    28 /**
       
    29  * The management interface for a memory pool.  A memory pool
       
    30  * represents the memory resource managed by the Java virtual machine
       
    31  * and is managed by one or more {@link MemoryManagerMXBean memory managers}.
       
    32  *
       
    33  * <p> A Java virtual machine has one or more instances of the
       
    34  * implementation class of this interface.  An instance
       
    35  * implementing this interface is
       
    36  * an <a href="ManagementFactory.html#MXBean">MXBean</a>
       
    37  * that can be obtained by calling
       
    38  * the {@link ManagementFactory#getMemoryPoolMXBeans} method or
       
    39  * from the {@link ManagementFactory#getPlatformMBeanServer
       
    40  * platform MBeanServer} method.
       
    41  *
       
    42  * <p>The {@code ObjectName} for uniquely identifying the MXBean for
       
    43  * a memory pool within an {@code MBeanServer} is:
       
    44  * <blockquote>
       
    45  *    {@link ManagementFactory#MEMORY_POOL_MXBEAN_DOMAIN_TYPE
       
    46  *    java.lang:type=MemoryPool}{@code ,name=}<i>pool's name</i>
       
    47  * </blockquote>
       
    48  *
       
    49  * It can be obtained by calling the
       
    50  * {@link PlatformManagedObject#getObjectName} method.
       
    51  *
       
    52  * <h3>Memory Type</h3>
       
    53  * <p>The Java virtual machine has a heap for object allocation and also
       
    54  * maintains non-heap memory for the method area and the Java virtual
       
    55  * machine execution.  The Java virtual machine can have one or more
       
    56  * memory pools.  Each memory pool represents a memory area
       
    57  * of one of the following types:
       
    58  * <ul>
       
    59  *   <li>{@link MemoryType#HEAP heap}</li>
       
    60  *   <li>{@link MemoryType#NON_HEAP non-heap}</li>
       
    61  * </ul>
       
    62  *
       
    63  * <h3>Memory Usage Monitoring</h3>
       
    64  *
       
    65  * A memory pool has the following attributes:
       
    66  * <ul>
       
    67  *   <li><a href="#Usage">Memory usage</a></li>
       
    68  *   <li><a href="#PeakUsage">Peak memory usage</a></li>
       
    69  *   <li><a href="#UsageThreshold">Usage Threshold</a></li>
       
    70  *   <li><a href="#CollectionThreshold">Collection Usage Threshold</a>
       
    71  *       (only supported by some <em>garbage-collected</em> memory pools)</li>
       
    72  * </ul>
       
    73  *
       
    74  * <h3><a id="Usage">1. Memory Usage</a></h3>
       
    75  *
       
    76  * The {@link #getUsage} method provides an estimate
       
    77  * of the current usage of a memory pool.
       
    78  * For a garbage-collected memory pool, the amount of used memory
       
    79  * includes the memory occupied by all objects in the pool
       
    80  * including both <em>reachable</em> and <em>unreachable</em> objects.
       
    81  *
       
    82  * <p>In general, this method is a lightweight operation for getting
       
    83  * an approximate memory usage.  For some memory pools, for example,
       
    84  * when objects are not packed contiguously, this method may be
       
    85  * an expensive operation that requires some computation to determine
       
    86  * the current memory usage.  An implementation should document when
       
    87  * this is the case.
       
    88  *
       
    89  * <h3><a id="PeakUsage">2. Peak Memory Usage</a></h3>
       
    90  *
       
    91  * The Java virtual machine maintains the peak memory usage of a memory
       
    92  * pool since the virtual machine was started or the peak was reset.
       
    93  * The peak memory usage is returned by the {@link #getPeakUsage} method
       
    94  * and reset by calling the {@link #resetPeakUsage} method.
       
    95  *
       
    96  * <h3><a id="UsageThreshold">3. Usage Threshold</a></h3>
       
    97  *
       
    98  * Each memory pool has a manageable attribute
       
    99  * called the <i>usage threshold</i> which has a default value supplied
       
   100  * by the Java virtual machine.  The default value is platform-dependent.
       
   101  * The usage threshold can be set via the
       
   102  * {@link #setUsageThreshold setUsageThreshold} method.
       
   103  * If the threshold is set to a positive value, the usage threshold crossing
       
   104  * checking is enabled in this memory pool.
       
   105  * If the usage threshold is set to zero, usage
       
   106  * threshold crossing checking on this memory pool is disabled.
       
   107  * The {@link MemoryPoolMXBean#isUsageThresholdSupported} method can
       
   108  * be used to determine if this functionality is supported.
       
   109  * <p>
       
   110  * A Java virtual machine performs usage threshold crossing checking on a
       
   111  * memory pool basis at its best appropriate time, typically,
       
   112  * at garbage collection time.
       
   113  * Each memory pool maintains a {@link #getUsageThresholdCount
       
   114  * usage threshold count} that will get incremented
       
   115  * every time when the Java virtual machine
       
   116  * detects that the memory pool usage is crossing the threshold.
       
   117  * <p>
       
   118  * This manageable usage threshold attribute is designed for monitoring the
       
   119  * increasing trend of memory usage with low overhead.
       
   120  * Usage threshold may not be appropriate for some memory pools.
       
   121  * For example, a generational garbage collector, a common garbage collection
       
   122  * algorithm used in many Java virtual machine implementations,
       
   123  * manages two or more generations segregating objects by age.
       
