What do you mean when you say "non-reentrant JIT"?  A JIT that has
global variables and assumes it is only running in one thread at a
time?  Or a JIT that assumes that it won't be interrupted (in a given
thread) to do some other piece of work?  Or maybe something else?

FWIW we continue to do both approaches in Classpath -- different VMs
do different things.  In particular in gcj we replace some of the core
classes like Class and String with our own versions.  The difficulty
here is that bug fixes to the shared code must be manually merged.
This turns out to be more work than we originally thought it would be;
in general these days I try to push us to follow Classpath more
closely for this reason.

 Here I'm resending my earlier posting in order to have a typo fixed
("excusively" should have been "exclusively"). Thanks for your time:


Good question! I'll reply according to the 4 areas in the previous email:
abstracting over the mode of execution, asynchronous compilation,
reentrancy, and supporting the mixing of JIT and interpreter.

The Execution Manager (EM) could be designed to host both JIT as well as
interpreter. The EM could also contain the execution policy. For example,
interpret exclusively or interpret until certain thresholds are crossed then
JIT. One way of doing this is to have the EM build an internal configuration
data structure to would hold the execution policy. The policy would be
loaded via a *.properties file or even developer time makefile parameters.

There are a number of ways to support asynchronous
compilation/re-compilation. For example, a timer based approach would sample
method hotness for a time interval of "X", then recompile the hotest methods
first in a separate thread. The java app threads continue without
disruption.

Harmony JVM needs to be designed to support non-reentrant JITs as a default.
It also needs to be designed to take advantage of reentrant JITs. This is

JITs and interpreters much easier. This in turn will allow Harmony to
support a larger number of active developers/committers than would otherwise
be possible.

I've had something like that in place for Kaffe for a while during a few
years, but I found the manual updating of component sets during the rush
of development on GNU Classpath to be, ugh, somewhat boring work, and
settled for for an approach where the list of classes to be compiled can
be pruned down, or left to the compiler to pull in the dependencies.

I am wondering if the osgi toolkits support some more automated ways of
partitioning libraries into separate, coupled artefacts. I've heard on
the classpath list, that such tools exist[1], but it seems that I've my
 google skills are not good enough to locate them :)

Re: Code contribution to harmony

2005-11-08 Thread Geir Magnusson Jr.

Thanks Tim!

A few comments, wearing my Apache hat of course (n.b I am an IBM  
employee as well).


0) We need to go through the bulk contribution process for this  
donation (of course).  I have an outstanding to-do on that, which is  
to wrap up the bulk contrib rules.  I have a proposal that I'll bring  
to the dev list later today.  Many of the following statements are  
made with the assumption that we will work through this process  
successfully, and the project will vote to accept this contribution.


1) This is our most significant donation we have received to date (in  
terms of maturity and size, I think) and I encourage everyone to  
start to play with it.  I think of Harmony as a big freight train and  
with this contribution builds on the contributions of Dan, Archie,  
David, and all the others and the train is starting to move.  The  
nice thing about a lot of mass is that even small velocities result  
in very large momentum :)


2) Combined with the VM that IBM is making available _for  
evaluation_, there is a very low barrier to entry to get people up  
and working with this.  Tim and his team have gone to great pains to  
make this easy to evaluate and use (only to be foiled at the end by  
our 10MB upload limit on JIRA, hence the two zip files...) so I  
encourage everyone to take some time to play, inspect and of course,  
ask questions.


3) I want to emphasize that IBM is making their VM available to help  
us evaluate and develop this further until we get our own open source  
VM underneath it.   The VM (for which a link will be posted later) is  
not being contributed to the project, or licensed for any other  
use.   It is proprietary software under a proprietary license.  It is  
useful to us because it supports the VM/classlibrary interface that  
the IBM donation implements, so we can start evaluation and testing  
immediately.


4) To that end, I can think of a few things we can do to get started :

 a) Get our own current crop of VMs working with it - bootVM and  
jcheVM.


 b) Help to get Kaffe working with the library interface - see what  
it takes to get Kaffe to support this interface as well (if they  
want), so we have a more mature free VM that supports the interface.


 c) Help to get GNU Classpath supporting the interface (if they  
want) so that GNU Classpath can run on the evaluation VM.


The point here is to continue to focus on our cross-project  
interoperability and modularity interests, with this important  
interface as a starting point.  The other benefit of this is that we  
can start gump-ing this stuff ASAP :)


I'm sure I'll have things I want to add once I hit "send"...

Yay!
