 // The system dictionary stores all loaded classes and maps:

 //

 //   [class name,class loader] -> class   i.e.  [symbolOop,oop] -> klassOop

 //

 // Classes are loaded lazily. The default VM class loader is

 // represented as NULL.

 // The underlying data structure is an open hash table with a fixed number

 // of buckets. During loading the loader object is locked, (for the VM loader

 // a private lock object is used). Class loading can thus be done concurrently,

 // but only by different loaders.

 //

 // During loading a placeholder (name, loader) is temporarily placed in

 // a side data structure, and is used to detect ClassCircularityErrors

 // and to perform verification during GC.  A GC can occur in the midst

 // of class loading, as we call out to Java, have to take locks, etc.

 //

 // When class loading is finished, a new entry is added to the system

 // dictionary and the place holder is removed. Note that the protection

 // domain field of the system dictionary has not yet been filled in when

 // the "real" system dictionary entry is created.

 //

 // Clients of this class who are interested in finding if a class has

 // been completely loaded -- not classes in the process of being loaded --

 // can read the SystemDictionary unlocked. This is safe because

 //    - entries are only deleted at safepoints

 //    - readers cannot come to a safepoint while actively examining

 //         an entry  (an entry cannot be deleted from under a reader)

 //    - entries must be fully formed before they are available to concurrent

 //         readers (we must ensure write ordering)

 //

 // Note that placeholders are deleted at any time, as they are removed

 // when a class is completely loaded. Therefore, readers as well as writers

 // of placeholders must hold the SystemDictionary_lock.

 // preloading is actually performed by initialize_preloaded_classes.
