Hi Dmitry,

It seems odd that you install the new_method even if there was an exception. What if the new_method is not valid because of the exception ?

Coleen suggested this fragment.
New methods will be deallocated with the scratch class in a case of exception. It is handled in the doit_prologue where the scratch classes are added to the CL deallocation list.


Also once you've cleared the exception and returned false, the user has no information as to why this failed. I understand we don't want to hit the guarantee here, but it seems there is a hole in the error flow.

This issue is fixed in a separate bug fix for 8024346 (see another review request).
Sorry for the confusion here.

The whole error flow is not perfect but I'm not targetting to make it perfect now. Multiple bugs on the limited Metaspace topic were filed by Stefan: 8017230, 8024345, 8024346. My role is to apply/test fixes suggested by Stefan and Coleen in the order the issues were discovered.

Just understand that my suggested patches were just temporary patches to get me past the bugs, not final fixes.

Yes, of course.
It is my resp. to double-check and make it final.
But you deserved the credit for this investigation anyway. :)

Thanks,
Serguei
