I agree. I'll address your concerns in the context of this review thread for \
JDK-8238585 below.
In addition I would suggest to take the general part of the discussion to a dedicated \
thread or to the review thread for JDK-8242427. I would like to keep this thread \
closer to its subject.

It is not too complex, what EnterInterpOnlyModeClosure::do_thread() is doing. I \
already added a paragraph to the JBS-Item [1] explaining why the direct handshake is \
sufficient from a synchronization point of view.
Furthermore the stack is walked and the return pc of compiled frames is replaced with \
the address of the deopt handler.
I can't see why this cannot be done with a direct handshake. Something very similar \
is already done in JavaThread::deoptimize_marked_methods() which is executed as part \
of an ordinary handshake.
The demand on stack-space should be very modest. I would not expect a higher risk for \
stackoverflow.

The thread in EnterInterpOnlyModeClosure::do_thread() can't become \
safepoint/handshake safe. I tested locally test/hotspot/jtreg:vmTestbase_nsk_jvmti \
with a NoSafepointVerifier.

See again my arguments in the JBS item [1].
Thanks,

Hi all,
Not a review but some general commentary ...

I'm growing increasingly concerned that use of direct handshakes to
replace VM operations needs a much greater examination for correctness
than might initially be thought. I see a number of issues:
First, the VMThread executes (most) VM operations with a clean stack in
a clean state, so it has lots of room to work. If we now execute the
same logic in a JavaThread then we risk hitting stackoverflows if
nothing else. But we are also now executing code in a JavaThread and so
we have to be sure that code is not going to act differently (in a bad
way) if executed by a JavaThread rather than the VMThread. For example,
may it be possible that if executing in the VMThread we defer some
activity that might require execution of Java code, or else hand it off
to one of the service threads? If we execute that code directly in the
current JavaThread instead we may not be in a valid state (e.g. consider
re-entrancy to various subsystems that is not allowed).
Second, we have this question mark over what happens if the operation
hits further safepoint or handshake polls/checks? Are there constraints
on what is allowed here? How can we recognise this problem may exist and
so deal with it?
Third, while we are generally considering what appear to be
single-thread operations, which should be amenable to a direct
handshake, we also have to be careful that some of the code involved
doesn't already expect/assume we are at a safepoint - e.g. a VM op may
not need to take a lock where a direct handshake might!
Cheers,
David
