-      //
-      // We use methods_EMCP() for comparison since constant pool
-      // merging can remove duplicate constant pool entries that were
-      // present in the old method and removed from the rewritten new
-      // method. A faster binary comparison function would consider the
-      // old and new methods to be different when they are actually
-      // EMCP.
-      //
-      // The old and new methods are EMCP and you would think that we
-      // could get rid of one of them here and now and save some space.
-      // However, the concept of EMCP only considers the bytecodes and
-      // the constant pool entries in the comparison. Other things,
-      // e.g., the line number table (LNT) or the local variable table
-      // (LVT) don't count in the comparison. So the new (and EMCP)
-      // method can have a new LNT that we need so we can't just
-      // overwrite the new method with the old method.
-      //
-      // When this routine is called, we have already attached the new
-      // methods to the_class so the old methods are effectively
-      // overwritten. However, if an old method is still executing,
-      // then the old method cannot be collected until sometime after
-      // the old method call has returned. So the overwriting of old
-      // methods by new methods will save us space except for those
-      // (hopefully few) old methods that are still executing.
-      //
-      // A method refers to a constMethodOop and this presents another
-      // possible avenue to space savings. The constMethodOop in the
-      // new method contains possibly new attributes (LNT, LVT, etc).
-      // At first glance, it seems possible to save space by replacing
-      // the constMethodOop in the old method with the constMethodOop
-      // from the new method. The old and new methods would share the
-      // same constMethodOop and we would save the space occupied by
-      // the old constMethodOop. However, the constMethodOop contains
-      // a back reference to the containing method. Sharing the
-      // constMethodOop between two methods could lead to confusion in
-      // the code that uses the back reference. This would lead to
-      // brittle code that could be broken in non-obvious ways now or
-      // in the future.
-      //
-      // Another possibility is to copy the constMethodOop from the new
-      // method to the old method and then overwrite the new method with
-      // the old method. Since the constMethodOop contains the bytecodes
-      // for the method embedded in the oop, this option would change
-      // the bytecodes out from under any threads executing the old
-      // method and make the thread's bcp invalid. Since EMCP requires
-      // that the bytecodes be the same modulo constant pool indices, it
-      // is straight forward to compute the correct new bcp in the new
-      // constMethodOop from the old bcp in the old constMethodOop. The
-      // time consuming part would be searching all the frames in all
-      // of the threads to find all of the calls to the old method.
-      //
-      // It looks like we will have to live with the limited savings
-      // that we get from effectively overwriting the old methods
-      // when the new methods are attached to the_class.

-// Introduction:
-//
-// The RedefineClasses() API is used to change the definition of one or
-// more classes. While the API supports redefining more than one class
-// in a single call, in general, the API is discussed in the context of
-// changing the definition of a single current class to a single new
-// class. For clarity, the current class is will always be called
-// "the_class" and the new class will always be called "scratch_class".
-//
-// The name "the_class" is used because there is only one structure
-// that represents a specific class; redefinition does not replace the
-// structure, but instead replaces parts of the structure. The name
-// "scratch_class" is used because the structure that represents the
-// new definition of a specific class is simply used to carry around
-// the parts of the new definition until they are used to replace the
-// appropriate parts in the_class. Once redefinition of a class is
-// complete, scratch_class is thrown away.
-//
-//
-// Implementation Overview:
-//
-// The RedefineClasses() API is mostly a wrapper around the VM op that
-// does the real work. The work is split in varying degrees between
-// doit_prologue(), doit() and doit_epilogue().
-//
-// 1) doit_prologue() is called by the JavaThread on the way to a
-//    safepoint. It does parameter verification and loads scratch_class
-//    which involves:
-//    - parsing the incoming class definition using the_class' class
-//      loader and security context
-//    - linking scratch_class
-//    - merging constant pools and rewriting bytecodes as needed
-//      for the merged constant pool
-//    - verifying the bytecodes in scratch_class
-//    - setting up the constant pool cache and rewriting bytecodes
-//      as needed to use the cache
-//    - finally, scratch_class is compared to the_class to verify
-//      that it is a valid replacement class
-//    - if everything is good, then scratch_class is saved in an
-//      instance field in the VM operation for the doit() call
-//
-//    Note: A JavaThread must do the above work.
