// This class describes operations to implement Store-Free Biased
// Locking. The high-level properties of the scheme are similar to
// IBM's lock reservation, Dice-Moir-Scherer QR locks, and other biased
// locking mechanisms. The principal difference is in the handling of
// recursive locking which is how this technique achieves a more
// efficient fast path than these other schemes.
//
// The basic observation is that in HotSpot's current fast locking
// scheme, recursive locking (in the fast path) causes no update to
// the object header. The recursion is described simply by stack
// records containing a specific value (NULL). Only the last unlock by
// a given thread causes an update to the object header.
//
// This observation, coupled with the fact that HotSpot only compiles
// methods for which monitor matching is obeyed (and which therefore
// can not throw IllegalMonitorStateException), implies that we can
// completely eliminate modifications to the object header for
// recursive locking in compiled code, and perform similar recursion
// checks and throwing of IllegalMonitorStateException in the
// interpreter with little or no impact on the performance of the fast
// path.
//
// The basic algorithm is as follows (note, see below for more details
// and information). A pattern in the low three bits is reserved in
// the object header to indicate whether biasing of a given object's
// lock is currently being done or is allowed at all. If the bias
// pattern is present, the contents of the rest of the header are
// either the JavaThread* of the thread to which the lock is biased,
// or NULL, indicating that the lock is "anonymously biased". The
// first thread which locks an anonymously biased object biases the
// lock toward that thread. If another thread subsequently attempts to
// lock the same object, the bias is revoked.
//
// Because there are no updates to the object header at all during
// recursive locking while the lock is biased, the biased lock entry
// code is simply a test of the object header's value. If this test
// succeeds, the lock has been acquired by the thread. If this test
// fails, a bit test is done to see whether the bias bit is still
// set. If not, we fall back to HotSpot's original CAS-based locking
// scheme. If it is set, we attempt to CAS in a bias toward this
// thread. The latter operation is expected to be the rarest operation
// performed on these locks. We optimistically expect the biased lock
// entry to hit most of the time, and want the CAS-based fallthrough
// to occur quickly in the situations where the bias has been revoked.
//
// Revocation of the lock's bias is fairly straightforward. We want to
// restore the object's header and stack-based BasicObjectLocks and
// BasicLocks to the state they would have been in had the object been
// locked by HotSpot's usual fast locking scheme. To do this, we bring
// the system to a safepoint and walk the stack of the thread toward
// which the lock is biased. We find all of the lock records on the
// stack corresponding to this object, in particular the first /
// "highest" record. We fill in the highest lock record with the
// object's displaced header (which is a well-known value given that
// we don't maintain an identity hash nor age bits for the object
// while it's in the biased state) and all other lock records with 0,
// the value for recursive locks. When the safepoint is released, the
// formerly-biased thread and all other threads revert back to
// HotSpot's CAS-based locking.
//
// This scheme can not handle transfers of biases of single objects
// from thread to thread efficiently, but it can handle bulk transfers
// of such biases, which is a usage pattern showing up in some
// applications and benchmarks. We implement "bulk rebias" and "bulk
// revoke" operations using a "bias epoch" on a per-data-type basis.
// If too many bias revocations are occurring for a particular data
// type, the bias epoch for the data type is incremented at a
// safepoint, effectively meaning that all previous biases are
// invalid. The fast path locking case checks for an invalid epoch in
// the object header and attempts to rebias the object with a CAS if
// found, avoiding safepoints or bulk heap sweeps (the latter which
// was used in a prior version of this algorithm and did not scale
// well). If too many bias revocations persist, biasing is completely
// disabled for the data type by resetting the prototype header to the
// unbiased markOop. The fast-path locking code checks to see whether
// the instance's bias pattern differs from the prototype header's and
// causes the bias to be revoked without reaching a safepoint or,
// again, a bulk heap sweep.
