+<p><i class="fa fa-exclamation-triangle" aria-hidden="true"></i> <strong>Restriction:</strong> This system property is supported only on Java&trade; 11 and later</p>
+<p>If you have enabled GPU processing with <code>-Dcom.ibm.gpu.enable</code>, use this system property to turn off processing that can be offloaded to a graphics processing unit (GPU).</p>
+<h2 id="syntax">Syntax</h2>
+<pre><code>    -Dcom.ibm.gpu.disable
+</code></pre>
+<h2 id="explanation">Explanation</h2>
+<p>Because establishing and completing communication with a GPU incurs an additional overhead, not all processing requirements benefit from being offloaded to the GPU. GPU processing is therefore disabled by default. However, if you have enabled GPU processing with <code>-Dcom.ibm.gpu.enable</code>, this property turns GPU processing off.</p>

+<p>Use this system property to control the type of processing that can be offloaded to a graphics processing unit (GPU) when processing requirements meet a specific threshold. This feature can improve the performance of certain Java functions.</p>

The first part is a summary that records each available class loader (<code>2CLTEXTCLLOADER</code>) followed by the number of libraries and classes that it loaded. This information is followed by a more detailed list of libraries (<code>1CLTEXTCLLIB</code>) and classes (<code>1CLTEXTCLLO</code>) that are loaded.</p>
 <p>In the example you can see that the <code>java/lang/InternalAnonymousClassLoader</code> loaded 2 classes, <code>jdk/internal/loader/BuiltinClassLoader$$Lambda$2/00000000F03876A0(0x0000000001030F00)</code> and              <code>jdk/internal/loader/BuiltinClassLoader$$Lambda$1/00000000F00D2460(0x0000000001018A00)</code>.</p>

 <p>A special mode of the <code>gencon</code> policy is known as <em>Concurrent Scavenge</em> (<code>-Xgc:concurrentScavenge</code>), which aims to minimize the time spent in stop-the-world pauses by collecting nursery garbage in parallel with running application threads.

The GS Facility provides hardware-based support to detect when potentially stale references to objects are accessed by an application. This means that the garbage collector can start processing objects in parts of the heap without halting an application because the GS Facility is on hand to spot accesses to an object and send a notification. The object that was ready to be swept away can be moved, and references to it can be reset. You can read more about this mode in the following blog posts:</p>

 <p>This user documentation supports the configuration, tuning, and diagnosis of the OpenJ9 VM in an OpenJDK runtime. However, due to differences between the Java SE class libraries, specific options might apply only to one Java SE version. Icons are used to indicate where differences apply. For example:</p>
 <p><img alt="Start of content that applies only to Java 8 (LTS)" src="cr/java8.png" /> This sentence applies only to Java 8 binaries that include the OpenJ9 VM. Icons for LTS releases are this colour. <img alt="End of content that applies only to Java 8 (LTS)" src="cr/java_close_lts.png" /></p>
-<p><img alt="Start of content that applies only to Java 12 and later" src="cr/java12plus.png" /> This sentence applies only to Java 12 or later binaries that include the OpenJ9 VM. Icons for feature releases are this colour. <img alt="End of content that applies only to Java 12 or later" src="cr/java_close.png" /></p>
+<p><img alt="Start of content that applies only to Java 13 and later" src="cr/java13plus.png" /> This sentence applies only to Java 13 or later binaries that include the OpenJ9 VM. Icons for feature releases are this colour. <img alt="End of content that applies only to Java 13 or later" src="cr/java_close.png" /></p>
 <p>To see which Java releases are LTS releases and which are feature releases, and for information about release cadence, supported platforms, and build environments, see <a href="openj9_support/">Supported environments</a>.</p>
 <p><i class="fa fa-pencil-square-o" aria-hidden="true"></i> <strong>Note:</strong> Documentation to support OpenJ9 is still under construction. The current content covers
 some high level information about OpenJ9 components together with the command-line options and environment variables that you can use to configure the VM when you start your application. We expect further content to be contributed over time. Because OpenJ9 was contributed to the Eclipse Foundation by IBM, this content contains some links to additional information that forms part of the <a href="https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSYKE2/welcome_javasdk_family.html">IBM&reg; SDK, Java&trade; Technology Edition product documentation</a> in IBM Knowledge Center. That content supplements the documentation here until a more complete set of user documentation is available.</p>

 <p>OpenJDK uses the in-built Java cryptographic implementation by default. However, native cryptographic implementations
 typically provide better performance. OpenSSL is a native open source cryptographic toolkit for Transport Layer Security (TLS) and
 Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols, which is well established and used with many enterprise applications. The OpenSSL V1.0.x and V1.1.x implementations are currently supported for the Digest, CBC, GCM, and RSA algorithms. The OpenSSL V1.1.x implementation is also supported for the ChaCha20 and ChaCha20-Poly1305 algorithms.</p>

 <p>On Linux and AIX platforms, the OpenSSL 1.0.x or 1.1.x library is expected to be found on the system path. If you use a package manager to install OpenSSL, the system path will be updated automatically. On other platforms, the OpenSSL 1.1.x library is currently bundled with the binaries from AdoptOpenJDK.</p>
 <p>OpenSSL support is enabled by default for all supported algorithms. If you want to limit support to specific algorithms, a number of
 system properties are available for tuning the implementation.</p>
 <p>Each algorithm can be disabled individually by setting the following system properties on the command line:</p>
 <ul>
-<li>To turn off <strong>Digest</strong>, set <code>-Djdk.nativeDigest=false</code> (See <strong>Restriction</strong>. This system property cannot be used to enable the Digest algorithm)</li>

Installation pre-requisites If you obtain binaries from the AdoptOpenJDK community, the following pre-requisites are required: OpenJDK binaries for Linux and AIX platforms from the AdoptOpenJDK community no longer bundle the OpenSSL cryptographic library. The library is expected to be found on the system path. If you want to use OpenSSL cryptographic acceleration, you must install OpenSSL 1.0.2 or 1.1.X on your system. If the library is not found on the system path, the in-built Java crytographic implementation is used instead, which performs less well.

These options include: System properties Standard options Nonstandard (or -X) options -XX options Although the command line is the traditional way to specify command-line options, you can also pass options to the OpenJ9 virtual machine (VM) by using a manifest file, options files, and environment variables. Options specified on the command line override the equivalent environment variables. For example, specifying java -cp <dir1> completely overrides setting the environment variable CLASSPATH=<dir2> . Quotation marks Use single or double quotation marks for command-line options only when explicitly directed to do so. Single and double quotation marks have different meanings on different platforms, operating systems, and shells. Do not use '-X<option>' or \"-X<option>\" . Instead, you must use -X<option> . For example, do not use '-Xmx500m' and \"-Xmx500m\" . Write this option as -Xmx500m . Precedence The sequence of the Java options on the command line defines which options take precedence during startup. Rightmost options have precedence over leftmost options. In the following example, the -Xjit option takes precedence: java -Xint -Xjit myClass At startup, the list of VM arguments is constructed in the following order, with the lowest precedence first: Certain options are created automatically by the VM, which specify arguments such as search paths and version information. The VM automatically adds -Xoptionsfile=<path>/options.default at the beginning of the command line, where <path> is the path to the VM directory. You can modify the options.default file to include any options that you want to specify for your application instead of entering these options on the command line. For more information about the path and construction of the file, see -Xoptionsfile . Options can be specified in an executable JAR file by using the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file. Options are placed in the main section in a header named IBM-Java-Options . Only one IBM-Java-Options header is permitted, but the header can contain multiple options, separated by spaces. A long sequence of options can be split using a header continuation but are treated as a single line. Example manifest file: Manifest-Version: 1.0 Class-Path: .

For more information, see the -Xoptionsfile topic in the user guide. Environment variables that are described in OpenJ9 environment variables are translated into command-line options.

You can set command-line options using this environment variable. The options that you specify with this environment variable are added to the command line when a VM starts in that environment.

These capabilities include dump files, verbose logs, and trace files, which are supported by a variety of diagnostic tools and interfaces. Dumps Various types of dumps are produced by default in response to certain events, such as a GPF fault or an OutOfMemoryError exception. You can also trigger the production of dumps by using the com.ibm.jvm.Dump API or by specifying -Xdump options on the command line. All dumps are produced by dump agents, which are initialized when the OpenJ9 VM starts. Different dumps target different areas of the runtime environment. If you want to generate a dump to diagnose a particular type of problem, you need to understand what data the dump will provide. The following dumps are typically used for problem diagnosis: Java dumps ( -Xdump:java ) contain information that relates to the OpenJ9 VM and the Java\u2122 application, such as the operating environment, locks, threads, hooks, shared classes, and class loaders. Heap dumps ( -Xdump:heap ) show the content of the Java heap. System dumps ( -Xdump:system ) contain a raw process image or address space of an application. Other types of dump include binary JIT dumps, stack dumps, and snap dumps. For a complete list of dump agents and the diagnostic data they produce, see Dump agents . Verbose log files Some components of OpenJ9 can also produce verbose output or log files to assist with problem determination. Class data sharing provides a number of -Xshareclasses suboptions to provide detailed data about the content of a shared classes cache, cache I/O activity, and information about the Java Helper API (where used). For example, the -Xshareclasses:printAllStats suboption lists every class in chronological order with a reference to the location from which it was loaded. For more information, see -Xshareclasses . Garbage collection operations can be analyzed by producing verbose output from the -verbose:gc standard option. This output can be redirected to a file by specifying the -Xverbosegclog option. Information can be obtained about GC initialization, stop-the-world processing, finalization, reference processing, and allocation failures. Even more granular information can be obtained with the -Xtgc option. The JIT compiler provides verbose logging, which records all compiler operations. To find out how to enable logging, read the JIT troubleshooting content. Class loader operations can be analyzed by producing verbose output from the -verbose:dynload standard option, which shows detailed information as each class is loaded by the VM. Trace files The OpenJ9 trace facility can be used to trace applications, Java methods, or internal JVM operations with minimal impact on performance. Trace is configured by using the -Xtrace command line option, which allows you to control what is traced and when. Trace data is produced in binary format and must be processed by the OpenJ9 trace formatter to convert it to a readable form. For more information, see Trace formatter . Diagnostic tools A number of diagnostic tools are available with OpenJ9 to assist with the analysis of dump and trace files. Dump extractor The dump extractor ( jextract ) supports a full analysis of core files on specific platforms by collecting key files from a system and packaging them into an archive along with a core dump. This archive file is extremely useful when reporting issues to the OpenJ9 community, helping to ensure a faster analysis and turnaround. For more information, see Dump extractor . Dump viewer Because system dumps are binary files, OpenJ9 provides a dump viewer tool ( jdmpview ) to analyze the contents. This tool can work with dumps from any platforms independently of a system debugger. For more information, see Dump viewer . Trace formatter The trace formatter tool converts binary trace point data in a trace file into a readable format for analysis. For more information, see Trace formatter . Option builder OpenJ9 contains an extensive set of command-line options to assist with problem diagnosis. Certain options are complex, containing many sub-options with numerous parameters. Whilst these offer a great degree of flexibility, the syntax can be difficult to construct. Option builder tools are available that provide a simple graphical user interface to help you construct your command-line argument. For more information, see Option builder . HotSpot-compatible tools A number of tools are available for compatibility with the reference implementation. These tools are independently implemented by OpenJ9 but have similar functions, allowing users to migrate more easily. The available tools are listed in the Tools section. Note: If you are already familiar with tools that are provided with HotSpot, see Switching to OpenJ9 , which explains some of the differences you might encounter when using OpenJ9. Eclipse marketplace tools OpenJ9 provides support for a number of monitoring and diagnostic tools that can be found in the Eclipse marketplace . Each tool provides a graphical user interface to help you visualize data and, in some cases, can provide tuning or debugging recommendations. Health Center: Provides real-time monitoring of running applications with minimal overhead over the network. You can monitor a whole range of operations including, class loading, CPU usage, GC heap and pause times, I/O activity, lock contention, method trace, native memory usage, profiling, and live threads. For more information, read the Health Center documentation . Garbage Collection Memory Vizualizer (GCMV): Plots GC and native memory data over time. You can view and save data as a report, raw log, tabulated data, or in graphical format. The tool helps to diagnose problems such as memory leaks with data presented in various visual formats for analysis. Tuning recommendations are also provided. For more information, read the GCMV documentation . Memory Analyzer: Examines the Java object heap to help find memory leaks or reduce memory consumption. Support is available for OpenJ9 via the DTFJ interface (Install from the Eclipse Help menu; Install New Software > Work with \"IBM Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java\" > IBM Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools > Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java). More information about Eclipse MAT can be found on the project website page . Interactive Diagnostic Data Explorer (IDDE): A GUI alternative to the OpenJ9 dump viewer , which can examine the contents of an OpenJ9 system dump. For more information, read the IDDE documentation . If you are familiar with using HotSpot as part of an Oracle JDK or OpenJDK, the Java VisualVM utility is functionally similar to Health Center. Interfaces JVM tool interface (JVMTI) OpenJ9 supports the Java Virtual Machine Tool Interface (JVMTI) and provides extensions that allow JVMTI tools to obtain diagnostic information or trigger diagnostic operations in the VM. For more information, see Java Virtual Machine Tool Interface . DTFJ Interface OpenJ9 includes the Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java (DTFJ) API. Custom applications can be written that use this API to access a wide range of information in a system dump or a Java dump. DTFJ can be used with the Eclipse Memory Analyzer Toolkit (MAT) to examine the Java object heap for memory leaks and to reduce memory consumption. For more information, see Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java . java.lang.management API OpenJ9 provides MXBean additions and extensions to this standard API, which enables you to use tools such as JConsole to monitor and manage your Java applications. For more information, see MBeans and MXBeans in the IBM\u00ae Knowledge Center.

You can also generate a Java dump by calling the Dump API programmatically from your application or specifying the -Xdump:java option on the command line. If your Java application crashes or hangs, Java dumps can provide useful information to help you diagnose the root cause. If your application crashes, Javadumps are generated automatically for the following types of failure: the VM receives an unexpected signal or an assertion failure the VM runs out of memory If your application hangs, you can trigger the generation of a Java dump by sending a SIGQUIT signal ( kill -3 ) to the VM. Note: On Windows, if you started the VM in a console window you can force the VM to produce a Java dump in response to a SIGBREAK signal (Ctrl-Break keyboard combination). If you didn't start in a console window there is no equivalent to a Linux kill command on Windows for sending signals. The only option here is to trigger a full system dump by finding the VM process in the Processes tab of the Windows Task Manager and clicking Create dump file . To help you understand how a Java dump can help you with problem diagnosis, this topic includes a few scenarios to help you interpret the data: A crash caused by a general protection fault (gpf) A Java heap OutOfMemoryError (OOM) A native OutOfMemoryError (OOM) A deadlock situation A hang Java dump contents Java dumps summarize the state of the VM when the event occurs, with most of the information relating to components of the VM. The file is made up of a number of sections that provide different types of information. TITLE The first section of the Java dump file provides information about the event that triggered the production of the dump. In the following example you can see that a vmstop event triggered the dump at a specified date and time. 0SECTION TITLE subcomponent dump routine NULL =============================== 1TICHARSET UTF-8 1TISIGINFO Dump Event \"vmstop\" (00000002) Detail \"#0000000000000000\" received 1TIDATETIME Date: 2018/08/30 at 21:55:47:607 1TINANOTIME System nanotime: 22012355276134 1TIFILENAME Javacore filename: /home/doc-javacore/javacore.20180830.215547.30285.0001.txt 1TIREQFLAGS Request Flags: 0x81 (exclusive+preempt) 1TIPREPSTATE Prep State: 0x106 (vm_access+exclusive_vm_access+trace_disabled) GPINFO The GPINFO section provides general information about the system that the VM is running on.

Precise information is recorded about the threads that are causing the problem, which enables you to identify the root cause. The following example shows a typical LOCKS section, where no deadlocks existed at the time the dump was triggered. For clarity, the following example shows a shortened version of this section, where ... indicates that lines are removed: NULL ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 0SECTION LOCKS subcomponent dump routine NULL =============================== NULL 1LKPOOLINFO Monitor pool info: 2LKPOOLTOTAL Current total number of monitors: 3 NULL 1LKMONPOOLDUMP Monitor Pool Dump (flat & inflated object-monitors): 2LKMONINUSE sys_mon_t:0x00007FF4B0001D78 infl_mon_t: 0x00007FF4B0001DF8: 3LKMONOBJECT java/lang/ref/ReferenceQueue@0x00000000FFE26A10: <unowned> 3LKNOTIFYQ Waiting to be notified: 3LKWAITNOTIFY \"Common-Cleaner\" (J9VMThread:0x0000000000FD0100) NULL 1LKREGMONDUMP JVM System Monitor Dump (registered monitors): 2LKREGMON Thread global lock (0x00007FF4F0004FE8): <unowned> 2LKREGMON &(PPG_mem_mem32_subAllocHeapMem32.monitor) lock (0x00007FF4F0005098): <unowned> 2LKREGMON NLS hash table lock (0x00007FF4F0005148): <unowned> ... NULL THREADS The THREADS section of a Java dump file provides summary information about the VM thread pool and detailed information about Java threads, native threads, and stack traces. Understanding the content of this section can help you diagnose problems that are caused by blocked or waiting threads. A Java thread runs on a native thread. Several lines are recorded for each Java thread in the Thread Details subsection, which include the following key pieces of information: 3XMTHREADINFO : The thread name, address information for the VM thread structures and Java thread object, the thread state, and thread priority. 3XMJAVALTHREAD : The Java thread ID and daemon status from the thread object. 3XMTHREADINFO1 : The native operating system thread ID, priority, scheduling policy, internal VM thread state, and VM thread flags. 3XMTHREADINFO2 : The native stack address range. 3XMTHREADINFO3 : Java callstack information ( 4XESTACKTRACE ) or Native call stack information ( 4XENATIVESTACK ). 5XESTACKTRACE : This line indicates whether locks were taken by a specific method. Java thread priorities are mapped to operating system priority values. Thread states are shown in the following table: Thread state value Status Description R Runnable The thread is able to run CW Condition Wait The thread is waiting S Suspended The thread is suspended by another thread Z Zombie The thread is destroyed P Parked The thread is parked by java.util.concurrent B Blocked The thread is waiting to obtain a lock For threads that are parked (P), blocked (B), or waiting (CW), an additional line ( 3XMTHREADBLOCK ) is included in the output that shows what the thread is parked on, blocked on, or waiting for.

NULL SHARED CLASSES If the shared classes cache is enabled at run time, the information provided in a Java dump file describes settings that were used when creating the cache, together with summary information about the size and content of the cache. In the following example, the shared classes cache was created with a Class Debug Area ( -Xnolinenumbers=false ). Byte code instrumentation (BCI) is enabled, which is the default, and VMs sharing the cache are allowed to store classpaths, which is also the default. The Cache Summary shows a cache size ( 2SCLTEXTCSZ ) of 16776608 bytes, with a soft maximum size ( 2SCLTEXTSMB ) also of 16776608 bytes, which leaves 12691668 bytes of free space ( 2SCLTEXTFRB ). The size of the Class Debug Area ( 2SCLTEXTDAS ) is 1331200 bytes and only 11% of this space is used. In the Cache Memory Status subsection, the line 2SCLTEXTCMDT indicates the name and location of the shared cache and cr indicates that the cache is a 64-bit compressed references cache.

To simulate a crash caused by a bug in an application, this example calls a JNI method whose native implementation causes a crash. The Java callstack shows the call to the JNI native method ( JNIcrasher ), and the native callstack shows the point of failure. In this example, the native call stack does not include any function names to help you isolate the error in the native code. You can get this information from a system dump, which is usually produced alongside the Java dump. Open the system dump with the Dump viewer and use the info thread command to print the Java and native stack for the current thread. Java OutOfMemoryError In this scenario, the Java heap runs out of memory, causing an OutOfMemoryError , which automatically generates a Java dump file. The first section of the file (TITLE) tells you that a systhrow event triggered the Java dump as a result of an OOM ( java/lang/OutOfMemoryError ) for Java heap space. 0SECTION TITLE subcomponent dump routine NULL =============================== 1TICHARSET UTF-8 1TISIGINFO Dump Event \"systhrow\" (00040000) Detail \"java/lang/OutOfMemoryError\" \"Java heap space\" received 1TIDATETIME Date: 2018/09/14 at 15:29:42:709 1TINANOTIME System nanotime: 3635648876608448 1TIFILENAME Javacore filename: /home/cheesemp/test/javacore.20180914.152929.18885.0003.txt 1TIREQFLAGS Request Flags: 0x81 (exclusive+preempt) 1TIPREPSTATE Prep State: 0x104 (exclusive_vm_access+trace_disabled) The MEMINFO section records how much memory is allocated to the Java heap ( 1STHEAPTYPE Object Memory ), how much is in use, and how much is free. Solving your problem might be as simple as setting a larger heap size when you start your application. If you don't know what size the Java heap was set to, you might find that information in the ENVINFO section, which records the command line options that were used when the application started. Look or search for the 1CIUSERARGS UserArgs: string and review the entries recorded for all lines that start 2CIUSERARG . The Java heap size is set by the -Xmx option. If the size has not been set on the command line by -Xmx , the default value applies, which you can find in Default Settings . In this scenario the solution to the problem is not an adjustment to the Java heap size. Here is the MEMINFO section: 0SECTION MEMINFO subcomponent dump routine NULL ================================= NULL 1STHEAPTYPE Object Memory NULL id start end size space/region 1STHEAPSPACE 0xB6B49D20 -- -- -- Generational 1STHEAPREGION 0xB6B4A078 0x95750000 0xB5470000 0x1FD20000 Generational/Tenured Region 1STHEAPREGION 0xB6B49F10 0xB5470000 0xB54C0000 0x00050000 Generational/Nursery Region 1STHEAPREGION 0xB6B49DA8 0xB54C0000 0xB5750000 0x00290000 Generational/Nursery Region NULL 1STHEAPTOTAL Total memory: 536870912 (0x20000000) 1STHEAPINUSE Total memory in use: 302603160 (0x12095B98) 1STHEAPFREE Total memory free: 234267752 (0x0DF6A468) The output shows that only 56% of the Java heap is in use, so this suggests that the application is trying to do something sub-optimal. To investigate further you need to work out which thread was the current thread when the OOM occurred to see what it was trying to do. As in the previous scenario, you can find the current thread in the THREADS section. Here is an extract from the output: 0SECTION THREADS subcomponent dump routine NULL ================================= NULL 1XMPOOLINFO JVM Thread pool info: 2XMPOOLTOTAL Current total number of pooled threads: 16 2XMPOOLLIVE Current total number of live threads: 16 2XMPOOLDAEMON Current total number of live daemon threads: 15 NULL 1XMCURTHDINFO Current thread 3XMTHREADINFO \"main\" J9VMThread:0xB6B60C00, omrthread_t:0xB6B049D8, java/lang/Thread:0x95764520, state:R, prio=5 3XMJAVALTHREAD (java/lang/Thread getId:0x1, isDaemon:false) 3XMTHREADINFO1 (native thread ID:0x49C6, native priority:0x5, native policy:UNKNOWN, vmstate:R, vm thread flags:0x00001020) 3XMTHREADINFO2 (native stack address range from:0xB6CB5000, to:0xB74B6000, size:0x801000) 3XMCPUTIME CPU usage total: 8.537823831 secs, current category=\"Application\" 3XMHEAPALLOC Heap bytes allocated since last GC cycle=0 (0x0) 3XMTHREADINFO3 Java callstack: 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/StringBuffer.ensureCapacityImpl(StringBuffer.java:696) 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/StringBuffer.append(StringBuffer.java:486(Compiled Code)) 5XESTACKTRACE (entered lock: java/lang/StringBuffer@0x957645B8, entry count: 1) 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/StringBuffer.append(StringBuffer.java:428(Compiled Code)) 4XESTACKTRACE at HeapBreaker.main(HeapBreaker.java:34(Compiled Code)) 3XMTHREADINFO3 Native callstack: 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C535B3 [libj9prt29.so+0x3b5b3]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C36F3E [libj9prt29.so+0x1ef3e]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C5311E [libj9prt29.so+0x3b11e]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C53216 [libj9prt29.so+0x3b216]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C52CE3 [libj9prt29.so+0x3ace3]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C36F3E [libj9prt29.so+0x1ef3e]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C52C57 [libj9prt29.so+0x3ac57]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C4E9CD [libj9prt29.so+0x369cd]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C502FA [libj9prt29.so+0x382fa]) To simulate a Java OutOfMemoryError , this example application repeatedly appends characters to a StringBuffer object in an infinite loop. The Java callstack shows the HeapBreaker.main method appending characters ( java/lang/StringGuffer.append ) until the method java/lang/StringBuffer.ensureCapacityImpl() throws the OutOfMemoryError . StringBuffer objects are wrappers for character arrays ( char[] ) and when the capacity of the underlying array is reached, the contents are automatically copied into a new, larger array. The new array is created in the StringBuffer.ensureCapacity() method, which more or less doubles the size of the old array. In this scenario, the array takes up all the remaining space in the Java heap. The MEMINFO section of the Java dump file can also tell you when an unexpectedly large allocation request causes an OOM. Look for the GC History ( 1STGCHTYPE ) section, which details allocation requests that trigger GC activity. In the sample output you can see that a large allocation request ( requestedbytes=603979784 ) triggered a global GC. When the GC could not free up sufficient space in the heap to satisfy the request, the allocation failure generated the OOM. 1STGCHTYPE GC History 3STHSTTYPE 14:29:29:580239000 GMT j9mm.101 - J9AllocateIndexableObject() returning NULL! 0 bytes requested for object of class B6BBC300 from memory space 'Generational' id=B6B49D20 3STHSTTYPE 14:29:29:579916000 GMT j9mm.134 -

The next step in diagnosing the problem is to open the system dump that gets generated automatically when an OutOfMemoryError occurs. Open the dump with the Eclipse Memory Analyzer tool (MAT) and search for the StringBuffer object, which should provide further clues about what went wrong. A common example is seeing the same String duplicated over and over again, which might indicate that code is stuck in a loop. Note: If you want to use MAT to analyze your system dump, you must install the Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java (DTFJ) plugin in the Eclipse IDE. Select the following menu items: Help > Install New Software > Work with \"IBM Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java\" > If, unlike the previous scenario, you receive an OutOfMemoryError and the MEMINFO section shows that there is very little space left on the Java heap, the current thread information is typically not important. The current thread is simply the thread that happened to be current when the space ran out. In this situation you might want to increase your Java heap size. For help with this task, see How to do heap sizing . Native OutOfMemoryError In this scenario, the VM runs out of native memory. Native memory is memory that is used by the VM for storing all virtualized resources and data that it needs for VM operations. Native memory that is available to the VM process is limited by the operating system. The native memory available to the VM might also be subject to additional limits imposed by the operating system, for example Unix ulimits . When a NativeOutOfMemoryError occurs, a Java dump is generated by default. The first section of the file (TITLE) tells you that a systhrow event triggered the Java dump as a result of an OOM ( java/lang/OutOfMemoryError ) for native memory. 0SECTION TITLE subcomponent dump routine NULL =============================== 1TICHARSET UTF-8 1TISIGINFO Dump Event \"systhrow\" (00040000) Detail \"java/lang/OutOfMemoryError\" \"native memory exhausted\" received 1TIDATETIME Date: 2018/09/14 at 15:49:55:887 1TINANOTIME System nanotime: 3636862054495675 1TIFILENAME Javacore filename: /home/cheesemp/test/javacore.20180914.154814.19708.0003.txt 1TIREQFLAGS Request Flags: 0x81 (exclusive+preempt) 1TIPREPSTATE Prep State: 0x104 (exclusive_vm_access+trace_disabled) Sometimes, the current thread is responsible for causing the NativeOutOfMemoryError .

The Java callstack shows the transition from Java to native code ( sun/misc/Unsafe.allocateDBBMemory(Native Method) ), indicating a request for Direct Byte Buffer (DBB) storage. DBB storage is backed by native memory, with the Java heap containing only a reference to the native heap buffer. In this scenario, DBB storage is the likely culprit for this NativeOutOfMemoryError . The next step is to investigate the NATIVEMEMINFO section of the Java dump file, which reports the amount of memory used by the JRE process, broken down into component areas. 0SECTION NATIVEMEMINFO subcomponent dump routine NULL ================================= 0MEMUSER 1MEMUSER JRE: 3,166,386,688 bytes / 4388 allocations 1MEMUSER | 2MEMUSER +--VM: 563,176,824 bytes / 1518 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Classes: 3,104,416 bytes / 120 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Memory Manager (GC): 548,181,888 bytes / 398 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Java Heap: 536,932,352 bytes / 1 allocation 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Other: 11,249,536 bytes / 397 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Threads: 10,817,120 bytes / 147 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Java Stack: 115,584 bytes / 16 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Native Stack: 10,616,832 bytes / 17 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Other: 84,704 bytes / 114 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Trace: 163,688 bytes / 268 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--JVMTI: 17,320 bytes / 13 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--JNI: 23,296 bytes / 55 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Port Library: 8,576 bytes / 74 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Other: 860,520 bytes / 443 allocations 1MEMUSER | 2MEMUSER +--JIT: 3,744,728 bytes / 122 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--JIT Code Cache: 2,097,152 bytes / 1 allocation 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--JIT Data Cache: 524,336 bytes / 1 allocation 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Other: 1,123,240 bytes / 120 allocations 1MEMUSER | 2MEMUSER +--Class Libraries: 2,599,463,024 bytes / 2732 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Harmony Class Libraries: 1,024 bytes / 1 allocation 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--VM Class Libraries: 2,599,462,000 bytes / 2731 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--sun.misc.Unsafe: 2,598,510,480 bytes / 2484 allocations 4MEMUSER | | | | 5MEMUSER | | | +--Direct Byte Buffers: 2,598,510,480 bytes / 2484 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Other: 951,520 bytes / 247 allocations 1MEMUSER | 2MEMUSER +--Unknown: 2,112 bytes / 16 allocations NULL In the VM Class Libraries section, the amount of memory allocated for Direct Byte Buffers is shown. Because the NativeOutOfMemoryError was received on a small 32-bit system, a value of 2,598,510,480 bytes indicates that the operating system has run out of memory. On a larger UNIX system, the process might have run out of memory because of the ulimit setting. Increasing the value for ulimit might avoid the error, which you can do temporarily by setting ulimit -f unlimited in your current session. The theoretical maximum size for a 32-bit process is the size of the 32-bit address space, which is 4 GB. On most operating systems a portion of the address space for each process is used by the kernel, such that the real limit for 32-bit processes is actually significantly less than 4GB. As a result, running out of native memory with a 32-bit VM is quite common. The same 4 GB limit is also important if you are using a 64-bit VM with compressed references. In compressed references mode, all references to objects, classes, threads, and monitors are represented by 32-bit values for performance reasons, so these structures can be allocated only at 32-bit addresses. However, the operating system might place other allocations within this 4 GB of address space, and if this area becomes sufficiently full or fragmented, the VM throws a native NativeOutOfMemoryError error. These errors typically occur when the VM tries to create a new thread or load a class. The Current Thread History section should contain more information about what the thread was doing at the VM level when the NativeOutOfMemoryError error occurred. You can usually avoid this type of problem by using the -Xmcrs option to reserve a contiguous area of memory within the lowest 4GB of memory at VM startup. Another common cause of a NativeOutOfMemoryError is when an application loads duplicate classes. Classes are allocated outside of the Java heap in native memory. If the value reported for Classes in the NATIVEMEMINFO section is very large, duplicate classes might be the cause of your problem. The Eclipse Memory Analyzer Tool (MAT) can tell you if you have duplicate classes by using the Class Loader Explorer feature. Because a system dump is automatically generated as well as a Java dump in response to a NativeOutOfMemoryError , simply open the system dump in MAT to continue your diagnosis. Deadlock Deadlocks occur when two threads attempt to synchronize on an object and lock an instance of a class. When this happens, your application stops responding and hangs. Generating a Java dump file will quickly tell you whether you have a deadlock situation. Trigger the Java dump by sending a SIGQUIT signal ( kill -3 ) to the VM. The VM can detect the most common types of deadlock scenario involving Java monitors. If this type of deadlock is detected, information is provided in the LOCKS section. More complex deadlocks, including those that involve a mixture of native mutexes and Java monitors, are not detected. Here is the output from the code that was used to cause a common deadlock scenario: NULL 1LKDEADLOCK Deadlock detected !!!

You can identify this problem by looking at verbose GC output. Collect this output by specifying the -verbose:gc option. Deadlock situations can also manifest themselves as hangs. For more information on diagnosing this type of problem from a Java dump, see the deadlock scenario. If you have eliminated verbose GC activity and deadlocks, another common hang scenario involves threads that compete and wait for Java object locks. This type of problem can usually be diagnosed by examining a Java dump. The simplest hang scenario involving Java object locks is where a thread acquires a lock that other threads are waiting for, but it doesn't release the lock for some reason. The first place to look in the Java dump output is the LOCKS section. This section lists all the monitors and shows which threads have acquired a lock and which threads are waiting. If the hang is caused by a thread not releasing a lock that other threads need, you can see a list of waiting threads in the output. In this example scenario, the Java dump LOCKS section shows that Worker Thread 0 ( 3LKMONOBJECT ) has acquired a lock and there are 19 other worker threads waiting to obtain the lock.

The best place to start is the stack trace for this thread, which you can find by searching on the thread name or J9VMThread ID in the THREADS section. The following extract shows the details for \"Worker Thread 0\" (J9VMThread:0x92A3EC00) : NULL 3XMTHREADINFO \"Worker Thread 0\" J9VMThread:0x92A3EC00, omrthread_t:0x92A3C280, java/lang/Thread:0xB56668B8, state:CW, prio=5 3XMJAVALTHREAD (java/lang/Thread getId:0x13, isDaemon:false) 3XMTHREADINFO1 (native thread ID:0x511F, native priority:0x5, native policy:UNKNOWN, vmstate:CW, vm thread flags:0x00000401) 3XMTHREADINFO2 (native stack address range from:0x9297E000, to:0x929BF000, size:0x41000) 3XMCPUTIME CPU usage total: 0.000211878 secs, current category=\"Application\" 3XMHEAPALLOC Heap bytes allocated since last GC cycle=0 (0x0) 3XMTHREADINFO3 Java callstack: 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/Thread.sleep(Native Method) 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/Thread.sleep(Thread.java:941) 4XESTACKTRACE at WorkerThread.doWork(HangTest.java:37) 4XESTACKTRACE at WorkerThread.run(HangTest.java:31) 5XESTACKTRACE (entered lock: java/lang/Object@0xB56658D8, entry count: 1) In the last line of this output you can see where the thread acquired the lock. Working up from this line, you can see that WorkerThread.run was called, which in turn called WorkerThread.doWork . The stack shows that the thread then entered a call to java/lang/Thread.sleep in HangTest.java on line 37, which is preventing the thread from completing its work and releasing the lock. In this example the sleep call was added to induce a hang, but in real-world scenarios the cause could be any blocking operation, such as reading from an input stream or socket. Another possibility is that the thread is waiting for another lock owned by yet another thread. It is important to remember that each Java dump represents a single snapshot in time. You should generate at least three Java dumps separated by a short pause, for example 30 seconds, and compare the output. This comparison tells you whether the threads involved are stuck in a fixed state or whether they are moving. In this example, the threads do not move and the investigation needs to focus on the logic in WorkerThread.doWork to understand why Worker Thread 0 entered the java/lang/Thread.sleep call. Another common scenario is where each Java dump shows a number of threads waiting for a lock owned by another thread, but the list of waiting threads and the lock-owning thread change over time. In this case the cause is likely to be a bottleneck caused by thread contention, where the threads are continually competing for the same lock. In severe cases, the lock is held only for a small amount of time but there are lots of threads trying to obtain it. Because more time is spent handling the lock and scheduling the thread than executing application code, the degradation in performance is manifested as a hang. Thread contention is usually caused by an application design problem. You can use a similar approach to the one used in this scenario to determime which lines of code are responsible for the contention.","title":"Java dump"},{"location":"dump_javadump/#java-dump","text":"Java dumps, sometimes referred to as Java cores , are produced when the VM ends unexpectedly because of an operating system signal, OutOfMemoryError , or a user-initiated keystroke combination. You can also generate a Java dump by calling the Dump API programmatically from your application or specifying the -Xdump:java option on the command line. If your Java application crashes or hangs, Java dumps can provide useful information to help you diagnose the root cause. If your application crashes, Javadumps are generated automatically for the following types of failure: the VM receives an unexpected signal or an assertion failure the VM runs out of memory If your application hangs, you can trigger the generation of a Java dump by sending a SIGQUIT signal ( kill -3 ) to the VM. Note: On Windows, if you started the VM in a console window you can force the VM to produce a Java dump in response to a SIGBREAK signal (Ctrl-Break keyboard combination). If you didn't start in a console window there is no equivalent to a Linux kill command on Windows for sending signals. The only option here is to trigger a full system dump by finding the VM process in the Processes tab of the Windows Task Manager and clicking Create dump file .

To simulate a crash caused by a bug in an application, this example calls a JNI method whose native implementation causes a crash. The Java callstack shows the call to the JNI native method ( JNIcrasher ), and the native callstack shows the point of failure. In this example, the native call stack does not include any function names to help you isolate the error in the native code. You can get this information from a system dump, which is usually produced alongside the Java dump. Open the system dump with the Dump viewer and use the info thread command to print the Java and native stack for the current thread.","title":"General Protection Fault"},{"location":"dump_javadump/#java-outofmemoryerror","text":"In this scenario, the Java heap runs out of memory, causing an OutOfMemoryError , which automatically generates a Java dump file.

Solving your problem might be as simple as setting a larger heap size when you start your application. If you don't know what size the Java heap was set to, you might find that information in the ENVINFO section, which records the command line options that were used when the application started. Look or search for the 1CIUSERARGS UserArgs: string and review the entries recorded for all lines that start 2CIUSERARG . The Java heap size is set by the -Xmx option. If the size has not been set on the command line by -Xmx , the default value applies, which you can find in Default Settings . In this scenario the solution to the problem is not an adjustment to the Java heap size. Here is the MEMINFO section: 0SECTION MEMINFO subcomponent dump routine NULL ================================= NULL 1STHEAPTYPE Object Memory NULL id start end size space/region 1STHEAPSPACE 0xB6B49D20 -- -- -- Generational 1STHEAPREGION 0xB6B4A078 0x95750000 0xB5470000 0x1FD20000 Generational/Tenured Region 1STHEAPREGION 0xB6B49F10 0xB5470000 0xB54C0000 0x00050000 Generational/Nursery Region 1STHEAPREGION 0xB6B49DA8 0xB54C0000 0xB5750000 0x00290000 Generational/Nursery Region NULL 1STHEAPTOTAL Total memory: 536870912 (0x20000000) 1STHEAPINUSE Total memory in use: 302603160 (0x12095B98) 1STHEAPFREE Total memory free: 234267752 (0x0DF6A468) The output shows that only 56% of the Java heap is in use, so this suggests that the application is trying to do something sub-optimal. To investigate further you need to work out which thread was the current thread when the OOM occurred to see what it was trying to do. As in the previous scenario, you can find the current thread in the THREADS section.

The Java callstack shows the HeapBreaker.main method appending characters ( java/lang/StringGuffer.append ) until the method java/lang/StringBuffer.ensureCapacityImpl() throws the OutOfMemoryError . StringBuffer objects are wrappers for character arrays ( char[] ) and when the capacity of the underlying array is reached, the contents are automatically copied into a new, larger array. The new array is created in the StringBuffer.ensureCapacity() method, which more or less doubles the size of the old array. In this scenario, the array takes up all the remaining space in the Java heap. The MEMINFO section of the Java dump file can also tell you when an unexpectedly large allocation request causes an OOM. Look for the GC History ( 1STGCHTYPE ) section, which details allocation requests that trigger GC activity. In the sample output you can see that a large allocation request ( requestedbytes=603979784 ) triggered a global GC. When the GC could not free up sufficient space in the heap to satisfy the request, the allocation failure generated the OOM. 1STGCHTYPE GC History 3STHSTTYPE 14:29:29:580239000 GMT j9mm.101 - J9AllocateIndexableObject() returning NULL! 0 bytes requested for object of class B6BBC300 from memory space 'Generational' id=B6B49D20 3STHSTTYPE 14:29:29:579916000 GMT j9mm.134 -

The next step in diagnosing the problem is to open the system dump that gets generated automatically when an OutOfMemoryError occurs. Open the dump with the Eclipse Memory Analyzer tool (MAT) and search for the StringBuffer object, which should provide further clues about what went wrong. A common example is seeing the same String duplicated over and over again, which might indicate that code is stuck in a loop. Note: If you want to use MAT to analyze your system dump, you must install the Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java (DTFJ) plugin in the Eclipse IDE. Select the following menu items: Help > Install New Software > Work with \"IBM Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java\" > If, unlike the previous scenario, you receive an OutOfMemoryError and the MEMINFO section shows that there is very little space left on the Java heap, the current thread information is typically not important.

The Java callstack shows the transition from Java to native code ( sun/misc/Unsafe.allocateDBBMemory(Native Method) ), indicating a request for Direct Byte Buffer (DBB) storage. DBB storage is backed by native memory, with the Java heap containing only a reference to the native heap buffer. In this scenario, DBB storage is the likely culprit for this NativeOutOfMemoryError . The next step is to investigate the NATIVEMEMINFO section of the Java dump file, which reports the amount of memory used by the JRE process, broken down into component areas. 0SECTION NATIVEMEMINFO subcomponent dump routine NULL ================================= 0MEMUSER 1MEMUSER JRE: 3,166,386,688 bytes / 4388 allocations 1MEMUSER | 2MEMUSER +--VM: 563,176,824 bytes / 1518 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Classes: 3,104,416 bytes / 120 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Memory Manager (GC): 548,181,888 bytes / 398 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Java Heap: 536,932,352 bytes / 1 allocation 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Other: 11,249,536 bytes / 397 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Threads: 10,817,120 bytes / 147 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Java Stack: 115,584 bytes / 16 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Native Stack: 10,616,832 bytes / 17 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Other: 84,704 bytes / 114 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Trace: 163,688 bytes / 268 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--JVMTI: 17,320 bytes / 13 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--JNI: 23,296 bytes / 55 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Port Library: 8,576 bytes / 74 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Other: 860,520 bytes / 443 allocations 1MEMUSER | 2MEMUSER +--JIT: 3,744,728 bytes / 122 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--JIT Code Cache: 2,097,152 bytes / 1 allocation 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--JIT Data Cache: 524,336 bytes / 1 allocation 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Other: 1,123,240 bytes / 120 allocations 1MEMUSER | 2MEMUSER +--Class Libraries: 2,599,463,024 bytes / 2732 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Harmony Class Libraries: 1,024 bytes / 1 allocation 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--VM Class Libraries: 2,599,462,000 bytes / 2731 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--sun.misc.Unsafe: 2,598,510,480 bytes / 2484 allocations 4MEMUSER | | | | 5MEMUSER | | | +--Direct Byte Buffers: 2,598,510,480 bytes / 2484 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Other: 951,520 bytes / 247 allocations 1MEMUSER | 2MEMUSER +--Unknown: 2,112 bytes / 16 allocations NULL In the VM Class Libraries section, the amount of memory allocated for Direct Byte Buffers is shown. Because the NativeOutOfMemoryError was received on a small 32-bit system, a value of 2,598,510,480 bytes indicates that the operating system has run out of memory. On a larger UNIX system, the process might have run out of memory because of the ulimit setting. Increasing the value for ulimit might avoid the error, which you can do temporarily by setting ulimit -f unlimited in your current session. The theoretical maximum size for a 32-bit process is the size of the 32-bit address space, which is 4 GB. On most operating systems a portion of the address space for each process is used by the kernel, such that the real limit for 32-bit processes is actually significantly less than 4GB. As a result, running out of native memory with a 32-bit VM is quite common. The same 4 GB limit is also important if you are using a 64-bit VM with compressed references. In compressed references mode, all references to objects, classes, threads, and monitors are represented by 32-bit values for performance reasons, so these structures can be allocated only at 32-bit addresses. However, the operating system might place other allocations within this 4 GB of address space, and if this area becomes sufficiently full or fragmented, the VM throws a native NativeOutOfMemoryError error. These errors typically occur when the VM tries to create a new thread or load a class. The Current Thread History section should contain more information about what the thread was doing at the VM level when the NativeOutOfMemoryError error occurred. You can usually avoid this type of problem by using the -Xmcrs option to reserve a contiguous area of memory within the lowest 4GB of memory at VM startup. Another common cause of a NativeOutOfMemoryError is when an application loads duplicate classes. Classes are allocated outside of the Java heap in native memory. If the value reported for Classes in the NATIVEMEMINFO section is very large, duplicate classes might be the cause of your problem. The Eclipse Memory Analyzer Tool (MAT) can tell you if you have duplicate classes by using the Class Loader Explorer feature. Because a system dump is automatically generated as well as a Java dump in response to a NativeOutOfMemoryError , simply open the system dump in MAT to continue your diagnosis.","title":"Native OutOfMemoryError"},{"location":"dump_javadump/#deadlock","text":"Deadlocks occur when two threads attempt to synchronize on an object and lock an instance of a class. When this happens, your application stops responding and hangs. Generating a Java dump file will quickly tell you whether you have a deadlock situation. Trigger the Java dump by sending a SIGQUIT signal ( kill -3 ) to the VM. The VM can detect the most common types of deadlock scenario involving Java monitors. If this type of deadlock is detected, information is provided in the LOCKS section. More complex deadlocks, including those that involve a mixture of native mutexes and Java monitors, are not detected. Here is the output from the code that was used to cause a common deadlock scenario: NULL 1LKDEADLOCK Deadlock detected !!!

You can identify this problem by looking at verbose GC output. Collect this output by specifying the -verbose:gc option. Deadlock situations can also manifest themselves as hangs. For more information on diagnosing this type of problem from a Java dump, see the deadlock scenario. If you have eliminated verbose GC activity and deadlocks, another common hang scenario involves threads that compete and wait for Java object locks. This type of problem can usually be diagnosed by examining a Java dump. The simplest hang scenario involving Java object locks is where a thread acquires a lock that other threads are waiting for, but it doesn't release the lock for some reason. The first place to look in the Java dump output is the LOCKS section. This section lists all the monitors and shows which threads have acquired a lock and which threads are waiting. If the hang is caused by a thread not releasing a lock that other threads need, you can see a list of waiting threads in the output. In this example scenario, the Java dump LOCKS section shows that Worker Thread 0 ( 3LKMONOBJECT ) has acquired a lock and there are 19 other worker threads waiting to obtain the lock.

The following extract shows the details for \"Worker Thread 0\" (J9VMThread:0x92A3EC00) : NULL 3XMTHREADINFO \"Worker Thread 0\" J9VMThread:0x92A3EC00, omrthread_t:0x92A3C280, java/lang/Thread:0xB56668B8, state:CW, prio=5 3XMJAVALTHREAD (java/lang/Thread getId:0x13, isDaemon:false) 3XMTHREADINFO1 (native thread ID:0x511F, native priority:0x5, native policy:UNKNOWN, vmstate:CW, vm thread flags:0x00000401) 3XMTHREADINFO2 (native stack address range from:0x9297E000, to:0x929BF000, size:0x41000) 3XMCPUTIME CPU usage total: 0.000211878 secs, current category=\"Application\" 3XMHEAPALLOC Heap bytes allocated since last GC cycle=0 (0x0) 3XMTHREADINFO3 Java callstack: 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/Thread.sleep(Native Method) 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/Thread.sleep(Thread.java:941) 4XESTACKTRACE at WorkerThread.doWork(HangTest.java:37) 4XESTACKTRACE at WorkerThread.run(HangTest.java:31) 5XESTACKTRACE (entered lock: java/lang/Object@0xB56658D8, entry count: 1) In the last line of this output you can see where the thread acquired the lock. Working up from this line, you can see that WorkerThread.run was called, which in turn called WorkerThread.doWork . The stack shows that the thread then entered a call to java/lang/Thread.sleep in HangTest.java on line 37, which is preventing the thread from completing its work and releasing the lock. In this example the sleep call was added to induce a hang, but in real-world scenarios the cause could be any blocking operation, such as reading from an input stream or socket. Another possibility is that the thread is waiting for another lock owned by yet another thread. It is important to remember that each Java dump represents a single snapshot in time. You should generate at least three Java dumps separated by a short pause, for example 30 seconds, and compare the output. This comparison tells you whether the threads involved are stuck in a fixed state or whether they are moving. In this example, the threads do not move and the investigation needs to focus on the logic in WorkerThread.doWork to understand why Worker Thread 0 entered the java/lang/Thread.sleep call. Another common scenario is where each Java dump shows a number of threads waiting for a lock owned by another thread, but the list of waiting threads and the lock-owning thread change over time. In this case the cause is likely to be a bottleneck caused by thread contention, where the threads are continually competing for the same lock. In severe cases, the lock is held only for a small amount of time but there are lots of threads trying to obtain it. Because more time is spent handling the lock and scheduling the thread than executing application code, the degradation in performance is manifested as a hang. Thread contention is usually caused by an application design problem. You can use a similar approach to the one used in this scenario to determime which lines of code are responsible for the contention.","title":"Hang"},{"location":"dump_systemdump/","text":"System dump System dumps, often known as core dumps , are platform-specific and contain a raw binary dump of the process memory.

If you are setting multiple values for an environment variable in a list: On AIX, Linux, macOS, and z/OS the separator is typically a colon (:). On Windows the separator is typically a semicolon (;). General options General VM environment variables are shown in the following table: Environment variable Usage information IBM_JAVA_COMMAND_LINE This variable is set by the VM after it starts. Using this variable, you can find the command-line parameters set when the VM started. This setting is not available if the VM is invoked by using JNI. OPENJ9_JAVA_OPTIONS=<option> Set this variable to store default Java options, including -X , -D , or -verbose:gc style options. For example, -Xms256m -Djava.compiler . Any options set are overridden by equivalent options that are specified when Java is started. This variable does not support -fullversion or -version . If you specify the name of a trace output file either directly, or indirectly, by using a properties file, the output file might be accidentally overwritten if you run utilities such as the trace formatter, dump extractor, or dump viewer. To avoid this problem, add %d, %p or %t to the trace file names. See -Xtrace:output . Note: The equivalent IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. JAVA_FONTS=<list of directories> Set this environment variable to specify the font directory. Setting this variable is equivalent to setting the property java.awt.fonts on Windows operating systems, and sun.java2d.fontpath on other operating systems. Dump agent options The preferred mechanism for controlling the production of dumps is by using the -Xdump option. However, these legacy environment variables are preserved and can still be used. The following table describes dump agent options: Environment Variable Usage Information JAVA_DUMP_OPTS Used to control the conditions under which dumps are produced. If you set agents for a condition by using the JAVA_DUMP_OPTS environment variable, default dump agents for that condition are disabled; however, any -Xdump options that are specified on the command line are used. The JAVA_DUMP_OPTS environment variable uses the following syntax: JAVA_DUMP_OPTS=\"ON<condition>(<agent>[<count>],<agent>[<count>]), ON<condition>(<agent>[<count>],...),...)\" Where: <condition> is one of the following values: ANYSIGNAL DUMP ERROR INTERRUPT EXCEPTION OUTOFMEMORY <agent> is one of the following values: ALL NONE JAVADUMP SYSDUMP HEAPDUMP CEEDUMP (z/OS specific) <count> is the number of times to run the specified agent for the specified condition. This value is optional. By default, the agent runs every time that the condition occurs. JAVA_DUMP_OPTS is parsed by taking the leftmost occurrence of each condition, so duplicates are ignored. The following setting produces a system dump for the first error condition only: :::java ONERROR(SYSDUMP[1]),ONERROR(JAVADUMP) Also, the ONANYSIGNAL condition is parsed before all others, so :::java ONINTERRUPT(NONE),ONANYSIGNAL(SYSDUMP) has the same effect as :::java ONANYSIGNAL(SYSDUMP),ONINTERRUPT(NONE) If the JAVA_DUMP_TOOL environment variable is set, that variable is assumed to specify a valid executable name and is parsed for replaceable fields, such as %pid . If %pid is detected in the string, the string is replaced with the VM's own process ID. The tool that is specified by JAVA_DUMP_TOOL is run after any system dump or heap dump is taken, before anything else. The dump settings are applied in the following order. Settings later in the list take precedence: Default VM dump behavior. -Xdump command-line options that specify -Xdump:<type>:defaults , see OpenJ9 default options .

These components operate on an area of memory that is reserved for VM processing called the Java heap. The Allocator assigns areas of the Java heap for Java objects. Objects are considered as live when they have a chain of references to them that start from root references, such as those found in thread stacks. When that reference or pointer no longer exists, the objects are considered as garbage . The role of the Garbage Collector is to manage the storage in the Java heap and reclaim memory by removing garbage. The Allocator The Allocator is a component of memory management that is typically overshadowed by the task of garbage collection. However, it is a critical, if not small part, of the overall process. The Allocator manages pools of free memory and how the free memory is consumed. It is also responsible for allocating areas of storage in the Java heap for objects at the request of applications, class libraries, or the VM. Every allocation requires a heap lock to stop concurrent threads trying to access the same area of memory at the same time. When an object is allocated, the heap lock is released. If there is insufficient space to allocate the object, allocation fails, the heap lock is released, and the GC is called. If the GC manages to recover some space on the heap, the Allocator can resume operations. If the GC does not recover enough space, it returns an OutOfMemoryError exception. Acquiring a heap lock for every allocation would be an intensive operation with a knock on impact to performance. To get around this problem, small objects are allocated to thread local heaps (TLH). Thread local heaps (TLH) To improve performance, allocation caches are reserved in the heap for different threads. These allocation caches are known as thread local heaps (TLH) and allow each thread to allocate memory from its cache without acquiring the heap lock. A TLH is typically used for small objects of less than 512 bytes (768 bytes on 64-bit VMs) although larger objects can be allocated from the cache if there is sufficient space. If a thread allocates a lot of objects, the allocator gives that thread a larger TLH to reduce contention on the heap lock. A TLH is predefined with an initial default size of 2 KB. On every TLH refresh, the requested size for that thread is increased by an increment (default 4 KB). The requested size can grow up to a predefined maximum (default 128 KB). After every GC cycle, the TLH requested size for each thread is reduced, sometimes by as much as 50%, to take account of threads that reduce their allocation rate and no longer need large TLHs. For very inactive threads, the requested size can even drop below the initial value, down to the predefined minimum (512/768 bytes). For very active threads, the maximum TLH requested size might be reached before the next GC occurs. Larger TLHs can help reduce heap lock contention, but might also reduce heap utilisation and increase heap fragmentation. The following options control the requested TLH size: -Xgc:tlhMaximumSize=<bytes> -Xgc:tlhInitialSize=<bytes> -Xgc:tlhIncrementSize=<bytes> Typically, when the maximum TLH size is increased, you should also increase the increment proportionally, so that active threads can reach the maximum requested TLH size more quickly. Garbage collection To prevent applications running out of memory, objects in the Java heap that are no longer required must be reclaimed. This process is known as garbage collection (GC). When garbage is collected, the garbage collector must obtain exclusive access to the heap, which causes an application to pause while the clean up is done. This pause is often referred to as a stop-the-world pause because an application must halt until the process completes. In general, the first step in the GC process is to mark the objects that are reachable, which means they are still in use. The next step is to sweep away the unmarked objects to reclaim memory. The last step, which isn't always required unless the heap has become very fragmented, is to compact the heap. Eclipse OpenJ9 has a number of GC policies designed around different types of applications and workloads. Picking the right policy very much depends on your usage and performance goals. Generational Concurrent policy If you have a transactional application, with many short lived objects, the Generational Concurrent ( -Xgcpolicy:gencon ) GC policy is probably best suited, which aims to minimize GC pause times without compromising throughput. This is the default policy employed by the VM, so if you want to use it you don't need to specify it on the command line when you start your application. With the gencon policy, the Java heap is divided into two main areas, the nursery area, where new objects are created and the tenure area, where objects are moved if they have reached tenure age . The nursery area is subdivided into two further areas, the allocate space and the survivor space. The GC process is illustrated in the following diagram, which shows a sequence of 4 main events: Objects are created in the allocate space. The allocate space is full. A local GC scavenge process runs and reachable objects are either copied into the survivor space or into the tenure area if they have reached tenure age . Any objects that can't be reached are left untouched and subsequently cleared. The allocate and survivor spaces swap roles. The original survivor space becomes the allocate space where new objects are created, and the original allocate space becomes the survivor space ready for the next local GC scavenge process. The relative sizes of the allocate and survivor spaces are dynamically adjusted by a technique called tilting . When the nursery area is first created, it is evenly divided between the allocate and survivor spaces. If, after a GC scavenge process is run, the amount of space required for the survivor area is comparatively small, the boundary between the two spaces is adjusted by tilting . For example, if the survivor space requires only 10% of the nursery area, the tilt ratio is adjusted to give 90% of the nursery area to the allocate space. With more space available for new objects, garbage collection can be delayed. The tenure age of an object is determined by the VM and reflects the number of times that an object has been copied between the allocate space and the survivor space. The age is in the range 1 - 14 and is adjusted dynamically by the VM depending on the overall amount of space that is used in the nursery area . For example, if an object has a tenure age of 5, it has been copied backwards and forwards between allocate and survivor spaces 5 times. If the VM sets a tenure age of 5 based on the percentage of space remaining in the nursery area, the next scavenge moves the object from the nursery to the tenure area. You can set an initial tenure age with the -Xgc:scvTenureAge option. You can also prevent the VM dynamically adjusting the tenure age by setting the Xgc:scvNoAdaptiveTenure option so that the intial age is maintained throughout the run time of the VM. Within the tenure area, new objects are allocated into the small object area (SOA), which is illustrated in the earlier diagram (see 3.). A large object area (LOA) is set aside for objects greater than 64 KB that cannot be allocated into the SOA to minimize fragmentation. The LOA is allocated by default but is reduced and removed after a few GC cycles if it isn't populated. To prevent the creation of an LOA, you can specify the -Xnoloa option on the command line when you start your application. When the tenure area is close to full a global GC is triggered. The local GC scavenge reduces pause times by freqently reclaiming memory in the nursery area which, for a transactional application with many short-lived objects, has the most recyclable space. However, over time the tenure area might become full. So, whilst a local GC scavenge process is operating on the nursery area, a concurrent global GC process also runs alongside normal program execution to mark and remove unreachable objects from the tenure area. These two GC approaches combine to provide a good trade-off between shorter pause times and consistent throughput. A special mode of the gencon policy is known as Concurrent Scavenge ( -Xgc:concurrentScavenge ), which aims to minimize the time spent in stop-the-world pauses by collecting nursery garbage in parallel with running application threads. This mode can be enabled with hardware-based support and software-based support. Hardware-based support: (Linux on IBM Z\u00ae and z/OS\u00ae) This mode works on the IBM z14\u2122 mainframe system with the Guarded Storage (GS) Facility. The GS Facility provides hardware-based support to detect when potentially stale references to objects are accessed by an application. This means that the garbage collector can start processing objects in parts of the heap without halting an application because the GS Facility is on hand to spot accesses to an object and send a notification. The object that was ready to be swept away can be moved, and references to it can be reset. You can read more about this mode in the following blog posts: Reducing Garbage Collection pause times with Concurrent Scavenge and the Guarded Storage Facility How Concurrent Scavenge using the Guarded Storage Facility Works Software-based support: (64-bit: Linux on (x86-64, POWER, IBM Z\u00ae), AIX\u00ae, and z/OS\u00ae) With software-based support, Concurrent Scavenge can be enabled without any pre-requisite hardware although the performance throughput is not as good as hardware-based support. For more information about enabling Concurrent Scavenge, see the -Xgc:concurrentScavenge option. Other policies OpenJ9 has the following alternative GC policies: -Xgcpolicy:balanced divides the Java heap into regions, which are individually managed to reduce the maximum pause time on large heaps and increase the efficiency of garbage collection. The aim of the policy is to avoid global collections by matching object allocation and survival rates. If you have problems with application pause times that are caused by global garbage collections, particularly compactions, this policy might improve application performance, particularly on large systems that have Non-Uniform Memory Architecture (NUMA) characteristics (x86 and POWER platforms). -Xgcpolicy:metronome is designed for applications that require precise response times. Garbage collection occurs in small interruptible steps to avoid stop-the-world pauses. This policy is available only on x86 Linux and AIX platforms. -Xgcpolicy:nogc handles only memory allocation and heap expansion, but doesn't reclaim any memory. The GC impact on runtime performance is therefore minimized, but if the available Java heap becomes exhausted, an OutOfMemoryError exception is triggered and the VM stops. -Xgcpolicy:optavgpause uses concurrent mark and sweep phases, which means that pause times are reduced when compared to optthruput, but at the expense of some performance throughput. -Xgcpolicy:optthruput is optimized for throughput by disabling the concurrent mark phase, which means that applications will stop for long pauses while garbage collection takes place. You might consider using this policy when high application throughput, rather than short garbage collection pauses, is the main performance goal. For more information about these garbage collection policies and options, see -Xgcpolicy . Troubleshooting You can diagnose problems with garbage collection operations by turning on verbose garbage collection logging. By default, the information is printed to STDERR but can be redirected to a file by specifying the -Xverbosegclog option. The log files contain detailed information about all operations, including initialization, stop-the-world processing, finalization, reference processing, and allocation failures. For more information, see Verbose garbage collection If verbose logs do not provide enough information to help you diagnose GC problems, you can use GC trace to analyze operations at a more granular level.

