Hi all,
I want to hear your opinions about the change for JDK-8242427.
I'm trying to migrate following operations to direct handshake.
- VM_UpdateForPopTopFrame
- VM_SetFramePop
- VM_GetCurrentLocation
Some operations (VM_GetCurrentLocation and EnterInterpOnlyModeClosure) might be
called at safepoint, so I want to use JavaThread::active_handshaker() in
production VM to detect the process is in direct handshake or not.
However this function is available in debug VM only, so I want to hear the
reason why it is for debug VM only, and there are no problem to use it in
production VM. Of course another solutions are welcome.
webrev is here. It passed jtreg tests (vmTestbase/nsk/{jdi,jdwp,jvmti}
serviceability/{jdwp,jvmti})
