Hi, Xiao Feng, Gregory,
I believe that current implementation of WB support for arraycopy is
good in case of unknown GC design. It would hit WB for every element
in the array, and then maintain compatibility across different GC
implementations, right?
I'm also thinking of specialized write barrier helper for arrays,
which would exploit your design but keep VM/JIT unaware of the
details.
Gregory, I have modified the patch to cover your concern, does it fits well?
Heh. I didn't answer to you in JIRA :) It was George Timoshenko who did.
It seems like he's satisfied with your update although I wouldn't answer
for him.