Picking the right policy very much depends on your usage and performance goals.","title":"Garbage collection"},{"location":"gc/#generational-concurrent-policy","text":"If you have a transactional application, with many short lived objects, the Generational Concurrent ( -Xgcpolicy:gencon ) GC policy is probably best suited, which aims to minimize GC pause times without compromising throughput. This is the default policy employed by the VM, so if you want to use it you don't need to specify it on the command line when you start your application. With the gencon policy, the Java heap is divided into two main areas, the nursery area, where new objects are created and the tenure area, where objects are moved if they have reached tenure age . The nursery area is subdivided into two further areas, the allocate space and the survivor space. The GC process is illustrated in the following diagram, which shows a sequence of 4 main events: Objects are created in the allocate space. The allocate space is full. A local GC scavenge process runs and reachable objects are either copied into the survivor space or into the tenure area if they have reached tenure age . Any objects that can't be reached are left untouched and subsequently cleared. The allocate and survivor spaces swap roles. The original survivor space becomes the allocate space where new objects are created, and the original allocate space becomes the survivor space ready for the next local GC scavenge process. The relative sizes of the allocate and survivor spaces are dynamically adjusted by a technique called tilting . When the nursery area is first created, it is evenly divided between the allocate and survivor spaces. If, after a GC scavenge process is run, the amount of space required for the survivor area is comparatively small, the boundary between the two spaces is adjusted by tilting . For example, if the survivor space requires only 10% of the nursery area, the tilt ratio is adjusted to give 90% of the nursery area to the allocate space. With more space available for new objects, garbage collection can be delayed. The tenure age of an object is determined by the VM and reflects the number of times that an object has been copied between the allocate space and the survivor space. The age is in the range 1 - 14 and is adjusted dynamically by the VM depending on the overall amount of space that is used in the nursery area . For example, if an object has a tenure age of 5, it has been copied backwards and forwards between allocate and survivor spaces 5 times. If the VM sets a tenure age of 5 based on the percentage of space remaining in the nursery area, the next scavenge moves the object from the nursery to the tenure area. You can set an initial tenure age with the -Xgc:scvTenureAge option. You can also prevent the VM dynamically adjusting the tenure age by setting the Xgc:scvNoAdaptiveTenure option so that the intial age is maintained throughout the run time of the VM. Within the tenure area, new objects are allocated into the small object area (SOA), which is illustrated in the earlier diagram (see 3.). A large object area (LOA) is set aside for objects greater than 64 KB that cannot be allocated into the SOA to minimize fragmentation. The LOA is allocated by default but is reduced and removed after a few GC cycles if it isn't populated. To prevent the creation of an LOA, you can specify the -Xnoloa option on the command line when you start your application. When the tenure area is close to full a global GC is triggered. The local GC scavenge reduces pause times by freqently reclaiming memory in the nursery area which, for a transactional application with many short-lived objects, has the most recyclable space. However, over time the tenure area might become full. So, whilst a local GC scavenge process is operating on the nursery area, a concurrent global GC process also runs alongside normal program execution to mark and remove unreachable objects from the tenure area. These two GC approaches combine to provide a good trade-off between shorter pause times and consistent throughput. A special mode of the gencon policy is known as Concurrent Scavenge ( -Xgc:concurrentScavenge ), which aims to minimize the time spent in stop-the-world pauses by collecting nursery garbage in parallel with running application threads. This mode can be enabled with hardware-based support and software-based support. Hardware-based support: (Linux on IBM Z\u00ae and z/OS\u00ae) This mode works on the IBM z14\u2122 mainframe system with the Guarded Storage (GS) Facility. The GS Facility provides hardware-based support to detect when potentially stale references to objects are accessed by an application. This means that the garbage collector can start processing objects in parts of the heap without halting an application because the GS Facility is on hand to spot accesses to an object and send a notification. The object that was ready to be swept away can be moved, and references to it can be reset. You can read more about this mode in the following blog posts: Reducing Garbage Collection pause times with Concurrent Scavenge and the Guarded Storage Facility How Concurrent Scavenge using the Guarded Storage Facility Works Software-based support: (64-bit: Linux on (x86-64, POWER, IBM Z\u00ae), AIX\u00ae, and z/OS\u00ae) With software-based support, Concurrent Scavenge can be enabled without any pre-requisite hardware although the performance throughput is not as good as hardware-based support. For more information about enabling Concurrent Scavenge, see the -Xgc:concurrentScavenge option.","title":"Generational Concurrent policy"},{"location":"gc/#other-policies","text":"OpenJ9 has the following alternative GC policies: -Xgcpolicy:balanced divides the Java heap into regions, which are individually managed to reduce the maximum pause time on large heaps and increase the efficiency of garbage collection. The aim of the policy is to avoid global collections by matching object allocation and survival rates. If you have problems with application pause times that are caused by global garbage collections, particularly compactions, this policy might improve application performance, particularly on large systems that have Non-Uniform Memory Architecture (NUMA) characteristics (x86 and POWER platforms). -Xgcpolicy:metronome is designed for applications that require precise response times. Garbage collection occurs in small interruptible steps to avoid stop-the-world pauses. This policy is available only on x86 Linux and AIX platforms. -Xgcpolicy:nogc handles only memory allocation and heap expansion, but doesn't reclaim any memory. The GC impact on runtime performance is therefore minimized, but if the available Java heap becomes exhausted, an OutOfMemoryError exception is triggered and the VM stops. -Xgcpolicy:optavgpause uses concurrent mark and sweep phases, which means that pause times are reduced when compared to optthruput, but at the expense of some performance throughput. -Xgcpolicy:optthruput is optimized for throughput by disabling the concurrent mark phase, which means that applications will stop for long pauses while garbage collection takes place. You might consider using this policy when high application throughput, rather than short garbage collection pauses, is the main performance goal.

DTFJ works with data from a system dump or a Java dump. On Linux and AIX\u00ae operating systems, you can get more information from a system dump if you also have copies of executable files and libraries. You can run the jextract utility provided in the SDK to collect these files into a single archive for use in subsequent problem diagnosis. For more information, see Dump extractor . The DTFJ API helps diagnostic tools access the following information: Memory locations stored in the dump (System dumps only) Relationships between memory locations and Java internals (System dumps only) Java threads running in the VM Native threads held in the dump (System dumps only) Java classes and their class loaders that were present Java objects that were present in the heap (System dumps only) Java monitors and the objects and threads they are associated with Details of the workstation on which the dump was produced (System dumps only) Details of the Java version that was being used The command line that launched the VM If your DTFJ application requests information that is not available in the Java dump, the API will return null or throw a DataUnavailable exception. You might need to adapt DTFJ applications written to process system dumps to make them work with Java dumps. DTFJ is implemented in pure Java and tools written using DTFJ can be cross-platform. Therefore, you can analyze a dump taken from one workstation on another (remote and more convenient) machine. For example, a dump produced on an AIX\u00ae Power\u00ae system can be analyzed on a Windows laptop. API documentation for the DTFJ interface can be found here: Application programming reference: DTFJ Using the DTFJ interface To create applications that use DTFJ, you must use the DTFJ interface. Implementations of this interface have been written that work with system dumps and Java dumps. The diagram that follows illustrates the DTFJ interface. The starting point for working with a dump is to obtain an Image instance by using the ImageFactory class supplied with the concrete implementation of the API. Working with a system dump The following example shows how to work with a system dump. In this example, the only section of code that ties the dump to a particular implementation of DTFJ is the generation of the factory class. Change the factory if you want to use a different implementation. If there is a problem with the file that is passed to the getImage() method, an IOException is thrown and an appropriate message is issued. If a missing file is passed to the example shown, the following output is produced: Could not find/use required file(s) java.io.FileNotFoundException: core_file.xml (The system cannot find the file specified.) at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method) at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:135) at com.ibm.dtfj.image.j9.ImageFactory.getImage(ImageFactory.java:47) at com.ibm.dtfj.image.j9.ImageFactory.getImage(ImageFactory.java:35) at DTFJEX1.main(DTFJEX1.java:23)Copy In this case, the DTFJ implementation is expecting a dump file to exist. Different errors are caught if the file existed but was not recognized as a valid dump file.

The Image instance is the second instance in the class hierarchy for DTFJ illustrated by the following diagram: Some things to note from the diagram: The DTFJ interface is separated into two parts: classes with names that start with Image (the dump, a sequence of bytes with different contents on different platforms) and classes with names that start with Java (the Java internal knowledge). Image and Java classes are linked using a ManagedRuntime class (which is extended by JavaRuntime ). An Image object contains one ImageAddressSpace object (or, on z/OS\u00ae, possibly more). An ImageAddressSpace object contains one ImageProcess object (or, on z/OS, possibly more). Conceptually, you can apply the Image model to any program running with the ImageProcess . For the purposes of this document discussion is limited to the OpenJ9 virtual machine implementations. There is a link from a JavaThread object to its corresponding ImageThread object. Use this link to find out about native code associated with a Java thread, for example JNI functions that have been called from Java. If a JavaThread was not running Java code when the dump was taken, the JavaThread object has no JavaStackFrame objects. In these cases, use the link to the corresponding ImageThread object to find out what native code was running in that thread. This situation is typically the case with the JIT compilation thread and Garbage Collection threads. The DTFJ interface enables you to obtain information about native memory. Native memory is memory requested from the operating system using library functions such as malloc() and mmap() . When the Java runtime allocates native memory, the memory is associated with a high-level memory category. For more information about native memory detailed in a Java dump, see Java dump: NATIVEMEMINFO DTFJ example application This example is a fully working DTFJ application.

If you require a specific library, such as jdwp , with your JVMTI agent, you can specify the path at startup, for example: -agentlib:jdwp=<options> For more information about JVMTI, see https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/management/index.html . For a guide about writing a JVMTI agent, see http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/javase/jvmti-136367.html . OpenJ9 extensions OpenJ9 extensions to the JVMTI allow a JVMTI agent to query or automatically trigger operations in the VM, including the following tasks: Task OpenJ9 extensions Get the OS thread ID GetOSThreadID Query, set, and reset the VM dump options QueryVmDump , SetVmDump , ResetVmDump Trigger a VM dump, and monitor JVMTI event functions when VM dumps start and end TriggerVmDump , VMDumpStart , VMDumpEnd Set VM trace options SetVmTrace Subscribe to and unsubscribe from VM tracepoints RegisterTracePointSubscriber , DeregisterTracePointSubscriber Query runtime environment native memory categories GetMemoryCategories Query and set VM log options QueryVmLogOptions , SetVmLogOptions Search for and remove a shared class cache IterateSharedCaches , DestroySharedCache Subscribe to and unsubscribe from verbose garbage collection (GC) data logging RegisterVerboseGCSubscriber , DeregisterVerboseGCSubscriber The definitions that you need when you write a JVMTI agent are provided in the header files jvmti.h and ibmjvmti.h , in the include directory. Sample JVMTI agent The following sample shows you how to write a simple JVMTI agent that uses OpenJ9 extensions to the JVMTI. Sample JVMTI agent written in C/C++, which uses the OpenJ9 extensions /* * tiSample.c * * Sample JVMTI agent to demonstrate the OpenJ9 JVMTI dump extensions */ #include \"jvmti.h\" #include \"ibmjvmti.h\" /* Forward declarations for JVMTI callback functions */ void JNICALL VMInitCallback(jvmtiEnv *jvmti_env, JNIEnv* jni_env, jthread thread); void JNICALL DumpStartCallback(jvmtiEnv *jvmti_env, char* label, char* event, char* detail, ...); /* * Agent_Onload() * * JVMTI agent initialisation function, invoked as agent is loaded by the VM */ JNIEXPORT jint JNICALL Agent_OnLoad(JavaVM *jvm, char *options, void *reserved) { jvmtiEnv *jvmti = NULL; jvmtiError rc; jint extensionEventCount = 0; jvmtiExtensionEventInfo *extensionEvents = NULL; jint extensionFunctionCount = 0; jvmtiExtensionFunctionInfo *extensionFunctions = NULL; int i = 0, j = 0; printf(\"tiSample: Loading JVMTI sample agent\\n\"); /* Get access to JVMTI */ (*jvm)->GetEnv(jvm, (void **)&jvmti, JVMTI_VERSION_1_0); /* Look up all the JVMTI extension events and functions */ (*jvmti)->GetExtensionEvents(jvmti, &extensionEventCount, &extensionEvents); (*jvmti)->GetExtensionFunctions(jvmti, &extensionFunctionCount, &extensionFunctions); printf(\"tiSample: Found %i JVMTI extension events, %i extension functions\\n\", extensionEventCount, extensionFunctionCount); /* Find the JVMTI extension event we want */ while (i++ < extensionEventCount) { if (strcmp(extensionEvents->id, COM_IBM_VM_DUMP_START) == 0) { /* Found the dump start extension event, now set up a callback for it */ rc = (*jvmti)->SetExtensionEventCallback(jvmti, extensionEvents->extension_event_index, &DumpStartCallback); printf(\"tiSample: Setting JVMTI event callback %s, rc=%i\\n\", COM_IBM_VM_DUMP_START, rc); break; } extensionEvents++; /* move on to the next extension event */ } /* Find the JVMTI extension function we want */ while (j++ < extensionFunctionCount) { jvmtiExtensionFunction function = extensionFunctions->func; if (strcmp(extensionFunctions->id, COM_IBM_SET_VM_DUMP) == 0) { /* Found the set dump extension function, now set a dump option to generate javadumps on thread starts */ rc = function(jvmti, \"java:events=thrstart\"); printf(\"tiSample: Calling JVMTI extension %s, rc=%i\\n\", COM_IBM_SET_VM_DUMP, rc); break; } extensionFunctions++; /* move on to the next extension function */ } return JNI_OK; } /* * DumpStartCallback() * JVMTI callback for dump start event (IBM JVMTI extension) */ void JNICALL DumpStartCallback(jvmtiEnv *jvmti_env, char* label, char* event, char* detail, ...) { printf(\"tiSample: Received JVMTI event callback, for event %s\\n\", event); } The sample JVMTI agent consists of two functions, Agent_OnLoad() and DumpStartCallback() : Agent_OnLoad() This function is called by the VM when the agent is loaded at VM startup, which allows the JVMTI agent to modify VM behavior before initialization is complete. The sample agent obtains access to the JVMTI interface by using the JNI Invocation API function GetEnv() . The agent calls the APIs GetExtensionEvents() and GetExtensionFunctions() to find the JVMTI extensions that are supported by the VM. These APIs provide access to the list of extensions available in the jvmtiExtensionEventInfo and jvmtiExtensionFunctionInfo structures. The sample uses an extension event and an extension function in the following way: Extension event: The sample JVMTI agent searches for the extension event VmDumpStart in the list of jvmtiExtensionEventInfo structures, by using the identifier COM_IBM_VM_DUMP_START provided in ibmjvmti.h . When the event is found, the JVMTI agent calls the JVMTI interface SetExtensionEventCallback() to enable the event, providing a function DumpStartCallback() that is called when the event is triggered. Extension function: Next, the sample JVMTI agent searches for the extension function SetVMDump in the list of jvmtiExtensionFunctionInfo structures, by using the identifier COM_IBM_SET_VM_DUMP provided in ibmjvmti.h . The JVMTI agent calls the function by using the jvmtiExtensionFunction pointer to set a VM dump option java:events=thrstart . This option requests the VM to trigger a Java dump every time a VM thread is started. DumpStartCallback() This callback function issues a message when the associated extension event is called. In the sample code, DumpStartCallback() is used when the VmDumpStart event is triggered. Using the sample JVMTI agent Build the sample JVMTI agent: Windows: cl /I<jre_path>\\include /MD /FetiSample.dll tiSample.c /link /DLL Linux, AIX\u00ae, and z/OS\u00ae: gcc -I<jre_path>/include -o libtiSample.so -shared tiSample.c where <jre_path> is the path to your Java runtime environment installation. To run the sample JVMTI agent, use the command: java -agentlib:tiSample -version When the sample JVMTI agent loads, messages are generated. When the JVMTI agent initiates a Java dump, the message JVMDUMP010 is issued. API reference The following sections provide reference information for the OpenJ9 extensions to the JVMTI.

Native memory is memory requested from the operating system using library functions such as malloc() and mmap() . Runtime environment native memory use is grouped under high-level memory categories, as described in the NATIVEMEMINFO section of the Java dump topic. The data returned by the GetMemoryCategories() API is consistent with this format. See Java dump: NATIVEMEMINFO . The extension writes native memory information to a memory buffer specified by the user. Each memory category is recorded as a jvmtiMemoryCategory structure, whose format is defined in ibmjvmti.h . You can use the GetMemoryCategories() API to work out the buffer size you must allocate to hold all memory categories defined inside the VM. To calculate the size, call the API with a null categories_buffer argument and a non-null total_categories_ptr argument. Parameters env : A pointer to the JVMTI environment. version : The version of the jvmtiMemoryCategory structure that you are using. Use COM_IBM_GET_MEMORY_CATEGORIES_VERSION_1 for this argument, unless you must work with an obsolete version of the jvmtiMemoryCategory structure. max_categories : The number of jvmtiMemoryCategory structures that can fit in the categories_buffer memory buffer. categories_buffer : A pointer to the memory buffer for holding the result of the GetMemoryCategories() call. The number of jvmtiMemoryCategory slots available in the categories_buffer memory buffer must be accurately specified with max_categories , otherwise GetMemoryCategories() can overflow the memory buffer. The value can be null. written_count_ptr : A pointer to jint to store the number of jvmtiMemoryCategory structures to be written to the categories_buffer memory buffer. The value can be null. total_categories_ptr : A pointer to jint to store the total number of memory categories declared in the VM. The value can be null. Returns JVMTI_ERROR_NONE : Success. JVMTI_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_VERSION : Unrecognized value passed for version.

The syntax of the string is the same as the -Xlog command-line option, with the initial -Xlog: omitted. For example, the string \"error,warn\" indicates that the VM is set to log error and warning messages only. For more information, see -Xlog . Parameters jvmti_env : A pointer to the JVMTI environment. buffer_size : The size of the supplied memory buffer in bytes. If the memory buffer is too small to contain the current VM log option string, the JVMTI_ERROR_ILLEGAL_ARGUMENT error message is returned. options_buffer : A pointer to the supplied memory buffer. data_size_ptr : A pointer to a variable, used to return the total size of the option string.

In this case, use the following set of macros to access the address mode and compressed reference mode: To get the address mode, use: COM_IBM_ITERATE_SHARED_CACHES_GET_ADDR_MODE(jvmtiSharedCacheInfo.addrMode) This macro returns one of the following values: COM_IBM_SHARED_CACHE_ADDRMODE_32 COM_IBM_SHARED_CACHE_ADDRMODE_64 To get the compressed references mode, use: COM_IBM_ITERATE_SHARED_CACHES_GET_CMPRSSREF_MODE(jvmtiSharedCacheInfo.addrMode) This macro returns one of the following values: COM_IBM_ITERATE_SHARED_CACHES_UNKNOWN_COMPRESSED_POINTERS_MODE COM_IBM_ITERATE_SHARED_CACHES_COMPRESSED_POINTERS_MODE COM_IBM_ITERATE_SHARED_CACHES_NON_COMPRESSED_POINTERS_MODE The field softMaxBytes is included when COM_IBM_ITERATE_SHARED_CACHES_VERSION_4 or later is specified. DestroySharedCache You can remove a shared class cache by using the DestroySharedCache() API: jvmtiError DestroySharedCache(jvmtiEnv *env, const char *cacheDir, const char *name, jint persistence, jboolean useCommandLineValues, jint *internalErrorCode); This extension removes a named shared class cache of a given persistence type, in a given directory. You can specify the cache name, persistence type, and directory in one of these ways: Set useCommandLineValues to true and specify the values on the command line. If a value is not available, the default values for the platform are used. Set useCommandLineValues to false and use the cacheDir , persistence and cacheName parameters to identify the cache to be removed.

A Java program requires a specific VM to run on a particular platform, such as Linux\u00ae, z/OS\u00ae, or Windows\u2122. This reference material provides information about the VM configuration and tuning options, together with the default settings. Configuring your system For normal operation, certain environment variables must be set at the operating system level. Depending on your system environment, you might also want to set other configuration options that allow the VM to exploit hardware and operating system features. Read Customizing your system to learn more about the following options: Setting the PATH and CLASSPATH environment variable. Setting the LIBPATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable (AIX\u00ae and Linux) to indicate where to find shared libraries. Setting ulimits on AIX and Linux systems to ensure that the operating system allocates sufficient resources for your application. Setting region size, BPXPRM parameters, and Language Environment\u00ae runtime options on z/OS systems. If your application allocates a large amount of memory and frequently accesses that memory, you might want to enable large page support on your system. See Configuring large page memory allocation . Configuring Dynamic LPAR support on AIX systems. Note: On macOS\u00ae systems, you must set the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to indicate where to find shared libraries. In addition, to ensure there are sufficient resources for your application, you might need to increase system limits by using launchctl , ulimit , or kern.<VARIABLES> . For further instructions, refer to the documentation for your macOS release. Performance tuning OpenJ9 is configured to start with a set of default options that provide the optimal runtime environment for Java applications with typical workloads. However, if your application is atypical, you can improve performance by tuning the OpenJ9 VM. You can also improve performance by enabling hardware features or using specific APIs in your application code. Garbage collection policies OpenJ9 includes several garbage collection policies. To learn more about these policies and the types of application workload that can benefit from them, see Garbage Collection . Class data sharing You can share class data between running VMs, which can reduce the startup time for a VM once the cache has been created. For more information, see Class Data Sharing . Native data operations If your Java application manipulates native data, consider writing your application to take advantage of methods in the Data Access Accelerator API. Cloud optimizations To improve the performance of applications that run in containers, try setting the following tuning options: Use a shared classes cache ( -Xshareclasses -XX:SharedCacheHardLimit=200m -Xscmx60m ) with Ahead-Of-Time (AOT) compilation to improve your startup time. For more information, see Class Data Sharing and AOT Compiler . Use the -Xtune:virtualized option, which configures OpenJ9 for typical cloud deployments where VM guests are provisioned with a small number of virtual CPUs to maximize the number of applications that can be run. When enabled, OpenJ9 adapts its internal processes to reduce the amount of CPU consumed and trim down the memory footprint. These changes come at the expense of only a small loss in throughput. The OpenJ9 VM automatically detects when it is running in a docker container and uses a mechanism to detect when the VM is idle. When an idle state is detected, OpenJ9 runs a garbage collection cycle and releases free memory pages back to the operating system. The object heap is also compacted to make best use of the available memory for further application processing. For cloud services that charge based on memory usage, maintaining a small footprint can generate cost savings. For more information about tuning options that control this process, see -XX:IdleTuningMinIdleWaitTime . Cryptographic operations OpenJDK uses the in-built Java cryptographic implementation by default. However, native cryptographic implementations typically provide better performance. OpenSSL is a native open source cryptographic toolkit for Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols, which is well established and used with many enterprise applications. The OpenSSL V1.0.x and V1.1.x implementations are currently supported for the Digest, CBC, GCM, and RSA algorithms. The OpenSSL V1.1.x implementation is also supported for the ChaCha20 and ChaCha20-Poly1305 algorithms. Restriction: Due to issue #5611 , the Digest algorithm is currently disabled. On Linux and AIX platforms, the OpenSSL 1.0.x or 1.1.x library is expected to be found on the system path. If you use a package manager to install OpenSSL, the system path will be updated automatically. On other platforms, the OpenSSL 1.1.x library is currently bundled with the binaries from AdoptOpenJDK. OpenSSL support is enabled by default for all supported algorithms. If you want to limit support to specific algorithms, a number of system properties are available for tuning the implementation. Each algorithm can be disabled individually by setting the following system properties on the command line: To turn off Digest , set -Djdk.nativeDigest=false (See Restriction . This system property cannot be used to enable the Digest algorithm) To turn off ChaCha20 and ChaCha20-Poly1305 , set -Djdk.nativeChaCha20=false . Note: These algorithms are not supported on Java 8 or 12 To turn off CBC , set -Djdk.nativeCBC=false To turn off GCM , set -Djdk.nativeGCM=false To turn off RSA , set -Djdk.nativeRSA=false You can turn off all the algorithms by setting the following system property on the command line: -Djdk.nativeCrypto=false To build a version of OpenJDK with OpenJ9 that includes OpenSSL support, follow the steps in our detailed build instructions: OpenJDK 8 with OpenJ9 .

For a detailed list of runtime options, see OpenJ9 command-line options Default settings If you do not specify any options on the command line at run time, the OpenJ9 VM starts with default settings that define how it operates. For more information about these settings, see Default settings for the OpenJ9 VM . Using Jlink On Java 11 and later, you can use the jlink utility to create a custom OpenJ9 runtime image, which allows you to optimize image size. If you do not require translations from the English language, the translation files can be removed to further optimize the size. You can achieve this by specifying the --exclude-files=**java_**.properties option when you run jlink . The default English java.properties file is unaffected. Troubleshooting The OpenJ9 diagnostic component contains extensive features to assist with problem determination.

Without the JIT, the VM has to interpret the bytecodes itself - a process that requires extra CPU and memory. The JIT compiler doesn't compile every method that gets called because thousands of methods can be called at startup. Instead, OpenJ9 records the number of times a method is called. When the count reaches a pre-defined invocation threshold , JIT compilation is triggered. Once a method has been compiled by the JIT, the VM can call the compiled method rather than interpreting it. Optimization levels The JIT compiler can compile a method at different optimization levels: cold , warm , hot , very hot (with profiling) , or scorching . The hotter the optimization level, the better the expected performance, but the higher the cost in terms of CPU and memory. cold is used during startup processing for large applications where the goal is to achieve the best compiled code speed for as many methods as possible. warm is the workhorse; after start-up, most methods are compiled when they reach the invocation threshold. For higher optimization levels, the VM uses a sampling thread to identify methods that continue to take a lot of time. Methods that consume more than 1% are compiled at hot. Methods that consume more than 12.5% are scheduled for a scorching compilation. However, before that happens the methods are compiled at very hot with profiling to collect detailed profile data that is used by the scorching compilation. The higher optimization levels use special techniques such as escape analysis and partial redundancy elimination, or loop through certain optimization sequences more times. Although these techniques use more CPU and memory, the improved performance that is delivered by the optimizations can make the tradeoff worthwhile. Troubleshooting The JIT compiler is enabled by default to optimize performance. However, if you experience a problem running your application, temporarily turning off the JIT will tell you whether the JIT is at fault. Because JIT starts at the same time as the VM, you can only modify JIT behavior at startup. There are a number of ways to disable the JIT: Specify -Djava.compiler=NONE on the command line. Specify -Xint on the command line, which turns off the JIT and AOT compiler. To eliminate problems with one or the other you can turn these compilers off selectively with the -Xnojit and -Xnoaot options. Call the java.lang.Compiler API programmatically. Note: java.lang.Compiler is deprecated for removal in Java SE 9. If turning off the JIT solves your problem, you can investigate JIT operations in more detail by using a number of options to control behavior. Turning on verbose logging with the verbose suboption causes the JIT to record all compiler operations. However, the log file can be difficult to read because there are so many complex operations occuring in rapid succession. Follow these steps to simplify operations, which helps you pinpoint the root cause: Turn off multiple compilation threads The JIT compiler can use more than one compilation thread, which typically improves startup performance. The number of threads is determined by the VM, depending on the system configuration. You can turn off multiple threads by using the -XcompilationThreads option, which simplifies the output in the verbose log. Lower the invocation threshold When the invocation count is set to 0 , the JIT compiles every method and your application will fail immediately when the method causing the problem is reached. You can alter the threshold with the count suboption. Turn off inlining Inlining is a complex process that generates larger and more complex code. To eliminate errors caused by these operations, use the disableImlining suboption. Decrease the optimization levels Use the optlevel suboption to gradually decrease the compiler optimization levels to see whether you can isolate the level at which your problem occurs. More information about these suboptions and the command line syntax is covered in -Xjit . Understanding JIT verbose logs At first glance, a JIT verbose log can look very complex. To help you understand the log we'll look at JIT compiler operations when you run the java -version command. The following option turns on verbose logging and directs output to a log file called vlogfile : java -Xjit:verbose,vlog=vlogfile -version The first section of the log includes lines that start with #INFO: , which provides information about the environment that the JIT is operating in. You can determine the version of the JIT and VM that you are using, and the type and number of processors that the JIT has access to. #INFO: _______________________________________ #INFO: Version Information: #INFO: JIT Level - e24e8aa9 #INFO: JVM Level - 20180315_120 #INFO: GC Level - e24e8aa9 #INFO: #INFO: Processor Information: #INFO: Platform Info:X86 Intel P6 #INFO: Vendor:GenuineIntel #INFO: numProc=1 #INFO: #INFO: _______________________________________ #INFO: AOT #INFO: options specified: #INFO: samplingFrequency=2 #INFO: #INFO: options in effect: #INFO: verbose=1 #INFO: vlog=vlogfile #INFO: compressedRefs shiftAmount=0 #INFO: compressedRefs isLowMemHeap=1 #INFO: _______________________________________ #INFO: JIT #INFO: options specified: #INFO: verbose,vlog=vlogfile #INFO: #INFO: options in effect: #INFO: verbose=1 #INFO: vlog=vlogfile #INFO: compressedRefs shiftAmount=0 #INFO: compressedRefs isLowMemHeap=1 #INFO: StartTime: Apr 23 09:49:10 2018 #INFO: Free Physical Memory: 996188 KB #INFO: CPU entitlement = 100.00 This section also shows the AOT and JIT options that are in force.

The value @22 at the end of the pointer is a bytecode index, which describes the bytecode index of the call that is being inlined. The call is 81670d20 bcsz=37 java/lang/String.lengthInternal()I , which shows the corresponding internal pointer, bytecode size (bcsz) and the name of the method that got inlined. Going through the #INL output line by line then: java/lang/String.lengthInternal()I got inlined into its caller 4dce72bd at bytecode index @22. java/lang/String.lengthInternal()I also got inlined into its caller 4dce72bd at bytecode index @28. java/lang/String.regionMatchesInternal(...) got inlined at call reference 4dce72bd at bytecode index @104. Then 4 distinct calls to java/lang/String.charAtInternal(I[C)C were also inlined into java/lang/String.regionMatchesInternal(...) : #3 at bytecode index @121 of regionMatchesInternal #4 at bytecode index @131 of regionMatchesInternal #5 at bytecode index @156 of regionMatchesInternal #6 at bytecode index @166 of regionMatchesInternal These were all the calls that the inliner decided to inline into the method being compiled. There is some additional output that describes calls to methods that weren't inlined: #INL: 4dce72bd called 4dce72bd@120 -> f734b49c bcsz=233 java/lang/String.deduplicateStrings(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)V #INL: 4dce72bd coldCalled 4dce72bd@104 -> bf62dcaf bcsz=182 java/lang/String.regionMatchesInternal(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;[C[CIII)Z #INL: 4dce72bd coldCalled 4dce72bd@104 -> bf62dcaf bcsz=182 java/lang/String.regionMatchesInternal(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;[C[CIII)Z While the output does not specifically say why these methods were not inlined, the relatively larger bytecode size ( bcsz=233 ) probably prevented the first method from being inlined. It's possible that, at a higher optimization level than cold, this deduplicateStrings method may get inlined. The coldCalled label on the last two lines, however, indicate that these calls are located in a part of the method that has not ever been executed, so the JIT decided that inlining those last two methods will probably increase compile time without much promise that it will improve performance. By reading the log in this way you can reconstruct the tree of inlines that are taking place as the compilation proceeds. You can see which methods are being inlined and which methods are not being inlined.

Without the JIT, the VM has to interpret the bytecodes itself - a process that requires extra CPU and memory. The JIT compiler doesn't compile every method that gets called because thousands of methods can be called at startup. Instead, OpenJ9 records the number of times a method is called. When the count reaches a pre-defined invocation threshold , JIT compilation is triggered. Once a method has been compiled by the JIT, the VM can call the compiled method rather than interpreting it.","title":"The JIT compiler"},{"location":"jit/#optimization-levels","text":"The JIT compiler can compile a method at different optimization levels: cold , warm , hot , very hot (with profiling) , or scorching . The hotter the optimization level, the better the expected performance, but the higher the cost in terms of CPU and memory. cold is used during startup processing for large applications where the goal is to achieve the best compiled code speed for as many methods as possible. warm is the workhorse; after start-up, most methods are compiled when they reach the invocation threshold. For higher optimization levels, the VM uses a sampling thread to identify methods that continue to take a lot of time. Methods that consume more than 1% are compiled at hot. Methods that consume more than 12.5% are scheduled for a scorching compilation. However, before that happens the methods are compiled at very hot with profiling to collect detailed profile data that is used by the scorching compilation. The higher optimization levels use special techniques such as escape analysis and partial redundancy elimination, or loop through certain optimization sequences more times. Although these techniques use more CPU and memory, the improved performance that is delivered by the optimizations can make the tradeoff worthwhile.","title":"Optimization levels"},{"location":"jit/#troubleshooting","text":"The JIT compiler is enabled by default to optimize performance. However, if you experience a problem running your application, temporarily turning off the JIT will tell you whether the JIT is at fault. Because JIT starts at the same time as the VM, you can only modify JIT behavior at startup. There are a number of ways to disable the JIT: Specify -Djava.compiler=NONE on the command line. Specify -Xint on the command line, which turns off the JIT and AOT compiler. To eliminate problems with one or the other you can turn these compilers off selectively with the -Xnojit and -Xnoaot options. Call the java.lang.Compiler API programmatically.

The coldCalled label on the last two lines, however, indicate that these calls are located in a part of the method that has not ever been executed, so the JIT decided that inlining those last two methods will probably increase compile time without much promise that it will improve performance. By reading the log in this way you can reconstruct the tree of inlines that are taking place as the compilation proceeds. You can see which methods are being inlined and which methods are not being inlined.","title":"Understanding JIT verbose logs"},{"location":"jit/#see-also","text":"Diagnosing a JIT or AOT problem","title":"See also"},{"location":"legal/","text":"Legal License agreement, notices, copyright, and trademark information for the user documentation.

Understanding what the messages mean can help you with problem determination. Message categories There are three main categories of message: Information Information messages provide information about VM processing. For example, a dump information message is typically issued when a dump agent requests a dump. Warning Warning messages are issued by the VM to indicate conditions that might need user intervention. Error Error messages are issued by the VM when normal processing cannot proceed, because of unexpected conditions. OpenJ9 virtual machine messages have the following format: JVM<type><number><code> where: JVM is a standard prefix. <type> refers to the VM subcomponent that issued the message. <number> is a unique numerical number. <code> is one of the following codes: I - Information message W - Warning message E - Error message These messages can help you with problem determination. By default, all error and some information messages are routed to the system log and also written to stderr or stdout . The specific information messages are JVMDUMP039I , JVMDUMP032I , and JVMDUMP033I , which provide valuable additional information about dumps produced by the VM. To route additional message types to the system log, or turn off message logging to the system log, use the -Xlog option. The -Xlog option does not affect messages written to the standard error stream (stderr). See OpenJ9 command-line options . Finding logged messages Logged messages can be found in different locations, according to platform. Finding AIX messages On AIX\u00ae, messages are logged by the syslog daemon ( /usr/sbin/syslogd ). Logged messages are written to the syslog file that is configured in /etc/syslog.conf . If the syslog daemon is not running, logged messages are lost. You can redirect messages from the syslog daemon to the AIX error log facility by performing the following configuration steps: Set up a redirect in the file syslog.conf so that syslog messages are sent to the error log, by adding the following line: user.debug errlog If syslogd is already running, reload the updated configuration by running the following command: refresh -s syslogd The updated configuration is used each time syslogd starts. 4. Use the AIX errpt command or the System Management Interface Tool (SMIT) to read the messages sent to the error log. For more information about AIX logging, see: Error-logging overview . Finding Linux messages On Linux\u00ae, messages are logged by the syslog daemon. To find where messages are logged, check the syslog configuration file. Finding macOS messages On macOS\u00ae, messages are logged by the syslog daemon. However, on Sierra and High Sierra, syslog does not work. If /var/log/system.log is not available, Console.app can be used instead. Finding Windows messages On Windows\u2122, messages are logged in the application events section of the event viewer. Finding z/OS messages On z/OS\u00ae, messages are sent to the operator console. To see the messages, go from the ispf panel to the sdsf panel, then open the log panel. Obtaining detailed message descriptions Detailed message information is available to help with problem diagnosis. Understanding the warning or error message issued by the VM can help you diagnose problems. All warning and error messages issued by the VM are listed by type in the messages guide: IBM\u00ae VM messages . The messages, error codes, and exit codes in this guide apply to multiple versions of the VM. Note: If the VM fills all available memory, the message number might be produced without a description for the error that caused the problem.

The Eclipse OpenJ9 virtual machine (VM) implements the Java Virtual Machine Specification . Most Java applications should run on an OpenJDK that contains the OpenJ9 VM without changing anything. However, because it is an independent implementation there are some differences compared to the HotSpot VM, which is the default OpenJDK VM and is also included in an Oracle JDK. Command-line options Although OpenJ9 implements its own command-line interface, many Hotspot options are recognized and accepted by the VM for compatibility. Any -XX: options that are not recognized by the VM are ignored by default, which prevents an application failing to start. You can turn off this behavior with the -XX:-IgnoreUnrecognizedXXColonOptions option. For a list of compatible options, see Switching to OpenJ9 in the Command-line options section. Garbage collection policies Eclipse OpenJ9 has a number of GC policies designed around different types of applications and workloads. By default, OpenJ9 uses the Generational Concurrent ( gencon ) GC policy, which is best suited for transactional applications that have many short-lived objects. The policy aims to minimize GC pause times without compromising throughput. If you are using Java 8, the gencon policy is similar to the ParallelGC policy, which is the default HotSpot policy. If you are using Java 11, the OpenJ9 balanced ( balanced ) policy is most similar to the default HotSpot policy. If you have a different type of workload, you might want to select a different GC policy. For a summary of available policies, see Garbage collection . For more information about the differences between OpenJ9 GC policies and how to choose the right one for your application, see Eclipse OpenJ9: Garbage collection tradeoffs and tuning with OpenJ9 . To start your application with a different policy, use the -Xgcpolicy option on the command line. Operational tooling If you are a Java application developer or you are responsible for managing large server or desktop deployments of a Java runtime environment, you probably use a number of tools for monitoring, management, and troubleshooting. Because OpenJ9 is an independent implementation, it has evolved with its own approach for these areas and, in some cases, its own unique tools. In other cases, tools have been added for compatibility with the reference implementation, but these tools might differ in behavior from equivalent tools in HotSpot. For a list of these tools, see Switching to OpenJ9 in the Tools section. Dumps, logs, and trace files OpenJ9 contains extensive trace and debugging capabilities to help identify, isolate, and solve run time problems. Dump files: Various types of dump are produced by default in response to certain events and can also be triggered for a whole range of events by using the com.ibm.jvm.Dump API or by specifying -Xdump options on the command line. Dumps include Java dumps , heap dumps , system dumps , JIT dumps, stack dumps, and snap dumps (tracepoint data). For more information, see the -Xdump option. Verbose log files: Some components of OpenJ9 can also produce verbose output or log files to assist with problem determination, including class data sharing , garbage collection , and the JIT compiler . Trace files: The OpenJ9 implementation contains extensive tracepoints used to log information and exceptional conditions, with minimal impact on performance. Some tracepoints are enabled by default; others can be enabled on demand. For more information, see the -Xtrace option for tracing Java applications and the VM, and the -Xtgc option for tracing garbage collection. If you are familiar with using HotSpot as part of an Oracle JDK or OpenJDK, you probably make use of the monitoring and diagnostic tools that are provided with the VM. OpenJ9 has implemented a different approach to providing similar data; rather than running a number of different tools to obtain a different piece of information, the Java dump file provides a comprehensive set of information in one place. You can find the following information in an OpenJ9 Java dump: The system the VM is running on and the resources available. The Java execution environment, including the options set from the command line. The native memory used by the VM, broken down by VM component. Memory usage in the VM for the object heap and internal VM structures, such as the JIT code cache. Lock operations that protect shared resources during runtime. Java threads, native threads, and stack traces. Hook interfaces, for performance analysis. Details about the shared classes cache, if used. Detailed information about classloaders, together with a list of libraries and classes that are loaded. For more information, see Java dump . Tools OpenJ9 provides support for a number of monitoring and diagnostic tools that can be found in the Eclipse marketplace . Each tool provides a graphical user interface to help you visualize data and, in some cases, can provide tuning or debugging recommendations. Health Center: Provides real-time monitoring of running applications with minimal overhead over the network. You can monitor a whole range of operations including, class loading, CPU usage, GC heap and pause times, I/O activity, lock contention, method trace, native memory usage, profiling, and live threads. For more information, read the Health Center documentation . Garbage Collection Memory Vizualizer (GCMV): Plots GC and native memory data over time. You can view and save data as a report, raw log, tabulated data, or in graphical format. The tool helps to diagnose problems such as memory leaks with data presented in various visual formats for analysis. Tuning recommendations are also provided. For more information, read the GCMV documentation . Memory Analyzer: Examines the Java object heap to help find memory leaks or reduce memory consumption. Support is available for OpenJ9 via the DTFJ interface (Install from the Eclipse Help menu; Install New Software > Work with \"IBM Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java\" > IBM Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools > Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java). More information about Eclipse MAT can be found on the project website page . Interactive Diagnostic Data Explorer (IDDE): A GUI alternative to the OpenJ9 dump viewer , which can examine the contents of an OpenJ9 system dump. For more information, read the IDDE documentation . If you are familiar with using HotSpot as part of an Oracle JDK or OpenJDK, the Java VisualVM utility is functionally similar to Health Center. Most of the other tools provided with HotSpot are not officially supported, but equivalent functionality is available in OpenJ9 through command-line options, dump agents, and AttachAPI. Interfaces OpenJ9 provides the following interfaces, which can be used for monitoring and diagnostic purposes: JVMTI : OpenJ9 supports the Java Virtual Machine Tool Interface (JVMTI) and provides extensions that allow JVMTI tools to obtain diagnostic information or trigger diagnostic operations in the VM. For more information about this interface, see Java Virtual Machine Tool Interface . DTFJ interface : The Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java (DTFJ) API allows custom applications to be written that can access a wide range of information in a system dump or a Java dump. DTFJ can be used with the Eclipse Memory Analyzer Toolkit (MAT) to examine the Java object heap for memory leaks and to reduce memory consumption. For more information about DTFJ, see Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java . java.lang.management API: OpenJ9 provides MXBean additions and extensions to this standard API, which enables you to use tools such as JConsole to monitor and manage your Java applications. For more information, see MBeans and MXBeans in the IBM\u00ae Knowledge Center. If you are familiar with using HotSpot as part of an Oracle JDK or OpenJDK, you might make use of certain com.sun.management interfaces. Although OpenJ9 implements some of these interfaces, a few are specific to the HotSpot VM. The following table indicates alternative classes or mechanisms that you can use for equivalent function in OpenJ9: Hotspot-specific classes Alternatives for OpenJ9 HotSpotDiagnosticMXBean OpenJ9DiagnosticsMXBean (for heap dumps) MissionControl Use Health Center MissionControlMXBean Use Health Center ThreadMXBean JvmCpuMonitorMXBean (for thread time) VMOption OpenJ9 Java dump (option -Xdump:java ) DiagnosticCommandMBean None Note: OpenJ9 implements the following com.sun.management interfaces: GarbageCollectorMXBean , GarbageCollectionNotificationInfo , GcInfo , OperatingSystemMXBean , UnixOperatingSystemMXBean . Other differences This topic describes the differences between the HotSpot VM and the Eclipse OpenJ9 VM. Therefore, if you are currently using an OpenJDK with the default Hotspot VM and you want to switch to using an OpenJDK with the OpenJ9 VM, these are the only differences you might be concerned about. If however, you are using an Oracle JDK, you might want to learn about differences between other components that make up an Oracle JDK or an OpenJDK from the AdoptOpenJDK community.

For a list of these tools, see Switching to OpenJ9 in the Tools section.","title":"Operational tooling"},{"location":"openj9_newuser/#dumps-logs-and-trace-files","text":"OpenJ9 contains extensive trace and debugging capabilities to help identify, isolate, and solve run time problems. Dump files: Various types of dump are produced by default in response to certain events and can also be triggered for a whole range of events by using the com.ibm.jvm.Dump API or by specifying -Xdump options on the command line. Dumps include Java dumps , heap dumps , system dumps , JIT dumps, stack dumps, and snap dumps (tracepoint data). For more information, see the -Xdump option. Verbose log files: Some components of OpenJ9 can also produce verbose output or log files to assist with problem determination, including class data sharing , garbage collection , and the JIT compiler . Trace files: The OpenJ9 implementation contains extensive tracepoints used to log information and exceptional conditions, with minimal impact on performance. Some tracepoints are enabled by default; others can be enabled on demand. For more information, see the -Xtrace option for tracing Java applications and the VM, and the -Xtgc option for tracing garbage collection. If you are familiar with using HotSpot as part of an Oracle JDK or OpenJDK, you probably make use of the monitoring and diagnostic tools that are provided with the VM. OpenJ9 has implemented a different approach to providing similar data; rather than running a number of different tools to obtain a different piece of information, the Java dump file provides a comprehensive set of information in one place. You can find the following information in an OpenJ9 Java dump: The system the VM is running on and the resources available. The Java execution environment, including the options set from the command line. The native memory used by the VM, broken down by VM component. Memory usage in the VM for the object heap and internal VM structures, such as the JIT code cache. Lock operations that protect shared resources during runtime. Java threads, native threads, and stack traces. Hook interfaces, for performance analysis. Details about the shared classes cache, if used. Detailed information about classloaders, together with a list of libraries and classes that are loaded.

You can monitor a whole range of operations including, class loading, CPU usage, GC heap and pause times, I/O activity, lock contention, method trace, native memory usage, profiling, and live threads. For more information, read the Health Center documentation . Garbage Collection Memory Vizualizer (GCMV): Plots GC and native memory data over time. You can view and save data as a report, raw log, tabulated data, or in graphical format. The tool helps to diagnose problems such as memory leaks with data presented in various visual formats for analysis. Tuning recommendations are also provided.

Start up performance is improved by placing classes that an application needs when initializing into a shared classes cache. The next time the application runs, it takes much less time to start because the classes are already available. When you enable class data sharing, AOT compilation is also enabled by default, which dynamically compiles certain methods into AOT code at runtime. By using these features in combination, startup performance can be improved even further because the cached AOT code can be used to quickly enable native code performance for subsequent runs of your application. When class data sharing is enabled, OpenJ9 automatically creates a memory mapped file that stores and shares the classes in memory. The shared classes cache is updated dynamically; When an application loads new classes, the JVM automatically stores them in the cache without any user intervention. Memory footprint is reduced by sharing common classes between applications that run in separate Java VMs. Enabling class data sharing Class data sharing is enabled by default for bootstrap classes only (the equivalent of specifying -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly,nonFatal,silent ), unless your application is running in a container. If you want to change the default behaviour, use the -Xshareclasses option on the command line. For example: You can change the name and location of the default shared classes cache. You can enable messages about the default shared classes cache by using the default command line option without the silent suboption: -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly,nonFatal . Note: If you have multiple VMs and you do not change the default shared classes behavior, the VMs will share a single default cache, assuming that the VMs are from a single Java installation. If the VMs are from different Java installations, the cache might be deleted and recreated; for more information, see the following section about best practices. You can treat the default cache like any other shared classes cache, for example you can print statistics for it, change the soft maximum limit size, or delete it. You can enable class data sharing for non-bootstrap classes as well, by using -Xshareclasses without the bootClassesOnly suboption. You can also disable all class data sharing by using the none suboption. Best practices for using -Xshareclasses The -Xshareclasses option is highly configurable, allowing you to specify where to create the cache, how much space to allocate for AOT code and more. You can also set the cache size by using the -Xscmx option. When shared classes is enabled, it is good practice to specify some of the cache behavior: Set an application-specific cache name ( -Xshareclasses:name=<name> ). If a cache with the specified name doesn't already exist, a new cache is created. This avoids sharing your application cache with a cache that is enabled by default or with another application that doesn't set a name, and ensures that the size of your application cache can be set appropriately and that cache space is used exclusively for your application. Note: You cannot change the size of a default cache that already exists by using the -Xscmx option, as that option has no effect on a pre-existing cache. Set a specific cache directory ( -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=<directory> ). Set a cache directory that is specific to your application, to avoid sharing the default cache directory with the default cache, or other application caches that don't set a cache directory. Your application will be unaffected by a user running java -Xshareclasses:destroyAll . In addition, if you have VMs from different Java installations, of the same Java release and installed by the same user, each VM checks whether the existing default shared cache in the cache directory is from the same Java installation as the VM. If not, the VM deletes that shared cache, then creates a new one. Specifying a different cache directory for each Java installation avoids this situation. Ensure that the cache directory permissions are set appropriately ( -Xshareclasses:cacheDirPerm ). It is good practice to explicitly set permissions for the cache directory when the defaults are not appropriate. Set the -Xshareclasses:nonfatal option. This option means that your application can start even if there is a problem opening or creating the shared cache, in which case, the VM might be able to start without class data sharing. Support for custom class loaders Classes are shared by the bootstrap class loader internally in the OpenJ9 VM. If you are using a custom class loader, you can use the Java Helper API to find and store classes in the shared class cache. For more information, see Using the Java Helper API . Cache utilities Several utilities are provided for managing active caches, which are invoked by specifying -Xshareclasses suboptions. These utilities control the following types of operations: Adjust the minimum and maximum amount of cache space reserved for AOT or JIT data. Adjust the soft maximum size of the cache. Create snapshots of a cache. Create a cache from a snapshot. Remove caches and cache snapshots. List all the compatible and incompatible caches and snapshots. For problem determination, invalidate and revalidate AOT methods that cause a failure in an application. For problem determination, provide information to analyze the contents of a shared classes cache. For more information, see -Xshareclasses .

By using these features in combination, startup performance can be improved even further because the cached AOT code can be used to quickly enable native code performance for subsequent runs of your application. When class data sharing is enabled, OpenJ9 automatically creates a memory mapped file that stores and shares the classes in memory. The shared classes cache is updated dynamically; When an application loads new classes, the JVM automatically stores them in the cache without any user intervention. Memory footprint is reduced by sharing common classes between applications that run in separate Java VMs.","title":"Class data sharing"},{"location":"shrc/#enabling-class-data-sharing","text":"Class data sharing is enabled by default for bootstrap classes only (the equivalent of specifying -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly,nonFatal,silent ), unless your application is running in a container. If you want to change the default behaviour, use the -Xshareclasses option on the command line. For example: You can change the name and location of the default shared classes cache. You can enable messages about the default shared classes cache by using the default command line option without the silent suboption: -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly,nonFatal . Note: If you have multiple VMs and you do not change the default shared classes behavior, the VMs will share a single default cache, assuming that the VMs are from a single Java installation. If the VMs are from different Java installations, the cache might be deleted and recreated; for more information, see the following section about best practices. You can treat the default cache like any other shared classes cache, for example you can print statistics for it, change the soft maximum limit size, or delete it. You can enable class data sharing for non-bootstrap classes as well, by using -Xshareclasses without the bootClassesOnly suboption. You can also disable all class data sharing by using the none suboption.","title":"Enabling class data sharing"},{"location":"shrc/#best-practices-for-using-xshareclasses","text":"The -Xshareclasses option is highly configurable, allowing you to specify where to create the cache, how much space to allocate for AOT code and more. You can also set the cache size by using the -Xscmx option. When shared classes is enabled, it is good practice to specify some of the cache behavior: Set an application-specific cache name ( -Xshareclasses:name=<name> ). If a cache with the specified name doesn't already exist, a new cache is created. This avoids sharing your application cache with a cache that is enabled by default or with another application that doesn't set a name, and ensures that the size of your application cache can be set appropriately and that cache space is used exclusively for your application. Note: You cannot change the size of a default cache that already exists by using the -Xscmx option, as that option has no effect on a pre-existing cache. Set a specific cache directory ( -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=<directory> ). Set a cache directory that is specific to your application, to avoid sharing the default cache directory with the default cache, or other application caches that don't set a cache directory. Your application will be unaffected by a user running java -Xshareclasses:destroyAll . In addition, if you have VMs from different Java installations, of the same Java release and installed by the same user, each VM checks whether the existing default shared cache in the cache directory is from the same Java installation as the VM. If not, the VM deletes that shared cache, then creates a new one. Specifying a different cache directory for each Java installation avoids this situation. Ensure that the cache directory permissions are set appropriately ( -Xshareclasses:cacheDirPerm ). It is good practice to explicitly set permissions for the cache directory when the defaults are not appropriate. Set the -Xshareclasses:nonfatal option. This option means that your application can start even if there is a problem opening or creating the shared cache, in which case, the VM might be able to start without class data sharing.","title":"Best practices for using -Xshareclasses"},{"location":"shrc/#support-for-custom-class-loaders","text":"Classes are shared by the bootstrap class loader internally in the OpenJ9 VM.