   124  * Most of the objects are allocated in
       
   125  * the <em>youngest generation</em> (say a nursery memory pool).
       
   126  * The nursery memory pool is designed to be filled up and
       
   127  * collecting the nursery memory pool will free most of its memory space
       
   128  * since it is expected to contain mostly short-lived objects
       
   129  * and mostly are unreachable at garbage collection time.
       
   130  * In this case, it is more appropriate for the nursery memory pool
       
   131  * not to support a usage threshold.  In addition,
       
   132  * if the cost of an object allocation
       
   133  * in one memory pool is very low (for example, just atomic pointer exchange),
       
   134  * the Java virtual machine would probably not support the usage threshold
       
   135  * for that memory pool since the overhead in comparing the usage with
       
   136  * the threshold is higher than the cost of object allocation.
       
   137  *
       
   138  * <p>
       
   139  * The memory usage of the system can be monitored using
       
   140  * <a href="#Polling">polling</a> or
       
   141  * <a href="#ThresholdNotification">threshold notification</a> mechanisms.

   145  *       <p>
       
   146  *       An application can continuously monitor its memory usage
       
   147  *       by calling either the {@link #getUsage} method for all
       
   148  *       memory pools or the {@link #isUsageThresholdExceeded} method
       
   149  *       for those memory pools that support a usage threshold.
       
   150  *       Below is example code that has a thread dedicated for
       
   151  *       task distribution and processing.  At every interval,
       
   152  *       it will determine if it should receive and process new tasks based
       
   153  *       on its memory usage.  If the memory usage exceeds its usage threshold,
       
   154  *       it will redistribute all outstanding tasks to other VMs and
       
   155  *       stop receiving new tasks until the memory usage returns
       
   156  *       below its usage threshold.
       
   157  *
       
   158  *       <pre>
       
   159  *       // Assume the usage threshold is supported for this pool.
       
   160  *       // Set the threshold to myThreshold above which no new tasks
       
   161  *       // should be taken.
       
   162  *       pool.setUsageThreshold(myThreshold);
       
   163  *       ....

   165  *       boolean lowMemory = false;
       
   166  *       while (true) {
       
   167  *          if (pool.isUsageThresholdExceeded()) {
       
   168  *              // potential low memory, so redistribute tasks to other VMs

   176  *                  lowMemory = false;
       
   177  *                  resumeReceivingTasks();
       
   178  *              }
       
   179  *              // processing outstanding task
       
   180  *              ...

   192  *       The above example does not differentiate the case where
       
   193  *       the memory usage has temporarily dropped below the usage threshold
       
   194  *       from the case where the memory usage remains above the threshold

   196  *       the {@link #getUsageThresholdCount} method
       
   197  *       can be used to determine

   308  *
       
   309  * Collection usage threshold is a manageable attribute only applicable
       
   310  * to some garbage-collected memory pools.
       
   311  * After a Java virtual machine has expended effort in reclaiming memory
       
   312  * space by recycling unused objects in a memory pool at garbage collection
       
   313  * time, some number of bytes in the memory pools that are garbaged
       
   314  * collected will still be in use.  The collection usage threshold
       
   315  * allows a value to be set for this number of bytes such
       
   316  * that if the threshold is exceeded,
       
   317  * a {@link MemoryNotificationInfo#MEMORY_THRESHOLD_EXCEEDED
       
   318  * collection usage threshold exceeded notification}
       
   319  * will be emitted by the {@link MemoryMXBean}.
       
   320  * In addition, the {@link #getCollectionUsageThresholdCount
       
   321  * collection usage threshold count} will then be incremented.
       
   322  *
       
   323  * <p>
       
   324  * The {@link MemoryPoolMXBean#isCollectionUsageThresholdSupported} method can
       
   325  * be used to determine if this functionality is supported.
       
   326  *
       
   327  * <p>
       
   328  * A Java virtual machine performs collection usage threshold checking
       
   329  * on a memory pool basis.  This checking is enabled if the collection
       
   330  * usage threshold is set to a positive value.
       
   331  * If the collection usage threshold is set to zero, this checking
       
   332  * is disabled on this memory pool.  Default value is zero.
       
   333  * The Java virtual machine performs the collection usage threshold
       
   334  * checking at garbage collection time.
       
   335  *
       
   336  * <p>
       
   337  * Some garbage-collected memory pools may
       
   338  * choose not to support the collection usage threshold.  For example,
       
   339  * a memory pool is only managed by a continuous concurrent garbage
       
   340  * collector.  Objects can be allocated in this memory pool by some thread
       
   341  * while the unused objects are reclaimed by the concurrent garbage
       
   342  * collector simultaneously.  Unless there is a well-defined
       
   343  * garbage collection time which is the best appropriate time
       
   344  * to check the memory usage, the collection usage threshold should not
       
   345  * be supported.
       
   346  *
       
   347  * <p>
       
   348  * The collection usage threshold is designed for monitoring the memory usage
       
   349  * after the Java virtual machine has expended effort in reclaiming
       
   350  * memory space.  The collection usage could also be monitored
       
   351  * by the polling and threshold notification mechanism
       
   352  * described above for the <a href="#UsageThreshold">usage threshold</a>
       
   353  * in a similar fashion.
