We currently have: CompiledMethod_lock (special-1) -> CodeCache_lock (special) -> VtableStubs_lock (leaf-2 == special + 11) -> CompiledIC_lock(leaf+2 == special + 15) If we change special to nosafepoint then we would have: CompiledMethod_lock (nosafepoint-1) -> CodeCache_lock (nosafepoint) -> VtableStubs_lock (leaf-2 == nosafepoint + 4) -> CompiledIC_lock(leaf+2 == nosafepoint + 8 == safepoint - 8) so I don't see why we would have CodeCache_lock instead be nosafepoint-3 ? If all you have done is change special to nosafepoint then all the existing relative rankings remain for things like leaf and leaf-2. The only adjustment you have to make is for a leaf+2 to instead be expressed as safepoint-8. David ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/5563
