Maybe it is not worth it, though. Understood. The heap dump will succeed if you can allocate at least one WriteWork instance. Without that you could get out of memory errors in the zlib which would make the dump fail. Ok! > http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rschmelter/webrevs/8237354/webrev.2/ Thanks for the clarifications and the changes in the new webrev. Webrev.2 looks good to me.

I have incorporated your remarks into a new webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rschmelter/webrevs/8237354/webrev.2/ Some remarks to specific points: > ### src/hotspot/share/services/heapDumper.cpp > 762: assert(_active, "Must be active"); > > It appears to me that the assertion would fail, if an error occurred creating > the CompressionBackend. You are supposed to check for errors after creating the DumpWriter (which creates the CompressionBackend). And in case of an error, you directly destruct the object. I've added a comment to make that clear. > 767: I think _current->in_used doesn't take the final 9 bytes into account > that are written in > DumperSupport::end_of_dump() after the last dump segment has been finished. > You could call get_new_buffer() instead of the if clause.

Maybe it is not worth it, though. > 1655: The result of deflateBound() seems to depend on the header comment, > which is not given > here. Could this be an issue, because ZIP_GZip_Fully() can take a comment?

The object is not closed since it is still used by the Snapshot returned.

I reckon it's safe to say that the coding is sophisticated. It would be awesome if you could sketch the idea of how HeapDumper, DumpWriter and CompressionBackend work together to produce the gzipped dump in a source code comment. Just enough to get started if somebody should ever have to track down a bug -- an unlikely event, I know ;) Please find the details of my review below. Thanks, Richard. // Not Reviewer -- ### src/hotspot/share/services/diagnosticCommand.cpp 510 _gzip_level("-gz-level", "The compression level from 0 (store) to 9 (best) when writing in gzipped format.", 511 "INT", "FALSE", "1") { "FALSE" should be probably false. ### src/hotspot/share/services/diagnosticCommand.hpp Ok. ### src/hotspot/share/services/heapDumper.cpp 390: Typo: initized 415: Typo: GZipComressor 477: Could you please add a comment, how the "HPROF BLOCKSIZE" comment is helpful? 539: Member variables of WriteWork are missing the '_' prefix. 546: Just a comment: WriteWork::in_max is actually a compile time constant. Would be nice if it could be declared so. One could use templates for this, but then my favourite ide (eclipse cdt) doesn't show me references and call hierarchies anymore. So I don't think it is worth it. 591: Typo: Removes the first element. Returns NULL is empty. 663: _writer, _compressor, _lock could be const. 762: assert(_active, "Must be active"); It appears to me that the assertion would fail, if an error occurred creating the CompressionBackend. 767: I think _current->in_used doesn't take the final 9 bytes into account that are written in DumperSupport::end_of_dump() after the last dump segment has been finished. You could call get_new_buffer() instead of the if clause. 903: Typo: Check if we don not waste more than _max_waste 1064: DumpWriter::DumpWriter() There doesn't seem to be enough error handling if _buffer cannot be allocated. E.g. DumpWriter::write_raw() at line 1091 will enter an endless loop. 2409: A comment, why Shenandoah is not supported, would be good. In general I'd say it is good and natural to use the GC work threads. ### src/hotspot/share/services/heapDumper.hpp Ok. ### src/java.base/share/native/libzip/zip_util.c I'm not familiar with zlib, but here are my .02€ :) 1610: Will be hard to beat zlib_block_alloc() and zlib_block_free() performance wise. But have you measured the performance gain? In other words: is it worth it? :) 1655: The result of deflateBound() seems to depend on the header comment, which is not given here. Could this be an issue, because ZIP_GZip_Fully() can take a comment? 1658: deflateEnd() should not be called if deflateInit2Wrapper() failed. I think this can lead otherwise to a double free() call. ### test/hotspot/jtreg/serviceability/dcmd/gc/HeapDumpCompressedTest.java 66: Maybe additionally check the exit value? 73: It's unclear to me, why this fails. Because the dump already exists? Because the level is invalid? Reading the comment I'd expect success, not failure. ### test/hotspot/jtreg/serviceability/dcmd/gc/HeapDumpCompressedTestEpsilon.java Ok. ### test/hotspot/jtreg/serviceability/dcmd/gc/HeapDumpCompressedTestShenandoah.java Ok. ### test/hotspot/jtreg/serviceability/dcmd/gc/HeapDumpCompressedTestZ.java Ok. ### test/lib/jdk/test/lib/hprof/parser/GzipRandomAccess.java Ok. ### test/lib/jdk/test/lib/hprof/parser/HprofReader.java Ok. ### test/lib/jdk/test/lib/hprof/parser/Reader.java 93: is the created GzipRandomAccess instance closed somewhere?
