the popular header file oop.inline.hpp:
void oopDesc::forward_to(oop p) {
...
assert(!MetaspaceShared::is_archive_object(oop(this)) &&
!MetaspaceShared::is_archive_object(p),
"forwarding archive object");
The fix is to change the call to oopDesc::is_archive_object() which is
defined out-of-line.
With this change, the number of dependent .o files reduced from 500+ to
45.
I added metaspaceShared.inline.hpp so oopDesc::forward_to should be
as fast as before, and all other callers of
MetaspaceShared::is_archive_object
should be a little faster (probably not measurable).
I also removed a few unnecessary includes of metaspaceShared.hpp
Thanks
