Summary: Use scratch_class to find EMCP methods for breakpoints if
the old methods are still running
See bug for more details. This fix also includes a change to
nmethod::metadata_do() to not walk the _method multiple times (the
_method is added to the metadata section of the nmethod), and an
attempt to help the sweeper clean up these scratch_class instance
classes sooner.
Tested with nsk tests, java/lang/instrument tests and jck tests
(which include some jvmti tests).

The 'obsolete' part of the function name does not match with
the 'emcp' part of the parameter name. EMCP methods are 'old',
but not 'obsolete'.
Update: OK, I think I get it. We want to mark methods that are
newly transitioning from EMCP -> obsolete and the
emcp_method_count
parameter tells us if there is any work to do.

'pvw' no longer exists so comment is stale.

This comment should move above this line:
3453 for (; pv_node != NULL; ) {
and 'array' should change to 'list'.
Sorry for the bad placement of the original comment.
line 3463: last->link_previous_versions(pv_node);
So now we've overwritten the previous value of
last->previous_versions. How does that InstanceKlass
get freed? Maybe a short comment?
line 3484: // Mark the emcp method as obsolete if it's not executing
I'm not sure about whether this is a good idea. When we had a
redefine make a method obsolete before, we knew that we could
make all older but previously EMCP methods obsolete because
the new method version did make them obsolete.
With this optimization, we're saying that no thread is executing
the method so we're going to make it obsolete even if the
current
redefine did not do so. I worry about a method call that is in
the early stages of assembling the call stack being caught
calling a method that is now obsolete but not because of a
redefine made it obsolete. Just FYI, one of the tracing flags
catches unexpected calls to obsolete methods today and it does
catch the current system's legitimate race.
JVM/TI has an isMethodObsolete() API:
jvmtiError
IsMethodObsolete(jvmtiEnv* env,
jmethodID method,
jboolean* is_obsolete_ptr)
It would be possible for an agent to observe a method changing from
not obsolete to obsolete when that's not expected. I suspect that
this would be a spec violation.
I agree that this looks like a spec violation.
The emcp methods by definition are non-obsolete,
or in opposite, the obsolete methods are non-emcp:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/platform/jvmti/jvmti.html#obsoleteMethods
Old method versions may become obsolete, not emcp:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/platform/jvmti/jvmti.html#RedefineClasses
But maybe I'm missing something...
Thanks,

way.
Perhaps "mark" instead of "clear out"?
old line 3659: if (!method->is_obsolete() &&
new line 3546: if (method->is_emcp() &&
The old code is correct. The old code won't remark a method that
was already made obsolete so there won't be more than one trace
message for that operation.
line 3581: // stack, and set emcp methods on the stack.
In comments 'emcp' should be 'EMCP'. We did not do that in the
code because of HotSpot's variable name style.
Also, set what on EMCP methods on the stack?

Perhaps:

So in the original code f(_method) was being called two extra
times? (once in the while-loop and once at the end) So I'm
guessing that f(_method) is properly called when the rest of
the metadata is handled in the nmethod (line 2085)?

These may not behave well on OSes with bad threading
models. You might want to add a helper function that
sleeps for 10ms and have each of these loops call it
so the test more well behaved.