The dump viewer allows you to view both Java\u2122 and native information from the time the dump was produced. For long running tasks, the dump viewer can also be run in batch mode. The dump viewer is useful for diagnosing OutOfMemoryError exceptions in Java\u2122 applications. For problems like general protection faults (GPF), system abends, and SIGSEVs, a system debugger such as gdb (Linux) provides more information. Syntax Starting the dump viewer jdmpview (-core <core file> | -zip <zip file>) [-notemp] Input option Explanation -core <core file> Specifies a dump file. -zip <zip file> Specifies a compressed file containing the core file and associated XML file (produced by the dump extractor ( jextract ) tool on AIX\u00ae and Linux\u2122 systems). -notemp By default, when you specify a file by using the -zip option, the contents are extracted to a temporary directory before processing. Use the -notemp option to prevent this extraction step, and run all subsequent commands in memory. Note: The -core option can be used with the -zip option to specify the core and XML files in the compressed file. Without these options, jdmpview shows multiple contexts, one for each source file that it identified in the compressed file. On z/OS\u00ae, you can copy the dump to an HFS file and supply that as input to jdmpview , or you can supply a fully qualified MVS\u2122 data set name. For example: > jdmpview -core USER1.JVM.TDUMP.SSHD6.D070430.T092211 DTFJView version 4.28.3, using DTFJ version 1.11.28004 Loading image from DTFJ... MVS data set names may contain the dollar sign ($). Names that contain a dollar sign must be enclosed by single quotation marks ('). For example: > jdmpview -core 'USER1.JVM.$TDUMP.SSH$D7.D141211.T045506' After jdmpview processes the dump files, a session starts, showing this message: For a list of commands, type \"help\"; for how to use \"help\", type \"help help\" > If you run the jdmpview tool on a compressed file that contains multiple dumps, the tool detects and shows all the dump files, whether these are system dumps, Java dumps, or heap dumps. Because of this behavior, more than one context might be displayed when you start jdmpview . To switch context, type context <n> , where <n> is the context value for the dump you want to investigate. On z/OS, a system dump can contain multiple address spaces and an address space can contain multiple VM instances. In this case, the context allows you to select the address space and VM instance within the dump file. The following z/OS example shows address spaces ( ASID ), with two JVMs occupying address space 0x73 (context 5 and 6). The current context is 5 ( CTX:5> ), shown with an asterisk. To view the JVM in context 6, you can switch by specifying context 6 . CTX:5> context Available contexts (* = currently selected context) : 0 : ASID: 0x1 : No JRE : No JRE 1 : ASID: 0x3 : No JRE : No JRE 2 : ASID: 0x4 : No JRE : No JRE 3 : ASID: 0x6 : No JRE : No JRE 4 : ASID: 0x7 : No JRE : No JRE *5 : ASID: 0x73 EDB: 0x83d2053a0 : JRE 1.8.0 z/OS s390x-64 build 20181117_128845 (pmz6480-20181120_01) 6 : ASID: 0x73 EDB: 0x8004053a0 : JRE 1.8.0 z/OS s390x-64 build 20181117_128845 (pmz6480-20181120_01) 7 : ASID: 0x73 EDB: 0x4a7bd9e8 : No JRE 8 : ASID: 0xffff : No JRE : No JRE If you are using jdmpview to view Java dumps and heap dumps, some options do not produce any output. For example, a heap dump doesn't contain the information requested by the info system command, but does contain information requested by the info class command. If you are viewing a dump where there are a large number of objects on the heap, you can speed up the performance of jdmpview by ensuring that your system has enough memory available and does not need to page memory to disk. To achieve this, start jdmpview with a larger heap size by specifying the -Xmx option. Use the -J option to pass the -Xmx command line option to the JVM. For example: jdmpview -J-Xmx<n> -core <core file> The options available to the dump viewer session are shown under Session parameters Starting in batch mode For long running or routine jobs, jdmpview can be used in batch mode. You can run a single command without specifying a command file by appending the command to the end of the jdmpview command line. For example: jdmpview -core mycore.dmp info class When specifying jdmpview commands that accept a wildcard parameter, you must replace the wildcard symbol with ALL to prevent the shell interpreting the wildcard symbol. For example, in interactive mode, the command info thread * must be specified in the following way: jdmpview -core mycore.dmp info thread ALL Batch mode is controlled with the following command line options: Option Explanation -cmdfile <path to command file> A file that contains a series of jdmpview commands, which are read and run sequentially. -charset <character set name> The character set for the commands specified in -cmdfile (name must be a supported charset as defined in java.nio.charset.Charset. For example, US-ASCII) -outfile <path to output file> The file to record any output generated by commands. -overwrite If the file specified in -outfile exists, this option overwrites the file. -append If the file specified in -outfile exists, new output messages are appended to the end of that file. The -append and -overwrite options cannot be used at the same time. The command file can have empty lines that contain spaces, or comment lines that start with // or #. These lines are ignored by jdmpview. Example command file: // commands.txt info system info proc To run jdmpview in batch mode, using this command file, specify: jdmpview -outfile out.txt [-overwrite|-append] -cmdfile commands.txt -core <path to core file> When the output file exists, you need to specify either the -overwrite option or the -append option. If you do not, an error message is generated. Processing output You can redirect command output to a file, or pipe the command output to another command. To redirect jdmpview command output to a file, use one of the following formats: command > <target_file> If the target file exists, this redirection overwrites the content within it. command >> <target_file> If the target file exists, this redirection appends the output to it. Where <target_file> is the file name, which can include the full path to the file. To pipe jdmpview command output to another command, use the vertical bar (|) character. For example: command | grep string You can chain more than two commands together by using multiple vertical bar characters. The following commands can be used to interrogate the output: charsFrom charsTo grep tokens Using CharsFrom Use the charsFrom command after the vertical bar character to exclude all characters that come before a specified pattern in a resulting line. charsFrom <options> pattern Where <options> : -e or -exclude : Exclude the matched pattern from the resulting line. By default, the matched pattern is included in the resulting line. -keep : Keep lines that do not contain a match to the pattern. By default, lines that do not contain a match are excluded from the results. -i or -ignoreCase : Ignore case. For example, the following command displays resulting lines that contain the pattern jre , and trims each line to exclude all characters that come before this pattern: > info mod | charsFrom jre jre/lib/ppc64/libzip.so @ 0x0, sections: jre/lib/ppc64/libdbgwrapper80.so @ 0x0, sections: jre/lib/ppc64/libverify.so @ 0x0, sections: jre/lib/ppc64/libjava.so @ 0x0, sections: jre/lib/ppc64/compressedrefs/libjclse7b_28.so @ 0x0, sections: Using CharsTo Use the CharsTo command after the vertical bar character to include the characters in a resulting line until a specific pattern is found. charsTo <options> pattern Where <options> : -include : Include the matched pattern in the resulting line. By default, the matched pattern is excluded from the resulting line. -keep : Keep lines that do not contain a match to the pattern. By default, lines that do not contain a match are excluded from the results. -i or -ignoreCase : Ignore case. For example, the following command displays lines that contain the pattern \"@\", and trims each line to exclude all characters from \"@\" onwards: > info mod | charsTo @ bin/java /usr/lib64/gconv/UTF-16.so /test/sdk/lib/ppc64le/libnet.so /test/sdk/lib/ppc64le/libnio.so /test/sdk/lib/ppc64le/libzip.so /test/sdk/lib/ppc64le/libjsig.so libjsig.so You can also use charsFrom and charsTo together, separated by a vertical bar character. For example, the following command displays lines that contain the pattern \"lib\", and trims each line to exclude all characters that come before this pattern, as well as all characters from the pattern @ : > info mod | charsFrom lib | charsTo @ lib/ppc64le/libzip.so lib/ppc64le/libjsig.so lib/ppc64le/libverify.so lib/ppc64le/libjava.so lib/ppc64le/compressedrefs/libj9jit29.so Note: The line will not be displayed if the charsFrom and charsTo are used together, but only one of the patterns are matched in a line. Furthermore, the line will not be displayed if both patterns are matched in a line, but the charsTo pattern appears before, and not after, the charsFrom pattern. Using grep Use the grep command after the vertical bar character to show which lines match a specified pattern. grep <options> pattern Where <options> : -i : Ignore case. -r , -G , or --regex : Use a regular expression as defined in the Java documentation of the java.utils.regex.Pattern class. -b or --block : Show blocks of lines where at least one of the lines matches the pattern. Blocks of lines are separated by empty lines. -A <NUM> or +<NUM> : Show at most <NUM> lines after the matching line. For example grep -A 2 pattern or grep +2 pattern. -B <NUM> or -<NUM> : Show at most <NUM> lines before the matching line. -C <NUM> or +-<NUM> : Show at most <NUM> lines before and after the matching line. -v or --invert-match : Use with the grep command to show lines that do not match the pattern. These options are equivalent to the grep- command. -F or --fixed-strings : Do not treat the asterisk (*) as a wildcard character. Use these options with the -r , -G , or --regex options. Pattern rules: An asterisk (*) in a pattern is treated as a wildcard character unless you specify the -F or --fixed-strings options. If a pattern contains spaces, enclose the pattern in a pair of double quotation marks (\"). If a pattern contains double quotation marks, enclose the pattern in a pair of single quotation marks ('). You can specify multiple sub-patterns to match by using the following format, but only if you do not use the -r , -G , or --regex options: \"[pattern1|pattern2|...|patternN]\" The initial and trailing double quotation marks and brackets ([ ]) are required. Use a vertical bar character to separate the sub-patterns. Quotation marks and the vertical bar are not allowed in a sub-pattern. Spaces are allowed in the middle of a sub-pattern, but leading and trailing spaces will be trimmed. Use the grep command to show lines that do not match the pattern. For example, the following command displays the number of instances and total heap size for the java/lang/String class: > info class | grep java/lang/String 94 7688 [Ljava/lang/String; 1822 58304 java/lang/String 1 16 java/lang/String$CaseInsensitiveComparator 0 0 java/lang/String$UnsafeHelpers The following command uses two pipes in combination to display the number of instances and total heap size for the java/lang/StringCoding.StringDecoder class: > info class | grep java/lang/String | grep -i decoder 1 48 java/lang/StringCoding$StringDecoder Using tokens Use the tokens command after the vertical bar character to isolate specified tokens in the resulting lines. tokens [options] range[,range][..range] You can define range in the following formats: x x,y x..y A set of rules applies to these formats: x or y can be prefixed with \"-\". This means that x or y are counting backwards from the end of a list. For example, a y value of -1 represents the last token in a list, while -2 represents the penultimate token in a list. x must represent a token that either precedes or is at the same position as y. In this format, if x is omitted, it is assumed to be '1'. If y is omitted, it is assumed to be '-1'. For example, the following command displays the first and second token for each resulting line: > info mmap | grep -r ^0x | tokens 1,2 0x0000000000012fff 0x000000000000d000 0x0000000000017fff 0x0000000000004000 0x00000000009dafff 0x0000000000018000 0x00000000009fffff 0x000000000001f000 0x0000000000cbefff 0x0000000000002000 0x0000000000d76fff 0x0000000000001000 0x0000000003145fff 0x0000000000071000 0x0000000003b93fff 0x0000000000003000 Session parameters When jdmpview is started, many parameters can be used during the session to interrogate the system dump data, which are divided into general and expert parameters. The general parameters are documented in this section. To see a list of expert parameters, use the !j9help option. !j9help !j9help Lists all expert parameters that can be used in a session, with a brief description. cd cd <directory_name> Changes the working directory to <directory_name> . The working directory is used for log files. Logging is controlled by the set logging command. Use the pwd command to query the current working directory. cmdfile cmdfile <directory_name> Runs all of the commands in a file. The commands are read line by line and run sequentially. Empty lines, and lines that start with // or # , are ignored. Use the option charset to identify the character set that is used in the chosen file. The character set must be supported, as defined in java.nio.charset.Charset , such as US-ASCII . deadlock This command detects deadlock situations in the Java application that was running when the system dump was produced. Example output: deadlock loop: thread: Thread-2 (monitor object: 0x9e32c8) waiting for => thread: Thread-3 (monitor object: 0x9e3300) waiting for => thread: Thread-2 (monitor object: 0x9e32c8) In this example, the deadlock analysis shows that Thread-2 is waiting for a lock held by Thread-3 , which is in turn waiting for a lock held earlier by Thread-2 . Threads are identified by their Java thread name, whereas object monitors are identified by the address of the object in the Java heap. You can obtain further information about the threads using the info thread * command. You can obtain further information about the monitors using the x/J <0xaddr> command. find find <pattern>,<start_address>,<end_address>,<memory_boundary>, <bytes_to_print>,<matches_to_display> This command searches for <pattern> in the memory segment from <start_address> to <end_address> (both inclusive), and shows the number of matching addresses you specify with <matches_to_display> . You can also display the next <bytes_to_print> bytes for the last match. By default, the find command searches for the pattern at every byte in the range. If you know the pattern is aligned to a particular byte boundary, you can specify <memory_boundary> to search every <memory_boundary> bytes. For example, if you specify a <memory_boundary> of \"4\", the command searches for the pattern every 4 bytes. findnext findptr <pattern>,<start_address>,<end_address>,<memory_boundary>,<bytes_to_print>,<matches_to_display> Finds the next instance of the last string passed to find or findptr . It repeats the previous find or findptr command, depending on which one was issued last, starting from the last match. Searches memory for the given pointer. findptr searches for <pattern> as a pointer in the memory segment from <start_address> to <end_address> (both inclusive), and shows the number of matching addresses you specify with <matches_to_display> . You can also display the next <bytes_to_print> bytes for the last match. By default, the findptr command searches for the pattern at every byte in the range. If you know the pattern is aligned to a particular byte boundary, you can specify <memory_boundary> to search every <memory_boundary> bytes. For example, if you specify a <memory_boundary> of \"4\", the command searches for the pattern every 4 bytes. help help [<command_name>] Shows information for a specific command. If you supply no parameters, help shows the complete list of supported commands. history history|his [-r][<N>] Recalls and displays the history of commands that you have run. The default behavior is to display the 20 most recent commands. If you use the argument <N> , then N commands are displayed. For example, if you run history 35, then the 35 most recent commands are displayed. You can also use the -r option with <N> to run the Nth most recent command in your history. Using the -r option alone runs the most recent command in your history. info thread info thread [*|all|<native_thread_ID>|<zos_TCB_address>] Displays information about Java and native threads. The following information is displayed for all threads (\"*\"), or the specified thread: Thread id Registers Stack sections Thread frames: procedure name and base pointer Thread properties: list of native thread properties and their values. For example: thread priority. Associated Java thread, if applicable: Name of Java thread Address of associated java.lang.Thread object State (shown in JVMTI and java.lang.Thread.State formats) The monitor the thread is waiting for Thread frames: base pointer, method, and filename:line If you supply no parameters, the command shows information about the current thread. info system Displays the following information about the system that produced the core dump: Amount of memory Operating system Virtual machine or virtual machines present info class info class [<class_name>] [-sort:<name>|<count>|<size>] Displays the inheritance chain and other data for a given class. If a class name is passed to info class, the following information is shown about that class: - Name - ID - Superclass ID - Class loader ID - Modifiers - Number of instances and total size of instances - Inheritance chain - Fields with modifiers (and values for static fields) - Methods with modifiers If no parameters are passed to `info class`, the following information is shown: - The number of instances of each class. - The total size of all instances of each class. - The class name - The total number of instances of all classes. - The total size of all objects. The `sort` option allows the list of classes to be sorted by name (default), by number of instances of each class, or by the total size of instances of each class. info proc Displays threads, command-line arguments, environment variables, and shared modules of the current process. To view the shared modules used by a process, use the info sym command. info jitm Displays JIT compiled methods and their addresses: Method name and signature Method start address Method end address info lock Displays a list of available monitors and locked objects. info sym Displays a list of available modules. For each process in the address spaces, this command shows a list of module sections for each module, their start and end addresses, names, and sizes. info mmap info mmap [<address>] [-verbose] [-sort:<size>|<address>] Displays a summary list of memory sections in the process address space, with start and end address, size, and properties. If an address parameter is specified, the results show details of only the memory section containing the address. If -verbose is specified, full details of the properties of each memory section are displayed. The -sort option allows the list of memory sections to be sorted by size or by start address (default). info heap info heap [*|<heap_name>*] If no parameters are passed to this command, the heap names and heap sections are shown. Using either \"*\" or a heap name shows the following information about all heaps or the specified heap: Heap name (Heap size and occupancy) Heap sections Section name Section size Whether the section is shared Whether the section is executable Whether the section is read only heapdump heapdump [<heaps>] Generates a Java heap dump to a file. You can select which Java heaps to dump by listing the heap names, separated by spaces. To see which heaps are available, use the info heap command. By default, all Java heaps are dumped. hexdump hexdump <hex_address> <bytes_to_print> Displays a section of memory in a hexdump-like format. Displays <bytes_to_print> bytes of memory contents starting from <hex_address> . + Displays the next section of memory in hexdump-like format. This command is used with the hexdump command to enable easy scrolling forwards through memory. The previous hexdump command is repeated, starting from the end of the previous one. - Displays the previous section of memory in hexdump-like format. This command is used with the hexdump command to enable easy scrolling backwards through memory. The previous hexdump command is repeated, starting from a position before the previous one. pwd Displays the current working directory, which is the directory where log files are stored. quit Exits the core file viewing tool; any log files that are currently open are closed before exit. set heapdump Configures Heapdump generation settings. set heapdump <options> where <options> are: phd : Set the Heapdump format to Portable Heapdump, which is the default. txt : Set the Heapdump format to classic. file <file> : Set the destination of the Heapdump. multiplefiles [on|off] : If multiplefiles is set to on, each Java heap in the system dump is written to a separate file. If multiplefiles is set to off, all Java heaps are written to the same file. The default is off. set logging set logging <options> Configures logging settings, starts logging, or stops logging. This parameter enables the results of commands to be logged to a file, where <options> are: [on|off] : Turns logging on or off. (Default: off) file <filename> : Sets the file to log to. The path is relative to the directory returned by the pwd command, unless an absolute path is specified. If the file is set while logging is on, the change takes effect the next time logging is started. Not set by default. overwrite [on|off] : Turns overwriting of the specified log file on or off. When overwrite is off, log messages are appended to the log file. When overwrite is on, the log file is overwritten after the set logging command. (Default: off) redirect [on|off] : Turns redirecting to file on or off, with off being the default. When logging is set to on: A value of on for redirect sends non-error output only to the log file. A value of off for redirect sends non-error output to the console and log file. Redirect must be turned off before logging can be turned off. (Default: off) show heapdump Displays the current Heapdump generation settings. show logging Displays the current logging settings: set_logging = [on|off] set_logging_file = set_logging_overwrite = [on|off] set_logging_redirect = [on|off] current_logging_file = The file that is currently being logged to might be different from set_logging_file, if that value was changed after logging was started. whatis <hex_address> Displays information about whatis stored at the given memory address, <hex_address> . This command examines the memory location at <hex_address> and tries to find out more information about this address. For example: > whatis 0x8e76a8 heap #1 - name: Default@19fce8 0x8e76a8 is within heap segment: 8b0000 -- cb0000 0x8e76a8 is start of an object of type java/lang/Thread x/ (examine) Passes the number of items to display and the unit size, as listed in the following table, to the sub-command. For example, x/12bd . Abbreviation Unit Size b Byte 8-bit h Half word 16-bit w Word 32-bit g Giant word 64-bit This command is similar to the use of the x/ command in gdb, including the use of defaults. x/J [ <class_name> | <0xaddr> ] Displays information about a particular object, or all objects of a class. If <class_name> is supplied, all static fields with their values are shown, followed by all objects of that class with their fields and values. If an object address (in hex) is supplied, static fields for that object's class are not shown; the other fields and values of that object are printed along with its address. Note: This command ignores the number of items and unit size passed to it by the x/ command. x/D < 0xaddr > Displays the integer at the specified address, adjusted for the hardware architecture this dump file is from. For example, the file might be from a big endian architecture. This command uses the number of items and unit size passed to it by the x/ command. x/X < 0xaddr > Displays the hex value of the bytes at the specified address, adjusted for the hardware architecture this dump file is from. For example, the file might be from a big endian architecture. Note: This command uses the number of items and unit size passed to it by the x/ command. x/K < 0xaddr > Where the size is defined by the pointer size of the architecture, this parameter shows the value of each section of memory. The output is adjusted for the hardware architecture this dump file is from, starting at the specified address. It also displays a module with a module section and an offset from the start of that module section in memory if the pointer points to that module section. If no symbol is found, it displays a \"*\" and an offset from the current address if the pointer points to an address in 4KB (4096 bytes) of the current address. Although this command can work on an arbitrary section of memory, it is probably more useful on a section of memory that refers to a stack frame. To find the memory section of a thread stack frame, use the info thread command. Note: This command uses the number of items and unit size passed to it by the x/ command.

Use the -notemp option to prevent this extraction step, and run all subsequent commands in memory.

For example, a heap dump doesn't contain the information requested by the info system command, but does contain information requested by the info class command. If you are viewing a dump where there are a large number of objects on the heap, you can speed up the performance of jdmpview by ensuring that your system has enough memory available and does not need to page memory to disk. To achieve this, start jdmpview with a larger heap size by specifying the -Xmx option. Use the -J option to pass the -Xmx command line option to the JVM.

The formatter requires the TraceFormat.dat and J9TraceFormat.dat files, which contain the formatting templates. The formatter produces a file that contains header information about the VM that produced the binary trace file, a list of threads for which trace points were produced, and the formatted trace points with their time stamp, thread ID, trace point ID, and trace point data. Syntax To use the trace formatter on a binary trace file type: traceformat <input_file> [<output_file>] <parameters> Where <input_file> is the name of the binary trace file to be formatted, and <output_file> is the name of the output file. If you do not specify an output file, the output file is called input_file.fmt . The size of the heap that is needed to format the trace is directly proportional to the number of threads present in the trace file. For large numbers of threads the formatter might run out of memory, generating the error OutOfMemoryError . In this case, increase the heap size by using the -Xmx option. Parameters The following <parameters> are available with the trace formatter: Option Explanation -datfile=<file1.dat>[,<file2.dat>] A comma-separated list of trace formatting data files. By default, the following files are used:$JAVA_HOME/lib/J9TraceFormat.dat and $JAVA_HOME/lib/TraceFormat.dat -format_time=yes|no Specifies whether to format the time stamps into human readable form.

OpenSSL is now supported for improved native cryptographic performance Changes to the location of the default shared cache and cache snapshot directory New class data sharing suboptions Container awareness in the OpenJ9 VM is now enabled by default Pause-less garbage collection mode is now available on Linux x86 platforms You can now restrict identity hash codes to non-negative values Support for OpenJDK HotSpot options Features and changes Binaries and supported environments OpenJ9 release 0.11.0 provides limited support for the macOS\u00ae platform on OpenJDK 11. Early builds of OpenJDK 11 with OpenJ9 on macOS are available at the AdoptOpenJDK project at the following link: OpenJDK version 11 Support for macOS on OpenJDK 8 is coming soon. To learn more about support for OpenJ9 releases, including OpenJDK levels and platform support, see Supported environments OpenSSL is now supported for improved native cryptographic performance OpenSSL is a native open source cryptographic toolkit for Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols, which provides improved cryptographic performance compared to the in-built OpenJDK Java cryptographic implementation. The OpenSSL V1.1.x implementation is enabled by default and supported for the Digest, CBC, and GCM algorithms. Binaries obtained from AdoptOpenJDK include OpenSSL v1.1.x (see Note). For more information about tuning the OpenSSL implementation, see Performance tuning . Note: Currently, OpenSSL is not bundled as part of the AdoptOpenJDK AIX binary due to an unresolved problem. Changes to the location of the default shared cache and cache snapshot directory To increase security, the default shared classes cache directory is changed on non-Windows platforms from /tmp/javasharedresources/ to the user's home directory, unless you specify -Xshareclasses:groupAccess . If you use the groupAccess suboption, the default directory is unchanged because some members of the group might not have access to the user home directory. Note: For persistent caches, the shared classes cache directory cannot be on an NFS mount. If your user home directory is on an NFS mount, either move it or use the -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=<directory> suboption to specify a different directory for the cache. In general, caches cannot be shared across different Java releases, so you cannot re-use a cache that was created by a previous level of Java 11; if you use the name and cacheDir suboptions to specify an existing cache, the VM attempts to delete the cache and create a new one. However, on Windows, the cache cannot be deleted if it is in use, in which case the VM continues to use the existing cache. You can find and remove old caches or snapshots by using the following command-line options: For persistent caches: - -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=/tmp/javasharedresources/,listAllCaches to find the cache - -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=/tmp/javasharedresources/,name=<cacheName>,destroy to remove the cache For nonpersistent caches or snapshots: - -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=/tmp,listAllCaches to find the item - -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=/tmp,name=<snapshotName>,destroySnapshot to remove the item New class data sharing suboptions -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly : disables caching of classes that are loaded by non-bootstrap class loaders. This suboption also enables the nonfatal suboption, which allows the VM to start even if there was an error creating the shared classes cache. -Xshareclasses:fatal : prevents the VM from starting if there was an error creating the shared classes cache. You might want to enable this suboption when using the -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly suboption, to troubleshoot problems when creating the cache. Container awareness in the OpenJ9 VM is now enabled by default When using container technology, applications are typically run on their own and do not need to compete for memory. If the VM detects that it is running in a container environment, and a memory limit for the container is set, the VM automatically adjusts the maximum default Java heap size. In earlier releases, this behavior was enabled by setting the -XX:+UseContainerSupport option. This setting is now the default. For more information about the Java heap size set for a container, see -XX:[+|-]UseContainerSupport . Pause-less garbage collection mode is now available on Linux x86 platforms Pause-less garbage collection mode is aimed at large heap, response-time sensitive applications. When enabled, the VM attempts to reduce GC pause times. In earlier releases, pause-less garbage collection mode ( -Xgc:concurrentScavenge ) was available only on IBM z14 hardware. This mode is now available on 64-bit x86 Linux platforms. Restrictions: The Generational Concurrent ( gencon ) garbage collection policy must be used. (This is the default policy.) Compressed references must be used. See -Xcompressedrefs . Compressed references are enabled by default when the maximum heap size ( -Xmx ) \u2264 57 GB. The concurrent scavenge option is ignored if the maximum heap size is > 57 GB.

If your user home directory is on an NFS mount, either move it or use the -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=<directory> suboption to specify a different directory for the cache. In general, caches cannot be shared across different Java releases, so you cannot re-use a cache that was created by a previous level of Java 11; if you use the name and cacheDir suboptions to specify an existing cache, the VM attempts to delete the cache and create a new one. However, on Windows, the cache cannot be deleted if it is in use, in which case the VM continues to use the existing cache.

For more information about the issue, see #4530 . You can turn off the Digest algorithm by setting the -Djdk.nativeDigest system property to false . A new release of OpenJ9 (0.12.1) is available that disables the Digest algorithm by default. Features and changes Binaries and supported environments OpenJ9 release 0.12.0 provides support for OpenJDK 8 with OpenJ9 and OpenJDK 11 with OpenJ9 . In this release support is extended to the 64-bit macOS\u00ae platform on OpenJDK with OpenJ9. Builds for all platforms are available from the AdoptOpenJDK project at the following links: OpenJDK 8 with OpenJ9 OpenJDK 11 with OpenJ9 To learn more about support for OpenJ9 releases, including OpenJDK levels and platform support, see Supported environments . Improved flexibility for managing the size of the JIT code cache The JIT code cache stores the native code of compiled Java\u2122 methods. By default, the size of the code cache is 256 MB for a 64-bit VM and 64 MB for a 31/32-bit VM. In earlier releases the size of the code cache could be increased from the default value by using the -Xcodecachetotal command line option. In this release the size can also be decreased by using this option, with a minimum size of 2 MB. The size of the JIT code cache also affects the size of the JIT data cache, which holds metadata about compiled methods. If you use the -Xcodecachetotal option to manage the size of the code cache, the size of the data cache is adjusted by the same proportion. For more information, see -Xcodecachetotal . Idle-tuning is enabled by default when OpenJ9 runs in a docker container In an earlier release, a set of idle-tuning options were introduced to manage the footprint of the Java heap when the OpenJ9 VM is in an idle state. These options could be set manually on the command line. In this release, the following two options are enabled by default when OpenJ9 is running in a container: -XX:[+|-]IdleTuningGcOnIdle , which runs a garbage collection cycle and releases free memory pages back to the operating system when the VM state is set to idle. -XX:[+|-]IdleTuningCompactOnIdle , which compacts the object heap to reduce fragmentation when the VM state is set to idle. By default, the VM must be idle for 180 seconds before the status is set to idle. To control the wait time before an idle state is set, use the -XX:IdleTuningMinIdleWaitTime option. To turn off idle detection, set the value to 0 . Changes to default shared classes cache directory permissions (not Windows) If you do not use the cachDirPerm suboption to specify permissions for a shared classes cache directory, and the cache directory is not the /tmp/javasharedresources default, the following changes apply: When creating a new cache directory, the default permissions are now stricter. If the cache directory already exists, permissions are now unchanged (previously, when a cache was opened using this directory, the permissions would be set to 0777). For more information, see -Xshareclasses . OpenSSL is now supported for improved native cryptographic performance OpenSSL is a native open source cryptographic toolkit for Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols, which provides improved cryptographic performance compared to the in-built OpenJDK Java cryptographic implementation. The OpenSSL V1.1.x implementation is enabled by default and supported for the Digest, CBC, and GCM algorithms. Binaries obtained from AdoptOpenJDK include OpenSSL v1.1.x (see Note). For more information about tuning the OpenSSL implementation, see Performance tuning . Note: OpenJDK 8 with OpenJ9 includes OpenSSL support since V0.11.0. Currently, OpenSSL is not bundled as part of the AdoptOpenJDK AIX binaries due to an unresolved problem. Improved support for pause-less garbage collection Concurrent scavenge mode is now supported on 64-bit Windows operating systems. In Eclipse OpenJ9 V0.11.0, support was added for -Xgc:concurrentScavenge on Linux x86-64 virtual machines that use compressed references. In this release, support is now available for Linux x86-64 large-heap virtual machines (non-compressed references). For more information, see the -Xgc:concurrentScavenge option. RSA algorithm support for OpenSSL OpenSSL v1.1 support for the RSA algorithm is added in this release, providing improved cryptographic performance. OpenSSL support is enabled by default. If you want to turn off support for the RSA algorithm, set the -Djdk.nativeRSA system property to false . IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS is deprecated The VM environment variable IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS is deprecated and is replaced by OPENJ9_JAVA_OPTIONS . IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS will be removed in a future release.

To learn more about support for OpenJ9 releases, including OpenJDK levels and platform support, see Supported environments . Performance improvements for JVMTI watched fields OpenJ9 version 0.14.0 introduced the -XX:[+|-]JITInlineWatches option, which, when enabled, turned on experimental JIT operations to improve the performance of JVMTI watched fields. Following successful results, this option is now enabled by default. This option is now also supported on z/OS\u00ae and Linux for IBM Z\u00ae, in addition to x86 platforms (Windows\u00ae, macOS\u00ae, and Linux). Support for pause-less garbage collection on IBM Z systems Support for Concurrent scavenge mode is now extended to Linux on IBM Z\u00ae systems and z/OS\u00ae. For more information, see -Xgc:concurrentScavenge . ChaCha20 algorithm support for OpenSSL The ChaCha20 and ChaCha20-Poly1305 algorithms can now use OpenSSL on Java 11. For more information, see -Djdk.nativeChaCha20 . OpenSSL Digest algorithm disabled Due to issue #5611 , the Digest algorithm is disabled. This algorithm was disabled for Java 8 and 11 in release 0.14.2, which did not support Java 12. Support for OpenJDK HotSpot options For compatibility, the -XX:OnOutOfMemoryError OpenJDK Hotspot option is now supported by OpenJ9. Support for Transparent Huge Pages (THP) The VM now supports the allocation of huge pages on Linux when you use the madvise ( /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled ) setting. To enable this feature, set -XX:+TransparentHugePage on the command line when you start your application. This option is currently not enabled by default. Support for low-overhead heap profiling JEP 331 provides a mechanism for sampling Java heap allocations with a low overhead via the JVM Tool Interface (JVMTI). Restrictions: JEP 331 is implemented for OpenJ9 with the following limitations: The balanced and metronome garbage collection policies are not supported. The JEP331 JVMTI agent and the Health Center agent both set a sampling interval, which by default is different. If both agents are used at the same time the Health Center agent will get incorrect results, unless the sampling intervals are adjusted to use the same value. New Java memory map tool The Java memory map (jmap) tool is similar to the HotSpot tool of the same name, and can be used to print statistics about classes on the heap, including the number of objects and their aggregate size. For usage information, see Java memory map (jmap) tool . Automatically setting an initial heap size OpenJ9 can now learn and set an appropriate initial heap size for an application as an alternative to a user manually sizing and setting an -Xms value. The VM records the size of the heap when startup processing ends, writing this data to the shared classes cache. An average value is set over a few restarts, helping to ensure that the value used for the initial heap size is as accurate as possible. The heap size recorded is specific to the application command line, therefore a different hint is stored for every unique command line. To turn on this behavior, set the -XX:+UseGCStartupHints option on the command line when you start your application. Removal of -Xdiagnosticscollector option This option was redundant and has now been removed. If you try to use this option on the command line, the VM outputs this error message: JVMJ9VM007E Command-line option unrecognised: -Xdiagnosticscollector Change in behaviour of -XX:IdleTuningCompactOnIdle -XX:[+|-]IdleTuningCompactOnIdle is now no longer effective when -XX:+IdleTuningGcOnIdle is not specified. Heuristics for compaction during idle GC OpenJ9 now automatically compacts the heap when certain triggers are met during idle garbage collection (GC). As a result of this change, -XX:[+|-]IdleTuningCompactOnIdle is deprecated. Change in shared classes behavior for checking timestamps of jar or zip files In earlier releases, the shared classes cache checks timestamps of jar or zip files every time a class is loaded and reloads a class if the timestamp has changed. This behavior is now changed; timestamps are checked only when zip or jar files are added to class loaders and used for the first time to look for a class, which can improve class-loading performance. If jar or zip files are updated after a class loader starts loading classes from them, an older version of the class might be loaded from the shared classes cache. To revert to the behavior of earlier releases, set the -Xshareclasses:checkURLTimestamps option on the command line when you start your application. Note: Multiple -Xshareclasses: options are not combined, only the last one is used.

The latest builds of OpenJDK with OpenJ9 for Java 8 and 11 at the AdoptOpenJDK community are for Eclipse OpenJ9 release 0.15.2. Features mentioned in these release notes are not available in these builds. Although it might be possible to build an OpenJDK 8 or OpenJDK 11 with OpenJ9 0.16.0, testing at the project is not complete and therefore support for any of these features is not available. To learn more about support for OpenJ9 releases, including OpenJDK levels and platform support, see Supported environments . Some class data sharing is enabled by default Class data sharing is enabled by default for bootstrap classes, unless your application is running in a container. You can use the -Xshareclasses option to change the default behavior, including using -Xshareclasses:none to disable all class data sharing. For more information, see Class data sharing . Automatic setting of initial heap size is enabled by default OpenJ9 version 0.15.1 introduced the -XX:[+|-]UseGCStartupHints option, which, when enabled, turned on the automatic learning and setting of an appropriate heap size for an application. This option is now enabled by default. Option to share VM anonymous classes Prior to version 0.16.0, anonymous classes, those created by Unsafe.defineAnonymousClass , were not stored in the shared classes cache. They are now stored there by default, which means they are available for ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation, potentially improving startup performance. A new command, -XX:[+|-]ShareAnonymousClasses , is introduced that enables you to stop anonymous classes being stored in the shared classes cache. Performance improvements for JVMTI watched fields on Power Systems OpenJ9 version 0.14.0 introduced the -XX:[+|-]JITInlineWatches option, which turns on JIT operations to improve the performance of JVMTI watched fields. This option, which was enabled by default in version 0.15.1, is now also supported on AIX\u00ae and Linux on Power Systems\u2122. Linux\u00ae on x86: Support for Transparent Huge Pages (THP) When you use the madvise ( /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled ) setting on Linux on x86 systems, THP is now enabled by default. To disable this feature, set -XX:-TransparentHugePage on the command line when you start your application. The THP setting on other systems remains disabled by default when you use madvise , but can be enabled by setting -XX:+TransparentHugePage . New jcmd tool For compatibility with the reference implementation, OpenJ9 now includes an independent implementation of the jcmd tool for running diagnostic commands on a VM. For more information, see Java diagnostic command tool . Changes to the shared classes cache generation number The format of classes that are stored in the shared classes cache is changed, which causes the JVM to create a new shared classes cache rather than re-creating or reusing an existing cache. To save space, you can remove all existing shared caches unless they are in use by an earlier release. As a result of the format change, a layer column now appears in the output of the -Xshareclasses:listAllCaches option. This change is to support a future enhancement. For more information about the -Xshareclasses option, including the destroy options that you can use to remove caches, see -Xshareclasses . The -Xverify:none and -noverify options are deprecated The option -Xverify:none (and its equivalent -noverify ) is deprecated in Java 13. Both options might be removed in a future release.

Features and changes Binaries and supported platforms The following additional OpenJDK binaries that contain the OpenJ9 VM are now available from the AdoptOpenJDK community: OpenJDK version 10 OpenJDK version 8 for 32-bit Windows OpenJDK version 8 for x86 64-bit Linux (Large Heap) for Java heaps >57 GB. Complete platform support information for OpenJ9 can be found in Supported environments Idle tuning feature The idle tuning feature in OpenJ9 keeps your memory footprint small by releasing unused memory back to the operating system. Prior to Eclipse v0.9.0 this feature was available only on Linux x86 architectures with the gencon garbage collection policy. From v0.9.0, this feature is now available on Linux for IBM POWER\u00ae and IBM Z\u00ae architectures. For more information about this feature, see the following command line options, which control this behavior: -XX:[+|-]IdleTuningCompactOnIdle -XX:[+|-]IdleTuningGcOnIdle -XX:IdleTuningMinIdleWaitTime -XX:IdleTuningMinFreeHeapOnIdle The following blog post describes the benefits of using this feature: Are you still paying for unused memory when your Java app is idle? New GC policy A new GC policy is introduced for JEP 318: Epsilon: A No-Op Garbage Collector . When this policy is enabled, the Java object heap is expanded in the normal way until the limit is reached, but memory is not reclaimed through garbage collection. When the limit is reached the VM shuts down. This JEP has a number of use cases including short-lived applications and certain test scenarios. To enable this policy you can use one of the following options: -Xgcpolicy:nogc -XX:+UseNoGC Modifying the default Java heap size for applications that run in containers When using container technology, applications are typically run on their own and do not need to compete for memory. In this release, changes are introduced to detect when OpenJ9 is running inside a container. If your application is running in a container and you want the VM to allocate a larger fraction of memory to the Java heap, set the -XX:+UseContainerSupport option on the command line. The following table shows the maximum Java heap size that gets set, depending on the memory available: Physical memory <size> Maximum Java heap size Less than 1 GB 50% <size> 1 GB - 2 GB <size> - 512M Greater than 2 GB 75% <size> The default heap size for containers only takes affect when running in a container environment and when -XX:+UseContainerSupport is specified, which is expected to be the default in a future release. Specifying the maximum Java heap size as a percentage value OpenJ9 now supports setting the heap size as a percentage of the physical memory. The following OpenJDK options are recognized and can be set for the VM: -XX:MaxRAMPercentage -XX:InitialRAMPercentage To understand how to set these options, see -XX:InitialRAMPercentage / -XX:MaxRAMPercentage . If your application is running in a container and you have specified -XX:+UseContainerSupport , as described in Modifying the default Java heap size for applications that run in containers , both the default heap size for containers and the -XX:MaxRAMPercentage and -XX:InitialRAMPercentage options are based on the available container memory. Shared classes support for nested jar files Changes are made to the com.ibm.oti.shared API to support nested jar files. Direct Dump Reader enabled on Linux and Windows Direct Dump Reader (DDR) support is now enabled for the OpenJ9 VM on all Linux architectures and on Windows. The DDR code enables the VM to read system dump data by using the OpenJ9 Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java (DTFJ) API or the jdmpview tool. If you use the Eclipse Memory Analyzer Tool (MAT) , you can also analyze OpenJ9 or IBM VMs by installing the DTFJ plugin. (Install from the Eclipse Help menu; Install New Software > Work with \"IBM Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java\" > IBM Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools > Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java) You must use a 32-bit JVM to look at a 32-bit core, and a 64-bit JVM to look at a 64-bit core. This restriction will be fixed in a later version of OpenJ9. Changes to the java.lang.String class To match the behavior of OpenJDK, java.lang.String no longer has a count field, which changes the way that String.subString() works compared to Java 8. String.subString() now copies the value array. Similarly, StringBuffer and StringBuilder do not share the value array with any String created by toString() . For performance and compatibility with the new String object layout, the OpenJ9 implementations of StringBuffer and StringBuilder have been deprecated in favor of the OpenJDK implementations. Changes to the SharedClassCacheInfo class SharedClassCacheInfo.getCacheJVMLevel() used to return the JVMLEVEL constant that maps to a Java version number, for example JVMLEVEL_JAVA8 . This call now returns only the Java version number, for example 10 for Java 10.

AOT compilation allows the compilation of Java\u2122 classes into native code for subsequent executions of the same program. The AOT compiler works with the class data sharing framework. The AOT compiler generates native code dynamically while an application runs and caches any generated AOT code in the shared data cache. Subsequent VMs that execute the method can load and use the AOT code from the shared data cache without incurring the performance decrease experienced with JIT-compiled native code. Performance Because AOT code must persist over different program executions, AOT-generated code does not perform as well as JIT-generated code. AOT code usually performs better than interpreted code. In a VM without an AOT compiler or with the AOT compiler disabled, the JIT compiler selectively compiles frequently used methods into optimized native code. There is a time cost associated with compiling methods because the JIT compiler operates while the application is running. Because methods begin by being interpreted and most JIT compilations occur during startup, startup times can be increased. Startup performance can be improved by using the shared AOT code to provide native code without compiling. There is a small time cost to load the AOT code for a method from the shared data cache and bind it into a running program. The time cost is low compared to the time it takes the JIT compiler to compile that method. Default behavior The AOT compiler is enabled by default, but is only active when shared classes are enabled. By default, shared classes are disabled so that no AOT activity occurs.

If a Language Environment condition is triggered in JNI code as a result of an arithmetic operation, the VM condition handler resumes executing Java code as if the JNI native code had thrown a com.ibm.le.conditionhandling.ConditionException exception. This exception class is a subclass of java.lang.RuntimeException . Note: The Language Environment conditions that correspond to arithmetic operations are CEE3208S through CEE3234S . However, the Language Environment does not deliver conditions CEE3208S , CEE3213S , or CEE3234S to C applications, so the VM condition handler will not receive them. If the condition handling reaches this step, the condition is considered to be unrecoverable. RAS diagnostic information is generated, and the VM ends by calling the CEE3AB2() service with abend code 3565, reason code 0, and cleanup code 0.

By default, no checks are made. There are many scan, verify, and miscellaneous suboptions available. If you do not specify any, all possible scan and verify suboptions are run, plus the miscellaneous verbose and check suboptions. For more information, see the output of -Xcheck:gc:help . jni -Xcheck:jni[:help][:<option>] Runs additional checks for JNI functions. By default, no checks are made. For more information, see the output of -Xcheck:jni:help . memory -Xcheck:memory[:<option>] Identifies memory leaks inside the VM by using strict checks that cause the VM to exit on failure. Restriction: You cannot include -Xcheck:memory in the options file (see -Xoptionsfile ). The available parameters are as follows: :all (Default if no options specified) Enables checking of all allocated and freed blocks on every free and allocate call. This check of the heap is the most thorough. It typically causes the VM to exit on nearly all memory-related problems soon after they are caused. This option has the greatest affect on performance. :callsite=<number_of_allocations> Displays callsite information every <number_of_allocations> . De-allocations are not counted. Callsite information is presented in a table with separate information for each callsite. Statistics include: The number and size of allocation and free requests since the last report. The number of the allocation request responsible for the largest allocation from each site. Callsites are presented as sourcefile:linenumber for C code and assembly function name for assembler code. Callsites that do not provide callsite information are accumulated into an \"unknown\" entry. :failat=<number_of_allocations> Causes memory allocation to fail (return NULL) after <number_of_allocations> . For example, setting <number_of_allocations> to 13 causes the 14th allocation to return NULL. De-allocations are not counted. Use this option to ensure that VM code reliably handles allocation failures. This option is useful for checking allocation site behavior rather than setting a specific allocation limit. :ignoreUnknownBlocks Ignores attempts to free memory that was not allocated using the -Xcheck:memory tool. Instead, the -Xcheck:memory statistics that are printed out at the end of a run indicates the number of \"unknown\" blocks that were freed. :mprotect=[top|bottom] Locks pages of memory on supported platforms, causing the program to stop if padding before or after the allocated block is accessed for reads or writes. An extra page is locked on each side of the block returned to the user. If you do not request an exact multiple of one page of memory, a region on one side of your memory is not locked. The top and bottom options control which side of the memory area is locked. top aligns your memory blocks to the top of the page (lower address), so buffer underruns result in an application failure. bottom aligns your memory blocks to the bottom of the page (higher address) so buffer overruns result in an application failure. Standard padding scans detect buffer underruns when using top and buffer overruns when using bottom . :nofree Keeps a list of blocks that are already used instead of freeing memory. This list, and the list of currently allocated blocks, is checked for memory corruption on every allocation and deallocation. Use this option to detect a dangling pointer (a pointer that is \"dereferenced\" after its target memory is freed). This option cannot be reliably used with long-running applications (such as WebSphere\u00ae Application Server), because \"freed\" memory is never reused or released by the VM. :noscan Checks for blocks that are not freed. This option has little effect on performance, but memory corruption is not detected. This option is compatible only with subAllocator , callsite , and callsitesmall . :quick Enables block padding only and is used to detect basic heap corruption. Every allocated block is padded with sentinel bytes, which are verified on every allocate and free. Block padding is faster than the default of checking every block, but is not as effective. :skipto=<number_of_allocations> Causes the program to check only on allocations that occur after <number_of_allocations> . De-allocations are not counted. Use this option to speed up VM startup when early allocations are not causing the memory problem. The VM performs approximately 250+ allocations during startup. :subAllocator[=<size_in_MB>] Allocates a dedicated and contiguous region of memory for all VM allocations. This option helps to determine if user JNI code or the VM is responsible for memory corruption. Corruption in the VM subAllocator heap suggests that the VM is causing the problem; corruption in the user-allocated memory suggests that user code is corrupting memory. Typically, user and VM allocated memory are interleaved. :zero Newly allocated blocks are set to 0 instead of being filled with the 0xE7E7xxxxxxxxE7E7 pattern. Setting these blocks to 0 helps you to determine whether a callsite is expecting zeroed memory, in which case the allocation request is followed by memset(pointer, 0, size) . vm -Xcheck:vm[:<option>] Performs additional checks on the VM.

The dumps produced are controlled by dump agents, which are initialized when the OpenJ9 virtual machine (VM) starts. The default settings for the dump agents are sufficient for most cases. However, you can use the -Xdump option on the command line to fine tune the dump agent settings. For example, you can use the -Xdump option to add and remove dump agents for various VM events, update default dump settings, and limit the number of dumps that are produced. A large set of options and suboptions are available for controlling dumps, which provides a lot of flexibility. Xdump Option Builder Use the Xdump Option Builder tool to help you specify the correct options and avoid incompatibilities. Syntax -Xdump:<parameter> The following table lists the help options for -Xdump , which provide usage and configuration information: Command Result -Xdump:help Displays general dump help. -Xdump:events Lists available trigger events. -Xdump:request Lists additional VM requests. -Xdump:tokens Lists recognized label tokens. -Xdump:what Shows registered agents on startup. -Xdump:<agent>:help Displays dump agent usage information. The following options can be used to control the production of diagnostic data: Parameter Result -Xdump:none Removes all default dump agents and any preceding dump options. -Xdump:dynamic Enable support for pluggable agents -Xdump:nofailover Discards dumps when the default or specified dump location is full. -Xdump:directory=<path> Specifies a directory for all dump types to be written to. This directory path is prefixed to the path of all non-absolute dump file names, including the file names for the default dump agents. -Xdump:suspendwith=<offset> Modifies the signal that is used to suspend VM threads while a dump file is being written. Use <offset> to change the default signal number. (Linux\u00ae only) -Xdump:<agent>:<suboptions> Provides detailed suboptions per dump agent that provide more granular control. Dump agents can be configured at a very granular level by specifying suboptions. The <events> suboption is the prime trigger mechanism. The full set of suboptions are listed in the following table: Dump agent suboptions Result -Xdump:<agent>:none Removes the dump agent. -Xdump:<agent>:defaults Prints the default options for the dump agent. -Xdump:<agent>:events=<events> Triggers a dump agent when a specific event occurs. -Xdump:<agent>:exec=<command> Starts an external application for the dump agent. -Xdump:<agent>:file=<filename> Specifies where to write the dump for the dump agent. -Xdump:<agent>:filter=<filter> Filters dumps by wildcards or events. -Xdump:<agent>:msg_filter=<filter> Filters on text strings within an exception message. -Xdump:<agent>:opts=<options> Used by specific dump agents to select the type of dump file to produce. -Xdump:<agent>:priority=<0-999> Specifies the priority that the dump agents run in. -Xdump:<agent>:range=<ranges> Starts and stops a dump agent on a particular occurrence of a VM. -Xdump:<agent>:request=<requests> Asks the VM to prepare the state before starting the dump agent. You can have multiple -Xdump options on the command line. You can also have multiple dump types triggered by multiple events. For example, the following command turns off the creation of heap dump files, and creates a dump agent that produces a heap dump file and a Java\u2122 dump file when either a vmstart or vmstop event occurs: java -Xdump:heap:none -Xdump:heap+java:events=vmstart+vmstop -mp . -m <class> [args...] Note: Multiple suboptions that follow an Xdump suboption must be split with a comma (,), for example: java -Xdump:java:events=vmstart,file=/STDERR/ -version For more detailed information on the these parameters and suboptions, including examples, see Parameters . Dump agents A dump agent performs diagnostic tasks when triggered. Most dump agents save information on the state of the VM in some form of dump or trace file for later analysis. An exception is the \"tool\" agent, which can be used to trigger external processes when specific events occur. Dump agent Description stack Stack dumps are very basic dumps in which the status and Java stack of the thread is written to stderr. console Console dumps are very basic dumps, in which the status of every Java thread is written to stderr. system System dumps capture the raw process image or address space of an application. tool The tool option allows external processes to be started when an event occurs. java Java dumps are an internally generated and formatted analysis of the VM, giving information that includes the Java threads present, the classes loaded, and heap statistics. heap Heap dumps capture all object instances in the heap, including each object address, type or class name, size, and references to other objects. snap Take a snap of the trace buffers, which contain tracepoint data. ceedump LE CEEDUMP dumps are z/OS\u00ae formatted summary system dumps that show stack traces for each thread that is in the VM process, together with register information and a short dump of storage for each register. jit JIT compiler dumps contain diagnostic data in a binary format. Default dump agents During VM initialization a set of dump agents are added by default. You can override this set of dump agents using -Xdump on the command line. To show the registered dump agents, user the Xdump:what option on the command line. The following sample output shows the default dump agents that are in place on a Linux system: java -Xdump:what Registered dump agents ---------------------- -Xdump:system: events=gpf+abort+traceassert+corruptcache, label=/home/user/core.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.dmp, range=1..0, priority=999, request=serial ---------------------- -Xdump:system: events=systhrow, filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError, label=/home/user/core.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.dmp, range=1..1, priority=999, request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk ---------------------- -Xdump:heap: events=systhrow, filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError, label=/home/user/heapdump.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.phd, range=1..4, priority=500, request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk, opts=PHD ---------------------- -Xdump:java: events=gpf+user+abort+traceassert+corruptcache, label=/home/user/javacore.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.txt, range=1..0, priority=400, request=exclusive+preempt ---------------------- -Xdump:java: events=systhrow, filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError, label=/home/user/javacore.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.txt, range=1..4, priority=400, request=exclusive+preempt ---------------------- -Xdump:snap: events=gpf+abort+traceassert+corruptcache, label=/home/user/Snap.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.trc, range=1..0, priority=300, request=serial ---------------------- -Xdump:snap: events=systhrow, filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError, label=/home/user/Snap.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.trc, range=1..4, priority=300, request=serial ---------------------- -Xdump:jit: events=gpf+abort, label=/home/user/jitdump.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.dmp, range=1..0, priority=200, request=serial ---------------------- Dump agent tokens You can use tokens to add context to dump file names and directories, and to pass command-line arguments to the tool agent. The tokens available are listed in the following table: Token Description %Y Year (4 digits) %y Year (2 digits) %m Month (2 digits) %d Day of the month (2 digits) %H Hour ( 2 digits) %M Minute (2 digits) %S Second (2 digits) %pid Process ID %uid User name %seq Dump counter %tick msec counter %home Java home directory %last Last dump %job Job name (z/OS only) %jobid Job ID (z/OS only) %asid Address space ID (z/OS only) &DS Dump Section. An incrementing sequence number used for splitting TDUMP files to be less than 2 GB in size. (z/OS 64-bit only) Merging -Xdump agents If you configure more than one dump agent, each responds to events according to its configuration. However, the internal structures representing the dump agent configuration might not match the command line, because dump agents are merged for efficiency. Two sets of options can be merged as long as none of the agent settings conflict. This means that the list of installed dump agents and their parameters produced by -Xdump:what might not be grouped in the same way as the original -Xdump options that configured them. For example, you can use the following command to specify that a dump agent creates a Java dump file on class unload: java -Xdump:java:events=unload -Xdump:what This command does not create a new agent, as can be seen in the results from the -Xdump:what option. ... ---------------------- -Xdump:java: events=gpf+user+abort+unload+traceassert+corruptcache, label=/home/user/javacore.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.txt, range=1..0, priority=400, request=exclusive+preempt ---------------------- The configuration is merged with the existing Java dump agent for events gpf , user , abort , traceassert , and corruptcache , because none of the specified options for the new unload agent conflict with those for the existing agent. In the previous example, if one of the parameters for the unload agent is changed so that it conflicts with the existing agent, then it cannot be merged. For example, the following command specifies a different priority, forcing a separate agent to be created: java -Xdump:java:events=unload,priority=100 -Xdump:what The results of the -Xdump:what option in the command are as follows. ... ---------------------- -Xdump:java: events=unload, label=/home/user/javacore.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.txt, range=1..0, priority=100, request=exclusive+preempt ---------------------- -Xdump:java: events=gpf+user+abort+traceassert+corruptcache, label=/home/user/javacore.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.txt, range=1..0, priority=400, request=exclusive+preempt ---------------------- To merge dump agents, the request , filter , opts , label , and range parameters must match exactly. If you specify multiple agents that filter on the same string, but keep all other parameters the same, the agents are merged. For example: java -Xdump:none -Xdump:java:events=uncaught,filter=java/lang/NullPointerException -Xdump:java:events=unload,filter=java/lang/NullPointerException -Xdump:what The results of this command are as follows: Registered dump agents ---------------------- -Xdump:java: events=unload+uncaught, filter=java/lang/NullPointerException, label=/home/user/javacore.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.txt, range=1..0, priority=400, request=exclusive+preempt ---------------------- Dump events Dump agents are triggered by events occurring during operation of the OpenJ9 VM. Some events can be filtered to improve the relevance of the output. The following table shows the events that are available as dump agent triggers: Event Triggered when.... Filters on .... gpf A General Protection Fault (GPF) occurs. Not applicable user The VM receives the SIGQUIT (Linux, macOS\u00ae, AIX\u00ae, z/OS) or SIGBREAK (Windows\u2122) signal from the operating system. Not applicable abort The VM receives the SIGABRT signal from the operating system. Not applicable vmstart The virtual machine is started. Not applicable vmstop The virtual machine stops. Exit code; for example, filter=#129..#192#-42#255 load A class is loaded. Class name; for example, filter=java/lang/String unload A class us unloaded. Not applicable throw An exception is thrown. Exception class name; for example, filter=java/lang/OutOfMem* catch An exception is caught. Exception class name; for example, filter=*Memory* uncaught A Java exception is not caught by the application. Exception class name; for example, filter=*MemoryError systhrow A Java exception is about to be thrown by the VM. This is different from the 'throw' event because it is only triggered for error conditions detected internally in the VM. Exception class name; for example, filter=java/lang/OutOfMem* . thrstart A new thread is started. Not applicable blocked A thread becomes blocked. Not applicable thrstop A thread stops. Not applicable fullgc A garbage collection cycle is started. Not applicable slow A thread takes longer than 50ms to respond to an internal VM request. Time taken; for example, filter=#300ms will trigger when a thread takes longer than 300ms to respond to an internal VM request. allocation A Java object is allocated with a size matching the given filter specification. Object size; a filter must be supplied. For example, filter=#5m will trigger on objects larger than 5 Mb. Ranges are also supported; for example, filter=#256k..512k will trigger on objects between 256 Kb and 512 Kb in size. traceassert An internal error occurs in the VM. Not applicable corruptcache The VM finds that the shared class cache is corrupt. Not applicable excessivegc An excessive amount of time is being spent in the garbage collector. Not applicable Note: The gpf , traceassert , and abort events cannot trigger a heap dump, prepare the heap (request=prepwalk), or compact the heap (request=compact). Parameters -Xdump:<agent>:<suboptions> descriptions and examples. help To print usage information for a specific dump agent, use -Xdump:<agent>:help none:<options> Use the -Xdump:none option to add and remove dump agents for various VM events, update default dump settings (such as the dump name), and limit the number of dumps that are produced. The option can be used to affect all agents by specifying -Xdump:none:<options> or specific agents by specifying -Xdump:<agent>:none:<suboptions> where <suboptions> is one of the following control types: events=<event> exec=<command> file=<filename> filter=<filter> opts=<options> priority=<0-999> range=<ranges> request=<requests> Explanations for these suboptions are provided elsewhere in this topic. To remove all default dump agents and any preceding dump options, use -Xdump:none . Use this option so that you can subsequently specify a completely new dump configuration. You can also remove dump agents of a particular type. Here are some examples: To turn off all heap dumps (including default agents) but leave Java dumps enabled, use the following option: -Xdump:java+heap:events=vmstop -Xdump:heap:none To turn off all dump agents for corruptcache events: -Xdump:none:events=corruptcache To turn off just system dumps for corruptcache events: -Xdump:system:none:events=corruptcache To turn off all dumps when a java/lang/OutOfMemory error is thrown: -Xdump:none:events=systhrow,filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError To turn off just system dumps when a java/lang/OutOfMemory error is thrown: -Xdump:system:none:events=systhrow,filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError If you remove all dump agents by using -Xdump:none with no further -Xdump options, the VM still provides these basic diagnostic outputs: If a user signal (kill -QUIT) is sent to the VM, a brief listing of the Java threads including their stacks, status, and monitor information is written to stderr. If a crash occurs, information about the location of the crash, VM options, and native and Java stack traces are written to stderr. A system dump file is also written to the user's home directory. Note: Removing dump agents and specifying a new dump configuration can require a long set of command-line options. To reuse command-line options, save the new dump configuration in a file and use the -Xoptionsfile option. For more information, see -Xoptionsfile . defaults Each dump type has default options. To view the default options for a particular dump type, use -Xdump:<agent>:defaults . You can change the default options at run time. For example, you can direct Java dump files into a separate directory for each process, and guarantee unique files by adding a sequence number to the file name using: -Xdump:java:defaults:file=dumps/%pid/javacore-%seq.txt` Or, for example, on z/OS, you can add the jobname to the Java dump file name using: -Xdump:java:defaults:file=javacore.%job.%H%M%S.txt This option does not add a Java dump agent; it updates the default settings for Java dump agents. Further Java dump agents will then create dump files using this specification for filenames, unless overridden. Note: Changing the defaults for a dump type will also affect the default agents for that dump type added by the VM during initialization. For example if you change the default file name for Java dump files, that will change the file name used by the default Java dump agents. However, changing the default range option will not change the range used by the default Java dump agents, because those agents override the range option with specific values. events=<event> To trigger a dump as a result of an event, use the -Xdump:<agent>:events=<event> suboption. For a list of possible events, see Dump events . For example, the following command instructs the VM to create a dump agent at startup that produces a Heap dump whenever the vmstop event happens: -Xdump:heap:events=vmstop exec=<command> The exec suboption is used by the tool dump agent to specify an external application to start. You can set a specific command to run for a particular dump agent with the following command: -Xdump:<agent>:exec=<command> file=<filename> The file suboption specifies where the diagnostics information is written for the specified dump type. The syntax is -Xdump:<agent>:file=<filename> . For example, to create a Heap dump called my.dmp when a vmstop event is received, use: java -Xdump:heap:events=vmstop,file=my.dmp When producing system dump files or CEEDUMPs on z/OS platforms, use the dsn option instead of the file option. For example: java -Xdump:system:events=vmstop,dsn=%uid.MYDUMP Writing to STDOUT / STDERR Add one of the following options to write a Java dump file to STDOUT or STDERR respectively: -Xdump:java:file=/STDOUT/ -Xdump:java:file=/STDERR/ The keywords /STDOUT/ and /STDERR/ are not case sensitive; /stdout/ and /stderr/ are equivalent. By common convention, you can use a dash ( - ) to refer to STDOUT: -Xdump:java:file=- Tokens You can use tokens to add context to dump file names. For a list of tokens, see Dump agent tokens . File location The location for the dump file is selected from the following options, in this order: The location specified by the -Xdump:<agent>:file suboption on the command line (if that location includes a path). This location applies to the specified dump agent type only. The location specified by the -Xdump:directory option on the command line. This location applies to all dump agent types. The location specified by the relevant environment variable: Dump agent type z/OS operating systems Other operating systems Java dumps _CEE_DMPTARG IBM_JAVACOREDIR Heap dumps _CEE_DMPTARG IBM_HEAPDUMPDIR System dumps JAVA_DUMP_TDUMP_PATTERN IBM_COREDIR JIT dumps _CEE_DMPTARG IBM_COREDIR Snap traces _CEE_DMPTARG IBM_COREDIR The current working directory of the OpenJ9 VM process. If the directory does not exist, it is created. If the dump file cannot be written to the selected location, the VM reverts to using the following locations, in this order: On Windows platforms only, the system default location is C:\\WINDOWS . The location specified by the TMPDIR environment variable. The C:\\Temp on Windows operating systems, or the /tmp directory on other operating systems. This VM action does not apply to CEEDUMPs on z/OS operating systems that use the dsn option. You can prevent the VM reverting to different dump locations by using the -Xdump:nofailover option. filter=<filter> Some VM events occur thousands of times during the lifetime of an application. Dump agents can use filters and ranges to avoid producing an excessive number of dump files. The following syntax must be used: -Xdump:<agent>:filter=<filter> Wildcards You can use a wildcard in your exception event filter by placing an asterisk only at the beginning or end of the filter. The following command does not work because the second asterisk is not at the end: -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=*InvalidArgumentException#*.myVirtualMethod To fix the problem, change this filter to the following string: -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=*InvalidArgumentException#MyApplication.* Class loading and exception events You can filter class loading ( load ) and exception ( throw , catch , uncaught , systhrow ) events by the name of the class that is being loaded, thrown or caught. For example: -Xdump:java:events=load,filter=java/lang/String -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=java/lang/ArrayStoreException -Xdump:java:events=catch,filter=java/lang/NullPointerException In addition, you can filter throw , uncaught , and systhrow exception events by the name of the method that throws the exception. The name of the parent class must include the full package name, using the forward slash (/) as a separator. Use a dot (.) to separate the method name from the class name. You can use an asterisk (*) as a wildcard character, to include all methods (optional portions are shown in brackets). For example: -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=ExceptionClassName[#com/ibm/ThrowingClassName.throwingMethodName[#stackFrameOffset]] For example, to trigger a Java dump when method MyApplication.myMethod() throws a NullPointerException exception, use the following syntax: -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=java/lang/NullPointerException#com/ibm/MyApplication.myMethod The stack frame offset allows you to filter on the name of a method that calls the throwing method. This option is useful if the exception is being thrown from a general purpose or utility class. For example, to trigger a Java dump when a method called by MyApplication.main() throws a NullPointerException , use the following syntax: -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=java/lang/NullPointerException#com/ibm/MyApplication.main#1 The default value of the stack frame offset is zero. You can filter the catch exception events by Java method name (optional portions are shown in brackets). For example: -Xdump:java:events=catch,filter=ExceptionClassName[#com/ibm/CatchingClassName.catchingMethodName] You can filter throw , uncaught , and systhrowexception events by Java method name (optional portions are shown in brackets): -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=ExceptionClassName[#com/ibm/ThrowingClassName.throwingMethodName[#stackFrameOffset]] You can filter the catch exception events by Java method name (optional portions are shown in brackets): -Xdump:java:events=catch,filter=ExceptionClassName[#com/ibm/CatchingClassName.catchingMethodName] Note: The filters apply to the stacktrace and fire every time the same exception is rethrown, which might result in multiple Java core files. vmstop event You can filter the VM shut down event ( vmstop ) by using one or more exit codes: -Xdump:java:events=vmstop,filter=#129..192#-42#255 slow event You can filter the slow event to change the time threshold from the default of 50 ms: -Xdump:java:events=slow,filter=#300ms allocation event (Linux, macOS, and Windows only) You must filter the allocation event to specify the size of objects that cause a trigger. You can set the filter size from zero up to the maximum value of a 32-bit pointer on 32-bit platforms, or the maximum value of a 64-bit pointer on 64-bit platforms. Setting the lower filter value to zero triggers a dump on all allocations. For example, to trigger dumps on allocations greater than 5 Mb in size, use: -Xdump:stack:events=allocation,filter=#5m To trigger dumps on allocations between 256Kb and 512Kb in size, use: -Xdump:stack:events=allocation,filter=#256k..512k Other events If you apply a filter to an event that does not support filtering, the filter is ignored. msg_filter=<filter> You can use the msg_filter suboption to filter on text strings within an exception message, allowing you to reduce the number of dump files produced. This option is supported only for the following events: throw , catch , systhrow , and uncaught . Use the following syntax to include message filtering in your dump output: -Xdump:<agent>:events=<event>,msg_filter=<filter>` where <filter> is a text string from the exceptions that you want to include in the dump file. This suboption supports asterisks as wild cards. The following example filters java/lang/VerifyError exceptions that contains the text string class format : -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=java/lang/VerifyError,msg_filter=*class format* opts=<options> The full syntax is -Xdump:<agent>:opts=<options> . The heap dump agent uses this suboption to specify the type of file to produce. On z/OS, the system dump agent uses this suboption to specify the type of dump to produce. Heap dumps You can specify a PHD heap dump file (PHD), a classic text heap dump file (CLASSIC), or both. The default is a PHD file. For example: -Xdump:heap:opts=PHD -Xdump:heap:opts=CLASSIC -Xdump:heap:opts=PHD+CLASSIC z/OS system dumps You can specify a system transaction dump (IEATDUMP), an LE dump (CEEDUMP), or both. The default is an IEADUMP file. For example: -Xdump:system:opts=IEATDUMP -Xdump:system:opts=CEEDUMP -Xdump:system:opts=IEATDUMP+CEEDUMP The ceedump agent is the preferred way to specify LE dumps, for example: -Xdump:ceedump:events=gpf Tool dumps The tool dump agent supports two suboptions that can be specified using the opts subption. You can run the external process asynchronously with opts=ASYNC. You can also specify a delay in milliseconds that produces a pause after starting the command. These two options can be used independently or together. The following examples show different options for starting a new process that runs myProgram : -Xdump:tool:events=vmstop,exec=myProgram Without the opts suboption, the tool dump agent starts the process, and waits for the process to end before continuing. -Xdump:tool:events=vmstop,exec=myProgram,opts=ASYNC When opts=ASYNC is specified, the tool dump agent starts the process, and continues without waiting for the new process to end. -Xdump:tool:events=vmstop,exec=myProgram,opts=WAIT1000 This option starts the process, waits for the process to end, and then waits a further 1 second (1000 milliseconds) before continuing. -Xdump:tool:events=vmstop,exec=myProgram,opts=ASYNC+WAIT10000 Finally the last example starts the process and waits for 10 seconds before continuing, whether the process is still running or not. This last form is useful if you are starting a process that does not end, but requires time to initialize properly. priority=<0-999> One event can generate multiple dump files. The agents that produce each dump file run sequentially and their order is determined by the priority keyword set for each agent. The full syntax for this command is -Xdump:<agent>:priority=<0-999> . Examination of the output from -Xdump:what shows that a gpf event produces a snap trace, a Java dump file, and a system dump file. In this example, the system dump runs first, with priority 999. The snap dump runs second, with priority 500. The Java dump runs last, with priority 10: -Xdump:heap:events=vmstop,priority=123 The maximum value allowed for priority is 999. Higher priority dump agents are started first. If you do not specifically set a priority, default values are taken based on the dump type. The default priority and the other default values for a particular type of dump, can be displayed by using -Xdump:<type>:defaults . For example: java -Xdump:heap:defaults -version Default -Xdump:heap settings: events=gpf+user filter= file=/home/user/heapdump.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.phd range=1..0 priority=500 request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk opts=PHD range=<ranges> You can start and stop dump agents on a particular occurrence of a VM event by using the range suboption: -Xdump:<agent>:range=<ranges> For example: -Xdump:java:events=fullgc,range=100..200 Note: range=1..0 against an event means \"on every occurrence\". The VM default dump agents have the range suboption set to 1..0 for all events except systhrow. Most systhrow events with filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError have the range suboption set to 1..4, which limits the number of dump files produced on OutOfMemory conditions to a maximum of 4. For more information, see Default dump agents . If you add a new dump agent and do not specify the range, a default of 1..0 is used. request=<requests> Use the request suboption to ask the VM to prepare the state before starting the dump agent: -Xdump:<agent>:request=<requests> The available suboptions are listed in the following table: suboption value Description exclusive Request exclusive access to the VM. compact Run garbage collection. This option removes all unreachable objects from the heap before the dump file is generated. prepwalk Prepare the heap for walking. You must also specify exclusive when you use this option. serial Suspend other dumps until this dump is finished. preempt Applies to the Java dump agent and controls whether native threads in the process are forcibly pre-empted in order to collect stack traces. If this option is not specified, only Java stack traces are collected in the Java dump. You can specify more than one request option by using + . For example: -Xdump:heap:request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk The VM exclusive access mechanism allows a VM thread to halt the activity of other VM threads in a controlled way by using internal VM locks. When the request=exclusive option is specified for a dump agent, the VM thread that is producing the dump waits for threads that are running Java code to halt, and for garbage collection operations to complete, before the dump file is written. This process helps ensure that the dump has consistent data. When the dump is complete, the mechanism allows the other threads to resume. By default, only system dumps for OutOfMemoryError exceptions request exclusive access. Other system dump events typically result from a crash. In these cases, exclusive access is not requested because acquiring locks during a crash can be problematic. If system dumps are requested by using the com.ibm.jvm.Dump.SystemDump() API, the default system dump agent settings are used, and exclusive access is not requested. However, if you intend to use the system dump file for Java heap memory analysis, use the following option to request exclusive access when the dump is taken: -Xdump:system:defaults:request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk These settings avoid capturing a dump file with in-flight data during garbage collection. As an alternative, you can use the com.ibm.jvm.Dump.triggerDump() API and specify request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk on the API call. For more information about the com.ibm.jvm.Dump API , see the API reference information. The default setting of the request suboption for Java dump files is request=exclusive+preempt . To change the settings so that Java dump files are produced without pre-empting threads to collect native stack traces, use the following option: -Xdump:java:request=exclusive In general, the default request options are sufficient. Dump output Dump output is written to different files, depending on the type of dump and the platform. File names include a time stamp.

Note: On z/OS, the system dump file name can be set with the JAVA_DUMP_TDUMP_PATTERN environment variable. The CEEDUMP, which is not produced by default, is stored in the directory specified by _CEE_DMPTARG or the current directory if _CEE_DMPTARG is not specified. System dumps on Linux Linux does not provide an operating system API for generating a system dump from a running process. The VM produces system dumps on Linux by using the fork() API to start an identical process to the parent VM process. The VM then generates a SIGSEGV signal in the child process. The SIGSEGV signal causes Linux to create a system dump for the child process. The parent VM processes and renames the system dump, as required, by the -Xdump options, and might add additional data into the dump file. The system dump file for the child process contains an exact copy of the memory areas used in the parent. The dump viewer can obtain information about the Java threads, classes, and heap from the system dump. However, the dump viewer, and other system dump debuggers show only the single native thread that was running in the child process. You can use the Linux kernel.core_pattern setting to specify the name and path for system dumps. The VM dump agents override the Linux system dump name and path by renaming the dump as specified in the -Xdump options. If the kernel.core_pattern setting specifies a different file system to the -Xdump options, the VM dump agents might be unable to change the file path. In this case the VM renames the dump file, but leaves the file path unchanged. You can find the dump file name and location in the JVMDUMP010I message. Note: If you use the %t specifier in the kernel.core_pattern setting, the VM does not rename the dump. The VM cannot determine the exact time that Linux generated the core file, and therefore cannot be certain which Linux dump file is the correct one to rename.

This option removes all unreachable objects from the heap before the dump file is generated. prepwalk Prepare the heap for walking. You must also specify exclusive when you use this option. serial Suspend other dumps until this dump is finished. preempt Applies to the Java dump agent and controls whether native threads in the process are forcibly pre-empted in order to collect stack traces. If this option is not specified, only Java stack traces are collected in the Java dump. You can specify more than one request option by using + . For example: -Xdump:heap:request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk The VM exclusive access mechanism allows a VM thread to halt the activity of other VM threads in a controlled way by using internal VM locks. When the request=exclusive option is specified for a dump agent, the VM thread that is producing the dump waits for threads that are running Java code to halt, and for garbage collection operations to complete, before the dump file is written. This process helps ensure that the dump has consistent data. When the dump is complete, the mechanism allows the other threads to resume. By default, only system dumps for OutOfMemoryError exceptions request exclusive access. Other system dump events typically result from a crash. In these cases, exclusive access is not requested because acquiring locks during a crash can be problematic. If system dumps are requested by using the com.ibm.jvm.Dump.SystemDump() API, the default system dump agent settings are used, and exclusive access is not requested. However, if you intend to use the system dump file for Java heap memory analysis, use the following option to request exclusive access when the dump is taken: -Xdump:system:defaults:request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk These settings avoid capturing a dump file with in-flight data during garbage collection. As an alternative, you can use the com.ibm.jvm.Dump.triggerDump() API and specify request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk on the API call. For more information about the com.ibm.jvm.Dump API , see the API reference information. The default setting of the request suboption for Java dump files is request=exclusive+preempt .

This policy is particularly useful for applications with many short-lived objects, such as transactional applications. Pause times can be significantly shorter than with the optthruput policy, while still producing good throughput. Heap fragmentation is also reduced. metronome (AIX, Linux x86 only) -Xgcpolicy:metronome The metronome policy is an incremental, deterministic garbage collector with short pause times. Applications that are dependent on precise response times can take advantage of this technology by avoiding potentially long delays from garbage collection activity. The metronome policy is supported on specific hardware and operating system configurations. For more information, see Using the Metronome Garbage Collector . Defaults and options -Xgc:synchronousGCOnOOM | -Xgc:nosynchronousGCOnOOM One occasion when garbage collection occurs is when the heap runs out of memory. If there is no more free space in the heap, using -Xgc:synchronousGCOnOOM stops your application while garbage collection removes unused objects. If free space runs out again, consider decreasing the target utilization to allow garbage collection more time to complete. Setting -Xgc:nosynchronousGCOnOOM implies that when heap memory is full your application stops and issues an out-of-memory message. The default is -Xgc:synchronousGCOnOOM . -Xnoclassgc Disables class garbage collection. This option switches off garbage collection of storage associated with Java classes that are no longer being used by the OpenJ9 VM. The default behavior is -Xnoclassgc. -Xgc:targetPauseTime=N Sets the garbage collection pause time, where N is the time in milliseconds. When this option is specified, the GC operates with pauses that do not exceed the value specified. If this option is not specified the default pause time is set to 3 milliseconds. For example, running with -Xgc:targetPauseTime=20 causes the GC to pause for no longer than 20 milliseconds during GC operations. -Xgc:targetUtilization=N Sets the application utilization to N% ; the Garbage Collector attempts to use at most (100-N)% of each time interval. Reasonable values are in the range of 50-80%. Applications with low allocation rates might be able to run at 90%. The default is 70%. This example shows the maximum size of the heap memory is 30 MB. The garbage collector attempts to use 25% of each time interval because the target utilization for the application is 75%. java -Xgcpolicy:metronome -Xmx30m -Xgc:targetUtilization=75 Test -Xgc:threads=N Specifies the number of GC threads to run. The default is the number of processor cores available to the process. The maximum value you can specify is the number of processors available to the operating system. -Xgc:verboseGCCycleTime=N N is the time in milliseconds that the summary information should be dumped. Note: The cycle time does not mean that the summary information is dumped precisely at that time, but when the last garbage collection event that meets this time criterion passes. -Xmx<size> Specifies the Java heap size. Unlike other garbage collection strategies, the real-time Metronome GC does not support heap expansion. There is not an initial or maximum heap size option. You can specify only the maximum heap size. nogc -Xgcpolicy:nogc This policy handles only memory allocation and heap expansion, but doesn't reclaim any memory. If the available Java heap becomes exhausted, an OutOfMemoryError exception is triggered and the VM stops. Because there is no GC pause and most overheads on allocations are eliminated, the impact on runtime performance is minimized. This policy therefore provides benfits for \"garbage-free\" applications. See the following section, \"When to use nogc\", for some possible use cases. You should be especially careful when using any of the following techniques with nogc because memory is never released under this policy: - Finalization - Direct memory access - Weak, soft, and phantom references This policy can also be enabled with the -XX:+UseNoGC option. Further details are available at JEP 318: Epsilon: A No-Op Garbage Collector . When to use nogc For most Java applications, you should not use nogc . However, there are some particular situations where it can be appropriate: Testing during development GC performance. Use nogc as a baseline when testing the performance of other GC policies, including the provision of a low-latency baseline. Application memory. Use nogc to test your settings for allocated memory. If you use -Xmx to set the heap size that should not be exceeded, then your application will crash with a heap dump if it tries to exceed your memory limit. Running applications with minimal or no GC requrements You might use nogc when an application is so short lived that allocated memory is never exhausted and running a full GC cycle is therefore a waste of resources. Similarly, when memory application is well understood or where there is rarely memory to be reclaimed, you might prefer to avoid unnecessary GC cycles and rely on a failover mechanism to occasionally restart the VM as necessary. optavgpause -Xgcpolicy:optavgpause The \"optimize for pause time\" policy uses concurrent mark and concurrent sweep phases. Pause times are shorter than with optthruput , but application throughput is reduced because some garbage collection work is taking place while the application is running. Consider using this policy if you have a large heap size (available on 64-bit platforms), because this policy limits the effect of increasing heap size on the length of the garbage collection pause. However, if your application uses many short-lived objects, the gencon policy might produce better performance. optthruput -Xgcpolicy:optthruput The \"optimize for throughput\" policy disables the concurrent mark phase. The application stops during global garbage collection, so long pauses can occur. This configuration is typically used for large-heap applications when high application throughput, rather than short garbage collection pauses, is the main performance goal.

If you use the -Xgc:preferredHeapBase option with -Xlp , the preferredHeapBase address must be a multiple of the large page size. If you specify an inaccurate heap base address, the heap is allocated with the default page size. To find out the large page sizes available and the current setting, use the -verbose:sizes option. Note that the current settings are the requested sizes and not the sizes obtained. For object heap size information, check the -verbose:gc output. Syntax -Xlp[<size>] See Using -X command-line options for more information about the <size> parameter. Explanation AIX\u00ae If <size> is specified, the VM attempts to allocate the JIT code cache memory by using pages of that size. Allocating large pages by using -Xlp is supported only on the 64-bit VM, not the 32-bit VM. If a size is not specified, this option requests the VM to allocate the Java object heap (the heap from which Java objects are allocated) with large (16 MB) pages. If large pages are not available, the Java object heap is allocated with the next smaller page size that is supported by the system. AIX requires special configuration to enable large pages. The VM supports the use of large pages only to back the Java object heap shared memory segments. The VM uses shmget() with the SHM_LGPG and SHM_PIN flags to allocate large pages. The -Xlp option replaces the environment variable IBM_JAVA_LARGE_PAGE_SIZE , which is now ignored if set. For more information about configuring AIX support for large pages, see Large pages in the AIX product documentation. Linux\u00ae If <size> is specified, the VM attempts to allocate the JIT code cache memory by using pages of that size. Allocating large pages by using -Xlp is supported only on the 64-bit VM, not the 32-bit VM. If large pages are not available, the VM does not start and produces an error message. The VM uses shmget() to allocate large pages for the heap. Large pages are supported by systems that have Linux kernels v2.6 or higher. Note: Linux for IBM Z\u00ae supports only a large page size of 1 M. Depending on the architecture, 1 MB or 2 MB large pages, when available, are the default size for the object heap and the code cache. The options that control these sizes are Xlp:codecache and -Xlp:objectheap . Windows\u2122 If <size> is specified, the VM attempts to allocate the JIT code cache memory by using pages of that size. Allocating large pages by using -Xlp is supported only on the 64-bit VM, not the 32-bit VM. z/OS\u00ae If <size> is specified but unsuccessful, or if executable pages of that size are not supported, 1 M pageable is attempted. If 1 M pageable is not available, the JIT code cache memory is allocated by using the default or smallest available executable page size. If <size> is not specified, the 1 M nonpageable size is used. If large pages are not supported by the hardware, or enabled in RACF\u00ae, the VM does not start and produces an error message. Allocating large pages by using -Xlp is supported only on the 64-bit VM, not the 31-bit VM. The -Xlp[<size>] option supports only a large page size of 2 G and 1 M (nonpageable). 1 M pageable pages, when available, are the default size for the object heap and the code cache. The options that control these sizes are Xlp:codecache and -Xlp:objectheap . Specifying -Xlp1M uses a 1 M pageable size for the code cache, when available.

However, an error message is not issued. There are a number of reasons why the VM cannot honor a large page request. For example, there might be insufficient large pages available on the system at the time of the request. To check whether the -Xlp request was honored, you can review the output from -verbose:gc .

For a non-persistent cache on Linux\u00ae or macOS\u00ae systems, the cache size is limited by the maximum amount of memory that can be reserved by a process ( SHMMAX ). If SHMMAX is less than 300MB, the default shared cache size is set to equal SHMMAX . If SHMMAX is greater than 80 MB, -Xscmx is set to 64 MB. If SHMMAX is less than 80MB an -Xscmx size is not set.

You must have sufficient permissions in <directory> . On AIX\u00ae, Linux, macOS, and Windows systems, the VM writes persistent cache files directly into the directory specified. Persistent cache files can be safely moved and deleted from the file system. For persistent caches, the directory must not be on an NFS mount. Nonpersistent caches are stored in shared memory and have control files that describe the location of the memory. Control files are stored in a javasharedresources subdirectory of the cacheDir specified. Do not move or delete control files in this directory. The listAllCaches utility, the destroyAll utility, and the expire suboption work only in the scope of a given cacheDir . On AIX, Linux, and macOS systems, if you specify the cacheDir=<directory> option, persistent caches are created with the following permissions ( -rw-r--r-- ): User: read/write Group: read (read/write if you also specify -Xshareclasses:groupAccess ) Other: read only Otherwise, persistent caches are created with the same permissions as non-persistent caches. The permissions for non-persistent caches are -rw-r----- , or -rw-rw---- if you also specify -Xshareclasses:groupAccess . Note: It is good practice to set an application-specific cache directory to avoid sharing the default cache directory with the default cache, or other application caches that don't set a cache directory, and means that your application is therefore unaffected by a user running java -Xshareclasses:destroyAll . See Class data sharing: Best practices for using -Xshareclasses . cacheDirPerm (Not Windows) -Xshareclasses:cacheDirPerm=<permission> Sets Unix-style permissions when you are creating a cache directory. <permission> must be an octal number in the ranges 0700 - 0777 or 1700 - 1777. If <permission> is not valid, the VM ends with an appropriate error message. The permissions that are specified by this suboption are used only when you are creating a new cache directory. If the cache directory already exists, this suboption is ignored and the cache directory permissions are not changed. If you set this suboption to 0000, the default directory permissions are used. If you set this suboption to 1000, the machine default directory permissions are used, but the sticky bit is enabled. If the cache directory is the platform default directory, /tmp/javasharedresources , this suboption is ignored and the cache directory permissions are set to 0777. If you do not set this suboption, the default permissions are used according to the following conditions: Condition Permissions The cache directory is /tmp/javasharedresources . If this directory already exists with different permissions, the permissions are changed when the cache is opened.\u2020 0777 The cache directory is a new directory and you also specify the groupAcess suboption 0770 The cache directory is a new directory and you do not specify the groupAccess suboption 0700 The cache directory already exists and is not /tmp/javasharedresources Unchanged \u2020On z/OS\u00ae systems, permissions for existing cache directories are unchanged, to avoid generating RACF\u00ae errors, which generate log messages. Note: It is good practice to explicitly set permissions for the cache directory when the defaults are not appropriate. See Class data sharing: Best practices for using -Xshareclasses . cacheRetransformed -Xshareclasses:cacheRetransformed Enables caching of classes that are transformed by using the JVMTI RetransformClasses function. For more information, see JVMTI redefinition and retransformation of classes . The option enableBCI is enabled by default. However, if you use the cacheRetransformed option, this option forces cache creation into -Xshareclasses:disableBCI mode. checkURLTimestamps -Xshareclasses:checkURLTimestamps Causes timestamps of jar or zip files to be checked every time a class is loaded. If a timestamp has changed, the class is loaded from the jar or zip file and not from the shared cache. This sub-option is not enabled by default and reflects the legacy behavior of the shared classes cache. Note: The timestamp of a bootstrap jar or zip file is checked once when it is used for the first time to load a class. destroy (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:destroy Destroys a cache that is specified by the name , cacheDir , and nonpersistent suboptions. A cache can be destroyed only if all VMs that are using it have ended and the user has sufficient permissions. destroyAll (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:destroyAll Tries to destroy all the caches that are specified by the cacheDir and nonpersistent suboptions. On Windows and z/OS systems, a cache can be destroyed only if all VMs that are using it have shut down and the user has sufficient permissions. Note: On z/OS, when the destroyAll option is invoked from a 31-bit VM, 64-bit caches are not destroyed. Similarly, when the destroyAll option is invoked from a 64-bit VM, 31-bit caches are not destroyed. The following message is displayed: JVMSHRC735I: Use a nn-bit VM to perform the requested operation on the nn-bit shared cache \"cachename\" as the nn-bit VM cannot verify that the shared memory was created by the VM. On AIX, Linux, and macOS systems: Non-persistent caches can be destroyed only if all VMs that are using it have shut down and the user has sufficient permissions. Persistent caches that are still in use continue to exist even when you use this option, but they are unlinked from the file system so they are not visible to new VM invocations. If you update the VM then restart an application for which a persistent shared cache already exists, the VM unlinks the existing cache and creates a new cache. Because the unlinked caches are not visible to new VMs, you cannot find them by using the -Xshareclasses:listAllCaches option, and you cannot use the -Xshareclasses:printStats option on them. You can therefore have multiple unlinked caches that consume file system space until they are no longer in use. destroyAllSnapshots (Cache utility) (Not Windows) -Xshareclasses:destroyAllSnapshots Destroys all shared cache snapshots that are available as a result of the specified cacheDir suboption. destroySnapshot (Cache utility) (Not Windows) -Xshareclasses:destroySnapshot Destroys a snapshot that is specified by the name and cacheDir suboptions. disableBCI -Xshareclasses:disableBCI Turns off BCI support. This option can be used to override -XXShareClassesEnableBCI . enableBCI -Xshareclasses:enableBCI This option is enabled by default. Allows a JVMTI ClassFileLoadHook event to be triggered every time, for classes that are loaded from the cache. This mode also prevents caching of classes that are modified by JVMTI agents. For more information about this option, see Using the JVMTI ClassFileLoadHook with cached classes . This option is incompatible with the cacheRetransformed option. Using the two options together causes the VM to end with an error message, unless -Xshareclasses:nonfatal is specified. In this case, the VM continues without using shared classes. A cache that is created without the enableBCI suboption cannot be reused with the enableBCI suboption. Attempting to do so causes the VM to end with an error message, unless -Xshareclasses:nonfatal is specified. In this case, the VM continues without using shared classes. A cache that is created with the enableBCI suboption can be reused without specifying this suboption. In this case, the VM detects that the cache was created with the enableBCI suboption and uses the cache in this mode. expire (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:expire=<time_in_minutes> Destroys all caches that are unused for the time that is specified before loading shared classes. This option is not a utility option because it does not cause the VM to exit. On Windows systems, which have NTFS file systems, the expire option is accurate to the nearest hour. fatal -Xshareclasses:fatal The VM does not start if class data sharing fails, for example because there was an error when accessing the cache directory. An error message is generated. This suboption is specified by default unless you use the bootClassesOnly suboption, which is equivalent to -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly,nonfatal . You can override this behavior by specifying -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly,fatal . See also nonfatal . findAotMethods (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:findAotMethods=<method_specification> -Xshareclasses:findAotMethods=help Print the AOT methods in the shared cache that match the method specifications. Methods that are already invalidated are indicated in the output. Use this suboption to check which AOT methods in the shared class cache would be invalidated by using the same method specifications with the invalidateAotMethods suboption. To learn more about the syntax to use for <method_specification> , including how to specify more than one method, see Method specification syntax . groupAccess (Not Windows) -Xshareclasses:groupAccess Sets operating system permissions on a new cache to allow group access to the cache. Group access can be set only when permitted by the operating system umask setting. The default is user access only. On AIX, Linux, and macOS systems, if a user creates a cache by specifying the groupAccess suboption, other users in the same group must also specify this suboption to be granted access to the same cache. In certain situations, warning messages might be generated when the groupAccess suboption is used. This message can occur when persistent caches are used: JVMSHRC756W Failed to set group access permission on the shared cache file as requested by the 'groupAccess' sub-option These messages can occur when non-persistent caches are used: JVMSHRC759W Failed to set group access permission as requested by the 'groupAccess' sub-option on the semaphore control file associated with shared class cache. JVMSHRC760W Failed to set group access permission as requested by the 'groupAccess' sub-option on the shared memory control file associated with shared class cache. This message can occur in combination with the snapshotCache suboption: JVMSHRC761W Failed to set group access permission as requested by the 'groupAccess' sub-option on the shared cache snapshot file. All of these warning messages mean that the user's umask setting does not allow either, or both, of the group read and write permission to be set on the file. The typical umask setting restricts only the write permission. To resolve the warning, either change the umask setting or remove the groupAccess suboption. help -Xshareclasses:help Lists all the command-line options. invalidateAotMethods (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:invalidateAotMethods=<method_specification> -Xshareclasses:invalidateAotMethods=help Modify the existing shared cache to invalidate the AOT methods that match the method specifications. Use this suboption to invalidate AOT methods that cause a failure in the application, without having to destroy the shared cache. Invalidated AOT methods remain in the shared cache, but are then excluded from being loaded. VMs that have not processed the methods, or new VMs that use the cache are not affected by the invalidated methods. The AOT methods are invalidated for the lifetime of the cache, but do not prevent the AOT methods from being compiled again if a new shared cache is created. To prevent AOT method compilation into a new shared cache, use the -Xaot:exclude option. For more information, see -Xaot . To identify AOT problems, see Diagnosing a JIT or AOT problem . To revalidate an AOT method, see the revalidateAotMethods suboption. Use the findAotMethod suboption to determine which AOT methods match the method specifications. To learn more about the syntax to use for <method_specification> , including how to specify more than one method, see Method specification syntax . listAllCaches (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:listAllCaches Lists all the compatible and incompatible caches, and snapshots that exist in the specified cache directory. If you do not specify cacheDir , the default directory is used. Summary information, such as Java version and current usage, is displayed for each cache. mprotect AIX, z/OS 31-bit: -Xshareclasses:mprotect=[default|all|none] Linux, Windows, macOS: -Xshareclasses:mprotect=[default|all|partialpagesonstartup|onfind|nopartialpages|none] where: default : By default, the memory pages that contain the cache are always protected, unless a specific page is being updated. This protection helps prevent accidental or deliberate corruption to the cache. The cache header is not protected by default because this protection has a performance cost. On Linux, macOS, and Windows systems, after the startup phase, the Java virtual machine (VM) protects partially filled pages whenever new data is added to the shared class cache in the following sequence: The VM changes the memory protection of any partially filled pages to read/write. The VM adds the data to the cache. The VM changes the memory protection of any partially filled pages to read only. all : This value ensures that all the cache pages are protected, including the header. See Note. partialpagesonstartup : This value causes the VM to protect partially filled pages during startup as well as after the startup phase. This value is available only on Linux, macOS, and Windows systems. onfind : When this option is specified, the VM protects partially filled pages when it reads new data in the cache that is added by another VM. This option is available only on Linux, macOS, and Windows systems. nopartialpages : Use this value to turn off the protection of partially filled pages. This value is available only on Linux, macOS, and Windows systems. none : Specifying this value disables the page protection. Note: Specifying all has a negative impact on performance. You should specify all only for problem diagnosis and not for production. Specifying values partialpagesonstartup or onfind can also have a negative impact on performance when the cache is being populated. There is no further impact when the cache is full or no longer being modified. modified -Xshareclasses:modified=<modified_context> Used when a JVMTI agent is installed that might modify bytecode at run time. If you do not specify this suboption and a bytecode modification agent is installed, classes are safely shared with an extra performance cost. The <modified context> is a descriptor that is chosen by the user; for example, myModification1 . This option partitions the cache so that only VMs that are using context myModification1 can share the same classes. So if, for example, you run an application with a modification context and then run it again with a different modification context, all classes are stored twice in the cache. For more information, see Dealing with runtime bytecode modification . If you are migrating from IBM\u00ae SDK, Java Technology Edition, Version 7, or earlier releases, you must set -Xshareclasses:disableBCI when you use this option to retain the same behavior. name -Xshareclasses:name=<name> Connects to a cache of a given name, creating the cache if it does not exist. This option is also used to indicate the cache that is to be modified by cache utilities; for example, destroy . Use the listAllCaches utility to show which named caches are currently available. If you do not specify a name, the default name \"sharedcc_%u\" is used. \"%u\" in the cache name inserts the current user name. On operating systems other than Windows, you can specify \"%g\" in the cache name to insert the current group name. Note: It is good practice to explicitly specify a cache for your application. This avoids the application sharing a cache that is enabled by default or with another application that doesn't set a name, and ensures that the size of your application cache can be set appropriately and that cache space is used exclusively for your application. Note that you cannot change the size of a default cache that already exists by using the -Xscmx option, as that option has no effect on a pre-existing cache. See Class data sharing: Best practices for using -Xshareclasses . noaot -Xshareclasses:noaot Disables caching and loading of AOT code. AOT code already in the shared data cache can be loaded. noBootclasspath -Xshareclasses:noBootclasspath Disables the storage of classes that are loaded by the bootstrap class loader in the shared classes cache. Often used with the SharedClassURLFilter API to control exactly which classes are cached. For more information about shared class filtering, see Using the SharedClassHelper API . nocheckURLTimestamps -Xshareclasses:nocheckURLTimestamps Timestamps of jar or zip files are checked only when they are added to a class loader and used for the first time to look up a class. This is the default behavior, which can improve the performance of class loading from the shared classes cache, especially on Windows systems. To revert to the behavior of the shared classes cache in earlier releases, use the CheckURLTimeStamps sub-option. Restriction: When the nocheckURLTimestamps sub-option is used (default), if jar or zip files are updated after a class loader starts loading classes from them, an older version of the class might be loaded from the shared classes cache. If this scenario occurs, use the checkURLTimestamps option. nojitdata -Xshareclasses:nojitdata Disables caching of JIT data. JIT data already in the shared data cache can be loaded. none -Xshareclasses:none Added to the end of a command line, disables class data sharing. This suboption overrides class sharing arguments found earlier on the command line. This suboption disables the shared class utility APIs. To disable class data sharing without disabling the utility APIs, use the utilities suboption. For more information about the shared class utility APIs, see Obtaining information about shared caches . nonfatal -Xshareclasses:nonfatal Allows the VM to start even if class data sharing fails. Normal behavior for the VM is to refuse to start if class data sharing fails. If you select nonfatal and the shared classes cache fails to initialize, the VM attempts to connect to the cache in read-only mode. If this attempt fails, the VM starts without class data sharing. See also fatal . Note: Unless it is important that your application runs with class data sharing, it is good practice to set this parameter. See Class data sharing: Best practices for using -Xshareclasses . nonpersistent -Xshareclasses:nonpersistent Uses a nonpersistent cache. The cache is lost when the operating system shuts down. Nonpersistent and persistent caches can have the same name. On Linux, macOS, and Windows systems, you must always use the nonpersistent suboption when you run utilities such as destroy on a nonpersistent cache. z/OS supports only nonpersistent caches. Note: On macOS systems, you must set kern.sysv.shmmax and kern.sysv.shmall when using a nonpersistent cache. persistent -Xshareclasses:persistent Uses a persistent cache. The cache is created on disk, which persists beyond operating system restarts. Nonpersistent and persistent caches can have the same name. On AIX, you must always use the persistent suboption when you run utilities such as destroy on a persistent cache. Note: Persisent caches are not supported on z/OS systems. z/OS supports only nonpersistent caches. printAllStats (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:printAllStats Displays detailed information about the contents of the cache that is specified in the name suboption. If the name is not specified, statistics are displayed about the default cache. Every class is listed in chronological order with a reference to the location from which it was loaded. For more information, see printAllStats utility . printStats (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:printStats=<data_type>[+<data_type>] Displays summary information for the cache that is specified by the name , cacheDir , and nonpersistent suboptions. The most useful information that is displayed is how full the cache is and how many classes it contains. Stale classes are classes that are updated on the file system and which the cache has therefore marked as \"stale\". Stale classes are not purged from the cache and can be reused. Use the printStats=stale option to list all the stale entries and stale bytes. Specify one or more data types, which are separated by a plus symbol (+), to see more detailed information about the cache content. Data types include AOT data, class paths, and ROMMethods. For more information and for a full list of data types, see printStats utility . readonly -Xshareclasses:readonly Opens an existing cache with read-only permissions. The Java virtual machine does not create a new cache with this suboption. Opening a cache read-only prevents the VM from making any updates to the cache. If you specify this suboption, the VM can connect to caches that were created by other users or groups without requiring write access. On AIX, Linux, and macOS systems, this access is permitted only if the cache was created by using the -Xshareclasses:cacheDir option to specify a directory with appropriate permissions. If you do not use the -Xshareclasses:cacheDir option, the cache is created with default permissions, which do not permit access by other users or groups. By default, this suboption is not specified. reset -Xshareclasses:reset Causes a cache to be destroyed and then re-created when the VM starts up. This option can be added to the end of a command line as -Xshareclasses:reset . restoreFromSnapshot (Cache utility) (Not Windows) -Xshareclasses:restoreFromSnapshot Restores a new non-persistent shared cache from a snapshot file. The snapshot and shared cache have the same name and location, as specified by the name and cacheDir suboptions. The non-persistent cache cannot already exist when the snapshot is restored. Restoring a snapshot does not remove the snapshot file; it can be restored multiple times. On platforms that support persistent caches, the nonpersistent suboption must be specified in order to restore a snapshot. restrictClasspaths -Xshareclasses:restrictClasspaths Allows only the first VM that is initializing a shared cache to store classpaths in the cache. Subsequent VMs are not allowed to store classpaths in the cache unless the allowClasspaths option is specified. Use the restrictClasspaths option only if the application is designed to create class loaders of type java.net.URLClassloader or its subclass, such that their classpaths are unique to the instance of the application, but the classes that are loaded from these classpaths are the same. In such cases application classpaths that are stored by one VM cannot be used by another VM. For example, consider two VMs, VM1 and VM2, that are using class paths CP1 and CP2 respectively, where: CP1: url1;url2;url3;tempurl1;url4;url5 CP2: url1;url2;url3;tempurl2;url4;url5 These class paths differ only by one entry, which is the tempurl . The url1 , url2 , url3 , url4 , and url5 entries never change from run to run, whereas the tempurl entry is always different. This difference means that a class that is loaded from url4 or url5 , and stored into the shared cache by VM1, cannot be located by VM2. Therefore, an attempt by VM2 to load a class from url4 or url5 would cause it to store its own classpath CP2 into the shared cache, and also add new metadata for classes that are loaded from url4 or url5 . Addition of such unique class paths into the shared cache is not useful. Moreover, the additional metadata might adversely affect the performance of other VMs that connect to the shared cache. Because classes loaded from url4 or url5 are not loaded from the shared cache when the tempurl differs from the original, it is good practice to put the tempurl as the last entry in the class path. In situations such as that described in the example, the restrictClasspaths option can be used to restrict the addition of classpaths by ensuring that the first VM initializes the shared cache, and then prevents the addition of unique classpaths by subsequent VMs that attach to the shared cache. Note that use of the restrictClasspaths option in any other scenario is likely to negatively impact a VM's performance when it is using an existing cache. revalidateAotMethods (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:revalidateAotMethods=<method_specification> -Xshareclasses:revalidateAotMethods=help Modify the shared cache to revalidate the AOT methods that match the method specifications. Use this suboption to revalidate AOT methods that were invalidated by using the invalidateAotMethods suboption. Revalidated AOT methods are then eligible for loading into a VM, but do not affect VMs where the methods have already been processed. To learn more about the syntax to use for <method_specification> , including how to specify more than one method, see Method specification syntax . silent -Xshareclasses:silent Disables all shared class messages, including error messages. Unrecoverable error messages, which prevent the VM from initializing, are displayed. snapshotCache (Cache utility) (Not Windows) -Xshareclasses:snapshotCache Creates a snapshot file of an existing non-persistent shared cache. The snapshot has the same name and location as the shared cache, as specified by the name and cacheDir suboptions. The shared cache can be in use when the snapshot is taken, but VMs are blocked when they try to write to the shared cache, while the cache data is copied to the file. Typically, after a system is reinitialized, the snapshot file is used to restore the copy of the non-persistent cache into shared memory, via the restoreFromSnapshot suboption. Since this process removes all non-persistent caches from shared memory, restoring the cache from the snapshot file can result in better VM startup performance, because the contents of the shared cache, including classes and AOT code, do not have to be re-created. A snapshot can be created only if the user has sufficient permissions to create the destination snapshot file. If a snapshot of the same name exists already, it is overwritten. On platforms that support persistent caches, the nonpersistent suboption must be specified in order to create a snapshot. For information about removing snapshot files, see the destroySnapshot and destroyAllSnapshots suboptions. utilities -Xshareclasses:utilities Can be added to the end of a command line to disable class data sharing. This suboption overrides class sharing arguments found earlier on the command line. This suboption is like none , but does not disable the shared class utility APIs. For more information about the shared class utility APIs, see Obtaining information about shared caches . verbose -Xshareclasses:verbose Gives detailed output on the cache I/O activity, listing information about classes that are stored and found. Each class loader is given a unique ID (the bootstrap loader is always 0) and the output shows the class loader hierarchy at work, where class loaders ask their parents for a class if they can't find it themselves. It is typical to see many failed requests; this behavior is expected for the class loader hierarchy. The standard option -verbose:class also enables class sharing verbose output if class sharing is enabled. verboseAOT -Xshareclasses:verboseAOT Enables verbose output when compiled AOT code is being found or stored in the cache. AOT code is generated heuristically. You might not see any AOT code that is generated at all for a small application. You can disable AOT caching by using the noaot suboption. See the Messages Guide for a list of the messages produced. verboseHelper -Xshareclasses:verboseHelper Enables verbose output for the Java Helper API. This output shows you how the Helper API is used by your class loader. verboseIO -Xshareclasses:verboseIO Gives detailed output on the cache I/O activity, listing information about classes that are stored and found. Each class loader is given a unique ID (the bootstrap loader is always 0) and the output shows the class loader hierarchy at work, where class loaders must ask their parents for a class before they can load it themselves. It is typical to see many failed requests; this behavior is expected for the class loader hierarchy. Method specification syntax The following examples show how to specify more than one method specification when you are using the findAotMethods , invalidateAotMethods , or revalidateAotMethods suboptions. Each method specification is defined as follows: <packagename>/<classname>[.<methodname>[(<parameters>)]] If you want to include more than one method specification in a single option, separate the specifications with a comma and enclose all the specifications in {braces}. For example: {<packagename/classname>}[.{<methodname>}[({<parameters>})]] You can use an asterisk (*) in most places as a wildcard. You can use an exclamation point (!) before the specification to mean \"everything except this\". Parameters are optional, but if specified, should be enclosed in parentheses and the following native signature formats must be used: B for byte C for char D for double F for float I for int J for long S for short Z for Boolean L<classname>; for objects [ before the signature means array If you want to specify parameters to distinguish between methods, you can use -Xshareclasses:findAotMethods=* (with a wildcard) to list all the parameter variations. Copy the signature for the method that you want from the output. For example, the signature for the parameters (byte[] bytes, int offset, int length, Charset charset) is ([BIILjava/nio/charset/Charset;) Here are some examples: Method signature Matches... * All AOT methods. java/lang/Object All AOT methods in the java.lang.Object class java/util/* All AOT classes and methods in the java.util package java/util/HashMap.putVal All putVal methods in the java.util.HashMap class java/util/HashMap.hash(Ljava/lang/Object;) The private java.util.HashMap.hash(java.lang.Object) method *.equals All equals methods in all classes {java/lang/Object,!java/lang/Object.clone} All methods in java.lang.Object except clone {java/util/*.*(),java/lang/Object.*(*)} All classes or methods with no input parameter in the java.util package, and all methods in java.lang.Object {java/util/*.*(),!java/util/*.*()} Nothing.

In such cases application classpaths that are stored by one VM cannot be used by another VM. For example, consider two VMs, VM1 and VM2, that are using class paths CP1 and CP2 respectively, where: CP1: url1;url2;url3;tempurl1;url4;url5 CP2: url1;url2;url3;tempurl2;url4;url5 These class paths differ only by one entry, which is the tempurl . The url1 , url2 , url3 , url4 , and url5 entries never change from run to run, whereas the tempurl entry is always different. This difference means that a class that is loaded from url4 or url5 , and stored into the shared cache by VM1, cannot be located by VM2. Therefore, an attempt by VM2 to load a class from url4 or url5 would cause it to store its own classpath CP2 into the shared cache, and also add new metadata for classes that are loaded from url4 or url5 . Addition of such unique class paths into the shared cache is not useful. Moreover, the additional metadata might adversely affect the performance of other VMs that connect to the shared cache. Because classes loaded from url4 or url5 are not loaded from the shared cache when the tempurl differs from the original, it is good practice to put the tempurl as the last entry in the class path. In situations such as that described in the example, the restrictClasspaths option can be used to restrict the addition of classpaths by ensuring that the first VM initializes the shared cache, and then prevents the addition of unique classpaths by subsequent VMs that attach to the shared cache.

Syntax -Xsoftmx<size> Explanation Use the -Xmx option to set a \"hard\" limit for the maximum size of the heap. By default, -Xsoftmx is set to the same value as -Xmx . The value of -Xms must be less than, or equal to, the value of -Xsoftmx . See the introduction to this topic for more information about specifying <size> parameters. You can set this option on the command line, then modify it at run time by using the MemoryMXBean.setMaxHeapSize() method in the com.ibm.lang.management API. By using this API, Java applications can dynamically monitor and adjust the heap size as required. This function can be useful in virtualized or cloud environments, for example, where the available memory might change dynamically to meet business needs. When you use the API, you must specify the value in bytes, such as 2147483648 instead of 2g . For example, you might set the initial heap size to 1 GB and the maximum heap size to 8 GB. You might set a smaller value, such as 2 GB, for -Xsoftmx , to limit the heap size that is used initially: :::java -Xms1g -Xsoftmx2g -Xmx8g You can then use the com.ibm.lang.management API from within a Java application to increase the -Xsoftmx value during run time, as load increases. This change allows the application to use more memory than you specified initially. If you reduce the -Xsoftmx value, the garbage collector attempts to respect the new limit. However, the ability to shrink the heap depends on a number of factors. There is no guarantee that a decrease in the heap size will occur. If or when the heap shrinks to less than the new limit, the heap will not grow beyond that limit. When the heap shrinks, the garbage collector might release memory. The ability of the operating system to reclaim and use this memory varies based on the capabilities of the operating system. Notes: When using -Xgcpolicy:gencon , -Xsoftmx applies only to the non-nursery portion of the heap. In some cases the heap grows to greater than the -Xsoftmx value because the nursery portion grows, making the heap size exceed the limit that is set. See -Xmn for limiting the nursery size. When using -Xgcpolicy:metronome , -Xsoftmx is ignored because the Metronome garbage collector does not support contraction or expansion of the heap.

You can also trace Java methods. See the About trace section that follows for more detail. Trace data can be output in human-readable or in compressed binary formats. The VM provides a tool to process and convert the compressed binary data into a readable format. See Trace formatter .

Note: These options control which individual tracepoints are activated at run time and the implicit destination of the trace data. All these properties are independent of each other and can be mixed and matched in any way that you choose. For more information, see Tracepoint activation . About trace With the OpenJ9 trace feature, you can trace VM internal operations, Java applications, and Java methods, or any combination of these. VM internal operations The OpenJ9 virtual machine (VM) is extensively instrumented with tracepoints for tracing operations. Interpreting this trace data requires detailed knowledge of the VM, and is intended to diagnose VM problems. No guarantee is given that tracepoints will not vary from release to release and from platform to platform. Applications VM trace contains an application trace facility that allows tracepoints to be placed in Java code, enabling you to combine trace data with the other forms of trace. This capability is supported by the com.ibm.jvm.Trace API. Note that an instrumented Java application runs only on an OpenJ9 VM. For more information, see Application trace . Java methods Use method trace to debug and trace application code and the system classes provided with the VM. You can trace entry to and exit from Java methods run by the VM. You can select method trace by classname, method name, or both. You can also use wildcards to create complex method selections. For more information about command syntax, see methods . Trace can produce large amounts of data in a very short time. Before running trace, think carefully about what information you need in order to solve the problem. Here are some considerations: If you need only the trace information that is produced shortly before the problem occurs, consider wrapping the file by using the output option. In many cases, just use internal trace with an increased buffer size and snap the trace when the problem occurs. If the problem results in a thread stack dump or operating system signal or exception, trace buffers are snapped automatically to a file that is in the current directory. The file is called: Snapnnnn. yyyymmdd.hhmmssth.process.trc . You must also think carefully about which components need to be traced and what level of tracing is required. For example, if you are tracing a suspected shared classes problem, it might be enough to trace all components at level 1, and j9shr at level 9, while maximal can be used to show parameters and other information for the failing component. Tracepoint components and trace levels are described in the following sections: Tracepoint specification and Trace levels . There are two types of tracepoints inside the VM: Regular tracepoints include method tracepoints, application tracepoints, data tracepoints inside the VM and data tracepoints inside class libraries. You can display regular tracepoint data on the screen or save the data to a file. You can also use command line options to trigger specific actions when regular tracepoints fire. Auxiliary tracepoints are a special type of tracepoint that can be fired only when another tracepoint is being processed. For example, the stack frame information produced by the jstacktrace -Xtrace:trigger command. You cannot control where auxiliary tracepoint data is sent and you cannot set triggers on auxiliary tracepoints. Auxiliary tracepoint data is sent to the same destination as the tracepoint that caused them to be generated. Trace data can be written to one of the following locations: Memory buffers that can be dumped or snapped when a problem occurs. Use the -Xtrace:buffers=<size> option to control the size of the buffer allocated to each thread. Buffers allocated to a thread are discarded when that thread terminates. To examine the trace data captured in these memory buffers, you must snap or dump the data, then format the buffers. One or more files that are using buffered I/O. Use the -Xtrace:output option. An external agent in real time, using the -Xtrace:external option. stderr in real time. Any combination of the other items in this list. Default tracing By default, the equivalent of the following trace command line is always available in the VM: -Xtrace:maximal=all{level1},exception=j9mm{gclogger} When startup is complete, the equivalent of the following command line is added to enable level 2 trace points: -Xtrace:maximal=all{level2} Level 2 is used for default tracing that would produce too much data during the startup of the VM. If you set other trace options on the command line, or before the VM finishes startup (through use of JVMTI or the com.ibm.jvm.Trace API), the level 2 trace points are enabled just before your trace options are processed. This behavior ensures that the default level 2 trace points do not override any changes that you specify. The data generated by the tracepoints is continuously captured in wrapping memory buffers for each thread. You can find tracepoint information in the following diagnostics data: System memory dumps, extracted by using jdmpview. Snap traces, generated when the VM encounters a problem or an output file is specified. Using dump agents describes more ways to create a snap trace. For exception trace only, in Javadumps. Default memory management tracing The default trace options are designed to ensure that Javadumps always contain a record of the most recent memory management history, regardless of how much work the VM has performed since the garbage collection cycle was last called. The exception=j9mm{gclogger} clause of the default trace set specifies that a history of garbage collection cycles that have occurred in the VM is continuously recorded. The gclogger group of tracepoints in the j9mm component constitutes a set of tracepoints that record a snapshot of each garbage collection cycle. These tracepoints are recorded in their own separate buffer, called the exception buffer. The effect is that the tracepoints are not overwritten by the higher frequency tracepoints of the VM. The GC History section of the Javadump is based on the information in the exception buffer. If a garbage collection cycle has occurred in a traced VM, the Java dump probably contains a GC History section. Default assertion tracing The VM includes assertions, implemented as special trace points. By default, internal assertions are detected and diagnostics logs are produced to help assess the error. Assertion failures often indicate a serious problem, and the VM usually stops immediately. In these circumstances, raise an issue, including the standard error output and any diagnostic files that are produced. When an assertion trace point is reached, a message like the following output is produced on the standard error stream: 16:43:48.671 0x10a4800 j9vm.209 * ** ASSERTION FAILED ** at jniinv.c:251: ((javaVM == ((void *)0))) This error stream is followed with information about the diagnostic logs produced: JVMDUMP007I JVM Requesting System Dump using 'core.20060426.124348.976.dmp' JVMDUMP010I System Dump written to core.20060426.124348.976.dmp JVMDUMP007I JVM Requesting Snap Dump using 'Snap0001.20060426.124648.976.trc' JVMDUMP010I Snap Dump written to Snap0001.20060426.124648.976.trc Assertions are special trace points. They can be enabled or disabled by using the standard trace command-line options. Assertion failures might occur early during VM startup, before trace is enabled. In this case, the assert message has a different format, and is not prefixed by a timestamp or thread ID. For example: ** ASSERTION FAILED ** j9vmutil.15 at thrinfo.c:371 Assert_VMUtil_true(( publicFlags & 0x200)) Assertion failures that occur early during startup cannot be disabled. These failures do not produce diagnostic dumps, and do not cause the VM to stop. Tracepoint activation The options that control which individual tracepoints are activated at run time and the implicit destination of the trace data are listed under Syntax: Controlling tracepoint activation In some cases, you must use them with other options. For example, if you specify maximal or minimal tracepoints, the trace data is put into memory buffers. If you are going to send the data to a file, you must use an output option to specify the destination file name. With the exception of none , all options require at least one <tracepoint_specification> , which is described in the following section. Multiple statements of each type of trace are allowed and their effect is cumulative. If you want to use multiple trace options of the same name, use a properties file. (See properties .) Tracepoint specification Tracepoints are enabled by specifying component and tracepoint . If no qualifier parameters are entered, all tracepoints are enabled, except for <exception.output> trace, where the default is all {exception}. The <tracepoint_specification> syntax can be further broken down as follows: [!]<component>[{<group>}] or [!]<component>[{<type>}] or [!]<tracepoint_id>[,<tracepoint_id>] Where: The ! symbol is a logical not . That is, the tracepoints that are in a specification starting with ! are turned off. <component> is a Java component. <group> is a tracepoint group, which is a set of tracepoints that are defined within a component. <type> is the tracepoint type: entry , exit , event , exception , and eem . <tracepoint_id> is the tracepoint identifier. The tracepoint identifier constitutes the component name of the tracepoint, followed by its integer number inside that component. For example, j9mm.49 , j9shr.20-29 , j9vm.15 . To understand these numbers, see Determining the tracepoint ID of a tracepoint. Some tracepoints can be both an exit and an exception ; that is, the function ended with an error. If you specify either exit or exception , these tracepoints are included. Lists of Java components and tracepoint groups can be found in the tables that follow. The following table lists the possible Java components ( <component> ). To include all Java components, specify all . Component name Description avl VM AVL tree support io Class library java.io native code j9bcu VM byte code utilities j9bcverify VM byte code verification j9codertvm VM byte code run time j9dmp VM dump j9jcl VM class libraries j9jit VM JIT interface j9jni VM JNI support j9jvmti VM JVMTI support j9mm VM memory management j9prt VM port library j9scar VM class library interface j9shr VM shared classes j9trc VM trace j9util VM utilities j9vm VM general j9vmutil VM utilities j9vrb VM verbose stack walker map VM mapped memory support mt Java methods (see Note ) net Class library TCP/IP networking native code pool VM storage pool support rpc VM RPC support simplepool VM storage pool support sunvmi VM class library interface Note: When specifying the mt component you must also specify the methods option. The following table lists all the tracepoint groups ( <group> ). Each group is associated with one or more Java components: Component name or names Group name Description j9mm gclogger A set of tracepoints that record each garbage collection cycle. Equivalent to -verbose:gc output j9prt nlsmessage A set of tracepoints that record each NLS message that is issued by the VM. j9jcl , j9vm verboseclass A set of tracepoints that record each class as it is loaded. Equivalent to -verbose:class output. j9jni , j9vm checkjni A set of tracepoints that record JNI function checks. Equivalent to -Xcheck:jni output. j9vm checkmemory A set of tracepoints that record memory checks. Equivalent to -Xcheck:memory output. j9vm checkvm A set of tracepoints that record VM checks. Equivalent to -Xcheck:vm output. j9jit verbose A set of tracepoints that record JIT compiler configuration and method compilation. Equivalent to -Xjit:verbose output. mt compiledMethods A set of tracepoints that record compiled Java methods. mt nativeMethods A set of tracepoints that record Java native methods. mt staticMethods A set of tracepoints that record Java static methods. Here are some examples: To trace all tracepoints, specify the following command: -Xtrace:maximal=all To trace all tracepoints except **j9vrb** and **j9trc**, specify the following command: -Xtrace:minimal={all},minimal={!j9vrb,j9trc} To trace all entry and exit tracepoints in j9bcu , specify the following command: -Xtrace:maximal={j9bcu{entry},j9bcu{exit}} To trace all tracepoints in **j9mm** except tracepoints 20-30, specify the following command: -Xtrace:maximal=j9mm,maximal=!j9mm.20-30 To trace tracepoints j9prt.5 through j9prt.15 , specify the following command: -Xtrace:print=j9prt.5-15 To trace all **j9trc** tracepoints, specify the following command: -Xtrace:count=j9trc To trace all entry and exit tracepoints, specify the following command: -Xtrace:external={all{entry},all{exit}} Trace levels Tracepoints have been assigned levels 0 through 9 that are based on the importance of the tracepoint. A level 0 tracepoint is the most important. It is reserved for extraordinary events and errors. A level 9 tracepoint is in-depth component detail. To specify a given level of tracing, the level0 through level9 keywords are used. You can abbreviate these keywords to l0 through l9. For example, if level5 is selected, all tracepoints that have levels 0 through 5 are included. Level specifications do not apply to explicit tracepoint specifications that use the TPNID keyword. The level is provided as a modifier to a component specification, for example: -Xtrace:maximal={all{level5}} or -Xtrace:maximal={j9mm{L2},j9trc,j9bcu{level9},all{level1}} In the first example, tracepoints that have a level of 5 or less are enabled for all components. In the second example, all level 1 tracepoints are enabled. All level 2 tracepoints in j9mm are enabled. All tracepoints up to level 9 are enabled in j9bcu . Note: The level applies only to the current component. If multiple trace selection components are found in a trace properties file, the level is reset to the default for each new component. Level specifications do not apply to explicit tracepoint specifications that use the TPNID keyword. When the not operator is specified, the level is inverted; that is, !j9mm{level5} disables all tracepoints of level 6 or greater for the j9mm component. The following example enables trace for all components at level 9 (the default), but disables level 6 and higher for the locking component, and level 7 and higher for the storage component: -Xtrace:print={all},print={!j9trc{l5},j9mm{l6}} Here are some examples: To count the level zero and level one tracepoints matched, specify the following command: -Xtrace:count=all{L1} To produce maximal trace of all components at level 5 and j9mm at level 9, specify the following command: -Xtrace:maximal={all{level5},j9mm{L9}} To trace all components at level 6, but do not trace j9vrb at all, and do not trace the entry and exit tracepoints in the j9trc component, specify the following command: -Xtrace:minimal={all{l6}},minimal={!j9vrb,j9trc{entry},j9trc{exit}} Parameters Parameters to use with the -Xtrace option: buffers You can modify the size of the buffers to change how much diagnostic output is provided in a snap dump. This buffer is allocated for each thread that makes trace entries. The following table shows how this parameter can be set: Command Effect -Xtrace:buffers=<size> Creates buffers of the specified <size> in k (KB) or m (MB), allocated as needed to match the rate of trace data generation to the output media. -Xtrace:buffers=<size>dynamic Creates buffers of the specified <size> , allocated as needed to match the rate of trace data generation to the output media. -Xtrace:buffers=<size>nodynamic Creates buffers of the specified <size> , with a maximum allocation of two buffers per thread. If external trace is enabled, the number of buffers is doubled; that is, each thread allocates two or more buffers. The same buffer size is used for state and exception tracing, but, in this case, buffers are allocated globally. The default is 8 KB per thread. The dynamic and nodynamic suboptions have meaning only when tracing to an output file. Note: If nodynamic is specified, you might lose trace data if the volume of trace data exceeds the bandwidth of the trace output file. Message UTE115 is issued when the first trace entry is lost, and message UTE018 is issued when the VM ends. Here are some command line examples: To set a buffer size of 2 MB per thread, with dynamic buffering, use: -Xtrace:buffers=2m To limit each thread to 2 trace buffers, each of 128 KB: -Xtrace:buffers={128k,nodynamic} count (tracepoint) -Xtrace:count=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . The count option requests that only a count of the selected tracepoints is kept. When the VM ends, all nonzero totals of tracepoints (sorted by tracepoint id) are written to a file, called utTrcCounters , in the current directory. This information is useful if you want to determine the overhead of particular tracepoints, but do not want to produce a large amount (GB) of trace data. For example, to count the tracepoints that are used in the default trace configuration, use the following command: -Xtrace:count=all{level1},count=j9mm{gclogger} exception (tracepoint) -Xtrace:exception=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . When exception trace is enabled, the trace data is collected in internal buffers that are separate from the normal buffers. These internal buffers can then be written to a snap file or written to the file that is specified in an exception.output option. The exception option allows low-volume tracing in buffers and files that are distinct from the higher-volume information that minimal and maximal tracing have provided. In most cases, this information is exception-type data, but you can use this option to capture any trace data that you want. This form of tracing is channeled through a single set of buffers, as opposed to the buffer-per-thread approach for normal trace. Buffer contention might occur if high volumes of trace data are collected. A difference exists in the <tracepoint_specification> defaults for exception tracing; see Tracepoint specification . Notes: The exception trace buffers are intended for low-volume tracing. By default, the exception trace buffers log garbage collection (GC) event tracepoints, see Default tracing. You can send additional tracepoints to the exception buffers or turn off the GC tracepoints. Changing the exception trace buffers alters the contents of the GC History section in any Javadumps. When exception trace is entered for an active tracepoint, the current thread ID is checked against the previous caller's thread ID. If it is a different thread, or this is the first call to exception trace, a context tracepoint is put into the trace buffer first. This context tracepoint consists only of the current thread ID, which is necessary because of the single set of buffers for exception trace. (The formatter identifies all trace entries as coming from the Exception trace pseudo thread when it formats exception trace files.) exception.output Use exception output to redirect exceptions trace data to a file. -Xtrace:exception.output=<filename>[,<size>] Where: <filename> is a file name, which is created automatically if it does not exist. Otherwise, it is overwritten. To embed specific values in the file name use any of the following variables: %d% (today's date in \" yyyymmdd\" format), %p (process ID number of the process generating the trace), or %t% (time in 24-hour hhmmss format). Optionally, <size> is a value in megabytes (MB), for example, use 4m to specify 4 MB. When full, it wraps nondestructively to the beginning. If you do not limit the file, it grows indefinitely, until limited by disk space. Here are some examples: Exception trace output goes to file /u/traces/exception.trc with no size limit: -Xtrace:exception.output=/u/traces/exception.trc,maximal Exception trace output goes to file except and wraps at 2 MB: -Xtrace:exception.output={except,2m},maximal Exception trace output goes to a file whose filename contains today's date in yyyymmdd format (for example, traceout.20181025.trc ): -Xtrace:exception.output=traceout.%d.trc,maximal Exception trace output goes to a file whose filename contains the number of the process (the PID number) that generated it (for example, tracefrompid2112.trc ): -Xtrace:exception.output=tracefrompid%p.trc,maximal Exception trace output goes to a file whose filename contains the time in hhmmss format (for example, traceout.080312.trc ): -Xtrace:exception.output=traceout.%t.trc,maximal external (tracepoint) -Xtrace:external<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . The external option routes trace data to trace listeners, which are registered by using the JVMTI RegisterTracePointSubscriber() and DeregisterTracePointSubscriber() APIs. help -Xtrace:help Displays general trace help iprint (tracepoint) -Xtrace:iprint=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . The iprint option is the same as the print option, but uses indenting to format the trace. maximal (tracepoint) -Xtrace:maximal=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . When specified, trace data is placed into internal trace buffers that can then be written to a snap file or written to the files that are specified in an output trace option. All associated data is traced. minimal and maximal traces are independent from any types that follow them. For example, if the maximal option is specified, it does not affect a later option such as print . methods Using method trace provides a complete and potentially large diagnosis of code paths inside your application and the system classes. Use wild cards and filtering to control method trace so that you can focus on the sections of code that interest you. To specify one or more method specifications, use the following syntax: -Xtrace:methods=<method_specification>[,<method_specification>] The syntax for <method_specification> can be further broken down to the following suboptions: -Xtrace:methods={[!][*][<package>/]<class>[*],[[*]<method>[*]|[()]]} Where: The delimiter between parts of the package name is a forward slash, \"/\". The ! in the methods parameter is a NOT operator that allows you to tell the VM not to trace the specified method or methods. The parentheses, (), define whether or not to include method parameters in the trace. If a method specification includes any commas, the whole specification must be enclosed in braces, for example: -Xtrace:methods={java/lang/*,java/util/*},print=mt It might be necessary to enclose your command line in quotation marks to prevent the shell intercepting and fragmenting comma-separated command lines, for example: \"-Xtrace:methods={java/lang/*,java/util/*},print=mt\" To output all method trace information to stderr, use either the print or iprint suboptions: -Xtrace:print=mt,methods=*.* -Xtrace:iprint=mt,methods=*.* The iprint suboption prints to stderr with indentation. To output method trace information in binary format, see the output option. Here are some examples: Tracing entry and exit of all methods in a given class: To trace all method entry and exit of the ReaderMain class in the default package and the java.lang.String class, specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods={ReaderMain.*,java/lang/String.*},print=mt Tracing entry, exit and input parameters of all methods in a class: To trace all method entry, exit, and input of the ReaderMain class in the default package, specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods=ReaderMain.*(),print=mt Tracing all methods in a given package: To trace all method entry, exit, and input of all classes in the package com.ibm.socket , specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods=com/ibm/socket/*.*(),print=mt Multiple method trace: To trace all method entry, exit, and input in the Widget class in the default package and all method entry and exit in the common package, specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods={Widget.*(),common/*},print=mt Using the ! operator: To trace all methods in the ArticleUI class in the default package except those beginning with \"get\", specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods={ArticleUI.*,!ArticleUI.get*},print=mt Tracing a specific method in a class: This example traces entry and exit of the substring method of the java.lang.String class . If there is more than one method with the same name, they are all traced. You cannot filter method trace by the signature of the method. -Xtrace:print=mt,methods={java/lang/String.substring} Tracing the constructor of a class: This example traces entry and exit of the constructors of the java.lang.String class. -Xtrace:print=mt,methods={java/lang/String.<init>} Here is some example output: java \"-Xtrace:methods={java/lang*.*},iprint=mt\" HW 10:02:42.281*0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/String.<clinit>()V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method The output lines comprise of: 0x9e900 , the current execenv (execution environment). Because every VM thread has its own execenv , you can regard execenv as a thread-id . All trace with the same execenv relates to a single thread. The individual tracepoint ID in the mt component that collects and emits the data. The remaining fields show whether a method is being entered (>) or exited (<), followed by details of the method. minimal (tracepoint) -Xtrace:minimal=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . When specified, trace data is placed into internal trace buffers that can then be written to a snap file or written to the files that are specified in an output trace option. Only the time stamp and tracepoint identifier are recorded. When the trace is formatted, missing trace data is replaced with the characters \"???\" in the output file. minimal and maximal traces are independent from any types that follow them. For example, if the minimal option is specified, it does not affect a later option such as print . none (tracepoint) -Xtrace:none[=<tracepoint_specification>] For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . -Xtrace:none prevents the trace engine from loading if it is the only trace option specified. However, if other -Xtrace options are on the command line, it is treated as the equivalent of -Xtrace:none=all and the trace engine still loads. If you specify other tracepoints without specifying -Xtrace:none , the tracepoints are added to the default set. output Sends trace data to a file, optionally of a specific size and number of generations. -Xtrace:output=<filename>[,<size>[,<generations>]]` Where: <filename> is a file name, which is created automatically if it does not exist. Otherwise, it is overwritten. To embed specific values in the file name use any of the following variables: %d% (today's date in \" yyyymmdd\" format), %p% (process ID number of the process generating the trace), or %t% (time in 24-hour hhmmss format). Optionally, <size> is a value in megabytes (MB), for example, use 4m to specify 4 MB. When full, it wraps to the beginning. If you do not limit the file, it grows indefinitely, until limited by disk space. Optionally, <generations> is a value 2 through 36. These values cause up to 36 files to be used sequentially as each file reaches its <size> threshold. When a file needs to be reused, it is overwritten. If <generations> is specified, the filename must contain a # (hash, pound symbol), which will be substituted with its generation identifier, the sequence of which is 0 through 9 followed by A through Z. Note: When tracing to a file, buffers for each thread are written when the buffer is full or when the VM ends. If a thread has been inactive for a period of time before the VM ends, what seems to be 'old' trace data is written to the file. When formatted, it then seems that trace data is missing from the other threads, but this is an unavoidable side-effect of the buffer-per-thread design. This effect becomes especially noticeable when you use the generation facility, and format individual earlier generations. Here are some examples: Trace output goes to file /u/traces/gc.problem with no size limit: -Xtrace:output=/u/traces/gc.problem,maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to file trace , which will wrap at 2 MB: -Xtrace:output={trace,2m},maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to files gc0.trc , gc1.trc , and gc2.trc , each 10 MB in size: -Xtrace:output={gc#.trc,10m,3},maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to a file, where the filename contains today's date in yyyymmdd format (for example, traceout.20181025.trc ): -Xtrace:output=traceout.%d.trc,maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to a file whose name contains the number of the process (the PID number) that generated it (for example, tracefrompid2112.trc ): -Xtrace:output=tracefrompid%p.trc,maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to a file whose name contains the time in hhmmss format (for example, traceout.080312.trc ): -Xtrace:output=traceout.%t.trc,maximal=j9gc print (tracepoint) -Xtrace:print=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . The print option causes the specified tracepoints to be routed to stderr in real time. The VM tracepoints are formatted by using J9TraceFormat.dat . The class library tracepoints are formatted by J9TraceFormat.dat and TraceFormat.dat . properties You can use properties files to control trace. A properties file saves typing and allows you to create a library of files that are tailored to solving problems in a particular area. -Xtrace:properties[=<filename>] If <filename> is not specified, the VM searches for a default name of IBMTRACE.properties in the current directory. All the options that are in the file are processed in the sequence in which they are stored in the file, before the next option that is obtained through the normal mechanism is processed. Therefore, a command-line property always overrides a property that is in the file. Here is an example of a properties file: minimal=all // maximal=j9mm maximal=j9shr buffers=128k,nodynamic output=c:\\traces\\classloader.trc print=tpnid(j9vm.23-25) The following restrictions apply to the file: The file must be a flat ASCII file. Nesting is not supported; that is, the file cannot contain a properties option. You cannot leave properties that have the form <name>=<value> to default if they are specified in the property file; that is, you must specify a value, for example maximal=all . Do not add white space before, after, or within the trace options. If any error is found when the file is accessed, VM initialization fails with an explanatory error message and return code. To use a file trace.props stored in the c:\\trc\\gc directory, specify the following command: -Xtrace:properties=c:\\trc\\gc\\trace.props resume The resume option resumes tracing globally. -Xtrace:resume The suspend and resume options are not recursive. That is, two suspends that are followed by a single resume cause trace to be resumed. resumecount This trace option determines whether tracing is enabled for each thread. -Xtrace:resumecount=<count> If <count> is greater than zero, each thread initially has its tracing disabled and must receive <count> resumethis actions before it starts tracing. This option is used with the trigger option. Note: You cannot use resumecount and suspendcount together because they use the same internal counter. The following example starts with all tracing turned off. Each thread starts tracing when it has had three resumethis actions performed on it: -Xtrace:resumecount=3 sleeptime You can specify how long the sleep lasts when using the sleep trigger action. -Xtrace:sleeptime=nnn|aaams|bbbs Where: nnn sleeps for nnn milliseconds. aaams sleeps for aaa milliseconds. bbbs sleeps for bbb seconds. The default length of time is 30 seconds. If no units are specified, the default time unit is milliseconds. stackdepth Use this option to limit the maximum number of stack frames reported by the jstacktrace trace trigger action. -Xtrace:stackdepth=<n> Where <n> is the maximum number of stack frames reported. suspend -Xtrace:suspend Suspends tracing globally for all threads and all forms of tracing but leaves tracepoints activated. suspendcount This trace option determines whether tracing is enabled for each thread. -Xtrace:suspendcount=<count> If <count> is greater than zero, each thread initially has its tracing enabled and must receive <count> suspendthis actions before it stops tracing. You cannot use resumecount and suspendcount together because they both set the same internal counter. This trace option is for use with the trigger option. The following example starts with tracing turned on. Each thread stops tracing when it has had three suspendthis actions performed on it: -Xtrace:suspendcount=3 trigger The trigger parameter determines when various triggered trace actions occur. Supported actions include turning tracing on and off for all threads, turning tracing on or off for the current thread, or producing various dumps. -Xtrace:trigger=<clause>[,<clause>] This trace option does not control what is traced. It controls only whether the information that has been selected by the other trace options is produced as normal or is blocked. Types Each clause of the trigger parameter can be one of the following types: a method ( -Xtrace:trigger=method{...} ) a tracepoint ID ( -Xtrace:trigger=tpnid{...} ) a group ( -Xtrace:trigger=group{...} ) You can specify multiple clauses of the same type if required, but you do not need to specify all types. method -Xtrace:trigger=method{<methodspec>[,<entryAction>[,<exitAction>[,<delayCount>[,<matchcount>]]]]} On entering a method that matches <methodspec> , the specified <entryAction> is run. On leaving a method that matches <methodspec> , the specified <exitAction> is run. If you specify a <delayCount> , the actions are performed only after a matching <methodspec> has been entered that many times. If you specify a <matchCount> , <entryAction> and <exitAction> are performed at most that many times. <methodspec> is the specification of a Java method, consisting of a class and a method name separated by a dot.

VM internal operations The OpenJ9 virtual machine (VM) is extensively instrumented with tracepoints for tracing operations. Interpreting this trace data requires detailed knowledge of the VM, and is intended to diagnose VM problems. No guarantee is given that tracepoints will not vary from release to release and from platform to platform. Applications VM trace contains an application trace facility that allows tracepoints to be placed in Java code, enabling you to combine trace data with the other forms of trace. This capability is supported by the com.ibm.jvm.Trace API. Note that an instrumented Java application runs only on an OpenJ9 VM. For more information, see Application trace . Java methods Use method trace to debug and trace application code and the system classes provided with the VM. You can trace entry to and exit from Java methods run by the VM. You can select method trace by classname, method name, or both. You can also use wildcards to create complex method selections. For more information about command syntax, see methods . Trace can produce large amounts of data in a very short time. Before running trace, think carefully about what information you need in order to solve the problem. Here are some considerations: If you need only the trace information that is produced shortly before the problem occurs, consider wrapping the file by using the output option. In many cases, just use internal trace with an increased buffer size and snap the trace when the problem occurs. If the problem results in a thread stack dump or operating system signal or exception, trace buffers are snapped automatically to a file that is in the current directory. The file is called: Snapnnnn. yyyymmdd.hhmmssth.process.trc . You must also think carefully about which components need to be traced and what level of tracing is required. For example, if you are tracing a suspected shared classes problem, it might be enough to trace all components at level 1, and j9shr at level 9, while maximal can be used to show parameters and other information for the failing component. Tracepoint components and trace levels are described in the following sections: Tracepoint specification and Trace levels . There are two types of tracepoints inside the VM: Regular tracepoints include method tracepoints, application tracepoints, data tracepoints inside the VM and data tracepoints inside class libraries. You can display regular tracepoint data on the screen or save the data to a file. You can also use command line options to trigger specific actions when regular tracepoints fire. Auxiliary tracepoints are a special type of tracepoint that can be fired only when another tracepoint is being processed. For example, the stack frame information produced by the jstacktrace -Xtrace:trigger command. You cannot control where auxiliary tracepoint data is sent and you cannot set triggers on auxiliary tracepoints. Auxiliary tracepoint data is sent to the same destination as the tracepoint that caused them to be generated. Trace data can be written to one of the following locations: Memory buffers that can be dumped or snapped when a problem occurs. Use the -Xtrace:buffers=<size> option to control the size of the buffer allocated to each thread. Buffers allocated to a thread are discarded when that thread terminates. To examine the trace data captured in these memory buffers, you must snap or dump the data, then format the buffers. One or more files that are using buffered I/O. Use the -Xtrace:output option.

If you set other trace options on the command line, or before the VM finishes startup (through use of JVMTI or the com.ibm.jvm.Trace API), the level 2 trace points are enabled just before your trace options are processed. This behavior ensures that the default level 2 trace points do not override any changes that you specify. The data generated by the tracepoints is continuously captured in wrapping memory buffers for each thread. You can find tracepoint information in the following diagnostics data: System memory dumps, extracted by using jdmpview.

When exception trace is enabled, the trace data is collected in internal buffers that are separate from the normal buffers.

The exception option allows low-volume tracing in buffers and files that are distinct from the higher-volume information that minimal and maximal tracing have provided. In most cases, this information is exception-type data, but you can use this option to capture any trace data that you want. This form of tracing is channeled through a single set of buffers, as opposed to the buffer-per-thread approach for normal trace. Buffer contention might occur if high volumes of trace data are collected. A difference exists in the <tracepoint_specification> defaults for exception tracing; see Tracepoint specification . Notes: The exception trace buffers are intended for low-volume tracing. By default, the exception trace buffers log garbage collection (GC) event tracepoints, see Default tracing. You can send additional tracepoints to the exception buffers or turn off the GC tracepoints. Changing the exception trace buffers alters the contents of the GC History section in any Javadumps.

Here are some examples: Tracing entry and exit of all methods in a given class: To trace all method entry and exit of the ReaderMain class in the default package and the java.lang.String class, specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods={ReaderMain.*,java/lang/String.*},print=mt Tracing entry, exit and input parameters of all methods in a class: To trace all method entry, exit, and input of the ReaderMain class in the default package, specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods=ReaderMain.*(),print=mt Tracing all methods in a given package: To trace all method entry, exit, and input of all classes in the package com.ibm.socket , specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods=com/ibm/socket/*.*(),print=mt Multiple method trace: To trace all method entry, exit, and input in the Widget class in the default package and all method entry and exit in the common package, specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods={Widget.*(),common/*},print=mt Using the ! operator: To trace all methods in the ArticleUI class in the default package except those beginning with \"get\", specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods={ArticleUI.*,!ArticleUI.get*},print=mt Tracing a specific method in a class: This example traces entry and exit of the substring method of the java.lang.String class . If there is more than one method with the same name, they are all traced. You cannot filter method trace by the signature of the method. -Xtrace:print=mt,methods={java/lang/String.substring} Tracing the constructor of a class: This example traces entry and exit of the constructors of the java.lang.String class. -Xtrace:print=mt,methods={java/lang/String.<init>} Here is some example output: java \"-Xtrace:methods={java/lang*.*},iprint=mt\" HW 10:02:42.281*0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/String.<clinit>()V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method The output lines comprise of: 0x9e900 , the current execenv (execution environment).

Otherwise, it is overwritten. To embed specific values in the file name use any of the following variables: %d% (today's date in \" yyyymmdd\" format), %p% (process ID number of the process generating the trace), or %t% (time in 24-hour hhmmss format). Optionally, <size> is a value in megabytes (MB), for example, use 4m to specify 4 MB. When full, it wraps to the beginning. If you do not limit the file, it grows indefinitely, until limited by disk space. Optionally, <generations> is a value 2 through 36. These values cause up to 36 files to be used sequentially as each file reaches its <size> threshold. When a file needs to be reused, it is overwritten. If <generations> is specified, the filename must contain a # (hash, pound symbol), which will be substituted with its generation identifier, the sequence of which is 0 through 9 followed by A through Z. Note: When tracing to a file, buffers for each thread are written when the buffer is full or when the VM ends. If a thread has been inactive for a period of time before the VM ends, what seems to be 'old' trace data is written to the file. When formatted, it then seems that trace data is missing from the other threads, but this is an unavoidable side-effect of the buffer-per-thread design. This effect becomes especially noticeable when you use the generation facility, and format individual earlier generations. Here are some examples: Trace output goes to file /u/traces/gc.problem with no size limit: -Xtrace:output=/u/traces/gc.problem,maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to file trace , which will wrap at 2 MB: -Xtrace:output={trace,2m},maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to files gc0.trc , gc1.trc , and gc2.trc , each 10 MB in size: -Xtrace:output={gc#.trc,10m,3},maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to a file, where the filename contains today's date in yyyymmdd format (for example, traceout.20181025.trc ): -Xtrace:output=traceout.%d.trc,maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to a file whose name contains the number of the process (the PID number) that generated it (for example, tracefrompid2112.trc ): -Xtrace:output=tracefrompid%p.trc,maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to a file whose name contains the time in hhmmss format (for example, traceout.080312.trc ): -Xtrace:output=traceout.%t.trc,maximal=j9gc","title":"output"},{"location":"xtrace/#print-tracepoint","text":"-Xtrace:print=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification .

All the options that are in the file are processed in the sequence in which they are stored in the file, before the next option that is obtained through the normal mechanism is processed.

These options include: System properties Standard options Nonstandard (or -X) options -XX options Although the command line is the traditional way to specify command-line options, you can also pass options to the OpenJ9 virtual machine (VM) by using a manifest file, options files, and environment variables. Options specified on the command line override the equivalent environment variables. For example, specifying java -cp <dir1> completely overrides setting the environment variable CLASSPATH=<dir2> . Quotation marks Use single or double quotation marks for command-line options only when explicitly directed to do so. Single and double quotation marks have different meanings on different platforms, operating systems, and shells. Do not use '-X<option>' or \"-X<option>\" . Instead, you must use -X<option> . For example, do not use '-Xmx500m' and \"-Xmx500m\" . Write this option as -Xmx500m . Precedence The sequence of the Java options on the command line defines which options take precedence during startup. Rightmost options have precedence over leftmost options. In the following example, the -Xjit option takes precedence: java -Xint -Xjit myClass At startup, the list of VM arguments is constructed in the following order, with the lowest precedence first: Certain options are created automatically by the VM, which specify arguments such as search paths and version information. The VM automatically adds -Xoptionsfile=<path>/options.default at the beginning of the command line, where <path> is the path to the VM directory. You can modify the options.default file to include any options that you want to specify for your application instead of entering these options on the command line. For more information about the path and construction of the file, see -Xoptionsfile . Options can be specified in an executable JAR file by using the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file. Options are placed in the main section in a header named IBM-Java-Options . Only one IBM-Java-Options header is permitted, but the header can contain multiple options, separated by spaces. A long sequence of options can be split using a header continuation but are treated as a single line. Example manifest file: Manifest-Version: 1.0 Class-Path: . Main-Class: HelloWorld IBM-Java-Options: -Xshareclasses:name=mycache,nonfa tal,cacheDirPerm=1000 -Dproperty=example -Da.long.system.pro perty=\"this is a long system property value to demonstrate long VM arguments in the manifest file\" This example manifest file is parsed as the following string: -Xshareclasses:name=mycache,nonfatal,cacheDirPerm=1000 -Dproperty=example -Da.long.system.property=this is a long system property value to demonstrate long VM arguments in the manifest file Options specified in the manifest file are subject to the same restrictions as options files. For more information, see the -Xoptionsfile topic in the user guide. Environment variables that are described in OpenJ9 environment variables are translated into command-line options. For example, the following environment variable adds the parameter -Xrs to the list of arguments: On Windows\u2122 systems: set IBM_NOSIGHANDLER=<non_null_string> On AIX\u00ae, Linux\u00ae, macOS\u00ae, and z/OS\u00ae systems: export IBM_NOSIGHANDLER=<non_null_string> The OPENJ9_JAVA_OPTIONS environment variable. You can set command-line options using this environment variable. The options that you specify with this environment variable are added to the command line when a VM starts in that environment. The environment variable can contain multiple blank-delimited argument strings, but must not contain comments. For example: On Windows systems: set OPENJ9_JAVA_OPTIONS=\"-Dmysysprop1=tcpip -Dmysysprop2=wait -Xdisablejavadump\" On AIX, Linux, macOS, and z/OS systems: export OPENJ9_JAVA_OPTIONS=\"-Dmysysprop1=tcpip -Dmysysprop2=wait -Xdisablejavadump\" Note: The environment variable JAVA_TOOLS_OPTIONS is equivalent to OPENJ9_JAVA_OPTIONS and is available for compatibility with JVMTI.

These capabilities include dump files, verbose logs, and trace files, which are supported by a variety of diagnostic tools and interfaces. Dumps Various types of dumps are produced by default in response to certain events, such as a GPF fault or an OutOfMemoryError exception. You can also trigger the production of dumps by using the com.ibm.jvm.Dump API or by specifying -Xdump options on the command line. All dumps are produced by dump agents, which are initialized when the OpenJ9 VM starts. Different dumps target different areas of the runtime environment. If you want to generate a dump to diagnose a particular type of problem, you need to understand what data the dump will provide. The following dumps are typically used for problem diagnosis: Java dumps ( -Xdump:java ) contain information that relates to the OpenJ9 VM and the Java\u2122 application, such as the operating environment, locks, threads, hooks, shared classes, and class loaders. Heap dumps ( -Xdump:heap ) show the content of the Java heap. System dumps ( -Xdump:system ) contain a raw process image or address space of an application. Other types of dump include binary JIT dumps, stack dumps, and snap dumps. For a complete list of dump agents and the diagnostic data they produce, see Dump agents . Verbose log files Some components of OpenJ9 can also produce verbose output or log files to assist with problem determination. Class data sharing provides a number of -Xshareclasses suboptions to provide detailed data about the content of a shared classes cache, cache I/O activity, and information about the Java Helper API (where used). For example, the -Xshareclasses:printAllStats suboption lists every class in chronological order with a reference to the location from which it was loaded. For more information, see -Xshareclasses . Garbage collection operations can be analyzed by producing verbose output from the -verbose:gc standard option. This output can be redirected to a file by specifying the -Xverbosegclog option. Information can be obtained about GC initialization, stop-the-world processing, finalization, reference processing, and allocation failures. Even more granular information can be obtained with the -Xtgc option. The JIT compiler provides verbose logging, which records all compiler operations. To find out how to enable logging, read the JIT troubleshooting content. Class loader operations can be analyzed by producing verbose output from the -verbose:dynload standard option, which shows detailed information as each class is loaded by the VM. Trace files The OpenJ9 trace facility can be used to trace applications, Java methods, or internal JVM operations with minimal impact on performance. Trace is configured by using the -Xtrace command line option, which allows you to control what is traced and when. Trace data is produced in binary format and must be processed by the OpenJ9 trace formatter to convert it to a readable form. For more information, see Trace formatter . Diagnostic tools A number of diagnostic tools are available with OpenJ9 to assist with the analysis of dump and trace files. Dump extractor The dump extractor ( jextract ) supports a full analysis of core files on specific platforms by collecting key files from a system and packaging them into an archive along with a core dump. This archive file is extremely useful when reporting issues to the OpenJ9 community, helping to ensure a faster analysis and turnaround. For more information, see Dump extractor . Dump viewer Because system dumps are binary files, OpenJ9 provides a dump viewer tool ( jdmpview ) to analyze the contents. This tool can work with dumps from any platforms independently of a system debugger. For more information, see Dump viewer . Trace formatter The trace formatter tool converts binary trace point data in a trace file into a readable format for analysis. For more information, see Trace formatter . Option builder OpenJ9 contains an extensive set of command-line options to assist with problem diagnosis. Certain options are complex, containing many sub-options with numerous parameters. Whilst these offer a great degree of flexibility, the syntax can be difficult to construct. Option builder tools are available that provide a simple graphical user interface to help you construct your command-line argument. For more information, see Option builder . HotSpot-compatible tools A number of tools are available for compatibility with the reference implementation. These tools are independently implemented by OpenJ9 but have similar functions, allowing users to migrate more easily. The available tools are listed in the Tools section. Note: If you are already familiar with tools that are provided with HotSpot, see Switching to OpenJ9 , which explains some of the differences you might encounter when using OpenJ9. Eclipse marketplace tools OpenJ9 provides support for a number of monitoring and diagnostic tools that can be found in the Eclipse marketplace . Each tool provides a graphical user interface to help you visualize data and, in some cases, can provide tuning or debugging recommendations. Health Center: Provides real-time monitoring of running applications with minimal overhead over the network. You can monitor a whole range of operations including, class loading, CPU usage, GC heap and pause times, I/O activity, lock contention, method trace, native memory usage, profiling, and live threads. For more information, read the Health Center documentation . Garbage Collection Memory Vizualizer (GCMV): Plots GC and native memory data over time. You can view and save data as a report, raw log, tabulated data, or in graphical format. The tool helps to diagnose problems such as memory leaks with data presented in various visual formats for analysis. Tuning recommendations are also provided. For more information, read the GCMV documentation . Memory Analyzer: Examines the Java object heap to help find memory leaks or reduce memory consumption. Support is available for OpenJ9 via the DTFJ interface (Install from the Eclipse Help menu; Install New Software > Work with \"IBM Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java\" > IBM Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools > Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java). More information about Eclipse MAT can be found on the project website page . Interactive Diagnostic Data Explorer (IDDE): A GUI alternative to the OpenJ9 dump viewer , which can examine the contents of an OpenJ9 system dump. For more information, read the IDDE documentation . If you are familiar with using HotSpot as part of an Oracle JDK or OpenJDK, the Java VisualVM utility is functionally similar to Health Center. Interfaces JVM tool interface (JVMTI) OpenJ9 supports the Java Virtual Machine Tool Interface (JVMTI) and provides extensions that allow JVMTI tools to obtain diagnostic information or trigger diagnostic operations in the VM. For more information, see Java Virtual Machine Tool Interface . DTFJ Interface OpenJ9 includes the Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java (DTFJ) API. Custom applications can be written that use this API to access a wide range of information in a system dump or a Java dump. DTFJ can be used with the Eclipse Memory Analyzer Toolkit (MAT) to examine the Java object heap for memory leaks and to reduce memory consumption. For more information, see Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java . java.lang.management API OpenJ9 provides MXBean additions and extensions to this standard API, which enables you to use tools such as JConsole to monitor and manage your Java applications. For more information, see MBeans and MXBeans in the IBM\u00ae Knowledge Center.

You can also generate a Java dump by calling the Dump API programmatically from your application or specifying the -Xdump:java option on the command line. If your Java application crashes or hangs, Java dumps can provide useful information to help you diagnose the root cause. If your application crashes, Java dumps are generated automatically for the following types of failure: the VM receives an unexpected signal or an assertion failure the VM runs out of memory If your application hangs, you can trigger the generation of a Java dump by sending a SIGQUIT signal ( kill -3 ) to the VM. Note: On Windows, if you started the VM in a console window you can force the VM to produce a Java dump in response to a SIGBREAK signal (Ctrl-Break keyboard combination). If you didn't start in a console window there is no equivalent to a Linux kill command on Windows for sending signals. The only option here is to trigger a full system dump by finding the VM process in the Processes tab of the Windows Task Manager and clicking Create dump file . To help you understand how a Java dump can help you with problem diagnosis, this topic includes a few scenarios to help you interpret the data: A crash caused by a general protection fault (gpf) A Java heap OutOfMemoryError (OOM) A native OutOfMemoryError (OOM) A deadlock situation A hang Java dump contents Java dumps summarize the state of the VM when the event occurs, with most of the information relating to components of the VM. The file is made up of a number of sections that provide different types of information. TITLE The first section of the Java dump file provides information about the event that triggered the production of the dump. In the following example you can see that a vmstop event triggered the dump at a specified date and time. 0SECTION TITLE subcomponent dump routine NULL =============================== 1TICHARSET UTF-8 1TISIGINFO Dump Event \"vmstop\" (00000002) Detail \"#0000000000000000\" received 1TIDATETIME Date: 2018/08/30 at 21:55:47:607 1TINANOTIME System nanotime: 22012355276134 1TIFILENAME Javacore filename: /home/doc-javacore/javacore.20180830.215547.30285.0001.txt 1TIREQFLAGS Request Flags: 0x81 (exclusive+preempt) 1TIPREPSTATE Prep State: 0x106 (vm_access+exclusive_vm_access+trace_disabled) GPINFO The GPINFO section provides general information about the system that the VM is running on.

This value can provide some clues about which component of the VM might have been involved. Look for the following line in the output: 1XHFLAGS VM flags:0000000000000000 The hexadecimal number recorded for VM flags ends in MSSSS, where M is the VM component and SSSS is component-specific code as shown in the following table: Component Code value INTERPRETER 0x10000 GC 0x20000 GROW_STACK 0x30000 JNI 0x40000 JIT_CODEGEN 0x50000 BCVERIFY 0x60000 RTVERIFY 0x70000 SHAREDCLASSES 0x80000 A value of 0000000000000000 (0x00000) indicates that a crash occurred outside of the VM.

LOCKS This section of the Java dump provides information about locks, which protect shared resources from being accessed by more than one entity at a time. The information is essential in a deadlock situation, where two threads attempt to synchronize on an object and lock an instance of a class. Precise information is recorded about the threads that are causing the problem, which enables you to identify the root cause. The following example shows a typical LOCKS section, where no deadlocks existed at the time the dump was triggered.

NULL THREADS The THREADS section of a Java dump file provides summary information about the VM thread pool and detailed information about Java threads, native threads, and stack traces. Understanding the content of this section can help you diagnose problems that are caused by blocked or waiting threads. A Java thread runs on a native thread. Several lines are recorded for each Java thread in the Thread Details subsection, which include the following key pieces of information: 3XMTHREADINFO : The thread name, address information for the VM thread structures and Java thread object, the thread state, and thread priority. 3XMJAVALTHREAD : The Java thread ID and daemon status from the thread object. 3XMTHREADINFO1 : The native operating system thread ID, priority, scheduling policy, internal VM thread state, and VM thread flags. 3XMTHREADINFO2 : The native stack address range. 3XMTHREADINFO3 : Java callstack information ( 4XESTACKTRACE ) or Native call stack information ( 4XENATIVESTACK ). 5XESTACKTRACE : This line indicates whether locks were taken by a specific method. Java thread priorities are mapped to operating system priority values. Thread states are shown in the following table: Thread state value Status Description R Runnable The thread is able to run CW Condition Wait The thread is waiting S Suspended The thread is suspended by another thread Z Zombie The thread is destroyed P Parked The thread is parked by java.util.concurrent B Blocked The thread is waiting to obtain a lock For threads that are parked (P), blocked (B), or waiting (CW), an additional line ( 3XMTHREADBLOCK ) is included in the output that shows what the thread is parked on, blocked on, or waiting for.

SHARED CLASSES If the shared classes cache is enabled at run time, the information provided in a Java dump file describes settings that were used when creating the cache, together with summary information about the size and content of the cache. In the following example, the shared classes cache was created with a Class Debug Area ( -Xnolinenumbers=false ). Byte code instrumentation (BCI) is enabled, which is the default, and VMs sharing the cache are allowed to store classpaths, which is also the default. The Cache Summary shows a cache size ( 2SCLTEXTCSZ ) of 16776608 bytes, with a soft maximum size ( 2SCLTEXTSMB ) also of 16776608 bytes, which leaves 12691668 bytes of free space ( 2SCLTEXTFRB ). The size of the Class Debug Area ( 2SCLTEXTDAS ) is 1331200 bytes and only 11% of this space is used. In the Cache Memory Status subsection, the line 2SCLTEXTCMDT indicates the name and location of the shared cache and cr indicates that the cache is a 64-bit compressed references cache.

To simulate a crash caused by a bug in an application, this example calls a JNI method whose native implementation causes a crash. The Java callstack shows the call to the JNI native method ( JNIcrasher ), and the native callstack shows the point of failure. In this example, the native call stack does not include any function names to help you isolate the error in the native code. You can get this information from a system dump, which is usually produced alongside the Java dump. Open the system dump with the Dump viewer and use the info thread command to print the Java and native stack for the current thread. Java OutOfMemoryError In this scenario, the Java heap runs out of memory, causing an OutOfMemoryError , which automatically generates a Java dump file. The first section of the file (TITLE) tells you that a systhrow event triggered the Java dump as a result of an OOM ( java/lang/OutOfMemoryError ) for Java heap space. 0SECTION TITLE subcomponent dump routine NULL =============================== 1TICHARSET UTF-8 1TISIGINFO Dump Event \"systhrow\" (00040000) Detail \"java/lang/OutOfMemoryError\" \"Java heap space\" received 1TIDATETIME Date: 2018/09/14 at 15:29:42:709 1TINANOTIME System nanotime: 3635648876608448 1TIFILENAME Javacore filename: /home/cheesemp/test/javacore.20180914.152929.18885.0003.txt 1TIREQFLAGS Request Flags: 0x81 (exclusive+preempt) 1TIPREPSTATE Prep State: 0x104 (exclusive_vm_access+trace_disabled) The MEMINFO section records how much memory is allocated to the Java heap ( 1STHEAPTYPE Object Memory ), how much is in use, and how much is free. Solving your problem might be as simple as setting a larger heap size when you start your application. If you don't know what size the Java heap was set to, you might find that information in the ENVINFO section, which records the command line options that were used when the application started. Look or search for the 1CIUSERARGS UserArgs: string and review the entries recorded for all lines that start 2CIUSERARG . The Java heap size is set by the -Xmx option. If the size has not been set on the command line by -Xmx , the default value applies, which you can find in Default Settings . In this scenario the solution to the problem is not an adjustment to the Java heap size. Here is the MEMINFO section: 0SECTION MEMINFO subcomponent dump routine NULL ================================= NULL 1STHEAPTYPE Object Memory NULL id start end size space/region 1STHEAPSPACE 0xB6B49D20 -- -- -- Generational 1STHEAPREGION 0xB6B4A078 0x95750000 0xB5470000 0x1FD20000 Generational/Tenured Region 1STHEAPREGION 0xB6B49F10 0xB5470000 0xB54C0000 0x00050000 Generational/Nursery Region 1STHEAPREGION 0xB6B49DA8 0xB54C0000 0xB5750000 0x00290000 Generational/Nursery Region NULL 1STHEAPTOTAL Total memory: 536870912 (0x20000000) 1STHEAPINUSE Total memory in use: 302603160 (0x12095B98) 1STHEAPFREE Total memory free: 234267752 (0x0DF6A468) The output shows that only 56% of the Java heap is in use, so this suggests that the application is trying to do something sub-optimal. To investigate further you need to work out which thread was the current thread when the OOM occurred to see what it was trying to do. As in the previous scenario, you can find the current thread in the THREADS section. Here is an extract from the output: 0SECTION THREADS subcomponent dump routine NULL ================================= NULL 1XMPOOLINFO JVM Thread pool info: 2XMPOOLTOTAL Current total number of pooled threads: 16 2XMPOOLLIVE Current total number of live threads: 16 2XMPOOLDAEMON Current total number of live daemon threads: 15 NULL 1XMCURTHDINFO Current thread 3XMTHREADINFO \"main\" J9VMThread:0xB6B60C00, omrthread_t:0xB6B049D8, java/lang/Thread:0x95764520, state:R, prio=5 3XMJAVALTHREAD (java/lang/Thread getId:0x1, isDaemon:false) 3XMTHREADINFO1 (native thread ID:0x49C6, native priority:0x5, native policy:UNKNOWN, vmstate:R, vm thread flags:0x00001020) 3XMTHREADINFO2 (native stack address range from:0xB6CB5000, to:0xB74B6000, size:0x801000) 3XMCPUTIME CPU usage total: 8.537823831 secs, current category=\"Application\" 3XMHEAPALLOC Heap bytes allocated since last GC cycle=0 (0x0) 3XMTHREADINFO3 Java callstack: 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/StringBuffer.ensureCapacityImpl(StringBuffer.java:696) 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/StringBuffer.append(StringBuffer.java:486(Compiled Code)) 5XESTACKTRACE (entered lock: java/lang/StringBuffer@0x957645B8, entry count: 1) 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/StringBuffer.append(StringBuffer.java:428(Compiled Code)) 4XESTACKTRACE at HeapBreaker.main(HeapBreaker.java:34(Compiled Code)) 3XMTHREADINFO3 Native callstack: 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C535B3 [libj9prt29.so+0x3b5b3]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C36F3E [libj9prt29.so+0x1ef3e]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C5311E [libj9prt29.so+0x3b11e]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C53216 [libj9prt29.so+0x3b216]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C52CE3 [libj9prt29.so+0x3ace3]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C36F3E [libj9prt29.so+0x1ef3e]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C52C57 [libj9prt29.so+0x3ac57]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C4E9CD [libj9prt29.so+0x369cd]) 4XENATIVESTACK (0xB6C502FA [libj9prt29.so+0x382fa]) To simulate a Java OutOfMemoryError , this example application repeatedly appends characters to a StringBuffer object in an infinite loop. The Java callstack shows the HeapBreaker.main method appending characters ( java/lang/StringGuffer.append ) until the method java/lang/StringBuffer.ensureCapacityImpl() throws the OutOfMemoryError . StringBuffer objects are wrappers for character arrays ( char[] ) and when the capacity of the underlying array is reached, the contents are automatically copied into a new, larger array. The new array is created in the StringBuffer.ensureCapacity() method, which more or less doubles the size of the old array. In this scenario, the array takes up all the remaining space in the Java heap. The MEMINFO section of the Java dump file can also tell you when an unexpectedly large allocation request causes an OOM. Look for the GC History ( 1STGCHTYPE ) section, which details allocation requests that trigger GC activity. In the sample output you can see that a large allocation request ( requestedbytes=603979784 ) triggered a global GC. When the GC could not free up sufficient space in the heap to satisfy the request, the allocation failure generated the OOM. 1STGCHTYPE GC History 3STHSTTYPE 14:29:29:580239000 GMT j9mm.101 - J9AllocateIndexableObject() returning NULL! 0 bytes requested for object of class B6BBC300 from memory space 'Generational' id=B6B49D20 3STHSTTYPE 14:29:29:579916000 GMT j9mm.134 -

The next step in diagnosing the problem is to open the system dump that gets generated automatically when an OutOfMemoryError occurs. Open the dump with the Eclipse Memory Analyzer tool (MAT) and search for the StringBuffer object, which should provide further clues about what went wrong. A common example is seeing the same String duplicated over and over again, which might indicate that code is stuck in a loop. Note: If you want to use MAT to analyze your system dump, you must install the Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java (DTFJ) plugin in the Eclipse IDE. Select the following menu items: Help > Install New Software > Work with \"IBM Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java\" > If, unlike the previous scenario, you receive an OutOfMemoryError and the MEMINFO section shows that there is very little space left on the Java heap, the current thread information is typically not important. The current thread is simply the thread that happened to be current when the space ran out. In this situation you might want to increase your Java heap size. For help with this task, see How to do heap sizing . Native OutOfMemoryError In this scenario, the VM runs out of native memory. Native memory is memory that is used by the VM for storing all virtualized resources and data that it needs for VM operations. Native memory that is available to the VM process is limited by the operating system. The native memory available to the VM might also be subject to additional limits imposed by the operating system, for example Unix ulimits . When a NativeOutOfMemoryError occurs, a Java dump is generated by default. The first section of the file (TITLE) tells you that a systhrow event triggered the Java dump as a result of an OOM ( java/lang/OutOfMemoryError ) for native memory. 0SECTION TITLE subcomponent dump routine NULL =============================== 1TICHARSET UTF-8 1TISIGINFO Dump Event \"systhrow\" (00040000) Detail \"java/lang/OutOfMemoryError\" \"native memory exhausted\" received 1TIDATETIME Date: 2018/09/14 at 15:49:55:887 1TINANOTIME System nanotime: 3636862054495675 1TIFILENAME Javacore filename: /home/cheesemp/test/javacore.20180914.154814.19708.0003.txt 1TIREQFLAGS Request Flags: 0x81 (exclusive+preempt) 1TIPREPSTATE Prep State: 0x104 (exclusive_vm_access+trace_disabled) Sometimes, the current thread is responsible for causing the NativeOutOfMemoryError .

The Java callstack shows the transition from Java to native code ( sun/misc/Unsafe.allocateDBBMemory(Native Method) ), indicating a request for Direct Byte Buffer (DBB) storage. DBB storage is backed by native memory, with the Java heap containing only a reference to the native heap buffer. In this scenario, DBB storage is the likely culprit for this NativeOutOfMemoryError . The next step is to investigate the NATIVEMEMINFO section of the Java dump file, which reports the amount of memory used by the JRE process, broken down into component areas. 0SECTION NATIVEMEMINFO subcomponent dump routine NULL ================================= 0MEMUSER 1MEMUSER JRE: 3,166,386,688 bytes / 4388 allocations 1MEMUSER | 2MEMUSER +--VM: 563,176,824 bytes / 1518 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Classes: 3,104,416 bytes / 120 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Memory Manager (GC): 548,181,888 bytes / 398 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Java Heap: 536,932,352 bytes / 1 allocation 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Other: 11,249,536 bytes / 397 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Threads: 10,817,120 bytes / 147 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Java Stack: 115,584 bytes / 16 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Native Stack: 10,616,832 bytes / 17 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Other: 84,704 bytes / 114 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Trace: 163,688 bytes / 268 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--JVMTI: 17,320 bytes / 13 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--JNI: 23,296 bytes / 55 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Port Library: 8,576 bytes / 74 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Other: 860,520 bytes / 443 allocations 1MEMUSER | 2MEMUSER +--JIT: 3,744,728 bytes / 122 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--JIT Code Cache: 2,097,152 bytes / 1 allocation 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--JIT Data Cache: 524,336 bytes / 1 allocation 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Other: 1,123,240 bytes / 120 allocations 1MEMUSER | 2MEMUSER +--Class Libraries: 2,599,463,024 bytes / 2732 allocations 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--Harmony Class Libraries: 1,024 bytes / 1 allocation 2MEMUSER | | 3MEMUSER | +--VM Class Libraries: 2,599,462,000 bytes / 2731 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--sun.misc.Unsafe: 2,598,510,480 bytes / 2484 allocations 4MEMUSER | | | | 5MEMUSER | | | +--Direct Byte Buffers: 2,598,510,480 bytes / 2484 allocations 3MEMUSER | | | 4MEMUSER | | +--Other: 951,520 bytes / 247 allocations 1MEMUSER | 2MEMUSER +--Unknown: 2,112 bytes / 16 allocations NULL In the VM Class Libraries section, the amount of memory allocated for Direct Byte Buffers is shown. Because the NativeOutOfMemoryError was received on a small 32-bit system, a value of 2,598,510,480 bytes indicates that the operating system has run out of memory. On a larger UNIX system, the process might have run out of memory because of the ulimit setting. Increasing the value for ulimit might avoid the error, which you can do temporarily by setting ulimit -f unlimited in your current session. The theoretical maximum size for a 32-bit process is the size of the 32-bit address space, which is 4 GB. On most operating systems a portion of the address space for each process is used by the kernel, such that the real limit for 32-bit processes is actually significantly less than 4GB. As a result, running out of native memory with a 32-bit VM is quite common. The same 4 GB limit is also important if you are using a 64-bit VM with compressed references. In compressed references mode, all references to objects, classes, threads, and monitors are represented by 32-bit values for performance reasons, so these structures can be allocated only at 32-bit addresses. However, the operating system might place other allocations within this 4 GB of address space, and if this area becomes sufficiently full or fragmented, the VM throws a native NativeOutOfMemoryError error. These errors typically occur when the VM tries to create a new thread or load a class. The Current Thread History section should contain more information about what the thread was doing at the VM level when the NativeOutOfMemoryError error occurred. You can usually avoid this type of problem by using the -Xmcrs option to reserve a contiguous area of memory within the lowest 4GB of memory at VM startup. Another common cause of a NativeOutOfMemoryError is when an application loads duplicate classes. Classes are allocated outside of the Java heap in native memory. If the value reported for Classes in the NATIVEMEMINFO section is very large, duplicate classes might be the cause of your problem. The Eclipse Memory Analyzer Tool (MAT) can tell you if you have duplicate classes by using the Class Loader Explorer feature. Because a system dump is automatically generated as well as a Java dump in response to a NativeOutOfMemoryError , simply open the system dump in MAT to continue your diagnosis. Deadlock Deadlocks occur when two threads attempt to synchronize on an object and lock an instance of a class. When this happens, your application stops responding and hangs. Generating a Java dump file will quickly tell you whether you have a deadlock situation. Trigger the Java dump by sending a SIGQUIT signal ( kill -3 ) to the VM. The VM can detect the most common types of deadlock scenario involving Java monitors. If this type of deadlock is detected, information is provided in the LOCKS section. More complex deadlocks, including those that involve a mixture of native mutexes and Java monitors, are not detected. Here is the output from the code that was used to cause a common deadlock scenario: NULL 1LKDEADLOCK Deadlock detected !!!

Because Worker Thread 1 is also waiting for Worker Thread 2 , there is a deadlock. The next place to look is the output for Java and native stacks, in the THREADS section.

You can identify this problem by looking at verbose GC output. Collect this output by specifying the -verbose:gc option. Deadlock situations can also manifest themselves as hangs. For more information on diagnosing this type of problem from a Java dump, see the deadlock scenario. If you have eliminated verbose GC activity and deadlocks, another common hang scenario involves threads that compete and wait for Java object locks. This type of problem can usually be diagnosed by examining a Java dump. The simplest hang scenario involving Java object locks is where a thread acquires a lock that other threads are waiting for, but it doesn't release the lock for some reason. The first place to look in the Java dump output is the LOCKS section. This section lists all the monitors and shows which threads have acquired a lock and which threads are waiting. If the hang is caused by a thread not releasing a lock that other threads need, you can see a list of waiting threads in the output. In this example scenario, the Java dump LOCKS section shows that Worker Thread 0 ( 3LKMONOBJECT ) has acquired a lock and there are 19 other worker threads waiting to obtain the lock.

The best place to start is the stack trace for this thread, which you can find by searching on the thread name or J9VMThread ID in the THREADS section. The following extract shows the details for \"Worker Thread 0\" (J9VMThread:0x92A3EC00) : NULL 3XMTHREADINFO \"Worker Thread 0\" J9VMThread:0x92A3EC00, omrthread_t:0x92A3C280, java/lang/Thread:0xB56668B8, state:CW, prio=5 3XMJAVALTHREAD (java/lang/Thread getId:0x13, isDaemon:false) 3XMTHREADINFO1 (native thread ID:0x511F, native priority:0x5, native policy:UNKNOWN, vmstate:CW, vm thread flags:0x00000401) 3XMTHREADINFO2 (native stack address range from:0x9297E000, to:0x929BF000, size:0x41000) 3XMCPUTIME CPU usage total: 0.000211878 secs, current category=\"Application\" 3XMHEAPALLOC Heap bytes allocated since last GC cycle=0 (0x0) 3XMTHREADINFO3 Java callstack: 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/Thread.sleep(Native Method) 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/Thread.sleep(Thread.java:941) 4XESTACKTRACE at WorkerThread.doWork(HangTest.java:37) 4XESTACKTRACE at WorkerThread.run(HangTest.java:31) 5XESTACKTRACE (entered lock: java/lang/Object@0xB56658D8, entry count: 1) In the last line of this output you can see where the thread acquired the lock. Working up from this line, you can see that WorkerThread.run was called, which in turn called WorkerThread.doWork . The stack shows that the thread then entered a call to java/lang/Thread.sleep in HangTest.java on line 37, which is preventing the thread from completing its work and releasing the lock. In this example the sleep call was added to induce a hang, but in real-world scenarios the cause could be any blocking operation, such as reading from an input stream or socket. Another possibility is that the thread is waiting for another lock owned by yet another thread. It is important to remember that each Java dump represents a single snapshot in time. You should generate at least three Java dumps separated by a short pause, for example 30 seconds, and compare the output. This comparison tells you whether the threads involved are stuck in a fixed state or whether they are moving. In this example, the threads do not move and the investigation needs to focus on the logic in WorkerThread.doWork to understand why Worker Thread 0 entered the java/lang/Thread.sleep call. Another common scenario is where each Java dump shows a number of threads waiting for a lock owned by another thread, but the list of waiting threads and the lock-owning thread change over time. In this case the cause is likely to be a bottleneck caused by thread contention, where the threads are continually competing for the same lock. In severe cases, the lock is held only for a small amount of time but there are lots of threads trying to obtain it. Because more time is spent handling the lock and scheduling the thread than executing application code, the degradation in performance is manifested as a hang. Thread contention is usually caused by an application design problem. You can use a similar approach to the one used in this scenario to determime which lines of code are responsible for the contention.","title":"Java dump"},{"location":"dump_javadump/#java-dump","text":"Java dumps, sometimes referred to as Java cores , are produced when the VM ends unexpectedly because of an operating system signal, OutOfMemoryError , or a user-initiated keystroke combination. You can also generate a Java dump by calling the Dump API programmatically from your application or specifying the -Xdump:java option on the command line. If your Java application crashes or hangs, Java dumps can provide useful information to help you diagnose the root cause. If your application crashes, Java dumps are generated automatically for the following types of failure: the VM receives an unexpected signal or an assertion failure the VM runs out of memory If your application hangs, you can trigger the generation of a Java dump by sending a SIGQUIT signal ( kill -3 ) to the VM. Note: On Windows, if you started the VM in a console window you can force the VM to produce a Java dump in response to a SIGBREAK signal (Ctrl-Break keyboard combination). If you didn't start in a console window there is no equivalent to a Linux kill command on Windows for sending signals.

To simulate a crash caused by a bug in an application, this example calls a JNI method whose native implementation causes a crash. The Java callstack shows the call to the JNI native method ( JNIcrasher ), and the native callstack shows the point of failure. In this example, the native call stack does not include any function names to help you isolate the error in the native code. You can get this information from a system dump, which is usually produced alongside the Java dump.

Solving your problem might be as simple as setting a larger heap size when you start your application. If you don't know what size the Java heap was set to, you might find that information in the ENVINFO section, which records the command line options that were used when the application started. Look or search for the 1CIUSERARGS UserArgs: string and review the entries recorded for all lines that start 2CIUSERARG . The Java heap size is set by the -Xmx option. If the size has not been set on the command line by -Xmx , the default value applies, which you can find in Default Settings . In this scenario the solution to the problem is not an adjustment to the Java heap size. Here is the MEMINFO section: 0SECTION MEMINFO subcomponent dump routine NULL ================================= NULL 1STHEAPTYPE Object Memory NULL id start end size space/region 1STHEAPSPACE 0xB6B49D20 -- -- -- Generational 1STHEAPREGION 0xB6B4A078 0x95750000 0xB5470000 0x1FD20000 Generational/Tenured Region 1STHEAPREGION 0xB6B49F10 0xB5470000 0xB54C0000 0x00050000 Generational/Nursery Region 1STHEAPREGION 0xB6B49DA8 0xB54C0000 0xB5750000 0x00290000 Generational/Nursery Region NULL 1STHEAPTOTAL Total memory: 536870912 (0x20000000) 1STHEAPINUSE Total memory in use: 302603160 (0x12095B98) 1STHEAPFREE Total memory free: 234267752 (0x0DF6A468) The output shows that only 56% of the Java heap is in use, so this suggests that the application is trying to do something sub-optimal. To investigate further you need to work out which thread was the current thread when the OOM occurred to see what it was trying to do. As in the previous scenario, you can find the current thread in the THREADS section.

The Java callstack shows the HeapBreaker.main method appending characters ( java/lang/StringGuffer.append ) until the method java/lang/StringBuffer.ensureCapacityImpl() throws the OutOfMemoryError . StringBuffer objects are wrappers for character arrays ( char[] ) and when the capacity of the underlying array is reached, the contents are automatically copied into a new, larger array. The new array is created in the StringBuffer.ensureCapacity() method, which more or less doubles the size of the old array. In this scenario, the array takes up all the remaining space in the Java heap. The MEMINFO section of the Java dump file can also tell you when an unexpectedly large allocation request causes an OOM. Look for the GC History ( 1STGCHTYPE ) section, which details allocation requests that trigger GC activity. In the sample output you can see that a large allocation request ( requestedbytes=603979784 ) triggered a global GC. When the GC could not free up sufficient space in the heap to satisfy the request, the allocation failure generated the OOM. 1STGCHTYPE GC History 3STHSTTYPE 14:29:29:580239000 GMT j9mm.101 - J9AllocateIndexableObject() returning NULL! 0 bytes requested for object of class B6BBC300 from memory space 'Generational' id=B6B49D20 3STHSTTYPE 14:29:29:579916000 GMT j9mm.134 -

The next step in diagnosing the problem is to open the system dump that gets generated automatically when an OutOfMemoryError occurs. Open the dump with the Eclipse Memory Analyzer tool (MAT) and search for the StringBuffer object, which should provide further clues about what went wrong. A common example is seeing the same String duplicated over and over again, which might indicate that code is stuck in a loop. Note: If you want to use MAT to analyze your system dump, you must install the Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java (DTFJ) plugin in the Eclipse IDE. Select the following menu items: Help > Install New Software > Work with \"IBM Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java\" > If, unlike the previous scenario, you receive an OutOfMemoryError and the MEMINFO section shows that there is very little space left on the Java heap, the current thread information is typically not important. The current thread is simply the thread that happened to be current when the space ran out. In this situation you might want to increase your Java heap size.

DBB storage is backed by native memory, with the Java heap containing only a reference to the native heap buffer. In this scenario, DBB storage is the likely culprit for this NativeOutOfMemoryError .

Because the NativeOutOfMemoryError was received on a small 32-bit system, a value of 2,598,510,480 bytes indicates that the operating system has run out of memory. On a larger UNIX system, the process might have run out of memory because of the ulimit setting. Increasing the value for ulimit might avoid the error, which you can do temporarily by setting ulimit -f unlimited in your current session. The theoretical maximum size for a 32-bit process is the size of the 32-bit address space, which is 4 GB. On most operating systems a portion of the address space for each process is used by the kernel, such that the real limit for 32-bit processes is actually significantly less than 4GB. As a result, running out of native memory with a 32-bit VM is quite common. The same 4 GB limit is also important if you are using a 64-bit VM with compressed references. In compressed references mode, all references to objects, classes, threads, and monitors are represented by 32-bit values for performance reasons, so these structures can be allocated only at 32-bit addresses. However, the operating system might place other allocations within this 4 GB of address space, and if this area becomes sufficiently full or fragmented, the VM throws a native NativeOutOfMemoryError error. These errors typically occur when the VM tries to create a new thread or load a class. The Current Thread History section should contain more information about what the thread was doing at the VM level when the NativeOutOfMemoryError error occurred. You can usually avoid this type of problem by using the -Xmcrs option to reserve a contiguous area of memory within the lowest 4GB of memory at VM startup. Another common cause of a NativeOutOfMemoryError is when an application loads duplicate classes. Classes are allocated outside of the Java heap in native memory. If the value reported for Classes in the NATIVEMEMINFO section is very large, duplicate classes might be the cause of your problem. The Eclipse Memory Analyzer Tool (MAT) can tell you if you have duplicate classes by using the Class Loader Explorer feature. Because a system dump is automatically generated as well as a Java dump in response to a NativeOutOfMemoryError , simply open the system dump in MAT to continue your diagnosis.","title":"Native OutOfMemoryError"},{"location":"dump_javadump/#deadlock","text":"Deadlocks occur when two threads attempt to synchronize on an object and lock an instance of a class. When this happens, your application stops responding and hangs. Generating a Java dump file will quickly tell you whether you have a deadlock situation. Trigger the Java dump by sending a SIGQUIT signal ( kill -3 ) to the VM. The VM can detect the most common types of deadlock scenario involving Java monitors. If this type of deadlock is detected, information is provided in the LOCKS section. More complex deadlocks, including those that involve a mixture of native mutexes and Java monitors, are not detected. Here is the output from the code that was used to cause a common deadlock scenario: NULL 1LKDEADLOCK Deadlock detected !!!

You can identify this problem by looking at verbose GC output. Collect this output by specifying the -verbose:gc option. Deadlock situations can also manifest themselves as hangs. For more information on diagnosing this type of problem from a Java dump, see the deadlock scenario. If you have eliminated verbose GC activity and deadlocks, another common hang scenario involves threads that compete and wait for Java object locks. This type of problem can usually be diagnosed by examining a Java dump. The simplest hang scenario involving Java object locks is where a thread acquires a lock that other threads are waiting for, but it doesn't release the lock for some reason. The first place to look in the Java dump output is the LOCKS section. This section lists all the monitors and shows which threads have acquired a lock and which threads are waiting. If the hang is caused by a thread not releasing a lock that other threads need, you can see a list of waiting threads in the output. In this example scenario, the Java dump LOCKS section shows that Worker Thread 0 ( 3LKMONOBJECT ) has acquired a lock and there are 19 other worker threads waiting to obtain the lock.

The best place to start is the stack trace for this thread, which you can find by searching on the thread name or J9VMThread ID in the THREADS section. The following extract shows the details for \"Worker Thread 0\" (J9VMThread:0x92A3EC00) : NULL 3XMTHREADINFO \"Worker Thread 0\" J9VMThread:0x92A3EC00, omrthread_t:0x92A3C280, java/lang/Thread:0xB56668B8, state:CW, prio=5 3XMJAVALTHREAD (java/lang/Thread getId:0x13, isDaemon:false) 3XMTHREADINFO1 (native thread ID:0x511F, native priority:0x5, native policy:UNKNOWN, vmstate:CW, vm thread flags:0x00000401) 3XMTHREADINFO2 (native stack address range from:0x9297E000, to:0x929BF000, size:0x41000) 3XMCPUTIME CPU usage total: 0.000211878 secs, current category=\"Application\" 3XMHEAPALLOC Heap bytes allocated since last GC cycle=0 (0x0) 3XMTHREADINFO3 Java callstack: 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/Thread.sleep(Native Method) 4XESTACKTRACE at java/lang/Thread.sleep(Thread.java:941) 4XESTACKTRACE at WorkerThread.doWork(HangTest.java:37) 4XESTACKTRACE at WorkerThread.run(HangTest.java:31) 5XESTACKTRACE (entered lock: java/lang/Object@0xB56658D8, entry count: 1) In the last line of this output you can see where the thread acquired the lock. Working up from this line, you can see that WorkerThread.run was called, which in turn called WorkerThread.doWork . The stack shows that the thread then entered a call to java/lang/Thread.sleep in HangTest.java on line 37, which is preventing the thread from completing its work and releasing the lock. In this example the sleep call was added to induce a hang, but in real-world scenarios the cause could be any blocking operation, such as reading from an input stream or socket. Another possibility is that the thread is waiting for another lock owned by yet another thread. It is important to remember that each Java dump represents a single snapshot in time. You should generate at least three Java dumps separated by a short pause, for example 30 seconds, and compare the output. This comparison tells you whether the threads involved are stuck in a fixed state or whether they are moving. In this example, the threads do not move and the investigation needs to focus on the logic in WorkerThread.doWork to understand why Worker Thread 0 entered the java/lang/Thread.sleep call. Another common scenario is where each Java dump shows a number of threads waiting for a lock owned by another thread, but the list of waiting threads and the lock-owning thread change over time. In this case the cause is likely to be a bottleneck caused by thread contention, where the threads are continually competing for the same lock. In severe cases, the lock is held only for a small amount of time but there are lots of threads trying to obtain it. Because more time is spent handling the lock and scheduling the thread than executing application code, the degradation in performance is manifested as a hang. Thread contention is usually caused by an application design problem. You can use a similar approach to the one used in this scenario to determime which lines of code are responsible for the contention.","title":"Hang"},{"location":"dump_systemdump/","text":"System dump System dumps, often known as core dumps , are platform-specific and contain a raw binary dump of the process memory.

These components operate on an area of memory that is reserved for VM processing called the Java heap. The Allocator assigns areas of the Java heap for Java objects. Objects are considered as live when they have a chain of references to them that start from root references, such as those found in thread stacks. When that reference or pointer no longer exists, the objects are considered as garbage . The role of the Garbage Collector is to manage the storage in the Java heap and reclaim memory by removing garbage. The Allocator The Allocator is a component of memory management that is typically overshadowed by the task of garbage collection. However, it is a critical, if not small part, of the overall process. The Allocator manages pools of free memory and how the free memory is consumed. It is also responsible for allocating areas of storage in the Java heap for objects at the request of applications, class libraries, or the VM. Every allocation requires a heap lock to stop concurrent threads trying to access the same area of memory at the same time. When an object is allocated, the heap lock is released. If there is insufficient space to allocate the object, allocation fails, the heap lock is released, and the GC is called. If the GC manages to recover some space on the heap, the Allocator can resume operations. If the GC does not recover enough space, it returns an OutOfMemoryError exception. Acquiring a heap lock for every allocation would be an intensive operation with a knock on impact to performance. To get around this problem, small objects are allocated to thread local heaps (TLH). Thread local heaps (TLH) To improve performance, allocation caches are reserved in the heap for different threads. These allocation caches are known as thread local heaps (TLH) and allow each thread to allocate memory from its cache without acquiring the heap lock. A TLH is typically used for small objects of less than 512 bytes (768 bytes on 64-bit VMs) although larger objects can be allocated from the cache if there is sufficient space. If a thread allocates a lot of objects, the allocator gives that thread a larger TLH to reduce contention on the heap lock. A TLH is predefined with an initial default size of 2 KB. On every TLH refresh, the requested size for that thread is increased by an increment (default 4 KB). The requested size can grow up to a predefined maximum (default 128 KB). After every GC cycle, the TLH requested size for each thread is reduced, sometimes by as much as 50%, to take account of threads that reduce their allocation rate and no longer need large TLHs. For very inactive threads, the requested size can even drop below the initial value, down to the predefined minimum (512/768 bytes). For very active threads, the maximum TLH requested size might be reached before the next GC occurs. Larger TLHs can help reduce heap lock contention, but might also reduce heap utilisation and increase heap fragmentation. The following options control the requested TLH size: -Xgc:tlhMaximumSize=<bytes> -Xgc:tlhInitialSize=<bytes> -Xgc:tlhIncrementSize=<bytes> Typically, when the maximum TLH size is increased, you should also increase the increment proportionally, so that active threads can reach the maximum requested TLH size more quickly. Garbage collection To prevent applications running out of memory, objects in the Java heap that are no longer required must be reclaimed. This process is known as garbage collection (GC). When garbage is collected, the garbage collector must obtain exclusive access to the heap, which causes an application to pause while the clean up is done. This pause is often referred to as a stop-the-world pause because an application must halt until the process completes. In general, the first step in the GC process is to mark the objects that are reachable, which means they are still in use. The next step is to sweep away the unmarked objects to reclaim memory. The last step, which isn't always required unless the heap has become very fragmented, is to compact the heap. Eclipse OpenJ9 has a number of GC policies designed around different types of applications and workloads. Picking the right policy very much depends on your usage and performance goals. Generational Concurrent policy If you have a transactional application, with many short lived objects, the Generational Concurrent ( -Xgcpolicy:gencon ) GC policy is probably best suited, which aims to minimize GC pause times without compromising throughput. This is the default policy employed by the VM, so if you want to use it you don't need to specify it on the command line when you start your application. With the gencon policy, the Java heap is divided into two main areas, the nursery area, where new objects are created and the tenure area, where objects are moved if they have reached tenure age . The nursery area is subdivided into two further areas, the allocate space and the survivor space. The GC process is illustrated in the following diagram, which shows a sequence of 4 main events: Objects are created in the allocate space. The allocate space is full. A local GC scavenge process runs and reachable objects are either copied into the survivor space or into the tenure area if they have reached tenure age . Any objects that can't be reached are left untouched and subsequently cleared. The allocate and survivor spaces swap roles. The original survivor space becomes the allocate space where new objects are created, and the original allocate space becomes the survivor space ready for the next local GC scavenge process. The relative sizes of the allocate and survivor spaces are dynamically adjusted by a technique called tilting . When the nursery area is first created, it is evenly divided between the allocate and survivor spaces. If, after a GC scavenge process is run, the amount of space required for the survivor area is comparatively small, the boundary between the two spaces is adjusted by tilting . For example, if the survivor space requires only 10% of the nursery area, the tilt ratio is adjusted to give 90% of the nursery area to the allocate space. With more space available for new objects, garbage collection can be delayed. The tenure age of an object is determined by the VM and reflects the number of times that an object has been copied between the allocate space and the survivor space. The age is in the range 1 - 14 and is adjusted dynamically by the VM depending on the overall amount of space that is used in the nursery area . For example, if an object has a tenure age of 5, it has been copied backwards and forwards between allocate and survivor spaces 5 times. If the VM sets a tenure age of 5 based on the percentage of space remaining in the nursery area, the next scavenge moves the object from the nursery to the tenure area. You can set an initial tenure age with the -Xgc:scvTenureAge option. You can also prevent the VM dynamically adjusting the tenure age by setting the Xgc:scvNoAdaptiveTenure option so that the intial age is maintained throughout the run time of the VM. Within the tenure area, new objects are allocated into the small object area (SOA), which is illustrated in the earlier diagram (see 3.). A large object area (LOA) is set aside for objects greater than 64 KB that cannot be allocated into the SOA to minimize fragmentation. The LOA is allocated by default but is reduced and removed after a few GC cycles if it isn't populated. To prevent the creation of an LOA, you can specify the -Xnoloa option on the command line when you start your application. When the tenure area is close to full a global GC is triggered. The local GC scavenge reduces pause times by freqently reclaiming memory in the nursery area which, for a transactional application with many short-lived objects, has the most recyclable space. However, over time the tenure area might become full. So, whilst a local GC scavenge process is operating on the nursery area, a concurrent global GC process also runs alongside normal program execution to mark and remove unreachable objects from the tenure area. These two GC approaches combine to provide a good trade-off between shorter pause times and consistent throughput. A special mode of the gencon policy is known as Concurrent Scavenge ( -Xgc:concurrentScavenge ), which aims to minimize the time spent in stop-the-world pauses by collecting nursery garbage in parallel with running application threads. This mode can be enabled with hardware-based support and software-based support. Hardware-based support: (Linux on IBM Z\u00ae and z/OS\u00ae) This mode works on the IBM z14\u2122 and later mainframe system with the Guarded Storage (GS) Facility. The GS Facility provides hardware-based support to detect when potentially stale references to objects are accessed by an application. This means that the garbage collector can start processing objects in parts of the heap without halting an application because the GS Facility is on hand to spot accesses to an object and send a notification. The object that was ready to be swept away can be moved, and references to it can be reset. You can read more about this mode in the following blog posts: Reducing Garbage Collection pause times with Concurrent Scavenge and the Guarded Storage Facility How Concurrent Scavenge using the Guarded Storage Facility Works Software-based support: (64-bit: Linux on (x86-64, POWER, IBM Z\u00ae), AIX\u00ae, and z/OS\u00ae) With software-based support, Concurrent Scavenge can be enabled without any pre-requisite hardware although the performance throughput is not as good as hardware-based support. For more information about enabling Concurrent Scavenge, see the -Xgc:concurrentScavenge option. Other policies OpenJ9 has the following alternative GC policies: -Xgcpolicy:balanced divides the Java heap into regions, which are individually managed to reduce the maximum pause time on large heaps and increase the efficiency of garbage collection. The aim of the policy is to avoid global collections by matching object allocation and survival rates. If you have problems with application pause times that are caused by global garbage collections, particularly compactions, this policy might improve application performance, particularly on large systems that have Non-Uniform Memory Architecture (NUMA) characteristics (x86 and POWER platforms). -Xgcpolicy:metronome is designed for applications that require precise response times. Garbage collection occurs in small interruptible steps to avoid stop-the-world pauses. This policy is available only on x86 Linux and AIX platforms. -Xgcpolicy:nogc handles only memory allocation and heap expansion, but doesn't reclaim any memory. The GC impact on runtime performance is therefore minimized, but if the available Java heap becomes exhausted, an OutOfMemoryError exception is triggered and the VM stops. -Xgcpolicy:optavgpause uses concurrent mark and sweep phases, which means that pause times are reduced when compared to optthruput, but at the expense of some performance throughput. -Xgcpolicy:optthruput is optimized for throughput by disabling the concurrent mark phase, which means that applications will stop for long pauses while garbage collection takes place. You might consider using this policy when high application throughput, rather than short garbage collection pauses, is the main performance goal. For more information about these garbage collection policies and options, see -Xgcpolicy . Troubleshooting You can diagnose problems with garbage collection operations by turning on verbose garbage collection logging. By default, the information is printed to STDERR but can be redirected to a file by specifying the -Xverbosegclog option. The log files contain detailed information about all operations, including initialization, stop-the-world processing, finalization, reference processing, and allocation failures. For more information, see Verbose garbage collection If verbose logs do not provide enough information to help you diagnose GC problems, you can use GC trace to analyze operations at a more granular level.

DTFJ works with data from a system dump or a Java dump. On Linux and AIX\u00ae operating systems, you can get more information from a system dump if you also have copies of executable files and libraries. You can run the jextract utility provided in the SDK to collect these files into a single archive for use in subsequent problem diagnosis. For more information, see Dump extractor . The DTFJ API helps diagnostic tools access the following information: Memory locations stored in the dump (System dumps only) Relationships between memory locations and Java internals (System dumps only) Java threads running in the VM Native threads held in the dump (System dumps only) Java classes and their class loaders that were present Java objects that were present in the heap (System dumps only) Java monitors and the objects and threads they are associated with Details of the workstation on which the dump was produced (System dumps only) Details of the Java version that was being used The command line that launched the VM If your DTFJ application requests information that is not available in the Java dump, the API will return null or throw a DataUnavailable exception. You might need to adapt DTFJ applications written to process system dumps to make them work with Java dumps. DTFJ is implemented in pure Java and tools written using DTFJ can be cross-platform. Therefore, you can analyze a dump taken from one workstation on another (remote and more convenient) machine. For example, a dump produced on an AIX\u00ae Power\u00ae system can be analyzed on a Windows laptop. API documentation for the DTFJ interface can be found here: Application programming reference: DTFJ Using the DTFJ interface To create applications that use DTFJ, you must use the DTFJ interface. Implementations of this interface have been written that work with system dumps and Java dumps. The diagram that follows illustrates the DTFJ interface. The starting point for working with a dump is to obtain an Image instance by using the ImageFactory class supplied with the concrete implementation of the API. Working with a system dump The following example shows how to work with a system dump. In this example, the only section of code that ties the dump to a particular implementation of DTFJ is the generation of the factory class. Change the factory if you want to use a different implementation. If there is a problem with the file that is passed to the getImage() method, an IOException is thrown and an appropriate message is issued. If a missing file is passed to the example shown, the following output is produced: Could not find/use required file(s) java.io.FileNotFoundException: core_file.xml (The system cannot find the file specified.) at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method) at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:135) at com.ibm.dtfj.image.j9.ImageFactory.getImage(ImageFactory.java:47) at com.ibm.dtfj.image.j9.ImageFactory.getImage(ImageFactory.java:35) at DTFJEX1.main(DTFJEX1.java:23)Copy In this case, the DTFJ implementation is expecting a dump file to exist. Different errors are caught if the file existed but was not recognized as a valid dump file. Example of working with a system dump import java.io.File; import java.util.Iterator; import java.io.IOException; import com.ibm.dtfj.image.CorruptData; import com.ibm.dtfj.image.Image; import com.ibm.dtfj.image.ImageFactory; public class DTFJEX1 { public static void main(String[] args) { Image image = null; if (args.length > 0) { File f = new File(args[0]); try { Class factoryClass = Class.forName(\"com.ibm.dtfj.image.j9.ImageFactory\"); ImageFactory factory = (ImageFactory) factoryClass.newInstance(); image = factory.getImage(f); } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) { System.err.println(\"Could not find DTFJ factory class\"); e.printStackTrace(System.err); } catch (IllegalAccessException e) { System.err.println(\"IllegalAccessException for DTFJ factory class\"); e.printStackTrace(System.err); } catch (InstantiationException e) { System.err.println(\"Could not instantiate DTFJ factory class\"); e.printStackTrace(System.err); } catch (IOException e) { System.err.println(\"Could not find/use required file(s)\"); e.printStackTrace(System.err); } } else { System.err.println(\"No filename specified\"); } if (image == null) { return; } Iterator asIt = image.getAddressSpaces(); int count = 0; while (asIt.hasNext()) { Object tempObj = asIt.next(); if (tempObj instanceof CorruptData) { System.err.println(\"Address Space object is corrupt: \" + (CorruptData) tempObj); } else { count++; } } System.out.println(\"The number of address spaces is: \" + count); } } Working with a Java dump To work with a Java dump, change the factory class to com.ibm.dtfj.image.javacore.JCImageFactory and pass the Java dump file to the getImage() method. Example of working with a Java dump import java.io.File; import java.util.Iterator; import java.io.IOException; import com.ibm.dtfj.image.CorruptData; import com.ibm.dtfj.image.Image; import com.ibm.dtfj.image.ImageFactory; public class DTFJEX2 { public static void main(String[] args) { Image image=null; if (args.length > 0) { File javacoreFile = new File(args[0]); try { Class factoryClass = Class.forName(\"com.ibm.dtfj.image.javacore.JCImageFactory\"); ImageFactory factory = (ImageFactory) factoryClass.newInstance(); image = factory.getImage(javacoreFile); } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) { System.err.println(\"Could not find DTFJ factory class\"); e.printStackTrace(System.err); } catch (IllegalAccessException e) { System.err.println(\"IllegalAccessException for DTFJ factory class\"); e.printStackTrace(System.err); } catch (InstantiationException e) { System.err.println(\"Could not instantiate DTFJ factory class\"); e.printStackTrace(System.err); } catch (IOException e) { System.err.println(\"Could not find/use required file(s)\"); e.printStackTrace(System.err); } } else { System.err.println(\"No filename specified\"); } if (image == null) { return; } Iterator asIt = image.getAddressSpaces(); int count = 0; while (asIt.hasNext()) { Object tempObj = asIt.next(); if (tempObj instanceof CorruptData) { System.err.println(\"Address Space object is corrupt: \" + (CorruptData) tempObj); } else { count++; } } System.out.println(\"The number of address spaces is: \" + count); } } Analyze the dump After you have obtained an Image instance, you can begin analyzing the dump. The Image instance is the second instance in the class hierarchy for DTFJ illustrated by the following diagram: Some things to note from the diagram: The DTFJ interface is separated into two parts: classes with names that start with Image (the dump, a sequence of bytes with different contents on different platforms) and classes with names that start with Java (the Java internal knowledge). Image and Java classes are linked using a ManagedRuntime class (which is extended by JavaRuntime ). An Image object contains one ImageAddressSpace object (or, on z/OS\u00ae, possibly more). An ImageAddressSpace object contains one ImageProcess object (or, on z/OS, possibly more). Conceptually, you can apply the Image model to any program running with the ImageProcess . For the purposes of this document discussion is limited to the OpenJ9 virtual machine implementations. There is a link from a JavaThread object to its corresponding ImageThread object. Use this link to find out about native code associated with a Java thread, for example JNI functions that have been called from Java. If a JavaThread was not running Java code when the dump was taken, the JavaThread object has no JavaStackFrame objects. In these cases, use the link to the corresponding ImageThread object to find out what native code was running in that thread. This situation is typically the case with the JIT compilation thread and Garbage Collection threads. The DTFJ interface enables you to obtain information about native memory. Native memory is memory requested from the operating system using library functions such as malloc() and mmap() . When the Java runtime allocates native memory, the memory is associated with a high-level memory category. For more information about native memory detailed in a Java dump, see Java dump: NATIVEMEMINFO DTFJ example application This example is a fully working DTFJ application. Many DTFJ applications will follow a similar model.

In a production environment, you use the techniques illustrated in the previous examples under Working with a system dump and Working with a Java dump . In the example, the program iterates through every available Java thread and checks whether it is equal to any of the available image threads. When they are found to be equal, the program displays the following message: \"Found a match\". The example demonstrates: How to iterate down through the class hierarchy. How to handle CorruptData objects from the iterators.

The DTFJ API helps diagnostic tools access the following information: Memory locations stored in the dump (System dumps only) Relationships between memory locations and Java internals (System dumps only) Java threads running in the VM Native threads held in the dump (System dumps only) Java classes and their class loaders that were present Java objects that were present in the heap (System dumps only) Java monitors and the objects and threads they are associated with Details of the workstation on which the dump was produced (System dumps only) Details of the Java version that was being used The command line that launched the VM If your DTFJ application requests information that is not available in the Java dump, the API will return null or throw a DataUnavailable exception. You might need to adapt DTFJ applications written to process system dumps to make them work with Java dumps. DTFJ is implemented in pure Java and tools written using DTFJ can be cross-platform. Therefore, you can analyze a dump taken from one workstation on another (remote and more convenient) machine. For example, a dump produced on an AIX\u00ae Power\u00ae system can be analyzed on a Windows laptop.

The Image instance is the second instance in the class hierarchy for DTFJ illustrated by the following diagram: Some things to note from the diagram: The DTFJ interface is separated into two parts: classes with names that start with Image (the dump, a sequence of bytes with different contents on different platforms) and classes with names that start with Java (the Java internal knowledge). Image and Java classes are linked using a ManagedRuntime class (which is extended by JavaRuntime ). An Image object contains one ImageAddressSpace object (or, on z/OS\u00ae, possibly more). An ImageAddressSpace object contains one ImageProcess object (or, on z/OS, possibly more). Conceptually, you can apply the Image model to any program running with the ImageProcess . For the purposes of this document discussion is limited to the OpenJ9 virtual machine implementations. There is a link from a JavaThread object to its corresponding ImageThread object. Use this link to find out about native code associated with a Java thread, for example JNI functions that have been called from Java. If a JavaThread was not running Java code when the dump was taken, the JavaThread object has no JavaStackFrame objects. In these cases, use the link to the corresponding ImageThread object to find out what native code was running in that thread. This situation is typically the case with the JIT compilation thread and Garbage Collection threads. The DTFJ interface enables you to obtain information about native memory. Native memory is memory requested from the operating system using library functions such as malloc() and mmap() . When the Java runtime allocates native memory, the memory is associated with a high-level memory category.

It replaces both the Java Virtual Machine Debug Interface (JVMDI) and Java Virtual Machine Profiler Interface (JVMPI). Overview The JVMTI allows third parties to develop debugging, profiling, and monitoring tools for the VM. The interface contains mechanisms for the agent to notify the VM about the kinds of information it requires, and also provides a means of receiving relevant notifications. Several agents can be attached to a VM at any one time. JVMTI agents can be loaded at startup using short or long forms of the command-line option: -agentlib:<agent-lib-name>=<options> or -agentpath:<path-to-agent>=<options> In the example that follows (see Sample JVMTI agent ), the directory containing the jdwp library is assumed to be on the library path. If you require a specific library, such as jdwp , with your JVMTI agent, you can specify the path at startup, for example: -agentlib:jdwp=<options> For more information about JVMTI, see https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/management/index.html . For a guide about writing a JVMTI agent, see http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/javase/jvmti-136367.html . OpenJ9 extensions OpenJ9 extensions to the JVMTI allow a JVMTI agent to query or automatically trigger operations in the VM, including the following tasks: Task OpenJ9 extensions Get the OS thread ID GetOSThreadID Query, set, and reset the VM dump options QueryVmDump , SetVmDump , ResetVmDump Trigger a VM dump, and monitor JVMTI event functions when VM dumps start and end TriggerVmDump , VMDumpStart , VMDumpEnd Set VM trace options SetVmTrace Subscribe to and unsubscribe from VM tracepoints RegisterTracePointSubscriber , DeregisterTracePointSubscriber Query runtime environment native memory categories GetMemoryCategories Query and set VM log options QueryVmLogOptions , SetVmLogOptions Search for and remove a shared class cache IterateSharedCaches , DestroySharedCache Subscribe to and unsubscribe from verbose garbage collection (GC) data logging RegisterVerboseGCSubscriber , DeregisterVerboseGCSubscriber The definitions that you need when you write a JVMTI agent are provided in the header files jvmti.h and ibmjvmti.h , in the include directory. Sample JVMTI agent The following sample shows you how to write a simple JVMTI agent that uses OpenJ9 extensions to the JVMTI. Sample JVMTI agent written in C/C++, which uses the OpenJ9 extensions /* * tiSample.c * * Sample JVMTI agent to demonstrate the OpenJ9 JVMTI dump extensions */ #include \"jvmti.h\" #include \"ibmjvmti.h\" /* Forward declarations for JVMTI callback functions */ void JNICALL VMInitCallback(jvmtiEnv *jvmti_env, JNIEnv* jni_env, jthread thread); void JNICALL DumpStartCallback(jvmtiEnv *jvmti_env, char* label, char* event, char* detail, ...); /* * Agent_Onload() * * JVMTI agent initialisation function, invoked as agent is loaded by the VM */ JNIEXPORT jint JNICALL Agent_OnLoad(JavaVM *jvm, char *options, void *reserved) { jvmtiEnv *jvmti = NULL; jvmtiError rc; jint extensionEventCount = 0; jvmtiExtensionEventInfo *extensionEvents = NULL; jint extensionFunctionCount = 0; jvmtiExtensionFunctionInfo *extensionFunctions = NULL; int i = 0, j = 0; printf(\"tiSample: Loading JVMTI sample agent\\n\"); /* Get access to JVMTI */ (*jvm)->GetEnv(jvm, (void **)&jvmti, JVMTI_VERSION_1_0); /* Look up all the JVMTI extension events and functions */ (*jvmti)->GetExtensionEvents(jvmti, &extensionEventCount, &extensionEvents); (*jvmti)->GetExtensionFunctions(jvmti, &extensionFunctionCount, &extensionFunctions); printf(\"tiSample: Found %i JVMTI extension events, %i extension functions\\n\", extensionEventCount, extensionFunctionCount); /* Find the JVMTI extension event we want */ while (i++ < extensionEventCount) { if (strcmp(extensionEvents->id, COM_IBM_VM_DUMP_START) == 0) { /* Found the dump start extension event, now set up a callback for it */ rc = (*jvmti)->SetExtensionEventCallback(jvmti, extensionEvents->extension_event_index, &DumpStartCallback); printf(\"tiSample: Setting JVMTI event callback %s, rc=%i\\n\", COM_IBM_VM_DUMP_START, rc); break; } extensionEvents++; /* move on to the next extension event */ } /* Find the JVMTI extension function we want */ while (j++ < extensionFunctionCount) { jvmtiExtensionFunction function = extensionFunctions->func; if (strcmp(extensionFunctions->id, COM_IBM_SET_VM_DUMP) == 0) { /* Found the set dump extension function, now set a dump option to generate javadumps on thread starts */ rc = function(jvmti, \"java:events=thrstart\"); printf(\"tiSample: Calling JVMTI extension %s, rc=%i\\n\", COM_IBM_SET_VM_DUMP, rc); break; } extensionFunctions++; /* move on to the next extension function */ } return JNI_OK; } /* * DumpStartCallback() * JVMTI callback for dump start event (IBM JVMTI extension) */ void JNICALL DumpStartCallback(jvmtiEnv *jvmti_env, char* label, char* event, char* detail, ...) { printf(\"tiSample: Received JVMTI event callback, for event %s\\n\", event); } The sample JVMTI agent consists of two functions, Agent_OnLoad() and DumpStartCallback() : Agent_OnLoad() This function is called by the VM when the agent is loaded at VM startup, which allows the JVMTI agent to modify VM behavior before initialization is complete. The sample agent obtains access to the JVMTI interface by using the JNI Invocation API function GetEnv() . The agent calls the APIs GetExtensionEvents() and GetExtensionFunctions() to find the JVMTI extensions that are supported by the VM. These APIs provide access to the list of extensions available in the jvmtiExtensionEventInfo and jvmtiExtensionFunctionInfo structures. The sample uses an extension event and an extension function in the following way: Extension event: The sample JVMTI agent searches for the extension event VmDumpStart in the list of jvmtiExtensionEventInfo structures, by using the identifier COM_IBM_VM_DUMP_START provided in ibmjvmti.h . When the event is found, the JVMTI agent calls the JVMTI interface SetExtensionEventCallback() to enable the event, providing a function DumpStartCallback() that is called when the event is triggered. Extension function: Next, the sample JVMTI agent searches for the extension function SetVMDump in the list of jvmtiExtensionFunctionInfo structures, by using the identifier COM_IBM_SET_VM_DUMP provided in ibmjvmti.h . The JVMTI agent calls the function by using the jvmtiExtensionFunction pointer to set a VM dump option java:events=thrstart . This option requests the VM to trigger a Java dump every time a VM thread is started. DumpStartCallback() This callback function issues a message when the associated extension event is called. In the sample code, DumpStartCallback() is used when the VmDumpStart event is triggered. Using the sample JVMTI agent Build the sample JVMTI agent: Windows: cl /I<jre_path>\\include /MD /FetiSample.dll tiSample.c /link /DLL Linux, AIX\u00ae, and z/OS\u00ae: gcc -I<jre_path>/include -o libtiSample.so -shared tiSample.c where <jre_path> is the path to your Java runtime environment installation. To run the sample JVMTI agent, use the command: java -agentlib:tiSample -version When the sample JVMTI agent loads, messages are generated. When the JVMTI agent initiates a Java dump, the message JVMDUMP010 is issued. API reference The following sections provide reference information for the OpenJ9 extensions to the JVMTI.

Identifiers JVMTI Extension Function identifier: com.ibm.DeregisterTracePointSubscriber Macro declaration in the ibmjvmti.h file: COM_IBM_DEREGISTER_TRACEPOINT_SUBSCRIBER GetMemoryCategories You can query runtime environment native memory categories by using the GetMemoryCategories() API: jvmtiError GetMemoryCategories(jvmtiEnv* env, jint version, jint max_categories, jvmtiMemoryCategory * categories_buffer, jint * written_count_ptr, jint * total_categories_ptr); You can query the total native memory consumption of the runtime environment for each memory category by using this API. Native memory is memory requested from the operating system using library functions such as malloc() and mmap() . Runtime environment native memory use is grouped under high-level memory categories, as described in the NATIVEMEMINFO section of the Java dump topic. The data returned by the GetMemoryCategories() API is consistent with this format. See Java dump: NATIVEMEMINFO . The extension writes native memory information to a memory buffer specified by the user. Each memory category is recorded as a jvmtiMemoryCategory structure, whose format is defined in ibmjvmti.h . You can use the GetMemoryCategories() API to work out the buffer size you must allocate to hold all memory categories defined inside the VM. To calculate the size, call the API with a null categories_buffer argument and a non-null total_categories_ptr argument. Parameters env : A pointer to the JVMTI environment. version : The version of the jvmtiMemoryCategory structure that you are using. Use COM_IBM_GET_MEMORY_CATEGORIES_VERSION_1 for this argument, unless you must work with an obsolete version of the jvmtiMemoryCategory structure. max_categories : The number of jvmtiMemoryCategory structures that can fit in the categories_buffer memory buffer. categories_buffer : A pointer to the memory buffer for holding the result of the GetMemoryCategories() call. The number of jvmtiMemoryCategory slots available in the categories_buffer memory buffer must be accurately specified with max_categories , otherwise GetMemoryCategories() can overflow the memory buffer. The value can be null. written_count_ptr : A pointer to jint to store the number of jvmtiMemoryCategory structures to be written to the categories_buffer memory buffer. The value can be null. total_categories_ptr : A pointer to jint to store the total number of memory categories declared in the VM. The value can be null. Returns JVMTI_ERROR_NONE : Success. JVMTI_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_VERSION : Unrecognized value passed for version. JVMTI_ERROR_ILLEGAL_ARGUMENT : Illegal argument; categories_buffer , count_ptr , and total_categories_ptr all have null values. JVMTI_ERROR_INVALID_ENVIRONMENT : The env parameter is invalid. JVMTI_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY : Memory category data is truncated because max_categories is not large enough.

The syntax of the string is the same as the -Xlog command-line option, with the initial -Xlog: omitted. For example, the string \"error,warn\" indicates that the VM is set to log error and warning messages only. For more information, see -Xlog . Parameters jvmti_env : A pointer to the JVMTI environment. buffer_size : The size of the supplied memory buffer in bytes. If the memory buffer is too small to contain the current VM log option string, the JVMTI_ERROR_ILLEGAL_ARGUMENT error message is returned. options_buffer : A pointer to the supplied memory buffer. data_size_ptr : A pointer to a variable, used to return the total size of the option string.

DestroySharedCache You can remove a shared class cache by using the DestroySharedCache() API: jvmtiError DestroySharedCache(jvmtiEnv *env, const char *cacheDir, const char *name, jint persistence, jboolean useCommandLineValues, jint *internalErrorCode); This extension removes a named shared class cache of a given persistence type, in a given directory. You can specify the cache name, persistence type, and directory in one of these ways: Set useCommandLineValues to true and specify the values on the command line. If a value is not available, the default values for the platform are used. Set useCommandLineValues to false and use the cacheDir , persistence and cacheName parameters to identify the cache to be removed. To accept the default value for cacheDir or cacheName , specify the parameter with a null value. Parameters env : A pointer to the JVMTI environment. cacheDir : When the value of useCommandLineValues is false , specify the absolute path of the directory for the shared class cache. If the value is null , the platform-dependent default is used. cacheName : When the value of useCommandLineValues is false , specify the name of the cache to be removed.

At run time, the VM interprets the Java bytecode that is compiled by the Java compiler. The VM acts as a translator between the language and the underlying operating system and hardware. A Java program requires a specific VM to run on a particular platform, such as Linux\u00ae, z/OS\u00ae, or Windows\u2122. This reference material provides information about the VM configuration and tuning options, together with the default settings. Configuring your system For normal operation, certain environment variables must be set at the operating system level. Depending on your system environment, you might also want to set other configuration options that allow the VM to exploit hardware and operating system features. Read Customizing your system to learn more about the following options: Setting the PATH and CLASSPATH environment variable. Setting the LIBPATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable (AIX\u00ae and Linux) to indicate where to find shared libraries. Setting ulimits on AIX and Linux systems to ensure that the operating system allocates sufficient resources for your application. Setting region size, BPXPRM parameters, and Language Environment\u00ae runtime options on z/OS systems. If your application allocates a large amount of memory and frequently accesses that memory, you might want to enable large page support on your system. See Configuring large page memory allocation . Configuring Dynamic LPAR support on AIX systems. Note: On macOS\u00ae systems, you must set the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to indicate where to find shared libraries. In addition, to ensure there are sufficient resources for your application, you might need to increase system limits by using launchctl , ulimit , or kern.<VARIABLES> . For further instructions, refer to the documentation for your macOS release. Performance tuning OpenJ9 is configured to start with a set of default options that provide the optimal runtime environment for Java applications with typical workloads. However, if your application is atypical, you can improve performance by tuning the OpenJ9 VM. You can also improve performance by enabling hardware features or using specific APIs in your application code. Garbage collection policies OpenJ9 includes several garbage collection policies. To learn more about these policies and the types of application workload that can benefit from them, see Garbage Collection . Class data sharing You can share class data between running VMs, which can reduce the startup time for a VM once the cache has been created. For more information, see Class Data Sharing . Native data operations If your Java application manipulates native data, consider writing your application to take advantage of methods in the Data Access Accelerator API. Cloud optimizations To improve the performance of applications that run in containers, try setting the following tuning options: Use a shared classes cache ( -Xshareclasses -XX:SharedCacheHardLimit=200m -Xscmx60m ) with Ahead-Of-Time (AOT) compilation to improve your startup time. For more information, see Class Data Sharing and AOT Compiler . Use the -Xtune:virtualized option, which configures OpenJ9 for typical cloud deployments where VM guests are provisioned with a small number of virtual CPUs to maximize the number of applications that can be run. When enabled, OpenJ9 adapts its internal processes to reduce the amount of CPU consumed and trim down the memory footprint. These changes come at the expense of only a small loss in throughput. The OpenJ9 VM automatically detects when it is running in a docker container and uses a mechanism to detect when the VM is idle. When an idle state is detected, OpenJ9 runs a garbage collection cycle and releases free memory pages back to the operating system. The object heap is also compacted to make best use of the available memory for further application processing. For cloud services that charge based on memory usage, maintaining a small footprint can generate cost savings. For more information about tuning options that control this process, see -XX:IdleTuningMinIdleWaitTime . Cryptographic operations OpenJDK uses the in-built Java cryptographic implementation by default. However, native cryptographic implementations typically provide better performance. OpenSSL is a native open source cryptographic toolkit for Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols, which is well established and used with many enterprise applications. The OpenSSL V1.0.x and V1.1.x implementations are currently supported for the Digest, CBC, GCM, and RSA algorithms. The OpenSSL V1.1.x implementation is also supported for the ChaCha20 and ChaCha20-Poly1305 algorithms. On Linux and AIX platforms, the OpenSSL 1.0.x or 1.1.x library is expected to be found on the system path. If you use a package manager to install OpenSSL, the system path will be updated automatically. On other platforms, the OpenSSL 1.1.x library is currently bundled with the binaries from AdoptOpenJDK. OpenSSL support is enabled by default for all supported algorithms. If you want to limit support to specific algorithms, a number of system properties are available for tuning the implementation. Each algorithm can be disabled individually by setting the following system properties on the command line: To turn off Digest , set -Djdk.nativeDigest=false To turn off ChaCha20 and ChaCha20-Poly1305 , set -Djdk.nativeChaCha20=false . Note: These algorithms are not supported on Java 8 To turn off CBC , set -Djdk.nativeCBC=false To turn off GCM , set -Djdk.nativeGCM=false To turn off RSA , set -Djdk.nativeRSA=false You can turn off all the algorithms by setting the following system property on the command line: -Djdk.nativeCrypto=false To build a version of OpenJDK with OpenJ9 that includes OpenSSL support, follow the steps in our detailed build instructions: OpenJDK 8 with OpenJ9 .

Exploiting GPUs OpenJ9 provides the CUDA4J API and the com.ibm.gpu API , which allow you to develop applications that can take advantage of graphics processing unit (GPU) processing for suitable functions, such as code page conversion. You can also enable the JIT compiler to offload certain processing tasks to a GPU by specifying the -Xjit:enableGPU option on the command line. When enabled, the JIT compiler determines when to offload tasks based on performance heuristics. GPU processing is supported only on Windows (x86-64) and Linux (x86-64 and IBM Power LE) systems. For more information about enabling GPU processing, see Exploiting graphics processing units . Runtime options Runtime options are specified on the command line and include system properties, standard options, nonstandard ( -X ) options, and -XX options. For a detailed list of runtime options, see OpenJ9 command-line options Default settings If you do not specify any options on the command line at run time, the OpenJ9 VM starts with default settings that define how it operates. For more information about these settings, see Default settings for the OpenJ9 VM . Using Jlink On Java 11 and later, you can use the jlink utility to create a custom OpenJ9 runtime image, which allows you to optimize image size. If you do not require translations from the English language, the translation files can be removed to further optimize the size. You can achieve this by specifying the --exclude-files=**java_**.properties option when you run jlink . The default English java.properties file is unaffected. Troubleshooting The OpenJ9 diagnostic component contains extensive features to assist with problem determination. Diagnostic data is produced under default conditions, but can also be controlled by starting the VM with the -Xdump option or using the com.ibm.jvm.Dump API. You can also trace Java applications, methods, and VM operations by using the -Xtrace option .

Without the JIT, the VM has to interpret the bytecodes itself - a process that requires extra CPU and memory. The JIT compiler doesn't compile every method that gets called because thousands of methods can be called at startup. Instead, OpenJ9 records the number of times a method is called. When the count reaches a pre-defined invocation threshold , JIT compilation is triggered. Once a method has been compiled by the JIT, the VM can call the compiled method rather than interpreting it. Optimization levels The JIT compiler can compile a method at different optimization levels: cold , warm , hot , very hot (with profiling) , or scorching . The hotter the optimization level, the better the expected performance, but the higher the cost in terms of CPU and memory. cold is used during startup processing for large applications where the goal is to achieve the best compiled code speed for as many methods as possible. warm is the workhorse; after start-up, most methods are compiled when they reach the invocation threshold. For higher optimization levels, the VM uses a sampling thread to identify methods that continue to take a lot of time. Methods that consume more than 1% are compiled at hot. Methods that consume more than 12.5% are scheduled for a scorching compilation. However, before that happens the methods are compiled at very hot with profiling to collect detailed profile data that is used by the scorching compilation. The higher optimization levels use special techniques such as escape analysis and partial redundancy elimination, or loop through certain optimization sequences more times. Although these techniques use more CPU and memory, the improved performance that is delivered by the optimizations can make the tradeoff worthwhile. Troubleshooting The JIT compiler is enabled by default to optimize performance. However, if you experience a problem running your application, temporarily turning off the JIT will tell you whether the JIT is at fault. Because JIT starts at the same time as the VM, you can only modify JIT behavior at startup. There are a number of ways to disable the JIT: Specify -Djava.compiler=NONE on the command line. Specify -Xint on the command line, which turns off the JIT and AOT compiler. To eliminate problems with one or the other you can turn these compilers off selectively with the -Xnojit and -Xnoaot options. Call the java.lang.Compiler API programmatically. Note: java.lang.Compiler is deprecated for removal in Java SE 9. If turning off the JIT solves your problem, you can investigate JIT operations in more detail by using a number of options to control behavior. Turning on verbose logging with the verbose suboption causes the JIT to record all compiler operations. However, the log file can be difficult to read because there are so many complex operations occuring in rapid succession. Follow these steps to simplify operations, which helps you pinpoint the root cause: Turn off multiple compilation threads The JIT compiler can use more than one compilation thread, which typically improves startup performance. The number of threads is determined by the VM, depending on the system configuration. You can turn off multiple threads by using the -XcompilationThreads option, which simplifies the output in the verbose log. Lower the invocation threshold When the invocation count is set to 0 , the JIT compiles every method and your application will fail immediately when the method causing the problem is reached. You can alter the threshold with the count suboption. Turn off inlining Inlining is a complex process that generates larger and more complex code. To eliminate errors caused by these operations, use the disableImlining suboption. Decrease the optimization levels Use the optlevel suboption to gradually decrease the compiler optimization levels to see whether you can isolate the level at which your problem occurs. More information about these suboptions and the command line syntax is covered in -Xjit . Understanding JIT verbose logs At first glance, a JIT verbose log can look very complex. To help you understand the log we'll look at JIT compiler operations when you run the java -version command. The following option turns on verbose logging and directs output to a log file called vlogfile : java -Xjit:verbose,vlog=vlogfile -version The first section of the log includes lines that start with #INFO: , which provides information about the environment that the JIT is operating in. You can determine the version of the JIT and VM that you are using, and the type and number of processors that the JIT has access to. #INFO: _______________________________________ #INFO: Version Information: #INFO: JIT Level - e24e8aa9 #INFO: JVM Level - 20180315_120 #INFO: GC Level - e24e8aa9 #INFO: #INFO: Processor Information: #INFO: Platform Info:X86 Intel P6 #INFO: Vendor:GenuineIntel #INFO: numProc=1 #INFO: #INFO: _______________________________________ #INFO: AOT #INFO: options specified: #INFO: samplingFrequency=2 #INFO: #INFO: options in effect: #INFO: verbose=1 #INFO: vlog=vlogfile #INFO: compressedRefs shiftAmount=0 #INFO: compressedRefs isLowMemHeap=1 #INFO: _______________________________________ #INFO: JIT #INFO: options specified: #INFO: verbose,vlog=vlogfile #INFO: #INFO: options in effect: #INFO: verbose=1 #INFO: vlog=vlogfile #INFO: compressedRefs shiftAmount=0 #INFO: compressedRefs isLowMemHeap=1 #INFO: StartTime: Apr 23 09:49:10 2018 #INFO: Free Physical Memory: 996188 KB #INFO: CPU entitlement = 100.00 This section also shows the AOT and JIT options that are in force. The last few lines detail the start time of the compilation activity, how much free physical memory is available to the process, and the CPU entitlement. The information section is followed by a sequence of lines that describe the methods that are being compiled, as well as other events significant to the operation of the JIT compiler. Here is a typical line from the verbose log: + (cold) sun/reflect/Reflection.getCallerClass()Ljava/lang/Class; @ 00007FCACED1303C-00007FCACED13182 OrdinaryMethod - Q_SZ=0 Q_SZI=0 QW=1 j9m=00000000011E7EA8 bcsz=2 JNI compThread=0 CpuLoad=2%(2%avg) JvmCpu=0% In this example: The method compiled is sun/reflect/Reflection.getCallerClass()Ljava/lang/Class. The + indicates that this method is successfully compiled. Failed compilations are marked by a !. (cold) tells you the optimization level that was applied. Other examples may be (warm) or (scorching). 00007FCACED1303C-00007FCACED13182 is the code range where the compiled code was generated. Q values provide information about the state of the compilation queues when the compilation occurred. bcsz shows the bytecode size. In this case it is small because this is a native method, so the JIT is simply providing an accelerated JNI transition into the native getCallerClass method. Each line of output represents a method that is compiled. The following example requests information about the performance of JIT compiler threads, with output written to vlogfile . java -Xjit:verbose={compilePerformance},vlog=vlogfile -version The output generated by using this command adds the values time and mem into each line, as shown in the following example: + (cold) java/lang/System.getEncoding(I)Ljava/lang/String; @ 00007F29183A921C-00007F29183A936D OrdinaryMethod - Q_SZ=0 Q_SZI=0 QW=1 j9m=0000000000F13A70 bcsz=3 JNI time=311us mem=[region=704 system=16384]KB compThread=0 CpuLoad=2%(2%avg) JvmCpu=0% time=311us reflects the amount of time taken to do the compilation. mem=[region=704 system=16384]KB reflects the amount of memory that was allocated during the compilation. The following example can be used to create verbose output that includes lines to show when compilation for a method starts and ends, and any methods that are inlined during the compilation. java '-Xjit:verbose={compileStart|compileEnd|inlining},count=5,vlog=vlogfile' -XcompilationThreads1 -version Note: The suboptions count and -XcompilationThreads1 are included only to simplify the output for this example and are not recommended for production.

The value @22 at the end of the pointer is a bytecode index, which describes the bytecode index of the call that is being inlined. The call is 81670d20 bcsz=37 java/lang/String.lengthInternal()I , which shows the corresponding internal pointer, bytecode size (bcsz) and the name of the method that got inlined. Going through the #INL output line by line then: java/lang/String.lengthInternal()I got inlined into its caller 4dce72bd at bytecode index @22. java/lang/String.lengthInternal()I also got inlined into its caller 4dce72bd at bytecode index @28. java/lang/String.regionMatchesInternal(...) got inlined at call reference 4dce72bd at bytecode index @104. Then 4 distinct calls to java/lang/String.charAtInternal(I[C)C were also inlined into java/lang/String.regionMatchesInternal(...) : #3 at bytecode index @121 of regionMatchesInternal #4 at bytecode index @131 of regionMatchesInternal #5 at bytecode index @156 of regionMatchesInternal #6 at bytecode index @166 of regionMatchesInternal These were all the calls that the inliner decided to inline into the method being compiled. There is some additional output that describes calls to methods that weren't inlined: #INL: 4dce72bd called 4dce72bd@120 -> f734b49c bcsz=233 java/lang/String.deduplicateStrings(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)V #INL: 4dce72bd coldCalled 4dce72bd@104 -> bf62dcaf bcsz=182 java/lang/String.regionMatchesInternal(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;[C[CIII)Z #INL: 4dce72bd coldCalled 4dce72bd@104 -> bf62dcaf bcsz=182 java/lang/String.regionMatchesInternal(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;[C[CIII)Z While the output does not specifically say why these methods were not inlined, the relatively larger bytecode size ( bcsz=233 ) probably prevented the first method from being inlined. It's possible that, at a higher optimization level than cold, this deduplicateStrings method may get inlined. The coldCalled label on the last two lines, however, indicate that these calls are located in a part of the method that has not ever been executed, so the JIT decided that inlining those last two methods will probably increase compile time without much promise that it will improve performance. By reading the log in this way you can reconstruct the tree of inlines that are taking place as the compilation proceeds. You can see which methods are being inlined and which methods are not being inlined.

Lower the invocation threshold When the invocation count is set to 0 , the JIT compiles every method and your application will fail immediately when the method causing the problem is reached. You can alter the threshold with the count suboption. Turn off inlining Inlining is a complex process that generates larger and more complex code. To eliminate errors caused by these operations, use the disableImlining suboption. Decrease the optimization levels Use the optlevel suboption to gradually decrease the compiler optimization levels to see whether you can isolate the level at which your problem occurs. More information about these suboptions and the command line syntax is covered in -Xjit .","title":"Troubleshooting"},{"location":"jit/#understanding-jit-verbose-logs","text":"At first glance, a JIT verbose log can look very complex. To help you understand the log we'll look at JIT compiler operations when you run the java -version command. The following option turns on verbose logging and directs output to a log file called vlogfile : java -Xjit:verbose,vlog=vlogfile -version The first section of the log includes lines that start with #INFO: , which provides information about the environment that the JIT is operating in. You can determine the version of the JIT and VM that you are using, and the type and number of processors that the JIT has access to. #INFO: _______________________________________ #INFO: Version Information: #INFO: JIT Level - e24e8aa9 #INFO: JVM Level - 20180315_120 #INFO: GC Level - e24e8aa9 #INFO: #INFO: Processor Information: #INFO: Platform Info:X86 Intel P6 #INFO: Vendor:GenuineIntel #INFO: numProc=1 #INFO: #INFO: _______________________________________ #INFO: AOT #INFO: options specified: #INFO: samplingFrequency=2 #INFO: #INFO: options in effect: #INFO: verbose=1 #INFO: vlog=vlogfile #INFO: compressedRefs shiftAmount=0 #INFO: compressedRefs isLowMemHeap=1 #INFO: _______________________________________ #INFO: JIT #INFO: options specified: #INFO: verbose,vlog=vlogfile #INFO: #INFO: options in effect: #INFO: verbose=1 #INFO: vlog=vlogfile #INFO: compressedRefs shiftAmount=0 #INFO: compressedRefs isLowMemHeap=1 #INFO: StartTime: Apr 23 09:49:10 2018 #INFO: Free Physical Memory: 996188 KB #INFO: CPU entitlement = 100.00 This section also shows the AOT and JIT options that are in force. The last few lines detail the start time of the compilation activity, how much free physical memory is available to the process, and the CPU entitlement. The information section is followed by a sequence of lines that describe the methods that are being compiled, as well as other events significant to the operation of the JIT compiler. Here is a typical line from the verbose log: + (cold) sun/reflect/Reflection.getCallerClass()Ljava/lang/Class; @ 00007FCACED1303C-00007FCACED13182 OrdinaryMethod - Q_SZ=0 Q_SZI=0 QW=1 j9m=00000000011E7EA8 bcsz=2 JNI compThread=0 CpuLoad=2%(2%avg) JvmCpu=0% In this example: The method compiled is sun/reflect/Reflection.getCallerClass()Ljava/lang/Class. The + indicates that this method is successfully compiled. Failed compilations are marked by a !. (cold) tells you the optimization level that was applied. Other examples may be (warm) or (scorching). 00007FCACED1303C-00007FCACED13182 is the code range where the compiled code was generated. Q values provide information about the state of the compilation queues when the compilation occurred. bcsz shows the bytecode size. In this case it is small because this is a native method, so the JIT is simply providing an accelerated JNI transition into the native getCallerClass method. Each line of output represents a method that is compiled. The following example requests information about the performance of JIT compiler threads, with output written to vlogfile . java -Xjit:verbose={compilePerformance},vlog=vlogfile -version The output generated by using this command adds the values time and mem into each line, as shown in the following example: + (cold) java/lang/System.getEncoding(I)Ljava/lang/String; @ 00007F29183A921C-00007F29183A936D OrdinaryMethod - Q_SZ=0 Q_SZI=0 QW=1 j9m=0000000000F13A70 bcsz=3 JNI time=311us mem=[region=704 system=16384]KB compThread=0 CpuLoad=2%(2%avg) JvmCpu=0% time=311us reflects the amount of time taken to do the compilation. mem=[region=704 system=16384]KB reflects the amount of memory that was allocated during the compilation. The following example can be used to create verbose output that includes lines to show when compilation for a method starts and ends, and any methods that are inlined during the compilation. java '-Xjit:verbose={compileStart|compileEnd|inlining},count=5,vlog=vlogfile' -XcompilationThreads1 -version Note: The suboptions count and -XcompilationThreads1 are included only to simplify the output for this example and are not recommended for production.

A total of 7 methods were inlined into java/lang/String.equals : The first three methods ( #0 , #1 , #2 ) are inlined into the top level method, denoted as #-1 : #INL: #0: 4dce72bd #-1 inlined 4dce72bd@22 -> 81670d20 bcsz=37 java/lang/String.lengthInternal()I #INL: #1: 4dce72bd #-1 inlined 4dce72bd@28 -> 81670d20 bcsz=37 java/lang/String.lengthInternal()I #INL: #2: 4dce72bd #-1 inlined 4dce72bd@104 -> bf62dcaf bcsz=182 java/lang/String.regionMatchesInternal(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;[C[CIII)Z The next four methods ( #3 , #4 , #5 , #6 ) are inlined into the method denoted by #2 . #INL: #3: 4dce72bd #2 inlined bf62dcaf@121 -> bbb5af92 bcsz=39 java/lang/String.charAtInternal(I[C)C #INL: #4: 4dce72bd #2 inlined bf62dcaf@131 -> bbb5af92 bcsz=39 java/lang/String.charAtInternal(I[C)C #INL: #5: 4dce72bd #2 inlined bf62dcaf@156 -> bbb5af92 bcsz=39 java/lang/String.charAtInternal(I[C)C #INL: #6: 4dce72bd #2 inlined bf62dcaf@166 -> bbb5af92 bcsz=39 java/lang/String.charAtInternal(I[C)C Here's how to interpret the line for #INL: #0: : The method is inlined into 4dce72bd , where 4dce72bd is an internal pointer that corresponds to this method (in this case, java/lang/String.equals(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z ). The value @22 at the end of the pointer is a bytecode index, which describes the bytecode index of the call that is being inlined. The call is 81670d20 bcsz=37 java/lang/String.lengthInternal()I , which shows the corresponding internal pointer, bytecode size (bcsz) and the name of the method that got inlined. Going through the #INL output line by line then: java/lang/String.lengthInternal()I got inlined into its caller 4dce72bd at bytecode index @22. java/lang/String.lengthInternal()I also got inlined into its caller 4dce72bd at bytecode index @28. java/lang/String.regionMatchesInternal(...) got inlined at call reference 4dce72bd at bytecode index @104. Then 4 distinct calls to java/lang/String.charAtInternal(I[C)C were also inlined into java/lang/String.regionMatchesInternal(...) : #3 at bytecode index @121 of regionMatchesInternal #4 at bytecode index @131 of regionMatchesInternal #5 at bytecode index @156 of regionMatchesInternal #6 at bytecode index @166 of regionMatchesInternal These were all the calls that the inliner decided to inline into the method being compiled. There is some additional output that describes calls to methods that weren't inlined: #INL: 4dce72bd called 4dce72bd@120 -> f734b49c bcsz=233 java/lang/String.deduplicateStrings(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)V #INL: 4dce72bd coldCalled 4dce72bd@104 -> bf62dcaf bcsz=182 java/lang/String.regionMatchesInternal(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;[C[CIII)Z #INL: 4dce72bd coldCalled 4dce72bd@104 -> bf62dcaf bcsz=182 java/lang/String.regionMatchesInternal(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;[C[CIII)Z While the output does not specifically say why these methods were not inlined, the relatively larger bytecode size ( bcsz=233 ) probably prevented the first method from being inlined. It's possible that, at a higher optimization level than cold, this deduplicateStrings method may get inlined. The coldCalled label on the last two lines, however, indicate that these calls are located in a part of the method that has not ever been executed, so the JIT decided that inlining those last two methods will probably increase compile time without much promise that it will improve performance. By reading the log in this way you can reconstruct the tree of inlines that are taking place as the compilation proceeds. You can see which methods are being inlined and which methods are not being inlined.","title":"Understanding JIT verbose logs"},{"location":"jit/#see-also","text":"Diagnosing a JIT or AOT problem","title":"See also"},{"location":"legal/","text":"Legal License agreement, notices, copyright, and trademark information for the user documentation.

Understanding what the messages mean can help you with problem determination. Message categories There are three main categories of message: Information Information messages provide information about VM processing. For example, a dump information message is typically issued when a dump agent requests a dump. Warning Warning messages are issued by the VM to indicate conditions that might need user intervention. Error Error messages are issued by the VM when normal processing cannot proceed, because of unexpected conditions. OpenJ9 virtual machine messages have the following format: JVM<type><number><code> where: JVM is a standard prefix. <type> refers to the VM subcomponent that issued the message. <number> is a unique numerical number. <code> is one of the following codes: I - Information message W - Warning message E - Error message These messages can help you with problem determination. By default, all error and some information messages are routed to the system log and also written to stderr or stdout . The specific information messages are JVMDUMP039I , JVMDUMP032I , and JVMDUMP033I , which provide valuable additional information about dumps produced by the VM. To route additional message types to the system log, or turn off message logging to the system log, use the -Xlog option. The -Xlog option does not affect messages written to the standard error stream (stderr). See OpenJ9 command-line options . Finding logged messages Logged messages can be found in different locations, according to platform. Finding AIX messages On AIX\u00ae, messages are logged by the syslog daemon ( /usr/sbin/syslogd ). Logged messages are written to the syslog file that is configured in /etc/syslog.conf . If the syslog daemon is not running, logged messages are lost. You can redirect messages from the syslog daemon to the AIX error log facility by performing the following configuration steps: Set up a redirect in the file syslog.conf so that syslog messages are sent to the error log, by adding the following line: user.debug errlog If syslogd is already running, reload the updated configuration by running the following command: refresh -s syslogd The updated configuration is used each time syslogd starts. 4. Use the AIX errpt command or the System Management Interface Tool (SMIT) to read the messages sent to the error log. For more information about AIX logging, see: Error-logging overview . Finding Linux messages On Linux\u00ae, messages are logged by the syslog daemon. To find where messages are logged, check the syslog configuration file. Finding macOS messages On macOS\u00ae, messages are logged by the syslog daemon. However, on Sierra and High Sierra, syslog does not work. If /var/log/system.log is not available, Console.app can be used instead. Finding Windows messages On Windows\u2122, messages are logged in the application events section of the event viewer. Finding z/OS messages On z/OS\u00ae, messages are sent to the operator console. To see the messages, go from the ispf panel to the sdsf panel, then open the log panel. Obtaining detailed message descriptions Detailed message information is available to help with problem diagnosis. Understanding the warning or error message issued by the VM can help you diagnose problems. All warning and error messages issued by the VM are listed by type in the messages guide: IBM\u00ae VM messages . The messages, error codes, and exit codes in this guide apply to multiple versions of the VM. Note: If the VM fills all available memory, the message number might be produced without a description for the error that caused the problem.

The Eclipse OpenJ9 virtual machine (VM) implements the Java Virtual Machine Specification . Most Java applications should run on an OpenJDK that contains the OpenJ9 VM without changing anything. However, because it is an independent implementation there are some differences compared to the HotSpot VM, which is the default OpenJDK VM and is also included in an Oracle JDK. Command-line options Although OpenJ9 implements its own command-line interface, many Hotspot options are recognized and accepted by the VM for compatibility. Any -XX: options that are not recognized by the VM are ignored by default, which prevents an application failing to start. You can turn off this behavior with the -XX:-IgnoreUnrecognizedXXColonOptions option. For a list of compatible options, see Switching to OpenJ9 in the Command-line options section. Garbage collection policies Eclipse OpenJ9 has a number of GC policies designed around different types of applications and workloads. By default, OpenJ9 uses the Generational Concurrent ( gencon ) GC policy, which is best suited for transactional applications that have many short-lived objects. The policy aims to minimize GC pause times without compromising throughput. If you are using Java 8, the gencon policy is similar to the ParallelGC policy, which is the default HotSpot policy. If you are using Java 11, the OpenJ9 balanced ( balanced ) policy is most similar to the default HotSpot policy. If you have a different type of workload, you might want to select a different GC policy. For a summary of available policies, see Garbage collection . For more information about the differences between OpenJ9 GC policies and how to choose the right one for your application, see Eclipse OpenJ9: Garbage collection tradeoffs and tuning with OpenJ9 . To start your application with a different policy, use the -Xgcpolicy option on the command line. Operational tooling If you are a Java application developer or you are responsible for managing large server or desktop deployments of a Java runtime environment, you probably use a number of tools for monitoring, management, and troubleshooting. Because OpenJ9 is an independent implementation, it has evolved with its own approach for these areas and, in some cases, its own unique tools. In other cases, tools have been added for compatibility with the reference implementation, but these tools might differ in behavior from equivalent tools in HotSpot. For a list of these tools, see Switching to OpenJ9 in the Tools section. Dumps, logs, and trace files OpenJ9 contains extensive trace and debugging capabilities to help identify, isolate, and solve run time problems. Dump files: Various types of dump are produced by default in response to certain events and can also be triggered for a whole range of events by using the com.ibm.jvm.Dump API or by specifying -Xdump options on the command line. Dumps include Java dumps , heap dumps , system dumps , JIT dumps, stack dumps, and snap dumps (tracepoint data). For more information, see the -Xdump option. Verbose log files: Some components of OpenJ9 can also produce verbose output or log files to assist with problem determination, including class data sharing , garbage collection , and the JIT compiler . Trace files: The OpenJ9 implementation contains extensive tracepoints used to log information and exceptional conditions, with minimal impact on performance. Some tracepoints are enabled by default; others can be enabled on demand. For more information, see the -Xtrace option for tracing Java applications and the VM, and the -Xtgc option for tracing garbage collection. If you are familiar with using HotSpot as part of an Oracle JDK or OpenJDK, you probably make use of the monitoring and diagnostic tools that are provided with the VM. OpenJ9 has implemented a different approach to providing similar data; rather than running a number of different tools to obtain a different piece of information, the Java dump file provides a comprehensive set of information in one place. You can find the following information in an OpenJ9 Java dump: The system the VM is running on and the resources available. The Java execution environment, including the options set from the command line. The native memory used by the VM, broken down by VM component. Memory usage in the VM for the object heap and internal VM structures, such as the JIT code cache. Lock operations that protect shared resources during runtime. Java threads, native threads, and stack traces. Hook interfaces, for performance analysis. Details about the shared classes cache, if used. Detailed information about classloaders, together with a list of libraries and classes that are loaded. For more information, see Java dump . Tools OpenJ9 provides support for a number of monitoring and diagnostic tools that can be found in the Eclipse marketplace . Each tool provides a graphical user interface to help you visualize data and, in some cases, can provide tuning or debugging recommendations. Health Center: Provides real-time monitoring of running applications with minimal overhead over the network. You can monitor a whole range of operations including, class loading, CPU usage, GC heap and pause times, I/O activity, lock contention, method trace, native memory usage, profiling, and live threads. For more information, read the Health Center documentation . Garbage Collection Memory Vizualizer (GCMV): Plots GC and native memory data over time. You can view and save data as a report, raw log, tabulated data, or in graphical format. The tool helps to diagnose problems such as memory leaks with data presented in various visual formats for analysis. Tuning recommendations are also provided. For more information, read the GCMV documentation . Memory Analyzer: Examines the Java object heap to help find memory leaks or reduce memory consumption. Support is available for OpenJ9 via the DTFJ interface (Install from the Eclipse Help menu; Install New Software > Work with \"IBM Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java\" > IBM Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools > Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java). More information about Eclipse MAT can be found on the project website page . Interactive Diagnostic Data Explorer (IDDE): A GUI alternative to the OpenJ9 dump viewer , which can examine the contents of an OpenJ9 system dump. For more information, read the IDDE documentation . If you are familiar with using HotSpot as part of an Oracle JDK or OpenJDK, the Java VisualVM utility is functionally similar to Health Center. Most of the other tools provided with HotSpot are not officially supported, but equivalent functionality is available in OpenJ9 through command-line options, dump agents, and AttachAPI. Interfaces OpenJ9 provides the following interfaces, which can be used for monitoring and diagnostic purposes: JVMTI : OpenJ9 supports the Java Virtual Machine Tool Interface (JVMTI) and provides extensions that allow JVMTI tools to obtain diagnostic information or trigger diagnostic operations in the VM. For more information about this interface, see Java Virtual Machine Tool Interface . DTFJ interface : The Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java (DTFJ) API allows custom applications to be written that can access a wide range of information in a system dump or a Java dump. DTFJ can be used with the Eclipse Memory Analyzer Toolkit (MAT) to examine the Java object heap for memory leaks and to reduce memory consumption. For more information about DTFJ, see Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java . java.lang.management API: OpenJ9 provides MXBean additions and extensions to this standard API, which enables you to use tools such as JConsole to monitor and manage your Java applications. For more information, see MBeans and MXBeans in the IBM\u00ae Knowledge Center. If you are familiar with using HotSpot as part of an Oracle JDK or OpenJDK, you might make use of certain com.sun.management interfaces. Although OpenJ9 implements some of these interfaces, a few are specific to the HotSpot VM. The following table indicates alternative classes or mechanisms that you can use for equivalent function in OpenJ9: Hotspot-specific classes Alternatives for OpenJ9 HotSpotDiagnosticMXBean OpenJ9DiagnosticsMXBean (for heap dumps) MissionControl Use Health Center MissionControlMXBean Use Health Center ThreadMXBean JvmCpuMonitorMXBean (for thread time) VMOption OpenJ9 Java dump (option -Xdump:java ) DiagnosticCommandMBean None Note: OpenJ9 implements the following com.sun.management interfaces: GarbageCollectorMXBean , GarbageCollectionNotificationInfo , GcInfo , OperatingSystemMXBean , UnixOperatingSystemMXBean . Other differences This topic describes the differences between the HotSpot VM and the Eclipse OpenJ9 VM. Therefore, if you are currently using an OpenJDK with the default Hotspot VM and you want to switch to using an OpenJDK with the OpenJ9 VM, these are the only differences you might be concerned about. If however, you are using an Oracle JDK, you might want to learn about differences between other components that make up an Oracle JDK or an OpenJDK from the AdoptOpenJDK community.

Start up performance is improved by placing classes that an application needs when initializing into a shared classes cache. The next time the application runs, it takes much less time to start because the classes are already available. When you enable class data sharing, AOT compilation is also enabled by default, which dynamically compiles certain methods into AOT code at runtime. By using these features in combination, startup performance can be improved even further because the cached AOT code can be used to quickly enable native code performance for subsequent runs of your application. When class data sharing is enabled, OpenJ9 automatically creates a memory mapped file that stores and shares the classes in memory. The shared classes cache is updated dynamically; When an application loads new classes, the JVM automatically stores them in the cache without any user intervention. Memory footprint is reduced by sharing common classes between applications that run in separate Java VMs. Enabling class data sharing Class data sharing is enabled by default for bootstrap classes only (the equivalent of specifying -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly,nonFatal,silent ), unless your application is running in a container. If you want to change the default behaviour, use the -Xshareclasses option on the command line. For example: You can change the name and location of the default shared classes cache. You can enable messages about the default shared classes cache by using the default command line option without the silent suboption: -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly,nonFatal . Note: If you have multiple VMs and you do not change the default shared classes behavior, the VMs will share a single default cache, assuming that the VMs are from a single Java installation. If the VMs are from different Java installations, the cache might be deleted and recreated; for more information, see the following section about best practices. You can treat the default cache like any other shared classes cache, for example you can print statistics for it, change the soft maximum limit size, or delete it. You can enable class data sharing for non-bootstrap classes as well, by using -Xshareclasses without the bootClassesOnly suboption. You can also disable all class data sharing by using the none suboption. Best practices for using -Xshareclasses The -Xshareclasses option is highly configurable, allowing you to specify where to create the cache, how much space to allocate for AOT code and more. You can also set the cache size by using the -Xscmx option. When shared classes is enabled, it is good practice to specify some of the cache behavior: Set an application-specific cache name ( -Xshareclasses:name=<name> ). If a cache with the specified name doesn't already exist, a new cache is created. This avoids sharing your application cache with a cache that is enabled by default or with another application that doesn't set a name, and ensures that the size of your application cache can be set appropriately and that cache space is used exclusively for your application. Note: You cannot change the size of a default cache that already exists by using the -Xscmx option, as that option has no effect on a pre-existing cache. Set a specific cache directory ( -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=<directory> ). Set a cache directory that is specific to your application, to avoid sharing the default cache directory with the default cache, or other application caches that don't set a cache directory. Your application will be unaffected by a user running java -Xshareclasses:destroyAll . In addition, if you have VMs from different Java installations, of the same Java release and installed by the same user, each VM checks whether the existing default shared cache in the cache directory is from the same Java installation as the VM. If not, the VM deletes that shared cache, then creates a new one. Specifying a different cache directory for each Java installation avoids this situation. Ensure that the cache directory permissions are set appropriately ( -Xshareclasses:cacheDirPerm ). It is good practice to explicitly set permissions for the cache directory when the defaults are not appropriate. Set the -Xshareclasses:nonfatal option. This option means that your application can start even if there is a problem opening or creating the shared cache, in which case, the VM might be able to start without class data sharing. Support for custom class loaders Classes are shared by the bootstrap class loader internally in the OpenJ9 VM. If you are using a custom class loader, you can use the Java Helper API to find and store classes in the shared class cache. For more information, see Using the Java Helper API . Cache utilities Several utilities are provided for managing active caches, which are invoked by specifying -Xshareclasses suboptions. These utilities control the following types of operations: Adjust the minimum and maximum amount of cache space reserved for AOT or JIT data. Adjust the soft maximum size of the cache. Create snapshots of a cache. Create a cache from a snapshot. Remove caches and cache snapshots. List all the compatible and incompatible caches and snapshots. For problem determination, invalidate and revalidate AOT methods that cause a failure in an application.

Each entry in the output starts with a VM ID, so you can see which VM wrote the associated data. Here are example entries for various types of cache data, with explanations: Class paths This example shows one class path with 4 entries: 1: 0x2234FA6C CLASSPATH /myVM/Apps/application1.jar /myVM/Apps/application2.jar /myVM/Apps/application3.jar /myVM/Apps/application4.jar 1 : the ID of the VM that wrote this data. 0x2234FA6C : the address where this data is stored.

Stale methods are marked with !STALE! . URLs and tokens A Token is a string that is passed to the Java\u2122 SharedClassHelper API. The output for these data types has the same format as that for class paths, but with a single entry. Zip entry caches This example shows 4 separate entries for zip entry caches: 1: 0x042FE07C ZIPCACHE: luni-kernel.jar_347075_1272300300_1 Address: 0x042FE094 Size: 7898 1: 0x042FA878 ZIPCACHE: luni.jar_598904_1272300546_1 Address: 0x042FA890 Size: 14195 1: 0x042F71F8 ZIPCACHE: nio.jar_405359_1272300546_1 Address: 0x042F7210 Size: 13808 1: 0x042F6D58 ZIPCACHE: annotation.jar_13417_1272300554_1 Address: 0x042F6D70 Size: 1023 1 : the ID of the VM that wrote this data. 0x042FE07C : the address where the metadata for the zip entry cache is stored.

For layered caches, -Xshareclasses:printStats shows some information for the top layer cache, and summary information (bytes and counts only) for all layers combined. To see information for the top layer cache only, use printTopLayerStats . You can request more detail about items of a specific data type that are stored in the shared cache by using printStats=<data_type> . Use the plus symbol (+) to separate the data types. For example, use printStats=romclass+url,name=myCache to see information about ROMClass and URL items in all the layer caches of the cache called Cache1 .

BCI Enabled relates to the -Xshareclasses:enableBCI option (enabled by default) and Restrict Classpaths relates to the -Xshareclasses:restrictClasspaths option. Feature = cr indicates that the cache is a 64-bit compressed references cache, as described in Creating, populating, monitoring, and deleting a cache . Line number information for classes in the cache is then shown with one of the following messages: Cache contains only classes with line numbers : VM line number processing was enabled for all the classes that were stored in this shared cache (the -Xlinenumbers option is enabled by default). All classes in the cache contain line numbers if the original classes contained line number data. Cache contains only classes without line numbers : The -Xnolinenumbers option was used to disable VM line number processing for all the classes that were stored in this shared cache, so none of the classes contain line numbers. Cache contains classes with line numbers and classes without line numbers : VM line number processing was enabled for some classes and disabled for others (the -Xnolinenumbers option was specified when some of the classes were added to the cache). The following summary data is displayed: baseAddress and endAddress The boundary addresses of the shared memory area that contains the classes. allocation pointer The address where ROMClass data is currently being allocated in the cache. cache layer The layer number that the cache stats relate to. cache size and free bytes cache size shows the total size of the shared memory area in bytes, and free bytes shows the free bytes that remain. softmx bytes The soft maximum size for the cache. For more information, see -Xscmx . ROMClass bytes The number of bytes of class data in the cache. AOT bytes The number of bytes of AOT-compiled code in the cache. Reserved space for AOT bytes The number of bytes reserved for AOT-compiled code in the cache. Maximum space for AOT bytes The maximum number of bytes of AOT-compiled code that can be stored in the cache. JIT data bytes The number of bytes of JIT-related data stored in the cache. Reserved space for JIT data bytes The number of bytes reserved for JIT-related data in the cache. Maximum space for JIT data bytes The maximum number of bytes of JIT-related data that can be stored in the cache. Zip cache bytes The number of zip entry cache bytes stored in the cache. Startup hint bytes The number of bytes of data stored to describe startup hints. Data bytes The number of bytes of non-class data stored by the VM. Metadata bytes The number of bytes of data stored to describe the cached classes. Note: This field is available only in the top layer cache output or when a cache is not layered. Metadata % used The proportion of metadata bytes to class bytes, which indicates how efficiently cache space is being used. The value shown does consider the Class debug area size . Class debug area size The size in bytes of the Class Debug Area. This area is reserved to store LineNumberTable and LocalVariableTable class attribute information. Class debug area bytes used The size in bytes of the Class Debug Area that contains data. Class debug area % used The percentage of the Class Debug Area that contains data. ROMClasses The number of classes in the cache. The cache stores ROMClasses (the class data itself, which is read-only) and information about the location from which the classes were loaded. This information is stored in different ways, depending on the Java SharedClassHelper API that was used to store the classes. For more information, see Using the Java Helper API . AOT methods Optionally, ROMClass methods can be compiled and the AOT code stored in the cache. The AOT methods information shows the total number of methods in the cache that have AOT code compiled for them. This number includes AOT code for stale classes. Classpaths , URLs , and Tokens The number of class paths, URLs, and tokens in the cache. Classes stored from a SharedClassURLClasspathHelper are stored with a Classpath. Classes stored using a SharedClassURLHelper are stored with a URL. Classes stored using a SharedClassTokenHelper are stored with a Token. Most class loaders, including the bootstrap and application class loaders, use a SharedClassURLClasspathHelper . The result is that it is most common to see class paths in the cache. The number of Classpaths, URLs, and Tokens stored is determined by a number of factors. For example, every time an element of a Classpath is updated, such as when a .jar file is rebuilt, a new Classpath is added to the cache. Additionally, if partitions or modification contexts are used, they are associated with the Classpath, URL, or Token. A Classpath, URL, or Token is stored for each unique combination of partition and modification context. For more information, see SharedClassHelper partitions and Modification contexts . Zip caches The number of .zip files that have entry caches stored in the shared cache. Startup hints The number of startup hints stored in the cache. There can be a startup hint for each unique set of command line options used to start the JVM. Stale classes The number of classes that have been marked as \"potentially stale\" by the cache code, because of a VM or Java application update. See Understanding dynamic updates . % Stale classes The percentage of classes in the cache that are stale. Cache is XXX% full The percentage of the cache that is currently used. This line is displayed only if the soft maximum size is not set. This value is calculated as follows: % Full = (('Cache Size' - 'Free Bytes') * 100) / ('Cache Size') Cache is XXX% soft full The percentage of the soft maximum size that is currently used. This line is displayed only if the soft maximum size is set. The free bytes in the cache statistics means the free bytes within the soft maximum limit. This value is calculated as follows: % soft Full = (('Soft max bytes' - 'Free Bytes') * 100) / ('Soft max bytes') For more information about the soft maximum size, see -Xscmx . Cache is accessible to current user Whether the current user can access the cache. printTopLayerStats Use this utility with a layered cache. This utility works in the same way as printStats . By default, this utility shows information for the top layer cache. To view statistics for a specific layer, use the layer=<number> option. For example, to show statistics for the second layer in a 2-layer cache, run printTopLayerStats,layer=1 . Example output: Current statistics for cache \"Cache1\": Cache created with: -Xnolinenumbers = false BCI Enabled = true Restrict Classpaths = false Feature = cr base address = 0x00007F234C054000 end address = 0x00007F234D038000 allocation pointer = 0x00007F234C054000 cache layer = 1 cache size = 16776608 softmx bytes = 16776608 free bytes = 15299372 Reserved space for AOT bytes = -1 Maximum space for AOT bytes = -1 Reserved space for JIT data bytes = -1 Maximum space for JIT data bytes = -1 Metadata bytes = 792 Metadata % used = 0% Class debug area size = 1331200 Class debug area used bytes = 0 Class debug area % used = 0% ROMClass bytes = 0 AOT bytes = 30520 JIT data bytes = 644 Zip cache bytes = 0 Startup hint bytes = 0 Data bytes = 114080 # ROMClasses = 0 # AOT Methods = 18 # Classpaths = 0 # URLs = 0 # Tokens = 0 # Zip caches = 0 # Startup hints = 0 # Stale classes = 0 % Stale classes = 0% Cache is 8% full Cache is accessible to current user = true","title":"Diagnostic cache utilities"},{"location":"shrc_diag_util/#shared-classes-cache-diagnostic-utilities","text":"These utilities display information about the contents of a shared classes cache.

The dump viewer allows you to view both Java\u2122 and native information from the time the dump was produced. For long running tasks, the dump viewer can also be run in batch mode. The dump viewer is useful for diagnosing OutOfMemoryError exceptions in Java\u2122 applications. For problems like general protection faults (GPF), system abends, and SIGSEVs, a system debugger such as gdb (Linux) provides more information. Syntax Starting the dump viewer jdmpview (-core <core file> | -zip <zip file>) [-notemp] Input option Explanation -core <core file> Specifies a dump file. -zip <zip file> Specifies a compressed file containing the core file and associated XML file (produced by the dump extractor ( jextract ) tool on AIX\u00ae and Linux\u2122 systems). -notemp By default, when you specify a file by using the -zip option, the contents are extracted to a temporary directory before processing. Use the -notemp option to prevent this extraction step, and run all subsequent commands in memory. Note: The -core option can be used with the -zip option to specify the core and XML files in the compressed file. Without these options, jdmpview shows multiple contexts, one for each source file that it identified in the compressed file. On z/OS\u00ae, you can copy the dump to an HFS file and supply that as input to jdmpview , or you can supply a fully qualified MVS\u2122 data set name. For example: > jdmpview -core USER1.JVM.TDUMP.SSHD6.D070430.T092211 DTFJView version 4.28.3, using DTFJ version 1.11.28004 Loading image from DTFJ... MVS data set names may contain the dollar sign ($). Names that contain a dollar sign must be enclosed by single quotation marks ('). For example: > jdmpview -core 'USER1.JVM.$TDUMP.SSH$D7.D141211.T045506' After jdmpview processes the dump files, a session starts, showing this message: For a list of commands, type \"help\"; for how to use \"help\", type \"help help\" > If you run the jdmpview tool on a compressed file that contains multiple dumps, the tool detects and shows all the dump files, whether these are system dumps, Java dumps, or heap dumps. Because of this behavior, more than one context might be displayed when you start jdmpview . To switch context, type context <n> , where <n> is the context value for the dump you want to investigate. On z/OS, a system dump can contain multiple address spaces and an address space can contain multiple VM instances. In this case, the context allows you to select the address space and VM instance within the dump file. The following z/OS example shows address spaces ( ASID ), with two JVMs occupying address space 0x73 (context 5 and 6). The current context is 5 ( CTX:5> ), shown with an asterisk. To view the JVM in context 6, you can switch by specifying context 6 . CTX:5> context Available contexts (* = currently selected context) : 0 : ASID: 0x1 : No JRE : No JRE 1 : ASID: 0x3 : No JRE : No JRE 2 : ASID: 0x4 : No JRE : No JRE 3 : ASID: 0x6 : No JRE : No JRE 4 : ASID: 0x7 : No JRE : No JRE *5 : ASID: 0x73 EDB: 0x83d2053a0 : JRE 1.8.0 z/OS s390x-64 build 20181117_128845 (pmz6480-20181120_01) 6 : ASID: 0x73 EDB: 0x8004053a0 : JRE 1.8.0 z/OS s390x-64 build 20181117_128845 (pmz6480-20181120_01) 7 : ASID: 0x73 EDB: 0x4a7bd9e8 : No JRE 8 : ASID: 0xffff : No JRE : No JRE If you are using jdmpview to view Java dumps and heap dumps, some options do not produce any output. For example, a heap dump doesn't contain the information requested by the info system command, but does contain information requested by the info class command. If you are viewing a dump where there are a large number of objects on the heap, you can speed up the performance of jdmpview by ensuring that your system has enough memory available and does not need to page memory to disk. To achieve this, start jdmpview with a larger heap size by specifying the -Xmx option. Use the -J option to pass the -Xmx command line option to the JVM. For example: jdmpview -J-Xmx<n> -core <core file> The options available to the dump viewer session are shown under Session parameters Starting in batch mode For long running or routine jobs, jdmpview can be used in batch mode. You can run a single command without specifying a command file by appending the command to the end of the jdmpview command line. For example: jdmpview -core mycore.dmp info class When specifying jdmpview commands that accept a wildcard parameter, you must replace the wildcard symbol with ALL to prevent the shell interpreting the wildcard symbol. For example, in interactive mode, the command info thread * must be specified in the following way: jdmpview -core mycore.dmp info thread ALL Batch mode is controlled with the following command line options: Option Explanation -cmdfile <path to command file> A file that contains a series of jdmpview commands, which are read and run sequentially. -charset <character set name> The character set for the commands specified in -cmdfile (name must be a supported charset as defined in java.nio.charset.Charset. For example, US-ASCII) -outfile <path to output file> The file to record any output generated by commands. -overwrite If the file specified in -outfile exists, this option overwrites the file. -append If the file specified in -outfile exists, new output messages are appended to the end of that file. The -append and -overwrite options cannot be used at the same time. The command file can have empty lines that contain spaces, or comment lines that start with // or #. These lines are ignored by jdmpview. Example command file: // commands.txt info system info proc To run jdmpview in batch mode, using this command file, specify: jdmpview -outfile out.txt [-overwrite|-append] -cmdfile commands.txt -core <path to core file> When the output file exists, you need to specify either the -overwrite option or the -append option. If you do not, an error message is generated. Processing output You can redirect command output to a file, or pipe the command output to another command. To redirect jdmpview command output to a file, use one of the following formats: command > <target_file> If the target file exists, this redirection overwrites the content within it. command >> <target_file> If the target file exists, this redirection appends the output to it. Where <target_file> is the file name, which can include the full path to the file. To pipe jdmpview command output to another command, use the vertical bar (|) character. For example: command | grep string You can chain more than two commands together by using multiple vertical bar characters. The following commands can be used to interrogate the output: charsFrom charsTo grep tokens Using CharsFrom Use the charsFrom command after the vertical bar character to exclude all characters that come before a specified pattern in a resulting line. charsFrom <options> pattern Where <options> : -e or -exclude : Exclude the matched pattern from the resulting line. By default, the matched pattern is included in the resulting line. -keep : Keep lines that do not contain a match to the pattern. By default, lines that do not contain a match are excluded from the results. -i or -ignoreCase : Ignore case. For example, the following command displays resulting lines that contain the pattern jre , and trims each line to exclude all characters that come before this pattern: > info mod | charsFrom jre jre/lib/ppc64/libzip.so @ 0x0, sections: jre/lib/ppc64/libdbgwrapper80.so @ 0x0, sections: jre/lib/ppc64/libverify.so @ 0x0, sections: jre/lib/ppc64/libjava.so @ 0x0, sections: jre/lib/ppc64/compressedrefs/libjclse7b_28.so @ 0x0, sections: Using CharsTo Use the CharsTo command after the vertical bar character to include the characters in a resulting line until a specific pattern is found. charsTo <options> pattern Where <options> : -include : Include the matched pattern in the resulting line. By default, the matched pattern is excluded from the resulting line. -keep : Keep lines that do not contain a match to the pattern. By default, lines that do not contain a match are excluded from the results. -i or -ignoreCase : Ignore case. For example, the following command displays lines that contain the pattern \"@\", and trims each line to exclude all characters from \"@\" onwards: > info mod | charsTo @ bin/java /usr/lib64/gconv/UTF-16.so /test/sdk/lib/ppc64le/libnet.so /test/sdk/lib/ppc64le/libnio.so /test/sdk/lib/ppc64le/libzip.so /test/sdk/lib/ppc64le/libjsig.so libjsig.so You can also use charsFrom and charsTo together, separated by a vertical bar character. For example, the following command displays lines that contain the pattern \"lib\", and trims each line to exclude all characters that come before this pattern, as well as all characters from the pattern @ : > info mod | charsFrom lib | charsTo @ lib/ppc64le/libzip.so lib/ppc64le/libjsig.so lib/ppc64le/libverify.so lib/ppc64le/libjava.so lib/ppc64le/compressedrefs/libj9jit29.so Note: The line will not be displayed if the charsFrom and charsTo are used together, but only one of the patterns are matched in a line. Furthermore, the line will not be displayed if both patterns are matched in a line, but the charsTo pattern appears before, and not after, the charsFrom pattern. Using grep Use the grep command after the vertical bar character to show which lines match a specified pattern. grep <options> pattern Where <options> : -i : Ignore case. -r , -G , or --regex : Use a regular expression as defined in the Java documentation of the java.utils.regex.Pattern class. -b or --block : Show blocks of lines where at least one of the lines matches the pattern. Blocks of lines are separated by empty lines. -A <NUM> or +<NUM> : Show at most <NUM> lines after the matching line. For example grep -A 2 pattern or grep +2 pattern. -B <NUM> or -<NUM> : Show at most <NUM> lines before the matching line. -C <NUM> or +-<NUM> : Show at most <NUM> lines before and after the matching line. -v or --invert-match : Use with the grep command to show lines that do not match the pattern. These options are equivalent to the grep- command. -F or --fixed-strings : Do not treat the asterisk (*) as a wildcard character. Use these options with the -r , -G , or --regex options. Pattern rules: An asterisk (*) in a pattern is treated as a wildcard character unless you specify the -F or --fixed-strings options. If a pattern contains spaces, enclose the pattern in a pair of double quotation marks (\"). If a pattern contains double quotation marks, enclose the pattern in a pair of single quotation marks ('). You can specify multiple sub-patterns to match by using the following format, but only if you do not use the -r , -G , or --regex options: \"[pattern1|pattern2|...|patternN]\" The initial and trailing double quotation marks and brackets ([ ]) are required. Use a vertical bar character to separate the sub-patterns. Quotation marks and the vertical bar are not allowed in a sub-pattern. Spaces are allowed in the middle of a sub-pattern, but leading and trailing spaces will be trimmed. Use the grep command to show lines that do not match the pattern. For example, the following command displays the number of instances and total heap size for the java/lang/String class: > info class | grep java/lang/String 94 7688 [Ljava/lang/String; 1822 58304 java/lang/String 1 16 java/lang/String$CaseInsensitiveComparator 0 0 java/lang/String$UnsafeHelpers The following command uses two pipes in combination to display the number of instances and total heap size for the java/lang/StringCoding.StringDecoder class: > info class | grep java/lang/String | grep -i decoder 1 48 java/lang/StringCoding$StringDecoder Using tokens Use the tokens command after the vertical bar character to isolate specified tokens in the resulting lines. tokens [options] range[,range][..range] You can define range in the following formats: x x,y x..y A set of rules applies to these formats: x or y can be prefixed with \"-\". This means that x or y are counting backwards from the end of a list. For example, a y value of -1 represents the last token in a list, while -2 represents the penultimate token in a list. x must represent a token that either precedes or is at the same position as y. In this format, if x is omitted, it is assumed to be '1'. If y is omitted, it is assumed to be '-1'. For example, the following command displays the first and second token for each resulting line: > info mmap | grep -r ^0x | tokens 1,2 0x0000000000012fff 0x000000000000d000 0x0000000000017fff 0x0000000000004000 0x00000000009dafff 0x0000000000018000 0x00000000009fffff 0x000000000001f000 0x0000000000cbefff 0x0000000000002000 0x0000000000d76fff 0x0000000000001000 0x0000000003145fff 0x0000000000071000 0x0000000003b93fff 0x0000000000003000 Session parameters When jdmpview is started, many parameters can be used during the session to interrogate the system dump data, which are divided into general and expert parameters. The general parameters are documented in this section. To see a list of expert parameters, use the !j9help option. !j9help !j9help Lists all expert parameters that can be used in a session, with a brief description. cd cd <directory_name> Changes the working directory to <directory_name> . The working directory is used for log files. Logging is controlled by the set logging command. Use the pwd command to query the current working directory. cmdfile cmdfile <directory_name> Runs all of the commands in a file. The commands are read line by line and run sequentially. Empty lines, and lines that start with // or # , are ignored. Use the option charset to identify the character set that is used in the chosen file. The character set must be supported, as defined in java.nio.charset.Charset , such as US-ASCII . deadlock This command detects deadlock situations in the Java application that was running when the system dump was produced. Example output: deadlock loop: thread: Thread-2 (monitor object: 0x9e32c8) waiting for => thread: Thread-3 (monitor object: 0x9e3300) waiting for => thread: Thread-2 (monitor object: 0x9e32c8) In this example, the deadlock analysis shows that Thread-2 is waiting for a lock held by Thread-3 , which is in turn waiting for a lock held earlier by Thread-2 . Threads are identified by their Java thread name, whereas object monitors are identified by the address of the object in the Java heap. You can obtain further information about the threads using the info thread * command. You can obtain further information about the monitors using the x/J <0xaddr> command. find find <pattern>,<start_address>,<end_address>,<memory_boundary>, <bytes_to_print>,<matches_to_display> This command searches for <pattern> in the memory segment from <start_address> to <end_address> (both inclusive), and shows the number of matching addresses you specify with <matches_to_display> . You can also display the next <bytes_to_print> bytes for the last match. By default, the find command searches for the pattern at every byte in the range. If you know the pattern is aligned to a particular byte boundary, you can specify <memory_boundary> to search every <memory_boundary> bytes. For example, if you specify a <memory_boundary> of \"4\", the command searches for the pattern every 4 bytes. findnext findptr <pattern>,<start_address>,<end_address>,<memory_boundary>,<bytes_to_print>,<matches_to_display> Finds the next instance of the last string passed to find or findptr . It repeats the previous find or findptr command, depending on which one was issued last, starting from the last match. Searches memory for the given pointer. findptr searches for <pattern> as a pointer in the memory segment from <start_address> to <end_address> (both inclusive), and shows the number of matching addresses you specify with <matches_to_display> . You can also display the next <bytes_to_print> bytes for the last match. By default, the findptr command searches for the pattern at every byte in the range. If you know the pattern is aligned to a particular byte boundary, you can specify <memory_boundary> to search every <memory_boundary> bytes. For example, if you specify a <memory_boundary> of \"4\", the command searches for the pattern every 4 bytes. help help [<command_name>] Shows information for a specific command. If you supply no parameters, help shows the complete list of supported commands. history history|his [-r][<N>] Recalls and displays the history of commands that you have run. The default behavior is to display the 20 most recent commands. If you use the argument <N> , then N commands are displayed. For example, if you run history 35, then the 35 most recent commands are displayed. You can also use the -r option with <N> to run the Nth most recent command in your history. Using the -r option alone runs the most recent command in your history. info thread info thread [*|all|<native_thread_ID>|<zos_TCB_address>] Displays information about Java and native threads. The following information is displayed for all threads (\"*\"), or the specified thread: Thread id Registers Stack sections Thread frames: procedure name and base pointer Thread properties: list of native thread properties and their values. For example: thread priority. Associated Java thread, if applicable: Name of Java thread Address of associated java.lang.Thread object State (shown in JVMTI and java.lang.Thread.State formats) The monitor the thread is waiting for Thread frames: base pointer, method, and filename:line If you supply no parameters, the command shows information about the current thread. info system Displays the following information about the system that produced the core dump: Amount of memory Operating system Virtual machine or virtual machines present info class info class [<class_name>] [-sort:<name>|<count>|<size>] Displays the inheritance chain and other data for a given class. If a class name is passed to info class, the following information is shown about that class: - Name - ID - Superclass ID - Class loader ID - Modifiers - Number of instances and total size of instances - Inheritance chain - Fields with modifiers (and values for static fields) - Methods with modifiers If no parameters are passed to `info class`, the following information is shown: - The number of instances of each class. - The total size of all instances of each class. - The class name - The total number of instances of all classes. - The total size of all objects. The `sort` option allows the list of classes to be sorted by name (default), by number of instances of each class, or by the total size of instances of each class. info proc Displays threads, command-line arguments, environment variables, and shared modules of the current process. To view the shared modules used by a process, use the info sym command. info jitm Displays JIT compiled methods and their addresses: Method name and signature Method start address Method end address info lock Displays a list of available monitors and locked objects. info sym Displays a list of available modules. For each process in the address spaces, this command shows a list of module sections for each module, their start and end addresses, names, and sizes. info mmap info mmap [<address>] [-verbose] [-sort:<size>|<address>] Displays a summary list of memory sections in the process address space, with start and end address, size, and properties. If an address parameter is specified, the results show details of only the memory section containing the address. If -verbose is specified, full details of the properties of each memory section are displayed. The -sort option allows the list of memory sections to be sorted by size or by start address (default). info heap info heap [*|<heap_name>*] If no parameters are passed to this command, the heap names and heap sections are shown. Using either \"*\" or a heap name shows the following information about all heaps or the specified heap: Heap name (Heap size and occupancy) Heap sections Section name Section size Whether the section is shared Whether the section is executable Whether the section is read only heapdump heapdump [<heaps>] Generates a Java heap dump to a file. You can select which Java heaps to dump by listing the heap names, separated by spaces. To see which heaps are available, use the info heap command. By default, all Java heaps are dumped. hexdump hexdump <hex_address> <bytes_to_print> Displays a section of memory in a hexdump-like format. Displays <bytes_to_print> bytes of memory contents starting from <hex_address> . + Displays the next section of memory in hexdump-like format. This command is used with the hexdump command to enable easy scrolling forwards through memory. The previous hexdump command is repeated, starting from the end of the previous one. - Displays the previous section of memory in hexdump-like format. This command is used with the hexdump command to enable easy scrolling backwards through memory. The previous hexdump command is repeated, starting from a position before the previous one. pwd Displays the current working directory, which is the directory where log files are stored. quit Exits the core file viewing tool; any log files that are currently open are closed before exit. set heapdump Configures Heapdump generation settings. set heapdump <options> where <options> are: phd : Set the Heapdump format to Portable Heapdump, which is the default. txt : Set the Heapdump format to classic. file <file> : Set the destination of the Heapdump. multiplefiles [on|off] : If multiplefiles is set to on, each Java heap in the system dump is written to a separate file. If multiplefiles is set to off, all Java heaps are written to the same file. The default is off. set logging set logging <options> Configures logging settings, starts logging, or stops logging. This parameter enables the results of commands to be logged to a file, where <options> are: [on|off] : Turns logging on or off. (Default: off) file <filename> : Sets the file to log to. The path is relative to the directory returned by the pwd command, unless an absolute path is specified. If the file is set while logging is on, the change takes effect the next time logging is started. Not set by default. overwrite [on|off] : Turns overwriting of the specified log file on or off. When overwrite is off, log messages are appended to the log file. When overwrite is on, the log file is overwritten after the set logging command. (Default: off) redirect [on|off] : Turns redirecting to file on or off, with off being the default. When logging is set to on: A value of on for redirect sends non-error output only to the log file. A value of off for redirect sends non-error output to the console and log file. Redirect must be turned off before logging can be turned off. (Default: off) show heapdump Displays the current Heapdump generation settings. show logging Displays the current logging settings: set_logging = [on|off] set_logging_file = set_logging_overwrite = [on|off] set_logging_redirect = [on|off] current_logging_file = The file that is currently being logged to might be different from set_logging_file, if that value was changed after logging was started. whatis <hex_address> Displays information about whatis stored at the given memory address, <hex_address> . This command examines the memory location at <hex_address> and tries to find out more information about this address. For example: > whatis 0x8e76a8 heap #1 - name: Default@19fce8 0x8e76a8 is within heap segment: 8b0000 -- cb0000 0x8e76a8 is start of an object of type java/lang/Thread x/ (examine) Passes the number of items to display and the unit size, as listed in the following table, to the sub-command. For example, x/12bd . Abbreviation Unit Size b Byte 8-bit h Half word 16-bit w Word 32-bit g Giant word 64-bit This command is similar to the use of the x/ command in gdb, including the use of defaults. x/J [ <class_name> | <0xaddr> ] Displays information about a particular object, or all objects of a class. If <class_name> is supplied, all static fields with their values are shown, followed by all objects of that class with their fields and values. If an object address (in hex) is supplied, static fields for that object's class are not shown; the other fields and values of that object are printed along with its address. Note: This command ignores the number of items and unit size passed to it by the x/ command. x/D < 0xaddr > Displays the integer at the specified address, adjusted for the hardware architecture this dump file is from. For example, the file might be from a big endian architecture. This command uses the number of items and unit size passed to it by the x/ command. x/X < 0xaddr > Displays the hex value of the bytes at the specified address, adjusted for the hardware architecture this dump file is from. For example, the file might be from a big endian architecture. Note: This command uses the number of items and unit size passed to it by the x/ command. x/K < 0xaddr > Where the size is defined by the pointer size of the architecture, this parameter shows the value of each section of memory. The output is adjusted for the hardware architecture this dump file is from, starting at the specified address. It also displays a module with a module section and an offset from the start of that module section in memory if the pointer points to that module section. If no symbol is found, it displays a \"*\" and an offset from the current address if the pointer points to an address in 4KB (4096 bytes) of the current address. Although this command can work on an arbitrary section of memory, it is probably more useful on a section of memory that refers to a stack frame. To find the memory section of a thread stack frame, use the info thread command. Note: This command uses the number of items and unit size passed to it by the x/ command.

Because of this behavior, more than one context might be displayed when you start jdmpview . To switch context, type context <n> , where <n> is the context value for the dump you want to investigate. On z/OS, a system dump can contain multiple address spaces and an address space can contain multiple VM instances. In this case, the context allows you to select the address space and VM instance within the dump file. The following z/OS example shows address spaces ( ASID ), with two JVMs occupying address space 0x73 (context 5 and 6). The current context is 5 ( CTX:5> ), shown with an asterisk. To view the JVM in context 6, you can switch by specifying context 6 .

For example, a heap dump doesn't contain the information requested by the info system command, but does contain information requested by the info class command. If you are viewing a dump where there are a large number of objects on the heap, you can speed up the performance of jdmpview by ensuring that your system has enough memory available and does not need to page memory to disk. To achieve this, start jdmpview with a larger heap size by specifying the -Xmx option. Use the -J option to pass the -Xmx command line option to the JVM.

For example: jdmpview -core mycore.dmp info class When specifying jdmpview commands that accept a wildcard parameter, you must replace the wildcard symbol with ALL to prevent the shell interpreting the wildcard symbol. For example, in interactive mode, the command info thread * must be specified in the following way: jdmpview -core mycore.dmp info thread ALL Batch mode is controlled with the following command line options: Option Explanation -cmdfile <path to command file> A file that contains a series of jdmpview commands, which are read and run sequentially. -charset <character set name> The character set for the commands specified in -cmdfile (name must be a supported charset as defined in java.nio.charset.Charset.

The formatter requires the TraceFormat.dat and J9TraceFormat.dat files, which contain the formatting templates. The formatter produces a file that contains header information about the VM that produced the binary trace file, a list of threads for which trace points were produced, and the formatted trace points with their time stamp, thread ID, trace point ID, and trace point data. Syntax To use the trace formatter on a binary trace file type: traceformat <input_file> [<output_file>] <parameters> Where <input_file> is the name of the binary trace file to be formatted, and <output_file> is the name of the output file. If you do not specify an output file, the output file is called input_file.fmt . The size of the heap that is needed to format the trace is directly proportional to the number of threads present in the trace file. For large numbers of threads the formatter might run out of memory, generating the error OutOfMemoryError . In this case, increase the heap size by using the -Xmx option. Parameters The following <parameters> are available with the trace formatter: Option Explanation -datfile=<file1.dat>[,<file2.dat>] A comma-separated list of trace formatting data files. By default, the following files are used:$JAVA_HOME/lib/J9TraceFormat.dat and $JAVA_HOME/lib/TraceFormat.dat -format_time=yes|no Specifies whether to format the time stamps into human readable form. The default is yes . -help Displays usage information. -indent Indents trace messages at each Entry trace point and outdents trace messages at each Exit trace point. The default is not to indent the messages. -summary Prints summary information to the screen without generating an output file. -threads=<thread id>[,<thread id>]...

To learn more about support for OpenJ9 releases, including OpenJDK levels and platform support, see Supported environments OpenSSL is now supported for improved native cryptographic performance OpenSSL is a native open source cryptographic toolkit for Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols, which provides improved cryptographic performance compared to the in-built OpenJDK Java cryptographic implementation. The OpenSSL V1.1.x implementation is enabled by default and supported for the Digest, CBC, and GCM algorithms. Binaries obtained from AdoptOpenJDK include OpenSSL v1.1.x (see Note). For more information about tuning the OpenSSL implementation, see Performance tuning . Note: Currently, OpenSSL is not bundled as part of the AdoptOpenJDK AIX binary due to an unresolved problem. Changes to the location of the default shared cache and cache snapshot directory To increase security, the default shared classes cache directory is changed on non-Windows platforms from /tmp/javasharedresources/ to the user's home directory, unless you specify -Xshareclasses:groupAccess . If you use the groupAccess suboption, the default directory is unchanged because some members of the group might not have access to the user home directory. Note: For persistent caches, the shared classes cache directory cannot be on an NFS mount. If your user home directory is on an NFS mount, either move it or use the -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=<directory> suboption to specify a different directory for the cache. In general, caches cannot be shared across different Java releases, so you cannot re-use a cache that was created by a previous level of Java 11; if you use the name and cacheDir suboptions to specify an existing cache, the VM attempts to delete the cache and create a new one. However, on Windows, the cache cannot be deleted if it is in use, in which case the VM continues to use the existing cache. You can find and remove old caches or snapshots by using the following command-line options: For persistent caches: - -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=/tmp/javasharedresources/,listAllCaches to find the cache - -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=/tmp/javasharedresources/,name=<cacheName>,destroy to remove the cache For nonpersistent caches or snapshots: - -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=/tmp,listAllCaches to find the item - -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=/tmp,name=<snapshotName>,destroySnapshot to remove the item New class data sharing suboptions -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly : disables caching of classes that are loaded by non-bootstrap class loaders. This suboption also enables the nonfatal suboption, which allows the VM to start even if there was an error creating the shared classes cache. -Xshareclasses:fatal : prevents the VM from starting if there was an error creating the shared classes cache. You might want to enable this suboption when using the -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly suboption, to troubleshoot problems when creating the cache. Container awareness in the OpenJ9 VM is now enabled by default When using container technology, applications are typically run on their own and do not need to compete for memory. If the VM detects that it is running in a container environment, and a memory limit for the container is set, the VM automatically adjusts the maximum default Java heap size. In earlier releases, this behavior was enabled by setting the -XX:+UseContainerSupport option. This setting is now the default. For more information about the Java heap size set for a container, see -XX:[+|-]UseContainerSupport . Pause-less garbage collection mode is now available on Linux x86 platforms Pause-less garbage collection mode is aimed at large heap, response-time sensitive applications. When enabled, the VM attempts to reduce GC pause times. In earlier releases, pause-less garbage collection mode ( -Xgc:concurrentScavenge ) was available only on IBM z14 hardware. This mode is now available on 64-bit x86 Linux platforms. Restrictions: The Generational Concurrent ( gencon ) garbage collection policy must be used. (This is the default policy.) Compressed references must be used. See -Xcompressedrefs . Compressed references are enabled by default when the maximum heap size ( -Xmx ) \u2264 57 GB. The concurrent scavenge option is ignored if the maximum heap size is > 57 GB. You can now restrict identity hash codes to non-negative values OpenJ9 allows both positive and negative identity hashcodes, which can be problematic if your program (incorrectly) assumes hashcodes can only be positive. However, you can now use the -XX:[+|-]PositiveIdentityHash option to limit identity hash codes to non-negative values.

For more information about the issue, see #4530 . You can turn off the Digest algorithm by setting the -Djdk.nativeDigest system property to false . A new release of OpenJ9 (0.12.1) is available that disables the Digest algorithm by default. Features and changes Binaries and supported environments OpenJ9 release 0.12.0 provides support for OpenJDK 8 with OpenJ9 and OpenJDK 11 with OpenJ9 . In this release support is extended to the 64-bit macOS\u00ae platform on OpenJDK with OpenJ9. Builds for all platforms are available from the AdoptOpenJDK project at the following links: OpenJDK 8 with OpenJ9 OpenJDK 11 with OpenJ9 To learn more about support for OpenJ9 releases, including OpenJDK levels and platform support, see Supported environments . Improved flexibility for managing the size of the JIT code cache The JIT code cache stores the native code of compiled Java\u2122 methods. By default, the size of the code cache is 256 MB for a 64-bit VM and 64 MB for a 31/32-bit VM. In earlier releases the size of the code cache could be increased from the default value by using the -Xcodecachetotal command line option. In this release the size can also be decreased by using this option, with a minimum size of 2 MB. The size of the JIT code cache also affects the size of the JIT data cache, which holds metadata about compiled methods. If you use the -Xcodecachetotal option to manage the size of the code cache, the size of the data cache is adjusted by the same proportion. For more information, see -Xcodecachetotal . Idle-tuning is enabled by default when OpenJ9 runs in a docker container In an earlier release, a set of idle-tuning options were introduced to manage the footprint of the Java heap when the OpenJ9 VM is in an idle state. These options could be set manually on the command line. In this release, the following two options are enabled by default when OpenJ9 is running in a container: -XX:[+|-]IdleTuningGcOnIdle , which runs a garbage collection cycle and releases free memory pages back to the operating system when the VM state is set to idle. -XX:[+|-]IdleTuningCompactOnIdle , which compacts the object heap to reduce fragmentation when the VM state is set to idle. By default, the VM must be idle for 180 seconds before the status is set to idle. To control the wait time before an idle state is set, use the -XX:IdleTuningMinIdleWaitTime option. To turn off idle detection, set the value to 0 . Changes to default shared classes cache directory permissions (not Windows) If you do not use the cachDirPerm suboption to specify permissions for a shared classes cache directory, and the cache directory is not the /tmp/javasharedresources default, the following changes apply: When creating a new cache directory, the default permissions are now stricter. If the cache directory already exists, permissions are now unchanged (previously, when a cache was opened using this directory, the permissions would be set to 0777). For more information, see -Xshareclasses . OpenSSL is now supported for improved native cryptographic performance OpenSSL is a native open source cryptographic toolkit for Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols, which provides improved cryptographic performance compared to the in-built OpenJDK Java cryptographic implementation. The OpenSSL V1.1.x implementation is enabled by default and supported for the Digest, CBC, and GCM algorithms. Binaries obtained from AdoptOpenJDK include OpenSSL v1.1.x (see Note). For more information about tuning the OpenSSL implementation, see Performance tuning . Note: OpenJDK 8 with OpenJ9 includes OpenSSL support since v 0.11.0. Currently, OpenSSL is not bundled as part of the AdoptOpenJDK AIX binaries due to an unresolved problem. Improved support for pause-less garbage collection Concurrent scavenge mode is now supported on 64-bit Windows operating systems. In Eclipse OpenJ9 v 0.11.0, support was added for -Xgc:concurrentScavenge on Linux x86-64 virtual machines that use compressed references. In this release, support is now available for Linux x86-64 large-heap virtual machines (non-compressed references). For more information, see the -Xgc:concurrentScavenge option. RSA algorithm support for OpenSSL OpenSSL v1.1 support for the RSA algorithm is added in this release, providing improved cryptographic performance. OpenSSL support is enabled by default. If you want to turn off support for the RSA algorithm, set the -Djdk.nativeRSA system property to false . IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS is deprecated The VM environment variable IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS is deprecated and is replaced by OPENJ9_JAVA_OPTIONS . IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS will be removed in a future release. For more information about the use of this variable, see the general options in Environment variables . Full release information To see a complete list of changes between Eclipse OpenJ9 v 0.11.0 and v 0.12.0 releases, see the Release notes . Version 0.12.1 The following change is implemented since v 0.12.0: By default, OpenJ9 provides native cryptographic acceleration using OpenSSL v 1.1.x for the Digest, CBC, GCM, and RSA algorithms. Under certain circumstances acceleration of the Digest algorithm was found to cause a segmentation error. Cryptographic acceleration of the Digest algorithm is now turned off by default. The system property -Djdk.nativeDigest cannot be used to turn on support. This property is ignored by the VM.

