Thanks John...I've seen a lot of commits landing, and figured things
are a bit fluxxy. I'm trying not to get too frustrated by it and keep
feeding you issues as they come up.
For the catchException issue, the code I provided should allow you to
reproduce. I have not dug any deeper than that example case. My
workaround is to simply not use the more direct invokedynamic binding
logic in cases where a catchException would end up dealing with > 10
arguments. It's a stopgap, of course, since it ends up being no faster
than the old IC.
For the methodHandleWalk issue (which I see quite a bit now on head),
I have not been able to narrow it down just yet. The failure appears
to come from this code, which I'm guessing is walking argument types
in the handle tree to determine how to inline:
// Generate invoke. <=== LINE 1103 in methodHandleWalk.cpp
switch (op) {
case Bytecodes::_invokestatic:
case Bytecodes::_invokespecial:
case Bytecodes::_invokevirtual:
emit_bc(op, methodref_index);
break;
case Bytecodes::_invokeinterface:
Unimplemented();
break;
default:
ShouldNotReachHere(); <==== REACHED
}
I have some code in my local copy I could land to work around some of
these ShouldNotReachHere failures, but running the example JRuby
command against *current* (as of this exact moment) JRuby master
should trigger it fairly easily. Again, nothing reduced, but it is
reproducible. I will try to reduce this as I have time over the
weekend.
There were also some random crashes on the current macosx build I have
not seen on head. I'll assume they've been fixed and ignore them for
now.
