duke@435 34
coleenp@2497 35 // Reference counting
coleenp@2497 36 //
coleenp@2497 37 // All Symbols are allocated and added to the SymbolTable.
coleenp@2497 38 // When a class is unloaded, the reference counts of the Symbol pointers in
coleenp@4037 39 // the ConstantPool and in InstanceKlass (see release_C_heap_structures) are
coleenp@2497 40 // decremented. When the reference count for a Symbol goes to 0, the garbage
coleenp@2497 41 // collector can free the Symbol and remove it from the SymbolTable.
coleenp@2497 42 //
coleenp@2497 43 // 0) Symbols need to be reference counted when a pointer to the Symbol is
coleenp@2497 44 // saved in persistent storage. This does not include the pointer
coleenp@2497 45 // in the SymbolTable bucket (the _literal field in HashtableEntry)
coleenp@2497 46 // that points to the Symbol. All other stores of a Symbol*
coleenp@2497 47 // to a field of a persistent variable (e.g., the _name filed in
drchase@5732 48 // fieldDescriptor or _ptr in a CPSlot) is reference counted.
coleenp@2497 49 //
coleenp@2497 50 // 1) The lookup of a "name" in the SymbolTable either creates a Symbol F for
coleenp@2497 51 // "name" and returns a pointer to F or finds a pre-existing Symbol F for
coleenp@2497 52 // "name" and returns a pointer to it. In both cases the reference count for F
coleenp@2497 53 // is incremented under the assumption that a pointer to F will be created from
coleenp@2497 54 // the return value. Thus the increment of the reference count is on the lookup
coleenp@2497 55 // and not on the assignment to the new Symbol*. That is
coleenp@2497 56 // Symbol* G = lookup()
coleenp@2497 57 // ^ increment on lookup()
coleenp@2497 58 // and not
coleenp@2497 59 // Symbol* G = lookup()
coleenp@2497 60 // ^ increment on assignmnet
coleenp@2497 61 // The reference count must be decremented manually when the copy of the
coleenp@2497 62 // pointer G is destroyed.
coleenp@2497 63 //
coleenp@2497 64 // 2) For a local Symbol* A that is a copy of an existing Symbol* B, the
coleenp@2497 65 // reference counting is elided when the scope of B is greater than the scope
coleenp@2497 66 // of A. For example, in the code fragment
coleenp@2497 67 // below "klass" is passed as a parameter to the method. Symbol* "kn"
coleenp@2497 68 // is a copy of the name in "klass".
coleenp@2497 69 //
coleenp@2497 70 // Symbol* kn = klass->name();
coleenp@2497 71 // unsigned int d_hash = dictionary()->compute_hash(kn, class_loader);
coleenp@2497 72 //
coleenp@2497 73 // The scope of "klass" is greater than the scope of "kn" so the reference
coleenp@2497 74 // counting for "kn" is elided.
coleenp@2497 75 //
coleenp@2497 76 // Symbol* copied from ConstantPool entries are good candidates for reference
coleenp@2497 77 // counting elision. The ConstantPool entries for a class C exist until C is
coleenp@2497 78 // unloaded. If a Symbol* is copied out of the ConstantPool into Symbol* X,
coleenp@2497 79 // the Symbol* in the ConstantPool will in general out live X so the reference
coleenp@2497 80 // counting on X can be elided.
coleenp@2497 81 //
coleenp@2497 82 // For cases where the scope of A is not greater than the scope of B,
coleenp@2497 83 // the reference counting is explicitly done. See ciSymbol,
coleenp@2497 84 // ResolutionErrorEntry and ClassVerifier for examples.
coleenp@2497 85 //
coleenp@2497 86 // 3) When a Symbol K is created for temporary use, generally for substrings of
coleenp@2497 87 // an existing symbol or to create a new symbol, assign it to a
coleenp@2497 88 // TempNewSymbol. The SymbolTable methods new_symbol(), lookup()
coleenp@2497 89 // and probe() all potentially return a pointer to a new Symbol.
coleenp@2497 90 // The allocation (or lookup) of K increments the reference count for K
coleenp@2497 91 // and the destructor decrements the reference count.
coleenp@2497 92 //
coleenp@2497 93 // Another example of TempNewSymbol usage is parsed_name used in
coleenp@2497 94 // ClassFileParser::parseClassFile() where parsed_name is used in the cleanup
coleenp@2497 95 // after a failed attempt to load a class. Here parsed_name is a
coleenp@2497 96 // TempNewSymbol (passed in as a parameter) so the reference count on its symbol
coleenp@2497 97 // will be decremented when it goes out of scope.
