Thanks for looking at this.

I'm wondering why you took out the NULL return for make_local() without a thread argument?  Here you may call Thread::current() unnecessarily.

  jobject JNIHandles::make_local(oop obj) {
- if (obj == NULL) {
- return NULL; // ignore null handles
- } else {
- Thread* thread = Thread::current();
- assert(oopDesc::is_oop(obj), "not an oop");
- assert(!current_thread_in_native(), "must not be in native");
- return thread->active_handles()->allocate_handle(obj);
- }
+ return make_local(Thread::current(), obj);
  }

I was simply using a standard call forwarding pattern to avoid code duplication. I suspect passing NULL is very rare so the unnecessary Thread::current() call is not an issue. Otherwise, if not NULL, the NULL check would happen twice (unless I keep the duplicated implementations).

Beyond the scope of this fix, but it'd be cool to not have a version that doesn't take thread, since there may be many more callers that already have Thread::current().

Indeed! And in fact I had missed a number of these in jvm.cpp and jni.cpp so I have fixed those. I've filed a RFE for other cases:

If this passes tier 1-3 re-testing then I plan to push.

Thanks,

This is a simple cleanup that touches files across a number of VM areas - hence the cross-post. Whilst working on a different JNI fix I noticed that in most cases in jni.cpp we were using the following form of make_local:
JNIHandles::make_local(env, obj);
and what that form does is first extract the thread from the JNIEnv:
JavaThread* thread = JavaThread::thread_from_jni_environment(env);
return thread->active_handles()->allocate_handle(obj);
but there is also another, faster, variant for when you already have the "thread":
jobject JNIHandles::make_local(Thread* thread, oop obj) {
   return thread->active_handles()->allocate_handle(obj);
}
When you look at the JNI_ENTRY wrapper (and related JVM_ENTRY, WB_ENTRY, UNSAFE_ENTRY etc) it has already extracted the thread from the JNIEnv:
     JavaThread* thread=JavaThread::thread_from_jni_environment(env);
and further defined:
     Thread* THREAD = thread;
so we always already have direct access to the "thread" available (or indirect via TRAPS), and in fact we can end up removing the make_local(JNIEnv* env, oop obj) variant altogether. Along the way I spotted some related issues with unnecessary use of Thread::current() when it is already available from TRAPS, and some other cases where we extracted the JNIEnv from a thread only to later extract the thread from the JNIEnv.
Testing: tiers 1 - 3
Thanks,

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
src/hotspot/share/classfile/javaClasses.cpp
  439     JNIEnv *env = thread->jni_environment();

Since env is no longer used on the next line, move this down to where
it is used, at line 444.

Fixed.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
src/hotspot/share/classfile/verifier.cpp
  299   JNIEnv *env = thread->jni_environment();

env now seems to only be used at line 320.  Move this closer.

Fixed.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
src/hotspot/share/prims/jni.cpp
  743     result = JNIHandles::make_local(THREAD, result_handle());

jni_PopLocalFrame is now using a mix of "thread" and "THREAD", where
previously it just used "thread". Maybe this change shouldn't be made?
Or can the other uses be changed to THREAD for consistency?

"thread" and "THREAD" are interchangeable for anything expecting a "Thread*" (and somewhat surprisingly a number of API's that only work for JavaThreads actually take a Thread*. :( ). I had choice between trying to be file-wide consistent with the make_local calls, versus local-code consistent, and used THREAD as it is available in both JNI_ENTRY and via TRAPS. But I can certainly make a local change to "thread" for local consistency.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
src/hotspot/share/prims/jvm.cpp

The calls to JvmtiExport::post_vm_object_alloc have to use "thread"
instead of "THREAD", even though other places nearby are using
"THREAD".  That inconsistency is kind of unfortunate, but doesn't seem
easily avoidable.

Everything that uses THREAD in a JVM_ENTRY method can be changed to use "thread" instead. But I'm not sure it's a consistency worth pursuing at least as part of these changes (there are likely similar issues with most of the touched files).

Thanks,
David
