Hi,
could I please get reviews for this small enhancement:
Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rrich/webrevs/8238585/webrev.0/
Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8238585
The change avoids making all compiled methods on stack not_entrant when switching a java thread to
interpreter only execution for jvmti purposes. It is sufficient to deoptimize the compiled frames on stack.
Additionally a handshake is used instead of a vm operation to walk the stack and do the deoptimizations.
Testing: JCK and JTREG tests, also in Xcomp mode with fastdebug and release builds on all platforms.
Thanks, Richard.
See also my question if anyone knows a reason for making the compiled methods not_entrant:
