+//
+//  * LinkResolver::resolve_method (if check_access is true) requires
+//    that the resolving class (the caller) and the defining class of
+//    the resolved method (the callee) agree on each type in the
+//    method's signature.
+//
+//  * LinkResolver::resolve_interface_method performs exactly the same

+//  * LinkResolver::resolve_field requires that the constant pool
+//    attempting to link to a field agree with the field's defining
+//    class about the type of the field signature.
+//
+//  * klassVtable::initialize_vtable requires that, when a class
+//    overrides a vtable entry allocated by a superclass, that the
+//    overriding method (i.e., the callee) agree with the superclass
+//    on each type in the method's signature.
+//
+//  * klassItable::initialize_itable requires that, when a class fills
+//    in its itables, for each non-abstract method installed in an
+//    itable, the method (i.e., the callee) agree with the interface
+//    on each type in the method's signature.
+//
+// All those methods have a boolean (check_access, checkconstraints)
+// which turns off the checks.  This is used from specialized contexts
+// such as bootstrapping, dumping, and debugging.
+//
+// No direct constraint is placed between the class and its
+// supertypes.  Constraints are only placed along linked relations
+// between callers and callees.  When a method overrides or implements
+// an abstract method in a supertype (superclass or interface), the
+// constraints are placed as if the supertype were the caller to the
+// overriding method.  (This works well, since callers to the
+// supertype have already established agreement between themselves and
+// the supertype.)  As a result of all this, a class can disagree with

+// In case we are using compressed oops, we need to be careful.
+// If the object being pushed is an object array, then its length
+// field keeps track of the "grey boundary" at which the next
+// incremental scan will be done (see ParGCArrayScanChunk).
+// When using compressed oops, this length field is kept in the
+// lower 32 bits of the erstwhile klass word and cannot be used
+// for the overflow chaining pointer (OCP below). As such the OCP
+// would itself need to be compressed into the top 32-bits in this
+// case. Unfortunately, see below, in the event that we have a
+// promotion failure, the node to be pushed on the list can be
+// outside of the Java heap, so the heap-based pointer compression
+// would not work (we would have potential aliasing between C-heap
+// and Java-heap pointers). For this reason, when using compressed
+// oops, we simply use a worker-thread-local, non-shared overflow
+// list in the form of a growable array, with a slightly different
+// overflow stack draining strategy. If/when we start using fat
+// stacks here, we can go back to using (fat) pointer chains
+// (although some performance comparisons would be useful since
+// single global lists have their own performance disadvantages
+// as we were made painfully aware not long ago, see 6786503).
