Class SimpleRelinkableCallSite

All Implemented Interfaces:
RelinkableCallSite

public class SimpleRelinkableCallSite extends AbstractRelinkableCallSite
A relinkable call site that implements monomorphic inline caching strategy, only being linked to a single GuardedInvocation at any given time. If the guard of that single invocation fails, or it has an invalidated switch point, or its invalidating exception triggered, then the call site will throw it away and ask its associated DynamicLinker to relink it.

    Modifier and Type
    Method
    Description
    void
    relink(GuardedInvocation guardedInvocation, MethodHandle relinkAndInvoke)
    This method will be called by the dynamic linker every time the call site is relinked (but see RelinkableCallSite.resetAndRelink(GuardedInvocation, MethodHandle) for an exception).
    void
    resetAndRelink(GuardedInvocation guardedInvocation, MethodHandle relinkAndInvoke)
    This method will be called by the dynamic linker every time the call site is relinked and the linker wishes the call site to throw away any prior linkage state (that is how it differs from RelinkableCallSite.relink(GuardedInvocation, MethodHandle)).

    Method
    Description
    Returns the descriptor for this call site.
    void
    initialize(MethodHandle relinkAndInvoke)
    Invoked by dynamic linker to initialize the relinkable call site by setting a relink-and-invoke method handle.

    Modifier and Type
    Method
    Description
    Produces a method handle equivalent to an invokedynamic instruction which has been linked to this call site.
    Returns the target method of the call site, which behaves like a normal field of the MutableCallSite.
    void
    Updates the target method of this call site, as a normal variable.
    static void
    Performs a synchronization operation on each call site in the given array, forcing all other threads to throw away any cached values previously loaded from the target of any of the call sites.

    • SimpleRelinkableCallSite

      public SimpleRelinkableCallSite(CallSiteDescriptor descriptor)
      Creates a new call site with monomorphic inline caching strategy.
      Parameters:
      descriptor - the descriptor for this call site
  • Method Details

    • relink

      public void relink(GuardedInvocation guardedInvocation, MethodHandle relinkAndInvoke)
      Description copied from interface: RelinkableCallSite
      This method will be called by the dynamic linker every time the call site is relinked (but see RelinkableCallSite.resetAndRelink(GuardedInvocation, MethodHandle) for an exception). It will be passed a GuardedInvocation that the call site should incorporate into its target method handle. When this method is called, the call site is allowed to keep other non-invalidated invocations around for implementation of polymorphic inline caches and compose them with this invocation to form its final target.
      Parameters:
      guardedInvocation - the guarded invocation that the call site should incorporate into its target method handle.
      relinkAndInvoke - a relink-and-invoke method handle. This is a method handle matching the method type of the call site that is supplied by the DynamicLinker as a callback. It should be used by this call site as the ultimate fallback when it can't invoke its target with the passed arguments. The fallback method is such that when it's invoked, it'll try to obtain an adequate target GuardedInvocation for the invocation, and subsequently invoke RelinkableCallSite.relink(GuardedInvocation, MethodHandle) or RelinkableCallSite.resetAndRelink(GuardedInvocation, MethodHandle), and finally invoke the target.
    • resetAndRelink

      public void resetAndRelink(GuardedInvocation guardedInvocation, MethodHandle relinkAndInvoke)
      Description copied from interface: RelinkableCallSite
      This method will be called by the dynamic linker every time the call site is relinked and the linker wishes the call site to throw away any prior linkage state (that is how it differs from RelinkableCallSite.relink(GuardedInvocation, MethodHandle)). It will be passed a GuardedInvocation that the call site should use to build its new target method handle. When this method is called, the call site is discouraged from keeping any previous state, and is supposed to only link the current invocation.
      Parameters:
      guardedInvocation - the guarded invocation that the call site should use to build its target method handle.
      relinkAndInvoke - a relink-and-invoke method handle. This is a method handle matching the method type of the call site that is supplied by the DynamicLinker as a callback. It should be used by this call site as the ultimate fallback when it can't invoke its target with the passed arguments. The fallback method is such that when it's invoked, it'll try to obtain an adequate target GuardedInvocation for the invocation, and subsequently invoke RelinkableCallSite.relink(GuardedInvocation, MethodHandle) or RelinkableCallSite.resetAndRelink(GuardedInvocation, MethodHandle), and finally invoke the target.
