Hi Dan,
Overall I must say this looks very nice, can’t wait to use it! (Also a disclaimer: not a reviewer, and have not looked at the gc or jmvti specific changes nor the tests (yet)).
Didn’t spot any real issues, just a few small efficiency related things:
src/hotspot/share/runtime/biasedLocking.cpp
217 for (JavaThread* cur_thread = Threads::first(); cur_thread != NULL; cur_thread = cur_thread->next()) {
218 if (cur_thread == biased_thread) {
219 thread_is_alive = true;
This loop could be replaced with:
ThreadsListHandle tlh;
thread_is_alive = tlh.includes(biased_thread);
src/hotspot/share/runtime/memprofiler.cpp
55-56 grabs the Threads_lock, shouldn’t be needed anymore.
src/hotspot/share/runtime/thread.inline.hpp
198 TerminatedTypes l_terminated = (TerminatedTypes)
199 OrderAccess::load_acquire((volatile jint *) &_terminated);
200 return check_is_terminated(_terminated);
The variable used in the return statement was intended to be l_terminated I guess?
The following are more minor suggestions / comments:
src/hotspot/share/runtime/thread.cpp
3432 // operations over all threads. It is protected by its own Mutex
3433 // lock, which is also used in other contexts to protect thread
Should this comment perhaps be revised to mention SMR?
4745 hash_table_size--;
4746 hash_table_size |= hash_table_size >> 1;
...
This calculation is repeated around line 4922 as well, perhaps put it in a function?
4828 // If someone set a handshake on us just as we entered exit path, we simple cancel it.
Perhaps something like “.. entered the exit path, we simply cancel it.”
src/hotspot/share/runtime/thread.hpp
1179 bool on_thread_list() { return _on_thread_list; }
1180 void set_on_thread_list() { _on_thread_list = true; }
1181
1182 // thread has called JavaThread::exit() or is terminated
1183 bool is_exiting() const;
1184 // thread is terminated (no longer on the threads list); we compare
1185 // against the two non-terminated values so that a freed JavaThread
1186 // will also be considered terminated.
1187 bool check_is_terminated(TerminatedTypes l_terminated) const {
1188 return l_terminated != _not_terminated && l_terminated != _thread_exiting;
1189 }
1190 bool is_terminated();
Use of const is inconsistent here, it’s added to 1183, should it perhaps be added to 1179 and 1190 as well then?
src/hotspot/share/runtime/vm_operations.hpp
406 DeadlockCycle* result() { return _deadlocks; };
407 VMOp_Type type() const { return VMOp_FindDeadlocks; }
Whitespace only change that seems spurious.
Best regards,
Robin
