    1.28 +// This table encapsulates the debugging information required by the
    1.29 +// serviceability agent in order to run. Specifically, we need to
    1.30 +// understand the layout of certain C data structures (offsets, in
    1.31 +// bytes, of their fields.)
    1.32 +//
    1.33 +// There are alternatives for the design of this mechanism, including
    1.34 +// parsing platform-specific debugging symbols from a debug build into
    1.35 +// a program database. While this current mechanism can be considered
    1.36 +// to be a workaround for the inability to debug arbitrary C and C++
    1.37 +// programs at the present time, it does have certain advantages.
    1.38 +// First, it is platform-independent, which will vastly simplify the
    1.39 +// initial bringup of the system both now and on future platforms.
    1.40 +// Second, it is embedded within the VM, as opposed to being in a
    1.41 +// separate program database; experience has shown that whenever
    1.42 +// portions of a system are decoupled, version skew is problematic.
    1.43 +// Third, generating a program database, for example for a product
    1.44 +// build, would probably require two builds to be done: the desired
    1.45 +// product build as well as an intermediary build with the PRODUCT
    1.46 +// flag turned on but also compiled with -g, leading to a doubling of
    1.47 +// the time required to get a serviceability agent-debuggable product
    1.48 +// build. Fourth, and very significantly, this table probably
    1.49 +// preserves more information about field types than stabs do; for
    1.50 +// example, it preserves the fact that a field is a "jlong" rather
    1.51 +// than transforming the type according to the typedef in jni_md.h,
    1.52 +// which allows the Java-side code to identify "Java-sized" fields in
    1.53 +// C++ data structures. If the symbol parsing mechanism was redone
    1.54 +// using stabs, it might still be necessary to have a table somewhere
    1.55 +// containing this information.
    1.56 +//
    1.57 +// Do not change the sizes or signedness of the integer values in
    1.58 +// these data structures; they are fixed over in the serviceability
    1.59 +// agent's Java code (for bootstrapping).
