Instruction Scheduling in the C2 Compiler (original) (raw)

Greetings,

        I am inquiring as to what would be a good starting point to 

get familiar with the current instruction scheduling capabilities of the C2 compiler in hotspot. I am relatively new to working with Hotspot and have primarily been working with the macro-assembler and will now be looking at the instruction scheduling abilities. I am going through the source code now but I am not exactly sure where instruction scheduling is done. The OpenJDK wiki also seems to be somewhat empty on this and the compiler passes in general.

Thanks in advance, Ahmed
