Hi all,

can I have reviews for the backport of "8066875: VirtualSpace does not use large pages" for 8u60? I also would like to have one review from the compiler team (cc'ed) since the change touches some compiler files.

It did only apply with minor changes, so I need re-reviews. The problem is that in jdk9 the code cache sizing has been changed. In particular:

Note that this change is based on "8049864: TestParallelHeapSizeFlags fails with unexpected heap size" which is also out for review (on hotspot-gc-dev), and "8053995: Add method to WhiteBox to get vm_pagesize" which applies cleanly.

Full 8u60 changeset: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~tschatzl/8066875-8u60/webrev.8u60/ Fix changeset: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~tschatzl/8066875-8u60/webrev.8u60-fix/

CR: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8066875 Original change: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/hotspot/rev/4321214d5dbc

Testing: jprt

With that changeset in place, JDK-8058354 can be merged relatively easily, which is the goal of most of the recent backports.

Thanks, Thomas