-//
-// 2) doit() is called by the VMThread during a safepoint. It installs
-//    the new class definition(s) which involves:
-//    - retrieving the scratch_class from the instance field in the
-//      VM operation
-//    - house keeping (flushing breakpoints and caches, deoptimizing
-//      dependent compiled code)
-//    - replacing parts in the_class with parts from scratch_class
-//    - adding weak reference(s) to track the obsolete but interesting
-//      parts of the_class
-//    - adjusting constant pool caches and vtables in other classes
-//      that refer to methods in the_class. These adjustments use the
-//      SystemDictionary::classes_do() facility which only allows
-//      a helper method to be specified. The interesting parameters
-//      that we would like to pass to the helper method are saved in
-//      static global fields in the VM operation.
-//    - telling the SystemDictionary to notice our changes
-//
-//    Note: the above work must be done by the VMThread to be safe.
-//
-// 3) doit_epilogue() is called by the JavaThread after the VM op

-//    memory allocated in doit_prologue() and used in doit().

-//
-// Constant Pool Details:
-//
-// When the_class is redefined, we cannot just replace the constant
-// pool in the_class with the constant pool from scratch_class because
-// that could confuse obsolete methods that may still be running.
-// Instead, the constant pool from the_class, old_cp, is merged with
-// the constant pool from scratch_class, scratch_cp. The resulting
-// constant pool, merge_cp, replaces old_cp in the_class.
-//
-// The key part of any merging algorithm is the entry comparison
-// function so we have to know the types of entries in a constant pool
-// in order to merge two of them together. Constant pools can contain
-// up to 12 different kinds of entries; the JVM_CONSTANT_Unicode entry
-// is not presently used so we only have to worry about the other 11
-// entry types. For the purposes of constant pool merging, it is
-// helpful to know that the 11 entry types fall into 3 different
-// subtypes: "direct", "indirect" and "double-indirect".
-//
-// Direct CP entries contain data and do not contain references to
-// other CP entries. The following are direct CP entries:
-//     JVM_CONSTANT_{Double,Float,Integer,Long,Utf8}
-//
-// Indirect CP entries contain 1 or 2 references to a direct CP entry
-// and no other data. The following are indirect CP entries:
-//     JVM_CONSTANT_{Class,NameAndType,String}
-//
-// Double-indirect CP entries contain two references to indirect CP
-// entries and no other data. The following are double-indirect CP
-// entries:
-//     JVM_CONSTANT_{Fieldref,InterfaceMethodref,Methodref}
-//
-// When comparing entries between two constant pools, the entry types
-// are compared first and if they match, then further comparisons are
-// made depending on the entry subtype. Comparing direct CP entries is
-// simply a matter of comparing the data associated with each entry.
-// Comparing both indirect and double-indirect CP entries requires
-// recursion.
-//
-// Fortunately, the recursive combinations are limited because indirect
-// CP entries can only refer to direct CP entries and double-indirect
-// CP entries can only refer to indirect CP entries. The following is
-// an example illustration of the deepest set of indirections needed to
-// access the data associated with a JVM_CONSTANT_Fieldref entry:
-//
-//     JVM_CONSTANT_Fieldref {
-//         class_index => JVM_CONSTANT_Class {
-//             name_index => JVM_CONSTANT_Utf8 {
-//                 <data-1>
-//             }
-//         }
-//         name_and_type_index => JVM_CONSTANT_NameAndType {
-//             name_index => JVM_CONSTANT_Utf8 {
-//                 <data-2>
-//             }
-//             descriptor_index => JVM_CONSTANT_Utf8 {
-//                 <data-3>
-//             }
-//         }
-//     }
-//
-// The above illustration is not a data structure definition for any
-// computer language. The curly braces ('{' and '}') are meant to
-// delimit the context of the "fields" in the CP entry types shown.
-// Each indirection from the JVM_CONSTANT_Fieldref entry is shown via
-// "=>", e.g., the class_index is used to indirectly reference a
-// JVM_CONSTANT_Class entry where the name_index is used to indirectly
-// reference a JVM_CONSTANT_Utf8 entry which contains the interesting
-// <data-1>. In order to understand a JVM_CONSTANT_Fieldref entry, we
-// have to do a total of 5 indirections just to get to the CP entries
-// that contain the interesting pieces of data and then we have to
-// fetch the three pieces of data. This means we have to do a total of
-// (5 + 3) * 2 == 16 dereferences to compare two JVM_CONSTANT_Fieldref
-// entries.
