JEP 167

[Staffan Larsen]

JEP 167 is done and should be in the completed state. I’ll see if I can get that updated. The relevant bug (with change set information) is: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8005849.

For seeing what instrumentation has been added, take a look at src/share/vm/trace/trace.xml which lists all instrumentation points. To enable trace output in OpenJDK, run with -XX:+EnableTracing (although running Java Flight Recorder [1] from Java Mission Control [2] provides a much better user experience).

Regarding the broken links, it looks like the http://opengrok.neojava.org is no longer what it used to be. In general, page you refer to has not been updated for several years...

Thanks,
/Staffan
