The former just defers to the latter for now, since it provides
strictly weaker guarantees. Thus it's correct to use full
volatile-style barriers, though not as efficient as it could be on
some architectures.
Unsafe.compareAndSwapLong was moved from classpath-openjdk.cpp to
builtin.cpp, but the fieldForOffset helper function was not, which
only caused problems when I tried to build for ARM. This commit moves
said helper function, along with Unsafe.getVolatileLong, which also
uses it.
The findResources method is supposed to enumerate all the class path
elements' matching paths' URLs, but we used to stop at the first one.
While this is good enough when the system class path contains only a
single .jar file, since b88438d2(sketch of JAR support in Finder)
supports more than a single .jar file in the class path.

Previously, I used a shell script to extract modification date ranges
from the Git history, but that was complicated and unreliable, so now
every file just gets the same year range in its copyright header. If
someone needs to know when a specific file was modified and by whom,
they can look at the Git history themselves; no need to include it
redundantly in the header.
Since park does not throw InterruptedException, we must leave the flag
set if we are interrupted while parked so that
e.g. AbstractQueuedSynchronizer can itself throw an exception if
appropriate.
This mainly moves several sun.misc.Unsafe method implementations from
classpath-openjdk.cpp to builtin.cpp so that the Avian and Android
builds can use them.
It also replaces FinalizerReference.finalizeAllEnqueued with a no-op,
since the real implementations assumes too much about how the VM
handles (or delegates) finalization.
This is necessary to avoid name conflicts on various platforms. For
example, iOS has its own util.h, and Windows has a process.h. By
including our version as e.g. "avian/util.h", we avoid confusion with
the system version.
This package name must match the URL protocol we use for loading
embedded resources, but OpenJDK's URL class won't tolerate underscores
in a protocol name. Also, I had not updated the names of the native
methods in avian.avianvmresource.Handler, leading to
UnsatisfiedLinkErrors when they were called.
The main changes here are:
* fixes for runtime annotation support
* proper support for runtime generic type introspection
* throw NoClassDefFoundErrors instead of ClassNotFoundExceptions
where appropriate
This rather large commit modifies the VM to use non-local returns to
throw exceptions instead of simply setting Thread::exception and
returning frame-by-frame as it used to. This has several benefits:
* Functions no longer need to check Thread::exception after each call
which might throw an exception (which would be especially tedious
and error-prone now that any function which allocates objects
directly or indirectly might throw an OutOfMemoryError)
* There's no need to audit the code for calls to functions which
previously did not throw exceptions but later do
* Performance should be improved slightly due to both the reduced
need for conditionals and because undwinding now occurs in a single
jump instead of a series of returns
The main disadvantages are:
* Slightly higher overhead for entering and leaving the VM via the
JNI and JDK methods
* Non-local returns can make the code harder to read
* We must be careful to register destructors for stack-allocated
resources with the Thread so they can be called prior to a
non-local return
The non-local return implementation is similar to setjmp/longjmp,
except it uses continuation-passing style to avoid the need for
cooperation from the C/C++ compiler. Native C++ exceptions would have
also been an option, but that would introduce a dependence on
libstdc++, which we're trying to avoid for portability reasons.
Finally, this commit ensures that the VM throws an OutOfMemoryError
instead of aborting when it reaches its memory ceiling. Currently, we
treat the ceiling as a soft limit and temporarily exceed it as
necessary to allow garbage collection and certain internal allocations
to succeed, but refuse to allocate any Java objects until the heap
size drops back below the ceiling.
When trying to create an array class, we try to resolve
java.lang.Object so we can use its vtable in the array class.
However, if Object is missing, we'll try to create and throw a
ClassNotFoundException, which requires creating an array to store the
stack trace, which requires creating an array class, which requires
resolving Object, etc.. This commit short-circuits this process by
telling resolveClass not to create and throw an exception if it can't
find Object.
While doing the above work, I noticed that the implementations of
Classpath::makeThrowable in classpath-avian.cpp and
classpath-openjdk.cpp were identical, so I made makeThrowable a
top-level function.
Finally, I discovered that Thread.setDaemon can only be called before
the target thread has been started, which allowed me to simplify the
code to track daemon threads in the VM.
This allows OpenJDK to access time zone data which is normally found
under java.home, but which we must embed in the executable itself to
create a self-contained build. The VM intercepts various file
operations, looking for paths which start with a prefix specified by
the avian.embed.prefix property and redirecting those operations to an
embedded JAR.
For example, if avian.embed.prefix is "/avian-embedded", and code
calls File.exists() with a path of
"/avian-embedded/javahomeJar/foo.txt", the VM looks for a function
named javahomeJar via dlsym, calls the function to find the memory
region containing the embeded JAR, and finally consults the JAR to see
if the file "foo.txt" exists.
The main changes in this commit ensure that we don't hold the global
class lock when doing class resolution using application-defined
classloaders. Such classloaders may do their own locking (in fact,
it's almost certain), making deadlock likely when mixed with VM-level
locking in various orders.
Other changes include a fix to avoid overflow when waiting for
extremely long intervals and a GC root stack mapping bug.
The biggest change in this commit is to split the system classloader
into two: one for boot classes (e.g. java.lang.*) and another for
application classes. This is necessary to make OpenJDK's security
checks happy.
The rest of the changes include bugfixes and additional JVM method
implementations in classpath-openjdk.cpp.
Whereas the GNU Classpath port used the strategy of patching Classpath
with core classes from Avian so as to minimize changes to the VM, this
port uses the opposite strategy: abstract and isolate
classpath-specific features in the VM similar to how we abstract away
platform-specific features in system.h. This allows us to use an
unmodified copy of OpenJDK's class library, including its core classes
and augmented by a few VM-specific classes in the "avian" package.
In order to facilitate making the VM compatible with multiple class
libraries, it's useful to separate the VM-specific representation of
these classes from the library implementations. This commit
introduces VMClass, VMField, and VMMethod for that purpose.
Previously, we risked segfaults by passing negative numbers to memcpy.
This commit also makes arraycopy throw an IndexOutOfBounds exception
instead of an ArrayStoreException if the specified offsets and lengths
would take us outside the bounds of one or both of the arrays, per the
Sun documentation.
