It was noticed that a number of updates to the jcmd subcommands (some new, some modified) had not been added to the manpage. The text was supplied by @tstuefe - thanks Thomas. I applied the changes to the closed markdown sources and regenerated the nroff file. For easier review I have generated a html version that can be viewed here:
https://htmlpreview.github.io/https://github.com/dholmes-ora/jdk/blob/57c00815460ffef201239eafac322b4dd246da1b/jcmd.html Summary of changes: New Commands: - Compiler.perfmap - System.trim_native_heap - VM.cds - VM.classloaders - VM.events - VM.metaspace Missing flags: - GC.class_histogram -parallel - GC.heap_dump - gz and overwrite options - Thread.print -e There are further improvements that could be made, some mentioned in the bug report. I also noticed a general confusion between arguments and options with some subcommands, but I did not try to address that.