-//
-// Here is the indirection, data and dereference count for each entry
-// type:
-//
-//    JVM_CONSTANT_Class               1 indir, 1 data, 2 derefs
-//    JVM_CONSTANT_Double              0 indir, 1 data, 1 deref
-//    JVM_CONSTANT_Fieldref            2 indir, 3 data, 8 derefs
-//    JVM_CONSTANT_Float               0 indir, 1 data, 1 deref
-//    JVM_CONSTANT_Integer             0 indir, 1 data, 1 deref
-//    JVM_CONSTANT_InterfaceMethodref  2 indir, 3 data, 8 derefs
-//    JVM_CONSTANT_Long                0 indir, 1 data, 1 deref
-//    JVM_CONSTANT_Methodref           2 indir, 3 data, 8 derefs
-//    JVM_CONSTANT_NameAndType         1 indir, 2 data, 4 derefs
-//    JVM_CONSTANT_String              1 indir, 1 data, 2 derefs
-//    JVM_CONSTANT_Utf8                0 indir, 1 data, 1 deref
-//
-// So different subtypes of CP entries require different amounts of
-// work for a proper comparison.
-//
-// Now that we've talked about the different entry types and how to
-// compare them we need to get back to merging. This is not a merge in
-// the "sort -u" sense or even in the "sort" sense. When we merge two
-// constant pools, we copy all the entries from old_cp to merge_cp,
-// preserving entry order. Next we append all the unique entries from
-// scratch_cp to merge_cp and we track the index changes from the
-// location in scratch_cp to the possibly new location in merge_cp.
-// When we are done, any obsolete code that is still running that
-// uses old_cp should not be able to observe any difference if it
-// were to use merge_cp. As for the new code in scratch_class, it is
-// modified to use the appropriate index values in merge_cp before it
-// is used to replace the code in the_class.
-//
-// There is one small complication in copying the entries from old_cp
-// to merge_cp. Two of the CP entry types are special in that they are
-// lazily resolved. Before explaining the copying complication, we need
-// to digress into CP entry resolution.
-//
-// JVM_CONSTANT_Class and JVM_CONSTANT_String entries are present in
-// the class file, but are not stored in memory as such until they are
-// resolved. The entries are not resolved unless they are used because
-// resolution is expensive. During class file parsing the entries are
-// initially stored in memory as JVM_CONSTANT_ClassIndex and
-// JVM_CONSTANT_StringIndex entries. These special CP entry types
-// indicate that the JVM_CONSTANT_Class and JVM_CONSTANT_String entries
-// have been parsed, but the index values in the entries have not been
-// validated. After the entire constant pool has been parsed, the index
-// values can be validated and then the entries are converted into
-// JVM_CONSTANT_UnresolvedClass and JVM_CONSTANT_UnresolvedString
-// entries. During this conversion process, the UTF8 values that are
-// indirectly referenced by the JVM_CONSTANT_ClassIndex and
-// JVM_CONSTANT_StringIndex entries are changed into symbolOops and the
-// entries are modified to refer to the symbolOops. This optimization
-// eliminates one level of indirection for those two CP entry types and
-// gets the entries ready for verification. During class file parsing
-// it is also possible for JVM_CONSTANT_UnresolvedString entries to be
-// resolved into JVM_CONSTANT_String entries. Verification expects to
-// find JVM_CONSTANT_UnresolvedClass and either JVM_CONSTANT_String or
-// JVM_CONSTANT_UnresolvedString entries and not JVM_CONSTANT_Class
-// entries.
-//
-// Now we can get back to the copying complication. When we copy
-// entries from old_cp to merge_cp, we have to revert any
-// JVM_CONSTANT_Class entries to JVM_CONSTANT_UnresolvedClass entries
-// or verification will fail.
-//
-// It is important to explicitly state that the merging algorithm
-// effectively unresolves JVM_CONSTANT_Class entries that were in the
-// old_cp when they are changed into JVM_CONSTANT_UnresolvedClass
-// entries in the merge_cp. This is done both to make verification
-// happy and to avoid adding more brittleness between RedefineClasses
-// and the constant pool cache. By allowing the constant pool cache
-// implementation to (re)resolve JVM_CONSTANT_UnresolvedClass entries
-// into JVM_CONSTANT_Class entries, we avoid having to embed knowledge
-// about those algorithms in RedefineClasses.
