Hi,
The MacroAssembler::cmpheapoop member function on x86 is not currently used anywhere in hotspot. Moreover, it is no longer safe to use it with modern GCs using load barriers. Since it is unsafe to use and is not used today, it should be removed. Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~eosterlund/8201167/webrev.00/ Thanks, /Erik
looks good.
