Dan,

All 3 versions of the code looks good. Thank you for enabling the printing for 
product since
this type of problem is so hard to duplicate.

You're welcome.


A small note, I think it would have been easier for the internal code logic
for the CPCE::check_no_old_or_obsolete_entries to reverse the true/false,
but no need to change.

The original code added by Robert on 2006.04.21 used "check_no_old_entries"
so I followed his lead in my rename.


I would appreciate the comment from
is_interesting_method_entry copied to check_no_old_or_obsolete_entries
about virtual and final that f2 contains a method ptr instead of a vtable index.

So this comment here on line 498:

 497   if (is_vfinal()) {
498 // virtual and final so _f2 contains method ptr instead of vtable index
 499     m = (methodOop)_f2;

Copied to this new block here:

 475   if (is_vfinal()) {
 476     methodOop m = (methodOop)_f2;

between line 475 and 476 (for the HSX23.6 version). Between line 580
and 581 in the HSX-24 version and between line 465 and 466 in the
HSX-25 version.

I'll make that change.

In the jdk8 version in cpCache.cpp you've added the is_valid checks for 
metadata.

The is_valid() check may go away since the field it is using adds to
memory footprint. Stay tuned.


For a future cleanup, do we need f2_as_vfinal_method and 
is_interesting_method_entry
to do that as well?

This line in the HSX-25 version:

  466     Metadata* f2 = (Metadata*)_f2;

should probably have used f2_as_vfinal_method(). I'll have to check
with Coleen to find out if there is a reason why it doesn't; there
may be a good reason.

I noticed that there is quite a bit of "type cleanup" in the HSX-24
version of is_interesting_method_entry(), e.g.:

In HSX23.6:

 497   if (is_vfinal()) {
498 // virtual and final so _f2 contains method ptr instead of vtable index
 499     m = (methodOop)_f2;
 500   } else if ((oop)_f1 == NULL) {
 501     // NULL _f1 means this is a virtual entry so also not interesting
 502     return false;

In HSX24:

 602   if (is_vfinal()) {
603 // virtual and final so _f2 contains method ptr instead of vtable index
 604     m = f2_as_vfinal_method();
 605   } else if (is_f1_null()) {
 606     // NULL _f1 means this is a virtual entry so also not interesting
 607     return false;

check_no_old_or_obsolete_entries() could definitely benefit from
the better code in is_interesting_method_entry(). In particular,
this block in is_interesting_method_entry():

 491   if (!is_method_entry()) {
 492     // not a method entry so not interesting by default
 493     return false;
 494   }

is present in the HSX-23.6, HSX-24, and HSX-25 versions of
is_interesting_method_entry(), but is not used by the original
check_no_old_entries() or any of the new check_no_old_or_obsolete_entries().
I'll put that info in the new bug to track the future work.


Is redefineclasses supported in the MinimalVM?

I don't know the answer to that. I have not been tracking the
MinimalVM work. I'll investigate and get back to you.

Again, thanks for the reviews.

Dan





thanks,
Karen

Greetings,

I have a fix for the following JVM/TI bug:

    7182152 Instrumentation hot swap test incorrect monitor count
    http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7182152
    https://jbs.oracle.com/bugs/browse/JDK-7182152

The fix for the bug in the product code is one line:

src/share/vm/oops/klassVtable.cpp:

@@ -992,18 +1020,50 @@
           // RC_TRACE macro has an embedded ResourceMark
           RC_TRACE(0x00200000, ("itable method update: %s(%s)",
             new_method->name()->as_C_string(),
             new_method->signature()->as_C_string()));
         }
-        break;
+        // cannot 'break' here; see for-loop comment above.
       }
       ime++;
     }
   }
}

and is applicable to JDK7u10/HSX-23.6 and JDK7u14/HSX-24. Coleen
already fixed the bug as part of the Perm Gen Removal (PGR) project
in HSX-25. Yes, we found a 1-line bug fix buried in the monster PGR
changeset. Many thanks to Coleen for her help in this bug hunt!

The rest of the code in the webrevs are:

- additional JVM/TI tracing code backported from Coleen's PGR changeset
- additional JVM/TI tracing code added by me and forward ported to HSX-25
- a new -XX:TraceRedefineClasses=16384 flag value for finding these
  elusive old or obsolete methods
- exposure of some printing code to the PRODUCT build so that the new
  tracing is available in a PRODUCT build

You might be wondering why the new tracing code is exposed in a PRODUCT
build. Well, it appears that more and more PRODUCT bits deployments are
using JVM/TI RedefineClasses() and/or RetransformClasses() at run-time
to instrument their systems. This bug (7182152) was only intermittently
reproducible in the WLS environment in which it occurred so I made the
tracing available in a PRODUCT build to assist in the hunt.

Raj from the WLS team has also verified that the HSX-23.6 version of
fix resolves the issue in his environment. Thanks Raj!

Here are the URLs for the three webrevs:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dcubed/7182152-webrev/0-hsx23.6/
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dcubed/7182152-webrev/0-hsx24/
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dcubed/7182152-webrev/0-hsx25/

I have run the following test suites from the JPDA stack on the
JDK7u10/HSX-23.6 version of the fix with -XX:TraceRedefineClasses=16384
specified:

    sdk-jdi
    sdk-jdi_closed
    sdk-jli
    vm-heapdump
    vm-hprof
    vm-jdb
    vm-jdi
    vm-jdwp
    vm-jvmti
    vm-sajdi

The tested configs are:

    {Solaris-X86, WinXP}
      X {Client VM, Server VM}
      X {-Xmixed, -Xcomp}
      X {product, fastdebug}

With the 1-liner fix in place, the new tracing code does not find any
instances of this failure mode in any of the above test suites. Without
the the 1-liner fix in place, the new tracing code finds one instance
of this failure mode in the above test suites:

    test/java/lang/instrument/IsModifiableClassAgent.java

There are two new tests that will be pushed to the JDK repos using
a different bug ID (not yet filed):

    test/com/sun/jdi/RedefineAbstractClass.sh
test/java/lang/instrument/RedefineSubclassWithTwoInterfaces.sh

There will be a separate review request for the new tests.

I'm currently running the JPDA stack of tests on the JDK7u14/HSX-24
and JDK8-B75/HSX-25 versions of the fix. That testing will likely
take all weekend to complete.

Thanks, in advance, for any comments and/or suggestions.

Dan
