JIT_WriteBarrier and JIT_StructWriteBarrier are there for other
(optimizing) JITs. Rotor's FJIT never emits code that calls these
functions.

ErectWriteBarrier is the function that performs the write barrier
update. It is called from a couple of more places in addition the
JIT_*WriteBarrier functions.

Subject: Re: [DOTNET-ROTOR] Write Barrier

The "write barrier: overwrites 00B7F964 with 00B7F964" was actually
produced
from the instrumentation in the ErectWriteBarrier function. I think this
function has nothing to do with the real update of the write barrier.

Under what circumstances that the JIT_WriteBarrier and
JIT_StructWriteBarrier functions are called? Is JIT_CheckedWriteBarrier
the
only function that performs the write barrier update?

Thank you.
