Peter, Paul, thanks for the feedback!

Updated the webrev in place: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~vlivanov/8079205/webrev.02

I am not an export in the HS area but the code mostly made sense to me. I also like Peter's suggestion of Context implementing Runnable. I agree. Integrated.

Some minor comments.

CallSite.java: 145 private final long dependencies = 0; // Used by JVM to store JVMnmethodBucket* It's a little odd to see this field be final, but i think i understand the motivation as it's essentially acting as a memory address pointing to the head of the nbucket list, so in Java code you don't want to assign it to anything other than 0. Yes, my motivation was to forbid reads & writes of the field from Java code. I was experimenting with injecting the field by VM, but it's less attractive.

Is VM access, via javalanginvokeCallSiteContext, affected by treating final fields as really final in the j.l.i package? No, field modifiers aren't respected. oopDesc::*field[get|put] does a raw read/write using field offset.

javaClasses.hpp:

1182 static oop context(oop site); 1183 static void setcontext(oop site, oop context); Is setcontext required? Good point. Removed.

instanceKlass.cpp:

1876 // recording of dependecies. Returns true if the bucket is ready for reclamation. typo "dependecies" Fixed.

Best regards, Vladimir Ivanov
