> This is the implementation of JEP 425: Virtual Threads (Preview).
>
> We will refresh this PR periodically to pick up changes and fixes from the loom repo.
>
> Most of the new mechanisms in the HotSpot VM are disabled by default and require running with `--enable-preview` to enable.
>
> The patch has support for x64 and aarch64 on the usual operating systems (Linux, macOS, and Windows). There are stubs (calling _Unimplemented_) for zero and some of the other ports. Additional ports can be contributed via PRs against the fibers branch in the loom repo.
>
> There are changes in many areas. To reduce notifications/mails, the labels have been trimmed down for now to hotspot, serviceability and core-libs. We can add additional labels, if required, as the PR progresses.
>
> The changes include a refresh of java.util.concurrent and ForkJoinPool from Doug Lea's CVS. These changes will probably be proposed and integrated in advance of this PR.
>
> The changes include some non-exposed and low-level infrastructure to support the (in draft) JEPs for Structured Concurrency and Extent Locals. This is to make life a bit easier and avoid having to separate VM changes and juggle branches at this time.
