public class MSMutator
extends StopTheWorldMutator

This class implements per-mutator thread behavior and state for the MS plan, which implements a full-heap mark-sweep collector.

Specifically, this class defines MS mutator-time allocation and per-mutator thread collection semantics (flushing and restoring per-mutator allocator state).

Method Detail

alloc

public Address alloc(int bytes,
                     int align,
                     int offset,
                     int allocator,
                     int site)
Allocate memory for an object.

This class handles the default allocator from the mark sweep space, and delegates everything else to the superclass.

Overrides:
alloc in class MutatorContext
Parameters:
bytes - The number of bytes required for the object.
align - Required alignment for the object.
offset - Offset associated with the alignment.
allocator - The allocator associated with this request.
site - Allocation site
Returns:
The low address of the allocated chunk.

postAlloc

public void postAlloc(ObjectReference ref,
                      ObjectReference typeRef,
                      int bytes,
                      int allocator)
Perform post-allocation actions. For many allocators none are required.

Initialize the object header for objects in the mark-sweep space, and delegate to the superclass for other objects.

Overrides:
postAlloc in class MutatorContext
Parameters:
ref - The newly allocated object
typeRef - the type reference for the instance being created
bytes - The size of the space to be allocated (in bytes)
allocator - The allocator number to be used for this allocation

getAllocatorFromSpace

public Allocator getAllocatorFromSpace(Space space)
Description copied from class: MutatorContext
Return the allocator instance associated with a space space, for this plan instance.

Overrides:
getAllocatorFromSpace in class MutatorContext
Parameters:
space - The space for which the allocator instance is desired.
Returns:
The allocator instance associated with this plan instance which is allocating into space, or null if no appropriate allocator can be established.

collectionPhase

public void collectionPhase(short phaseId,
                            boolean primary)
Perform a per-mutator collection phase. This is executed by one collector thread on behalf of a mutator thread.

Overrides:
collectionPhase in class SimpleMutator
Parameters:
phaseId - The unique phase identifier
primary - Should this thread be used to execute any single-threaded local operations?

flush

public void flush()
Description copied from class: MutatorContext
Flush mutator context, in response to a requestMutatorFlush. Also called by the default implementation of deinitMutator.

Overrides:
flush in class MutatorContext
