34 // Events and EventMark provide interfaces to log events taking place in the vm.
35 // This facility is extremly useful for post-mortem debugging. The eventlog
36 // often provides crucial information about events leading up to the crash.
37 //
38 // All arguments past the format string must be passed as an intptr_t.
39 //
40 // To log a single event use:
41 // Events::log("New nmethod has been created " INTPTR_FORMAT, nm);
42 //
43 // To log a block of events use:
44 // EventMark m("GarbageCollecting %d", (intptr_t)gc_number);
45 //
46 // The constructor to eventlog indents the eventlog until the
47 // destructor has been executed.
48 //

50 // Max 3 arguments are saved for each logged event.
51 //
53 // The base event log dumping class that is registered for dumping at