-//
-// Appending unique entries from scratch_cp to merge_cp is straight
-// forward for direct CP entries and most indirect CP entries. For the
-// indirect CP entry type JVM_CONSTANT_NameAndType and for the double-
-// indirect CP entry types, the presence of more than one piece of
-// interesting data makes appending the entries more complicated.
-//
-// For the JVM_CONSTANT_{Double,Float,Integer,Long,Utf8} entry types,
-// the entry is simply copied from scratch_cp to the end of merge_cp.
-// If the index in scratch_cp is different than the destination index
-// in merge_cp, then the change in index value is tracked.
-//
-// Note: the above discussion for the direct CP entries also applies
-// to the JVM_CONSTANT_Unresolved{Class,String} entry types.
-//
-// For the JVM_CONSTANT_{Class,String} entry types, since there is only
-// one data element at the end of the recursion, we know that we have
-// either one or two unique entries. If the JVM_CONSTANT_Utf8 entry is
-// unique then it is appended to merge_cp before the current entry.
-// If the JVM_CONSTANT_Utf8 entry is not unique, then the current entry
-// is updated to refer to the duplicate entry in merge_cp before it is
-// appended to merge_cp. Again, any changes in index values are tracked
-// as needed.
-//
-// Note: the above discussion for JVM_CONSTANT_{Class,String} entry
-// types is theoretical. Since those entry types have already been
-// optimized into JVM_CONSTANT_Unresolved{Class,String} entry types,
-// they are handled as direct CP entries.
-//
-// For the JVM_CONSTANT_NameAndType entry type, since there are two
-// data elements at the end of the recursions, we know that we have
-// between one and three unique entries. Any unique JVM_CONSTANT_Utf8
-// entries are appended to merge_cp before the current entry. For any
-// JVM_CONSTANT_Utf8 entries that are not unique, the current entry is
-// updated to refer to the duplicate entry in merge_cp before it is
-// appended to merge_cp. Again, any changes in index values are tracked
-// as needed.
-//
-// For the JVM_CONSTANT_{Fieldref,InterfaceMethodref,Methodref} entry
-// types, since there are two indirect CP entries and three data
-// elements at the end of the recursions, we know that we have between
-// one and six unique entries. See the JVM_CONSTANT_Fieldref diagram
-// above for an example of all six entries. The uniqueness algorithm
-// for the JVM_CONSTANT_Class and JVM_CONSTANT_NameAndType entries is
-// covered above. Any unique entries are appended to merge_cp before
-// the current entry. For any entries that are not unique, the current
-// entry is updated to refer to the duplicate entry in merge_cp before
-// it is appended to merge_cp. Again, any changes in index values are
-// tracked as needed.
-//
-//
-// Other Details:
-//
-// Details for other parts of RedefineClasses need to be written.
-// This is a placeholder section.
-//
-//
-// Open Issues (in no particular order):
-//
-// - How do we serialize the RedefineClasses() API without deadlocking?
-//
-// - SystemDictionary::parse_stream() was called with a NULL protection
-//   domain since the initial version. This has been changed to pass
-//   the_class->protection_domain(). This change has been tested with
-//   all NSK tests and nothing broke, but what will adding it now break
-//   in ways that we don't test?
-//
-// - GenerateOopMap::rewrite_load_or_store() has a comment in its
-//   (indirect) use of the Relocator class that the max instruction
-//   size is 4 bytes. goto_w and jsr_w are 5 bytes and wide/iinc is
-//   6 bytes. Perhaps Relocator only needs a 4 byte buffer to do
-//   what it does to the bytecodes. More investigation is needed.
-//
-// - java.lang.Object methods can be called on arrays. This is
-//   implemented via the arrayKlassOop vtable which we don't
-//   update. For example, if we redefine java.lang.Object.toString(),
-//   then the new version of the method will not be called for array
-//   objects.
-//
-// - How do we know if redefine_single_class() and the guts of
-//   instanceKlass are out of sync? I don't think this can be
-//   automated, but we should probably order the work in
-//   redefine_single_class() to match the order of field
-//   definitions in instanceKlass. We also need to add some
-//   comments about keeping things in sync.
-//
-// - set_new_constant_pool() is huge and we should consider refactoring
-//   it into smaller chunks of work.
-//
-// - The exception table update code in set_new_constant_pool() defines
-//   const values that are also defined in a local context elsewhere.
-//   The same literal values are also used in elsewhere. We need to
-//   coordinate a cleanup of these constants with Runtime.
-//
+// New version that allows arbitrary changes to already loaded classes.
