Hi Coleen,

Good to see all these oops moving to the mirrors. I think the changes look good. I let someone else review the SA changes

Yes, I'm hoping for someone to review the SA changes.

Some comments below:

Summary: Inject protection_domain, signers, init_lock into java_lang_Class

Net footprint change is zero except that these fields are in Java heap rather than metaspace.

There should be some memory saved since we now use compressed oops for the embedded fields.

That's right.

This helps a little with InstanceKlass size which is in fixed size space with UseCompressedKlassPointers. Included serviceability because there were SA changes to code that I don't know is used.

Future work is to remove the signers field and the unused SetProtectionDomain function.

You don't really need the setters on the InstanceKlass anymore. They are only used in jvm.cpp where they take a couple of unnecessary indirections: mirror -> IK -> mirror->set_protection_domain/set_signers.


I left these accessor functions in with a comment that JVMTI spec defined these fields in InstanceKlass and we have to simulate that they are still there for compatibility.

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~coleenp/8003421/src/share/vm/oops/arrayKlass.cpp.udiff.html

-  java_lang_Class::create_mirror(k, CHECK);
+  java_lang_Class::create_mirror(k, Handle(NULL), CHECK);

You use NULL here since typeArrays always return a NULL pd, and objArrays always returns the pd of the bottom klass?


Yes.
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~coleenp/8003421/src/share/vm/oops/instanceKlass.cpp.patch

-void InstanceKlass::oops_do(OopClosure* cl) {
-  Klass::oops_do(cl);
-
-  cl->do_oop(adr_protection_domain());
-  cl->do_oop(adr_signers());
-  cl->do_oop(adr_init_lock());
-
- // Don't walk the arrays since they are walked from the ClassLoaderData objects.
-}

If we could move ArrayKlass::_component_mirror into the j.l.Class, then _java_mirror would be the only oop in the klasses and we could make Klass::oops_do non-virtual ...


That would add a field to all mirrors though. It's a bit harder but it would be nice to have smaller mirrors for array klasses vs. instanceKlasses.


Another thing. If we could direct-allocate the java mirrors in the old gen, then we wouldn't have to walk all the klasses during the young GCs. This would make the GCs a bit less complicated and we could get rid of these fields in Klass:

  // Remembered sets support for the oops in the klasses.
jbyte _modified_oops; // Card Table Equivalent (YC/CMS support)
  jbyte _accumulated_modified_oops; // Mod Union Equivalent (CMS support)


Yes, we want to move in this direction!  Not with this change though.

Tested with vm.quick.testlist, JPRT, jtreg java/security tests and jck8 tests.

Thanks,
Coleen
