The jcmd docs for Compiler.perfmap currently say:
- *filename*: (Optional) The name of the map file (STRING, no default value)
However, there is a default, so not only should that be made more clear in the
above, but also some descriptive text as to how the default is generated should
be added.
VM.cds has a similar issue, but already has the descriptive text, so just the
"no default value" part needs to be fixed.
Another change needed is to consistently use *filename* (italics) instead of
`filename` (monospace). Note this is how html formatting is done. For the man
page formatting, *filename* does no formatting and `filename` is displayed in
color if supported. Personally I prefer `filename`, but it seems that there is
already a strong precedence for using italics in the *arguments* list. For
example:
*arguments*:
- *flag name*: The name of the flag that you want to set (STRING, no
default value)
- *string value*: (Optional) The value that you want to set (STRING, no
default value)
