28 // An NmethodSweeper is an incremental cleaner for:
29 // - cleanup inline caches
30 // - reclamation of nmethods
31 // Removing nmethods from the code cache includes two operations
32 // 1) mark active nmethods
33 // Is done in 'mark_active_nmethods()'. This function is called at a
34 // safepoint and marks all nmethods that are active on a thread's stack.
35 // 2) sweep nmethods
36 // Is done in sweep_code_cache(). This function is the only place in the
37 // sweeper where memory is reclaimed. Note that sweep_code_cache() is not
38 // called at a safepoint. However, sweep_code_cache() stops executing if
39 // another thread requests a safepoint. Consequently, 'mark_active_nmethods()'
40 // and sweep_code_cache() cannot execute at the same time.
41 // To reclaim memory, nmethods are first marked as 'not-entrant'. Methods can
42 // be made not-entrant by (i) the sweeper, (ii) deoptimization, (iii) dependency
43 // invalidation, and (iv) being replaced be a different method version (tiered
44 // compilation). Not-entrant nmethod cannot be called by Java threads, but they
45 // can still be active on the stack. To ensure that active nmethod are not reclaimed,
46 // we have to wait until the next marking phase has completed. If a not-entrant
47 // nmethod was NOT marked as active, it can be converted to 'zombie' state. To safely
48 // remove the nmethod, all inline caches (IC) that point to the the nmethod must be
49 // cleared. After that, the nmethod can be evicted from the code cache. Each nmethod's
50 // state change happens during separate sweeps. It may take at least 3 sweeps before an
51 // nmethod's space is freed. Sweeping is currently done by compiler threads between
52 // compilations or at least each 5 sec (NmethodSweepCheckInterval) when the code cache
53 // is full.
