Hi,

I would like to get reviews please for

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rrich/webrevs/2019/8227745/webrev.3/

Corresponding RFE:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8227745

Fixes also https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8233915
And potentially https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8214584 [1]

Vladimir Kozlov kindly put webrev.3 through tier1-8 testing without issues 
(thanks!). In addition the
change is being tested at SAP since I posted the first RFR some months ago.

The intention of this enhancement is to benefit performance wise from escape 
analysis even if JVMTI
agents request capabilities that allow them to access local variable values. 
E.g. if you start-up
with -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n, then escape 
analysis is disabled right
from the beginning, well before a debugger attaches -- if ever one should do 
so. With the
enhancement, escape analysis will remain enabled until and after a debugger 
attaches. EA based
optimizations are reverted just before an agent acquires the reference to an 
object. In the JBS item
you'll find more details.

Most of the details here are in areas I can comment on in detail, but I did take an initial general look at things.

The only thing that jumped out at me is that I think the DeoptimizeObjectsALotThread should be a hidden thread.

+  bool is_hidden_from_external_view() const { return true; }

Also I don't see any testing of the DeoptimizeObjectsALotThread. Without active testing this will just bit-rot.

Also on the tests I don't understand your @requires clause:

@requires ((vm.compMode != "Xcomp") & vm.compiler2.enabled & (vm.opt.TieredCompilation != true))

This seems to require that TieredCompilation is disabled, but tiered is our normal mode of operation. ??

Thanks,
David

Thanks,
Richard.