To learn more about support for OpenJ9 releases, including OpenJDK levels and platform support, see Supported environments . Performance improvements for JVMTI watched fields OpenJ9 version 0.14.0 introduced the -XX:[+|-]JITInlineWatches option, which, when enabled, turned on experimental JIT operations to improve the performance of JVMTI watched fields. Following successful results, this option is now enabled by default. This option is now also supported on z/OS\u00ae and Linux for IBM Z\u00ae, in addition to x86 platforms (Windows\u00ae, macOS\u00ae, and Linux). Support for pause-less garbage collection on IBM Z systems Support for Concurrent scavenge mode is now extended to Linux on IBM Z\u00ae systems and z/OS\u00ae. For more information, see -Xgc:concurrentScavenge . ChaCha20 algorithm support for OpenSSL The ChaCha20 and ChaCha20-Poly1305 algorithms can now use OpenSSL on Java 11. For more information, see -Djdk.nativeChaCha20 . OpenSSL Digest algorithm disabled Due to issue #5611 , the Digest algorithm is disabled. This algorithm was disabled for Java 8 and 11 in release 0.14.2, which did not support Java 12. Support for OpenJDK HotSpot options For compatibility, the -XX:OnOutOfMemoryError OpenJDK Hotspot option is now supported by OpenJ9. Support for Transparent Huge Pages (THP) The VM now supports the allocation of huge pages on Linux when you use the madvise ( /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled ) setting. To enable this feature, set -XX:+TransparentHugePage on the command line when you start your application. This option is currently not enabled by default. Support for low-overhead heap profiling JEP 331 provides a mechanism for sampling Java heap allocations with a low overhead via the JVM Tool Interface (JVMTI). Restrictions: JEP 331 is implemented for OpenJ9 with the following limitations: The balanced and metronome garbage collection policies are not supported. The JEP331 JVMTI agent and the Health Center agent both set a sampling interval, which by default is different. If both agents are used at the same time the Health Center agent will get incorrect results, unless the sampling intervals are adjusted to use the same value. New Java memory map tool The Java memory map (jmap) tool is similar to the HotSpot tool of the same name, and can be used to print statistics about classes on the heap, including the number of objects and their aggregate size. For usage information, see Java memory map (jmap) tool . Automatically setting an initial heap size OpenJ9 can now learn and set an appropriate initial heap size for an application as an alternative to a user manually sizing and setting an -Xms value. The VM records the size of the heap when startup processing ends, writing this data to the shared classes cache. An average value is set over a few restarts, helping to ensure that the value used for the initial heap size is as accurate as possible. The heap size recorded is specific to the application command line, therefore a different hint is stored for every unique command line.

Heuristics for compaction during idle GC OpenJ9 now automatically compacts the heap when certain triggers are met during idle garbage collection (GC). As a result of this change, -XX:[+|-]IdleTuningCompactOnIdle is deprecated. Change in shared classes behavior for checking timestamps of jar or zip files In earlier releases, the shared classes cache checks timestamps of jar or zip files every time a class is loaded and reloads a class if the timestamp has changed. This behavior is now changed; timestamps are checked only when zip or jar files are added to class loaders and used for the first time to look for a class, which can improve class-loading performance. If jar or zip files are updated after a class loader starts loading classes from them, an older version of the class might be loaded from the shared classes cache. To revert to the behavior of earlier releases, set the -Xshareclasses:checkURLTimestamps option on the command line when you start your application.

The latest builds of OpenJDK with OpenJ9 for Java 8 and 11 at the AdoptOpenJDK community are for Eclipse OpenJ9 release 0.15.2. Features mentioned in these release notes are not available in these builds. Although it might be possible to build an OpenJDK 8 or OpenJDK 11 with OpenJ9 0.16.0, testing at the project is not complete and therefore support for any of these features is not available. To learn more about support for OpenJ9 releases, including OpenJDK levels and platform support, see Supported environments . Some class data sharing is enabled by default Class data sharing is enabled by default for bootstrap classes, unless your application is running in a container. You can use the -Xshareclasses option to change the default behavior, including using -Xshareclasses:none to disable all class data sharing. For more information, see Class data sharing . Automatic setting of initial heap size is enabled by default OpenJ9 version 0.15.1 introduced the -XX:[+|-]UseGCStartupHints option, which, when enabled, turned on the automatic learning and setting of an appropriate heap size for an application. This option is now enabled by default. Option to share VM anonymous classes Prior to version 0.16.0, anonymous classes, those created by Unsafe.defineAnonymousClass , were not stored in the shared classes cache. They are now stored there by default, which means they are available for ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation, potentially improving startup performance. A new command, -XX:[+|-]ShareAnonymousClasses , is introduced that enables you to stop anonymous classes being stored in the shared classes cache. Performance improvements for JVMTI watched fields on Power Systems OpenJ9 version 0.14.0 introduced the -XX:[+|-]JITInlineWatches option, which turns on JIT operations to improve the performance of JVMTI watched fields. This option, which was enabled by default in version 0.15.1, is now also supported on AIX\u00ae and Linux on Power Systems\u2122. Linux\u00ae on x86: Support for Transparent Huge Pages (THP) When you use the madvise ( /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled ) setting on Linux on x86 systems, THP is now enabled by default. To disable this feature, set -XX:-TransparentHugePage on the command line when you start your application. The THP setting on other systems remains disabled by default when you use madvise , but can be enabled by setting -XX:+TransparentHugePage . New jcmd tool For compatibility with the reference implementation, OpenJ9 now includes an independent implementation of the jcmd tool for running diagnostic commands on a VM. For more information, see Java diagnostic command tool . Changes to the shared classes cache generation number The format of classes that are stored in the shared classes cache is changed, which causes the JVM to create a new shared classes cache rather than re-creating or reusing an existing cache. To save space, you can remove all existing shared caches unless they are in use by an earlier release. As a result of the format change, a layer column now appears in the output of the -Xshareclasses:listAllCaches option. This change is to support a future enhancement.

To learn more about support for OpenJ9 releases, including OpenJDK levels and platform support, see Supported environments . New shared classes cache suboptions for layered caches (Experimental, 64-bit only) New suboptions are available for creating layered caches, where a cache builds on another cache with the same name. You can use these suboptions to save space when building a Docker container, for example. Note: Because these suboptions are experimental, do not use them in a production environment. The new options are: createLayer layer=<number> (see this section for more information about layered caches) printTopLayerStats destroyAllLayers New shared classes cache suboption to skip disk space check When creating a persistent shared classes cache, the OpenJ9 VM checks that there is sufficient disk space available on the file system. For file systems that do not support the checking of free space, you can set the -Xshareclasses:noPersistentDiskSpaceCheck option, which causes the VM to skip the space checking operation. If there isn't enough disk space available when the cache is written, a SIGBUS or SIGSEGV signal occurs and the VM ends. For more information, see the -Xshareclasses:noPersistentDiskSpaceCheck option. Option to share 'Unsafe' classes Classes created through Unsafe.defineClass are now stored by default in the shared classes cache. You can use the -XX:-ShareUnsafeClasses option to change the default behavior. For more information, see -XX:[+|-]ShareUnsafeClasses . Option to record class relationships in the verifier A new command line option -XX:+ClassRelationshipVerifier allows you to record class relationships in the verifier, which avoids unnecessary class loading and reduces VM startup time. This is a new approach to bytecode verification that delays validating the relationships between classes until the classes are required to be loaded for a program's execution thus loading only those classes that are needed. For more information, see -XX:[+|-]ClassRelationshipVerifier . Support for the IBM z15 processor This release adds JIT compiler support for exploiting z15 instructions. Digest algorithm is re-enabled Issue #5611 is fixed, so support for the Digest algorithm is re-enabled. For more information about this support, see Cryptographic operations . Direct Dump Reader (DDR) VM restriction removed Prior to this version, you had to use a 32-bit VM to look at a 32-bit core, and a 64-bit VM to look at a 64-bit core when using DDR. This restriction has now been removed. The format of the HOOKS section of a Java dump has changed The format of the HOOKS section of a Java dump, which shows internal VM event callbacks, has changed: Recorded times have been changed from milliseconds to microseconds to provide increased precision. A new field, 3HKTOTALTIME , is included, which gives the total duration of previous events. The hook data is now reset after each Java dump. For more information and an example of the new format, see Java dump: HOOKS LUDCL caching disabled by default By caching the Latest User Defined Class Loader (LUDCL), Java applications that use deserialization extensively can see a performance improvement.

The idle tuning feature is now supported on Linux running on Power\u00ae Systems and IBM Z\u00ae Systems. A new Garbage Collection (GC) policy is available that performs no housekeeping. A command line option is provided to automatically set a larger Java heap size for applications that run in containers. You can now specify the maximum Java heap size as a percentage value. The shared classes feature now supports nested jar files. System dump data can now be read to help diagnose problems on Linux and Windows platforms. There are notable changes to the java.lang.String class. There are notable changes to the com.ibm.oti.shared.SharedClassCacheInfo class. Features and changes Binaries and supported platforms The following additional OpenJDK binaries that contain the OpenJ9 VM are now available from the AdoptOpenJDK community: OpenJDK version 10 OpenJDK version 8 for 32-bit Windows OpenJDK version 8 for x86 64-bit Linux (Large Heap) for Java heaps >57 GB. Complete platform support information for OpenJ9 can be found in Supported environments Idle tuning feature The idle tuning feature in OpenJ9 keeps your memory footprint small by releasing unused memory back to the operating system. Prior to Eclipse v 0.9.0 this feature was available only on Linux x86 architectures with the gencon garbage collection policy. From v 0.9.0, this feature is now available on Linux for IBM POWER\u00ae and IBM Z\u00ae architectures. For more information about this feature, see the following command line options, which control this behavior: -XX:[+|-]IdleTuningCompactOnIdle -XX:[+|-]IdleTuningGcOnIdle -XX:IdleTuningMinIdleWaitTime -XX:IdleTuningMinFreeHeapOnIdle The following blog post describes the benefits of using this feature: Are you still paying for unused memory when your Java app is idle? New GC policy A new GC policy is introduced for JEP 318: Epsilon: A No-Op Garbage Collector . When this policy is enabled, the Java object heap is expanded in the normal way until the limit is reached, but memory is not reclaimed through garbage collection. When the limit is reached the VM shuts down. This JEP has a number of use cases including short-lived applications and certain test scenarios. To enable this policy you can use one of the following options: -Xgcpolicy:nogc -XX:+UseNoGC Modifying the default Java heap size for applications that run in containers When using container technology, applications are typically run on their own and do not need to compete for memory. In this release, changes are introduced to detect when OpenJ9 is running inside a container. If your application is running in a container and you want the VM to allocate a larger fraction of memory to the Java heap, set the -XX:+UseContainerSupport option on the command line. The following table shows the maximum Java heap size that gets set, depending on the memory available: Physical memory <size> Maximum Java heap size Less than 1 GB 50% <size> 1 GB - 2 GB <size> - 512M Greater than 2 GB 75% <size> The default heap size for containers only takes affect when running in a container environment and when -XX:+UseContainerSupport is specified, which is expected to be the default in a future release. Specifying the maximum Java heap size as a percentage value OpenJ9 now supports setting the heap size as a percentage of the physical memory. The following OpenJDK options are recognized and can be set for the VM: -XX:MaxRAMPercentage -XX:InitialRAMPercentage To understand how to set these options, see -XX:InitialRAMPercentage / -XX:MaxRAMPercentage . If your application is running in a container and you have specified -XX:+UseContainerSupport , as described in Modifying the default Java heap size for applications that run in containers , both the default heap size for containers and the -XX:MaxRAMPercentage and -XX:InitialRAMPercentage options are based on the available container memory. Shared classes support for nested jar files Changes are made to the com.ibm.oti.shared API to support nested jar files. Direct Dump Reader enabled on Linux and Windows Direct Dump Reader (DDR) support is now enabled for the OpenJ9 VM on all Linux architectures and on Windows. The DDR code enables the VM to read system dump data by using the OpenJ9 Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java (DTFJ) API or the jdmpview tool. If you use the Eclipse Memory Analyzer Tool (MAT) , you can also analyze OpenJ9 or IBM VMs by installing the DTFJ plugin. (Install from the Eclipse Help menu; Install New Software > Work with \"IBM Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java\" > IBM Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools > Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java) You must use a 32-bit VM to look at a 32-bit core, and a 64-bit VM to look at a 64-bit core. This restriction will be fixed in a later version of OpenJ9. Changes to the java.lang.String class To match the behavior of OpenJDK, java.lang.String no longer has a count field, which changes the way that String.subString() works compared to Java 8. String.subString() now copies the value array. Similarly, StringBuffer and StringBuilder do not share the value array with any String created by toString() . For performance and compatibility with the new String object layout, the OpenJ9 implementations of StringBuffer and StringBuilder have been deprecated in favor of the OpenJDK implementations. Changes to the SharedClassCacheInfo class SharedClassCacheInfo.getCacheJVMLevel() used to return the JVMLEVEL constant that maps to a Java version number, for example JVMLEVEL_JAVA8 . This call now returns only the Java version number, for example 10 for Java 10.

AOT compilation allows the compilation of Java\u2122 classes into native code for subsequent executions of the same program. The AOT compiler works with the class data sharing framework. The AOT compiler generates native code dynamically while an application runs and caches any generated AOT code in the shared data cache. Subsequent VMs that execute the method can load and use the AOT code from the shared data cache without incurring the performance decrease experienced with JIT-compiled native code. Performance Because AOT code must persist over different program executions, AOT-generated code does not perform as well as JIT-generated code. AOT code usually performs better than interpreted code. In a VM without an AOT compiler or with the AOT compiler disabled, the JIT compiler selectively compiles frequently used methods into optimized native code. There is a time cost associated with compiling methods because the JIT compiler operates while the application is running. Because methods begin by being interpreted and most JIT compilations occur during startup, startup times can be increased. Startup performance can be improved by using the shared AOT code to provide native code without compiling. There is a small time cost to load the AOT code for a method from the shared data cache and bind it into a running program. The time cost is low compared to the time it takes the JIT compiler to compile that method. Default behavior The AOT compiler is enabled by default, but is only active when shared classes are enabled. By default, shared classes are disabled so that no AOT activity occurs.

By default, no checks are made. There are many scan, verify, and miscellaneous suboptions available. If you do not specify any, all possible scan and verify suboptions are run, plus the miscellaneous verbose and check suboptions. For more information, see the output of -Xcheck:gc:help . jni -Xcheck:jni[:help][:<option>] Runs additional checks for JNI functions. By default, no checks are made. For more information, see the output of -Xcheck:jni:help . memory -Xcheck:memory[:<option>] Identifies memory leaks inside the VM by using strict checks that cause the VM to exit on failure. Restriction: You cannot include -Xcheck:memory in the options file (see -Xoptionsfile ). The available parameters are as follows: :all (Default if no options specified) Enables checking of all allocated and freed blocks on every free and allocate call. This check of the heap is the most thorough. It typically causes the VM to exit on nearly all memory-related problems soon after they are caused. This option has the greatest affect on performance. :callsite=<number_of_allocations> Displays callsite information every <number_of_allocations> . De-allocations are not counted. Callsite information is presented in a table with separate information for each callsite. Statistics include: The number and size of allocation and free requests since the last report. The number of the allocation request responsible for the largest allocation from each site. Callsites are presented as sourcefile:linenumber for C code and assembly function name for assembler code. Callsites that do not provide callsite information are accumulated into an \"unknown\" entry. :failat=<number_of_allocations> Causes memory allocation to fail (return NULL) after <number_of_allocations> . For example, setting <number_of_allocations> to 13 causes the 14th allocation to return NULL. De-allocations are not counted. Use this option to ensure that VM code reliably handles allocation failures. This option is useful for checking allocation site behavior rather than setting a specific allocation limit. :ignoreUnknownBlocks Ignores attempts to free memory that was not allocated using the -Xcheck:memory tool. Instead, the -Xcheck:memory statistics that are printed out at the end of a run indicates the number of \"unknown\" blocks that were freed. :mprotect=[top|bottom] Locks pages of memory on supported platforms, causing the program to stop if padding before or after the allocated block is accessed for reads or writes. An extra page is locked on each side of the block returned to the user. If you do not request an exact multiple of one page of memory, a region on one side of your memory is not locked. The top and bottom options control which side of the memory area is locked. top aligns your memory blocks to the top of the page (lower address), so buffer underruns result in an application failure. bottom aligns your memory blocks to the bottom of the page (higher address) so buffer overruns result in an application failure. Standard padding scans detect buffer underruns when using top and buffer overruns when using bottom . :nofree Keeps a list of blocks that are already used instead of freeing memory. This list, and the list of currently allocated blocks, is checked for memory corruption on every allocation and deallocation. Use this option to detect a dangling pointer (a pointer that is \"dereferenced\" after its target memory is freed). This option cannot be reliably used with long-running applications (such as WebSphere\u00ae Application Server), because \"freed\" memory is never reused or released by the VM. :noscan Checks for blocks that are not freed. This option has little effect on performance, but memory corruption is not detected. This option is compatible only with subAllocator , callsite , and callsitesmall . :quick Enables block padding only and is used to detect basic heap corruption. Every allocated block is padded with sentinel bytes, which are verified on every allocate and free. Block padding is faster than the default of checking every block, but is not as effective. :skipto=<number_of_allocations> Causes the program to check only on allocations that occur after <number_of_allocations> . De-allocations are not counted. Use this option to speed up VM startup when early allocations are not causing the memory problem. The VM performs approximately 250+ allocations during startup. :subAllocator[=<size_in_MB>] Allocates a dedicated and contiguous region of memory for all VM allocations. This option helps to determine if user JNI code or the VM is responsible for memory corruption. Corruption in the VM subAllocator heap suggests that the VM is causing the problem; corruption in the user-allocated memory suggests that user code is corrupting memory. Typically, user and VM allocated memory are interleaved. :zero Newly allocated blocks are set to 0 instead of being filled with the 0xE7E7xxxxxxxxE7E7 pattern. Setting these blocks to 0 helps you to determine whether a callsite is expecting zeroed memory, in which case the allocation request is followed by memset(pointer, 0, size) . vm -Xcheck:vm[:<option>] Performs additional checks on the VM.

The dumps produced are controlled by dump agents, which are initialized when the OpenJ9 virtual machine (VM) starts. The default settings for the dump agents are sufficient for most cases. However, you can use the -Xdump option on the command line to fine tune the dump agent settings. For example, you can use the -Xdump option to add and remove dump agents for various VM events, update default dump settings, and limit the number of dumps that are produced. A large set of options and suboptions are available for controlling dumps, which provides a lot of flexibility. Xdump Option Builder Use the Xdump Option Builder tool to help you specify the correct options and avoid incompatibilities. Syntax -Xdump:<parameter> The following table lists the help options for -Xdump , which provide usage and configuration information: Command Result -Xdump:help Displays general dump help. -Xdump:events Lists available trigger events. -Xdump:request Lists additional VM requests. -Xdump:tokens Lists recognized label tokens. -Xdump:what Shows registered agents on startup. -Xdump:<agent>:help Displays dump agent usage information. The following options can be used to control the production of diagnostic data: Parameter Result -Xdump:none Removes all default dump agents and any preceding dump options. -Xdump:dynamic Enable support for pluggable agents -Xdump:nofailover Discards dumps when the default or specified dump location is full. -Xdump:directory=<path> Specifies a directory for all dump types to be written to. This directory path is prefixed to the path of all non-absolute dump file names, including the file names for the default dump agents. -Xdump:suspendwith=<offset> Modifies the signal that is used to suspend VM threads while a dump file is being written. Use <offset> to change the default signal number. (Linux\u00ae only) -Xdump:<agent>:<suboptions> Provides detailed suboptions per dump agent that provide more granular control. Dump agents can be configured at a very granular level by specifying suboptions. The <events> suboption is the prime trigger mechanism. The full set of suboptions are listed in the following table: Dump agent suboptions Result -Xdump:<agent>:none Removes the dump agent. -Xdump:<agent>:defaults Prints the default options for the dump agent. -Xdump:<agent>:events=<events> Triggers a dump agent when a specific event occurs. -Xdump:<agent>:exec=<command> Starts an external application for the dump agent. -Xdump:<agent>:file=<filename> Specifies where to write the dump for the dump agent. -Xdump:<agent>:filter=<filter> Filters dumps by wildcards or events. -Xdump:<agent>:msg_filter=<filter> Filters on text strings within an exception message. -Xdump:<agent>:opts=<options> Used by specific dump agents to select the type of dump file to produce. -Xdump:<agent>:priority=<0-999> Specifies the priority that the dump agents run in. -Xdump:<agent>:range=<ranges> Starts and stops a dump agent on a particular occurrence of a VM. -Xdump:<agent>:request=<requests> Asks the VM to prepare the state before starting the dump agent. You can have multiple -Xdump options on the command line. You can also have multiple dump types triggered by multiple events. For example, the following command turns off the creation of heap dump files, and creates a dump agent that produces a heap dump file and a Java\u2122 dump file when either a vmstart or vmstop event occurs: java -Xdump:heap:none -Xdump:heap+java:events=vmstart+vmstop -mp . -m <class> [args...] Note: Multiple suboptions that follow an Xdump suboption must be split with a comma (,), for example: java -Xdump:java:events=vmstart,file=/STDERR/ -version For more detailed information on the these parameters and suboptions, including examples, see Parameters . Dump agents A dump agent performs diagnostic tasks when triggered. Most dump agents save information on the state of the VM in some form of dump or trace file for later analysis. An exception is the \"tool\" agent, which can be used to trigger external processes when specific events occur. Dump agent Description stack Stack dumps are very basic dumps in which the status and Java stack of the thread is written to stderr. console Console dumps are very basic dumps, in which the status of every Java thread is written to stderr. system System dumps capture the raw process image or address space of an application. tool The tool option allows external processes to be started when an event occurs. java Java dumps are an internally generated and formatted analysis of the VM, giving information that includes the Java threads present, the classes loaded, and heap statistics. heap Heap dumps capture all object instances in the heap, including each object address, type or class name, size, and references to other objects. snap Take a snap of the trace buffers, which contain tracepoint data. ceedump LE CEEDUMP dumps are z/OS\u00ae formatted summary system dumps that show stack traces for each thread that is in the VM process, together with register information and a short dump of storage for each register. jit JIT compiler dumps contain diagnostic data in a binary format. Default dump agents During VM initialization a set of dump agents are added by default. You can override this set of dump agents using -Xdump on the command line. To show the registered dump agents, user the Xdump:what option on the command line. The following sample output shows the default dump agents that are in place on a Linux system: java -Xdump:what Registered dump agents ---------------------- -Xdump:system: events=gpf+abort+traceassert+corruptcache, label=/home/user/core.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.dmp, range=1..0, priority=999, request=serial ---------------------- -Xdump:system: events=systhrow, filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError, label=/home/user/core.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.dmp, range=1..1, priority=999, request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk ---------------------- -Xdump:heap: events=systhrow, filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError, label=/home/user/heapdump.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.phd, range=1..4, priority=500, request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk, opts=PHD ---------------------- -Xdump:java: events=gpf+user+abort+traceassert+corruptcache, label=/home/user/javacore.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.txt, range=1..0, priority=400, request=exclusive+preempt ---------------------- -Xdump:java: events=systhrow, filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError, label=/home/user/javacore.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.txt, range=1..4, priority=400, request=exclusive+preempt ---------------------- -Xdump:snap: events=gpf+abort+traceassert+corruptcache, label=/home/user/Snap.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.trc, range=1..0, priority=300, request=serial ---------------------- -Xdump:snap: events=systhrow, filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError, label=/home/user/Snap.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.trc, range=1..4, priority=300, request=serial ---------------------- -Xdump:jit: events=gpf+abort, label=/home/user/jitdump.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.dmp, range=1..0, priority=200, request=serial ---------------------- Dump agent tokens You can use tokens to add context to dump file names and directories, and to pass command-line arguments to the tool agent. The tokens available are listed in the following table: Token Description %Y Year (4 digits) %y Year (2 digits) %m Month (2 digits) %d Day of the month (2 digits) %H Hour ( 2 digits) %M Minute (2 digits) %S Second (2 digits) %pid Process ID %uid User name %seq Dump counter %tick msec counter %home Java home directory %last Last dump %job Job name (z/OS only) %jobid Job ID (z/OS only) %asid Address space ID (z/OS only) &DS Dump Section. An incrementing sequence number used for splitting TDUMP files to be less than 2 GB in size. (z/OS 64-bit only) Merging -Xdump agents If you configure more than one dump agent, each responds to events according to its configuration. However, the internal structures representing the dump agent configuration might not match the command line, because dump agents are merged for efficiency. Two sets of options can be merged as long as none of the agent settings conflict. This means that the list of installed dump agents and their parameters produced by -Xdump:what might not be grouped in the same way as the original -Xdump options that configured them. For example, you can use the following command to specify that a dump agent creates a Java dump file on class unload: java -Xdump:java:events=unload -Xdump:what This command does not create a new agent, as can be seen in the results from the -Xdump:what option. ... ---------------------- -Xdump:java: events=gpf+user+abort+unload+traceassert+corruptcache, label=/home/user/javacore.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.txt, range=1..0, priority=400, request=exclusive+preempt ---------------------- The configuration is merged with the existing Java dump agent for events gpf , user , abort , traceassert , and corruptcache , because none of the specified options for the new unload agent conflict with those for the existing agent. In the previous example, if one of the parameters for the unload agent is changed so that it conflicts with the existing agent, then it cannot be merged. For example, the following command specifies a different priority, forcing a separate agent to be created: java -Xdump:java:events=unload,priority=100 -Xdump:what The results of the -Xdump:what option in the command are as follows. ... ---------------------- -Xdump:java: events=unload, label=/home/user/javacore.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.txt, range=1..0, priority=100, request=exclusive+preempt ---------------------- -Xdump:java: events=gpf+user+abort+traceassert+corruptcache, label=/home/user/javacore.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.txt, range=1..0, priority=400, request=exclusive+preempt ---------------------- To merge dump agents, the request , filter , opts , label , and range parameters must match exactly. If you specify multiple agents that filter on the same string, but keep all other parameters the same, the agents are merged. For example: java -Xdump:none -Xdump:java:events=uncaught,filter=java/lang/NullPointerException -Xdump:java:events=unload,filter=java/lang/NullPointerException -Xdump:what The results of this command are as follows: Registered dump agents ---------------------- -Xdump:java: events=unload+uncaught, filter=java/lang/NullPointerException, label=/home/user/javacore.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.%seq.txt, range=1..0, priority=400, request=exclusive+preempt ---------------------- Dump events Dump agents are triggered by events occurring during operation of the OpenJ9 VM. Some events can be filtered to improve the relevance of the output. The following table shows the events that are available as dump agent triggers: Event Triggered when.... Filters on .... gpf A General Protection Fault (GPF) occurs. Not applicable user The VM receives the SIGQUIT (Linux, macOS\u00ae, AIX\u00ae, z/OS) or SIGBREAK (Windows\u2122) signal from the operating system. Not applicable abort The VM receives the SIGABRT signal from the operating system. Not applicable vmstart The virtual machine is started. Not applicable vmstop The virtual machine stops. Exit code; for example, filter=#129..#192#-42#255 load A class is loaded. Class name; for example, filter=java/lang/String unload A class us unloaded. Not applicable throw An exception is thrown. Exception class name; for example, filter=java/lang/OutOfMem* catch An exception is caught. Exception class name; for example, filter=*Memory* uncaught A Java exception is not caught by the application. Exception class name; for example, filter=*MemoryError systhrow A Java exception is about to be thrown by the VM. This is different from the 'throw' event because it is only triggered for error conditions detected internally in the VM. Exception class name; for example, filter=java/lang/OutOfMem* . thrstart A new thread is started. Not applicable blocked A thread becomes blocked. Not applicable thrstop A thread stops. Not applicable fullgc A garbage collection cycle is started. Not applicable slow A thread takes longer than 50ms to respond to an internal VM request. Time taken; for example, filter=#300ms will trigger when a thread takes longer than 300ms to respond to an internal VM request. allocation A Java object is allocated with a size matching the given filter specification. Object size; a filter must be supplied. For example, filter=#5m will trigger on objects larger than 5 Mb. Ranges are also supported; for example, filter=#256k..512k will trigger on objects between 256 Kb and 512 Kb in size. traceassert An internal error occurs in the VM. Not applicable corruptcache The VM finds that the shared class cache is corrupt. Not applicable excessivegc An excessive amount of time is being spent in the garbage collector. Not applicable Note: The gpf , traceassert , and abort events cannot trigger a heap dump, prepare the heap (request=prepwalk), or compact the heap (request=compact). Parameters -Xdump:<agent>:<suboptions> descriptions and examples. help To print usage information for a specific dump agent, use -Xdump:<agent>:help none:<options> Use the -Xdump:none option to add and remove dump agents for various VM events, update default dump settings (such as the dump name), and limit the number of dumps that are produced. The option can be used to affect all agents by specifying -Xdump:none:<options> or specific agents by specifying -Xdump:<agent>:none:<suboptions> where <suboptions> is one of the following control types: events=<event> exec=<command> file=<filename> filter=<filter> opts=<options> priority=<0-999> range=<ranges> request=<requests> Explanations for these suboptions are provided elsewhere in this topic. To remove all default dump agents and any preceding dump options, use -Xdump:none . Use this option so that you can subsequently specify a completely new dump configuration. You can also remove dump agents of a particular type. Here are some examples: To turn off all heap dumps (including default agents) but leave Java dumps enabled, use the following option: -Xdump:java+heap:events=vmstop -Xdump:heap:none To turn off all dump agents for corruptcache events: -Xdump:none:events=corruptcache To turn off just system dumps for corruptcache events: -Xdump:system:none:events=corruptcache To turn off all dumps when a java/lang/OutOfMemory error is thrown: -Xdump:none:events=systhrow,filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError To turn off just system dumps when a java/lang/OutOfMemory error is thrown: -Xdump:system:none:events=systhrow,filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError If you remove all dump agents by using -Xdump:none with no further -Xdump options, the VM still provides these basic diagnostic outputs: If a user signal (kill -QUIT) is sent to the VM, a brief listing of the Java threads including their stacks, status, and monitor information is written to stderr. If a crash occurs, information about the location of the crash, VM options, and native and Java stack traces are written to stderr. A system dump file is also written to the user's home directory. Note: Removing dump agents and specifying a new dump configuration can require a long set of command-line options. To reuse command-line options, save the new dump configuration in a file and use the -Xoptionsfile option. For more information, see -Xoptionsfile . defaults Each dump type has default options. To view the default options for a particular dump type, use -Xdump:<agent>:defaults . You can change the default options at run time. For example, you can direct Java dump files into a separate directory for each process, and guarantee unique files by adding a sequence number to the file name using: -Xdump:java:defaults:file=dumps/%pid/javacore-%seq.txt` Or, for example, on z/OS, you can add the jobname to the Java dump file name using: -Xdump:java:defaults:file=javacore.%job.%H%M%S.txt This option does not add a Java dump agent; it updates the default settings for Java dump agents. Further Java dump agents will then create dump files using this specification for filenames, unless overridden. Note: Changing the defaults for a dump type will also affect the default agents for that dump type added by the VM during initialization. For example if you change the default file name for Java dump files, that will change the file name used by the default Java dump agents. However, changing the default range option will not change the range used by the default Java dump agents, because those agents override the range option with specific values. events=<event> To trigger a dump as a result of an event, use the -Xdump:<agent>:events=<event> suboption. For a list of possible events, see Dump events . For example, the following command instructs the VM to create a dump agent at startup that produces a Heap dump whenever the vmstop event happens: -Xdump:heap:events=vmstop exec=<command> The exec suboption is used by the tool dump agent to specify an external application to start. You can set a specific command to run for a particular dump agent with the following command: -Xdump:<agent>:exec=<command> file=<filename> The file suboption specifies where the diagnostics information is written for the specified dump type. The syntax is -Xdump:<agent>:file=<filename> . For example, to create a Heap dump called my.dmp when a vmstop event is received, use: java -Xdump:heap:events=vmstop,file=my.dmp When producing system dump files on z/OS platforms, use the dsn option instead of the file option. For example: java -Xdump:system:events=vmstop,dsn=%uid.MYDUMP Writing to STDOUT / STDERR Add one of the following options to write a Java dump file to STDOUT or STDERR respectively: -Xdump:java:file=/STDOUT/ -Xdump:java:file=/STDERR/ The keywords /STDOUT/ and /STDERR/ are not case sensitive; /stdout/ and /stderr/ are equivalent. By common convention, you can use a dash ( - ) to refer to STDOUT: -Xdump:java:file=- Tokens You can use tokens to add context to dump file names. For a list of tokens, see Dump agent tokens . File location The location for the dump file is selected from the following options, in this order: The location specified by the -Xdump:<agent>:file suboption on the command line (if that location includes a path). This location applies to the specified dump agent type only. The location specified by the -Xdump:directory option on the command line. This location applies to all dump agent types. The location specified by the relevant environment variable: Dump agent type z/OS operating systems Other operating systems Java dumps _CEE_DMPTARG IBM_JAVACOREDIR Heap dumps _CEE_DMPTARG IBM_HEAPDUMPDIR System dumps JAVA_DUMP_TDUMP_PATTERN IBM_COREDIR JIT dumps _CEE_DMPTARG IBM_COREDIR Snap traces _CEE_DMPTARG IBM_COREDIR The current working directory of the OpenJ9 VM process. If the directory does not exist, it is created. If the dump file cannot be written to the selected location, the VM reverts to using the following locations, in this order: On Windows platforms only, the system default location is C:\\WINDOWS . The location specified by the TMPDIR environment variable. The C:\\Temp on Windows operating systems, or the /tmp directory on other operating systems. This VM action does not apply to system dumps on z/OS operating systems that use the dsn option. You can prevent the VM reverting to different dump locations by using the -Xdump:nofailover option. filter=<filter> Some VM events occur thousands of times during the lifetime of an application. Dump agents can use filters and ranges to avoid producing an excessive number of dump files. The following syntax must be used: -Xdump:<agent>:filter=<filter> Wildcards You can use a wildcard in your exception event filter by placing an asterisk only at the beginning or end of the filter. The following command does not work because the second asterisk is not at the end: -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=*InvalidArgumentException#*.myVirtualMethod To fix the problem, change this filter to the following string: -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=*InvalidArgumentException#MyApplication.* Class loading and exception events You can filter class loading ( load ) and exception ( throw , catch , uncaught , systhrow ) events by the name of the class that is being loaded, thrown or caught. For example: -Xdump:java:events=load,filter=java/lang/String -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=java/lang/ArrayStoreException -Xdump:java:events=catch,filter=java/lang/NullPointerException In addition, you can filter throw , uncaught , and systhrow exception events by the name of the method that throws the exception. The name of the parent class must include the full package name, using the forward slash (/) as a separator. Use a dot (.) to separate the method name from the class name. You can use an asterisk (*) as a wildcard character, to include all methods (optional portions are shown in brackets). For example: -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=ExceptionClassName[#com/ibm/ThrowingClassName.throwingMethodName[#stackFrameOffset]] For example, to trigger a Java dump when method MyApplication.myMethod() throws a NullPointerException exception, use the following syntax: -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=java/lang/NullPointerException#com/ibm/MyApplication.myMethod The stack frame offset allows you to filter on the name of a method that calls the throwing method. This option is useful if the exception is being thrown from a general purpose or utility class. For example, to trigger a Java dump when a method called by MyApplication.main() throws a NullPointerException , use the following syntax: -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=java/lang/NullPointerException#com/ibm/MyApplication.main#1 The default value of the stack frame offset is zero. You can filter the catch exception events by Java method name (optional portions are shown in brackets). For example: -Xdump:java:events=catch,filter=ExceptionClassName[#com/ibm/CatchingClassName.catchingMethodName] You can filter throw , uncaught , and systhrowexception events by Java method name (optional portions are shown in brackets): -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=ExceptionClassName[#com/ibm/ThrowingClassName.throwingMethodName[#stackFrameOffset]] You can filter the catch exception events by Java method name (optional portions are shown in brackets): -Xdump:java:events=catch,filter=ExceptionClassName[#com/ibm/CatchingClassName.catchingMethodName] Note: The filters apply to the stacktrace and fire every time the same exception is rethrown, which might result in multiple Java core files. vmstop event You can filter the VM shut down event ( vmstop ) by using one or more exit codes: -Xdump:java:events=vmstop,filter=#129..192#-42#255 slow event You can filter the slow event to change the time threshold from the default of 50 ms: -Xdump:java:events=slow,filter=#300ms allocation event You must filter the allocation event to specify the size of objects that cause a trigger. You can set the filter size from zero up to the maximum value of a 32-bit pointer on 32-bit platforms, or the maximum value of a 64-bit pointer on 64-bit platforms. Setting the lower filter value to zero triggers a dump on all allocations. For example, to trigger dumps on allocations greater than 5 Mb in size, use: -Xdump:stack:events=allocation,filter=#5m To trigger dumps on allocations between 256Kb and 512Kb in size, use: -Xdump:stack:events=allocation,filter=#256k..512k Other events If you apply a filter to an event that does not support filtering, the filter is ignored. msg_filter=<filter> You can use the msg_filter suboption to filter on text strings within an exception message, allowing you to reduce the number of dump files produced. This option is supported only for the following events: throw , catch , systhrow , and uncaught . Use the following syntax to include message filtering in your dump output: -Xdump:<agent>:events=<event>,msg_filter=<filter>` where <filter> is a text string from the exceptions that you want to include in the dump file. This suboption supports asterisks as wild cards. The following example filters java/lang/VerifyError exceptions that contains the text string class format : -Xdump:java:events=throw,filter=java/lang/VerifyError,msg_filter=*class format* opts=<options> The full syntax is -Xdump:<agent>:opts=<options> . The heap dump agent uses this suboption to specify the type of file to produce. On z/OS, the system dump agent uses this suboption to specify the type of dump to produce. Heap dumps You can specify a PHD heap dump file (PHD), a classic text heap dump file (CLASSIC), or both. The default is a PHD file. For example: -Xdump:heap:opts=PHD -Xdump:heap:opts=CLASSIC -Xdump:heap:opts=PHD+CLASSIC z/OS system dumps You can specify a system transaction dump (IEATDUMP), an LE dump (CEEDUMP), or both. The default is an IEADUMP file. For example: -Xdump:system:opts=IEATDUMP -Xdump:system:opts=CEEDUMP -Xdump:system:opts=IEATDUMP+CEEDUMP The ceedump agent is the preferred way to specify LE dumps, for example: -Xdump:ceedump:events=gpf Tool dumps The tool dump agent supports two suboptions that can be specified using the opts subption. You can run the external process asynchronously with opts=ASYNC. You can also specify a delay in milliseconds that produces a pause after starting the command. These two options can be used independently or together. The following examples show different options for starting a new process that runs myProgram : -Xdump:tool:events=vmstop,exec=myProgram Without the opts suboption, the tool dump agent starts the process, and waits for the process to end before continuing. -Xdump:tool:events=vmstop,exec=myProgram,opts=ASYNC When opts=ASYNC is specified, the tool dump agent starts the process, and continues without waiting for the new process to end. -Xdump:tool:events=vmstop,exec=myProgram,opts=WAIT1000 This option starts the process, waits for the process to end, and then waits a further 1 second (1000 milliseconds) before continuing. -Xdump:tool:events=vmstop,exec=myProgram,opts=ASYNC+WAIT10000 Finally the last example starts the process and waits for 10 seconds before continuing, whether the process is still running or not. This last form is useful if you are starting a process that does not end, but requires time to initialize properly. priority=<0-999> One event can generate multiple dump files. The agents that produce each dump file run sequentially and their order is determined by the priority keyword set for each agent. The full syntax for this command is -Xdump:<agent>:priority=<0-999> . Examination of the output from -Xdump:what shows that a gpf event produces a snap trace, a Java dump file, and a system dump file. In this example, the system dump runs first, with priority 999. The snap dump runs second, with priority 500. The Java dump runs last, with priority 10: -Xdump:heap:events=vmstop,priority=123 The maximum value allowed for priority is 999. Higher priority dump agents are started first. If you do not specifically set a priority, default values are taken based on the dump type. The default priority and the other default values for a particular type of dump, can be displayed by using -Xdump:<type>:defaults . For example: java -Xdump:heap:defaults -version Default -Xdump:heap settings: events=gpf+user filter= file=/home/user/heapdump.%Y%m%d.%H%M%S.%pid.phd range=1..0 priority=500 request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk opts=PHD range=<ranges> You can start and stop dump agents on a particular occurrence of a VM event by using the range suboption: -Xdump:<agent>:range=<ranges> For example: -Xdump:java:events=fullgc,range=100..200 Note: range=1..0 against an event means \"on every occurrence\". The VM default dump agents have the range suboption set to 1..0 for all events except systhrow. Most systhrow events with filter=java/lang/OutOfMemoryError have the range suboption set to 1..4, which limits the number of dump files produced on OutOfMemory conditions to a maximum of 4. For more information, see Default dump agents . If you add a new dump agent and do not specify the range, a default of 1..0 is used. request=<requests> Use the request suboption to ask the VM to prepare the state before starting the dump agent: -Xdump:<agent>:request=<requests> The available suboptions are listed in the following table: suboption value Description exclusive Request exclusive access to the VM. compact Run garbage collection. This option removes all unreachable objects from the heap before the dump file is generated. prepwalk Prepare the heap for walking. You must also specify exclusive when you use this option. serial Suspend other dumps until this dump is finished. preempt Applies to the Java dump agent and controls whether native threads in the process are forcibly pre-empted in order to collect stack traces. If this option is not specified, only Java stack traces are collected in the Java dump. You can specify more than one request option by using + . For example: -Xdump:heap:request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk The VM exclusive access mechanism allows a VM thread to halt the activity of other VM threads in a controlled way by using internal VM locks. When the request=exclusive option is specified for a dump agent, the VM thread that is producing the dump waits for threads that are running Java code to halt, and for garbage collection operations to complete, before the dump file is written. This process helps ensure that the dump has consistent data. When the dump is complete, the mechanism allows the other threads to resume. By default, only system dumps for OutOfMemoryError exceptions request exclusive access. Other system dump events typically result from a crash. In these cases, exclusive access is not requested because acquiring locks during a crash can be problematic. If system dumps are requested by using the com.ibm.jvm.Dump.SystemDump() API, the default system dump agent settings are used, and exclusive access is not requested. However, if you intend to use the system dump file for Java heap memory analysis, use the following option to request exclusive access when the dump is taken: -Xdump:system:defaults:request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk These settings avoid capturing a dump file with in-flight data during garbage collection. As an alternative, you can use the com.ibm.jvm.Dump.triggerDump() API and specify request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk on the API call. For more information about the com.ibm.jvm.Dump API , see the API reference information. The default setting of the request suboption for Java dump files is request=exclusive+preempt . To change the settings so that Java dump files are produced without pre-empting threads to collect native stack traces, use the following option: -Xdump:java:request=exclusive In general, the default request options are sufficient. Dump output Dump output is written to different files, depending on the type of dump and the platform. File names include a time stamp.

Note: On z/OS, the system dump file name can be set with the JAVA_DUMP_TDUMP_PATTERN environment variable. The CEEDUMP, which is not produced by default, is stored in the directory specified by _CEE_DMPTARG or the current directory if _CEE_DMPTARG is not specified. System dumps on Linux Linux does not provide an operating system API for generating a system dump from a running process. The VM produces system dumps on Linux by using the fork() API to start an identical process to the parent VM process. The VM then generates a SIGSEGV signal in the child process. The SIGSEGV signal causes Linux to create a system dump for the child process. The parent VM processes and renames the system dump, as required, by the -Xdump options, and might add additional data into the dump file. The system dump file for the child process contains an exact copy of the memory areas used in the parent. The dump viewer can obtain information about the Java threads, classes, and heap from the system dump. However, the dump viewer, and other system dump debuggers show only the single native thread that was running in the child process. You can use the Linux kernel.core_pattern setting to specify the name and path for system dumps. The VM dump agents override the Linux system dump name and path by renaming the dump as specified in the -Xdump options. If the kernel.core_pattern setting specifies a different file system to the -Xdump options, the VM dump agents might be unable to change the file path. In this case the VM renames the dump file, but leaves the file path unchanged. You can find the dump file name and location in the JVMDUMP010I message. Note: If you use the %t specifier in the kernel.core_pattern setting, the VM does not rename the dump. The VM cannot determine the exact time that Linux generated the core file, and therefore cannot be certain which Linux dump file is the correct one to rename.

This option removes all unreachable objects from the heap before the dump file is generated. prepwalk Prepare the heap for walking. You must also specify exclusive when you use this option. serial Suspend other dumps until this dump is finished. preempt Applies to the Java dump agent and controls whether native threads in the process are forcibly pre-empted in order to collect stack traces. If this option is not specified, only Java stack traces are collected in the Java dump. You can specify more than one request option by using + . For example: -Xdump:heap:request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk The VM exclusive access mechanism allows a VM thread to halt the activity of other VM threads in a controlled way by using internal VM locks. When the request=exclusive option is specified for a dump agent, the VM thread that is producing the dump waits for threads that are running Java code to halt, and for garbage collection operations to complete, before the dump file is written. This process helps ensure that the dump has consistent data. When the dump is complete, the mechanism allows the other threads to resume. By default, only system dumps for OutOfMemoryError exceptions request exclusive access. Other system dump events typically result from a crash. In these cases, exclusive access is not requested because acquiring locks during a crash can be problematic. If system dumps are requested by using the com.ibm.jvm.Dump.SystemDump() API, the default system dump agent settings are used, and exclusive access is not requested. However, if you intend to use the system dump file for Java heap memory analysis, use the following option to request exclusive access when the dump is taken: -Xdump:system:defaults:request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk These settings avoid capturing a dump file with in-flight data during garbage collection. As an alternative, you can use the com.ibm.jvm.Dump.triggerDump() API and specify request=exclusive+compact+prepwalk on the API call. For more information about the com.ibm.jvm.Dump API , see the API reference information. The default setting of the request suboption for Java dump files is request=exclusive+preempt .

The concurrent mark phase is disabled; concurrent garbage collection technology is used, but not in the way that concurrent mark is implemented for other policies. The balanced policy uses a region-based layout for the Java\u2122 heap. These regions are individually managed to reduce the maximum pause time on large heaps and increase the efficiency of garbage collection. The policy tries to avoid global collections by matching object allocation and survival rates. If you have problems with application pause times that are caused by global garbage collections, particularly compactions, this policy might improve application performance.

This policy is particularly useful for applications with many short-lived objects, such as transactional applications. Pause times can be significantly shorter than with the optthruput policy, while still producing good throughput. Heap fragmentation is also reduced. metronome (AIX, Linux x86 only) -Xgcpolicy:metronome The metronome policy is an incremental, deterministic garbage collector with short pause times. Applications that are dependent on precise response times can take advantage of this technology by avoiding potentially long delays from garbage collection activity. The metronome policy is supported on specific hardware and operating system configurations. For more information, see Using the Metronome Garbage Collector . Defaults and options -Xgc:synchronousGCOnOOM | -Xgc:nosynchronousGCOnOOM One occasion when garbage collection occurs is when the heap runs out of memory. If there is no more free space in the heap, using -Xgc:synchronousGCOnOOM stops your application while garbage collection removes unused objects. If free space runs out again, consider decreasing the target utilization to allow garbage collection more time to complete. Setting -Xgc:nosynchronousGCOnOOM implies that when heap memory is full your application stops and issues an out-of-memory message. The default is -Xgc:synchronousGCOnOOM . -Xnoclassgc Disables class garbage collection. This option switches off garbage collection of storage associated with Java classes that are no longer being used by the OpenJ9 VM. The default behavior is -Xnoclassgc. -Xgc:targetPauseTime=N Sets the garbage collection pause time, where N is the time in milliseconds. When this option is specified, the GC operates with pauses that do not exceed the value specified. If this option is not specified the default pause time is set to 3 milliseconds. For example, running with -Xgc:targetPauseTime=20 causes the GC to pause for no longer than 20 milliseconds during GC operations. -Xgc:targetUtilization=N Sets the application utilization to N% ; the Garbage Collector attempts to use at most (100-N)% of each time interval. Reasonable values are in the range of 50-80%. Applications with low allocation rates might be able to run at 90%. The default is 70%. This example shows the maximum size of the heap memory is 30 MB. The garbage collector attempts to use 25% of each time interval because the target utilization for the application is 75%. java -Xgcpolicy:metronome -Xmx30m -Xgc:targetUtilization=75 Test -Xgc:threads=N Specifies the number of GC threads to run. The default is the number of processor cores available to the process. The maximum value you can specify is the number of processors available to the operating system. -Xgc:verboseGCCycleTime=N N is the time in milliseconds that the summary information should be dumped. Note: The cycle time does not mean that the summary information is dumped precisely at that time, but when the last garbage collection event that meets this time criterion passes. -Xmx<size> Specifies the Java heap size. Unlike other garbage collection strategies, the real-time Metronome GC does not support heap expansion. There is not an initial or maximum heap size option. You can specify only the maximum heap size. nogc -Xgcpolicy:nogc This policy handles only memory allocation and heap expansion, but doesn't reclaim any memory. If the available Java heap becomes exhausted, an OutOfMemoryError exception is triggered and the VM stops. Because there is no GC pause and most overheads on allocations are eliminated, the impact on runtime performance is minimized. This policy therefore provides benfits for \"garbage-free\" applications. See the following section, \"When to use nogc\", for some possible use cases. You should be especially careful when using any of the following techniques with nogc because memory is never released under this policy: - Finalization - Direct memory access - Weak, soft, and phantom references This policy can also be enabled with the -XX:+UseNoGC option. Further details are available at JEP 318: Epsilon: A No-Op Garbage Collector . When to use nogc For most Java applications, you should not use nogc . However, there are some particular situations where it can be appropriate: Testing during development GC performance. Use nogc as a baseline when testing the performance of other GC policies, including the provision of a low-latency baseline. Application memory. Use nogc to test your settings for allocated memory. If you use -Xmx to set the heap size that should not be exceeded, then your application will crash with a heap dump if it tries to exceed your memory limit. Running applications with minimal or no GC requrements You might use nogc when an application is so short lived that allocated memory is never exhausted and running a full GC cycle is therefore a waste of resources. Similarly, when memory application is well understood or where there is rarely memory to be reclaimed, you might prefer to avoid unnecessary GC cycles and rely on a failover mechanism to occasionally restart the VM as necessary. optavgpause -Xgcpolicy:optavgpause The \"optimize for pause time\" policy uses concurrent mark and concurrent sweep phases. Pause times are shorter than with optthruput , but application throughput is reduced because some garbage collection work is taking place while the application is running. Consider using this policy if you have a large heap size (available on 64-bit platforms), because this policy limits the effect of increasing heap size on the length of the garbage collection pause. However, if your application uses many short-lived objects, the gencon policy might produce better performance. optthruput -Xgcpolicy:optthruput The \"optimize for throughput\" policy disables the concurrent mark phase. The application stops during global garbage collection, so long pauses can occur. This configuration is typically used for large-heap applications when high application throughput, rather than short garbage collection pauses, is the main performance goal. If your application cannot tolerate long garbage collection pauses, consider using another policy, such as gencon .","title":"-Xgcpolicy"},{"location":"xgcpolicy/#-xgcpolicy","text":"Controls the behavior of the garbage collector by specifying different garbage collection policies.","title":"-Xgcpolicy"},{"location":"xgcpolicy/#syntax","text":"-Xgcpolicy:<parameter>","title":"Syntax"},{"location":"xgcpolicy/#parameters","text":"Parameter Default balanced gencon yes metronome (AIX\u00ae, Linux\u00ae x86 only) nogc optavgpause optthruput Specify the garbage collection policy that you want the OpenJ9 VM to use:","title":"Parameters"},{"location":"xgcpolicy/#balanced","text":"-Xgcpolicy:balanced The balanced policy policy uses mark, sweep, compact and generational style garbage collection.

These regions are individually managed to reduce the maximum pause time on large heaps and increase the efficiency of garbage collection.

The VM supports the use of large pages only to back the Java object heap shared memory segments. The VM uses shmget() with the SHM_LGPG and SHM_PIN flags to allocate large pages. The -Xlp option replaces the environment variable IBM_JAVA_LARGE_PAGE_SIZE , which is now ignored if set.

When the soft maximum limit is reached, no more data can be added into the shared cache, unless there is reserved AOT or JIT data space. If such reserved space exists, AOT or JIT data can still be added into the reserved space. The reserved AOT and JIT data spaces are counted as used space within the soft maximum size, so the soft maximum size should not be less than the minimum reserved space for AOT and JIT data if you specify the -Xscminaot or -Xscminjitdata options. You can change the soft maximum size by using the -Xshareclasses:adjustsoftmx=<size> option or the MemoryMXBean.setSharedClassCacheSoftmxBytes() method in the com.ibm.lang.management API. By using this API, Java\u2122 applications can dynamically monitor and adjust the cache soft maximum size as required. This function can be useful in virtualized or cloud environments, for example, where the shared cache size might change dynamically to meet business needs.

Class data sharing is enabled by default for bootstrap classes only (the equivalent of specifying -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly,nonFatal,silent ), unless your application is running in a container. This option can take a number of parameters, some of which are cache utilities. Cache utilities perform the required operation on the specified cache, without starting the VM. You can combine multiple suboptions, which are separated by commas, but the cache utilities are mutually exclusive. When you are running cache utilities, the message Could not create the Java virtual machine is expected. Cache utilities do not create the virtual machine. Some cache utilities can work with caches from previous Java\u2122 versions or caches that are created by virtual machines (VMs) with different bit-widths. These caches are referred to as \"incompatible\" caches. See also the Class data sharing topic, which includes some best practices for using -Xshareclasses . Syntax -Xshareclasses:<parameter> When you specify -Xshareclasses without any parameters and without specifying either the -Xscmx or -XX:SharedCacheHardLimit options, a shared classes cache is created with a default size, as follows: For 64-bit platforms, the default size is 300 MB, with a \"soft\" maximum limit for the initial size of the cache ( -Xscmx ) of 64MB, with the following exceptions: For a persistent cache, if the free disk space is less than 6 GB, the default size is set to 64 MB and an -Xscmx size is not set. For a non-persistent cache on Linux\u00ae or macOS\u00ae systems, the cache size is limited by the maximum amount of memory that can be reserved by a process ( SHMMAX ). If SHMMAX is less than 300MB, the default shared cache size is set to equal SHMMAX . If SHMMAX is greater than 80 MB, -Xscmx is set to 64 MB. If SHMMAX is less than 80MB an -Xscmx size is not set. For other platforms, the default size is 16MB. Parameters adjustmaxaot (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:adjustmaxaot=<size> Adjusts the maximum shared classes cache space that is allowed for AOT data. When you use the -Xshareclasses:verbose option, the VM writes to the console the number of bytes that are not stored due to the current setting of the -Xscmaxaot option. adjustminaot (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:adjustminaot=<size> Adjusts the minimum shared classes cache space that is reserved for AOT data. Use the -Xscminaot option to set the initial minimum size. adjustmaxjitdata (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:adjustmaxjitdata=<size> Adjusts the maximum shared classes cache space that is allowed for JIT data. When you use the -Xshareclasses:verbose option, the VM writes to the console the number of bytes that are not stored due to the current setting of the -Xscmaxjitdata option. adjustminjitdata (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:adjustminjitdata=<size> Adjusts the minimum shared classes cache space that is reserved for JIT data. Use the -Xscminjitdata option to set the initial minimum size. adjustsoftmx (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:adjustsoftmx=<size> Adjusts the soft maximum size of the cache. When you use the -Xshareclasses:verbose option, the VM writes to the console the number of bytes that are not stored due to the current setting of the soft maximum size. For more information about the soft maximum size, see -Xscmx . allowClasspaths -Xshareclasses:allowClasspaths Allows a VM to store classpaths into an existing shared cache that was created by using the restrictClasspaths option. bootClassesOnly -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly Disables caching of classes that are loaded by class loaders other than the bootstrap class loader. If you use this suboption, the nonfatal suboption is also set, so this suboption is the equivalent of specifying -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly,nonfatal . cacheDir -Xshareclasses:cacheDir=<directory> Sets the directory in which cache data is read and written. The following defaults apply: On Windows\u2122 systems, <directory> is the user's C:\\Documents and Settings\\<username>\\Local Settings\\Application Data\\javasharedresources directory. On other operating systems, <directory> is the user's home directory, unless the groupAccess parameter is specified, in which case it is /tmp/javasharedresources , because some members of the group might not have access to the user's home directory. You must have sufficient permissions in <directory> . On AIX\u00ae, Linux, macOS, and Windows systems, the VM writes persistent cache files directly into the directory specified. Persistent cache files can be safely moved and deleted from the file system. For persistent caches, the directory must not be on an NFS mount. Nonpersistent caches are stored in shared memory and have control files that describe the location of the memory. Control files are stored in a javasharedresources subdirectory of the cacheDir specified. Do not move or delete control files in this directory. The listAllCaches utility, the destroyAll utility, and the expire suboption work only in the scope of a given cacheDir . On AIX, Linux, and macOS systems, if you specify the cacheDir=<directory> option, persistent caches are created with the following permissions ( -rw-r--r-- ): User: read/write Group: read (read/write if you also specify -Xshareclasses:groupAccess ) Other: read only Otherwise, persistent caches are created with the same permissions as non-persistent caches. The permissions for non-persistent caches are -rw-r----- , or -rw-rw---- if you also specify -Xshareclasses:groupAccess . Note: It is good practice to set an application-specific cache directory to avoid sharing the default cache directory with the default cache, or other application caches that don't set a cache directory, and means that your application is therefore unaffected by a user running java -Xshareclasses:destroyAll . See Class data sharing: Best practices for using -Xshareclasses . cacheDirPerm (Not Windows) -Xshareclasses:cacheDirPerm=<permission> Sets Unix-style permissions when you are creating a cache directory. <permission> must be an octal number in the ranges 0700 - 0777 or 1700 - 1777. If <permission> is not valid, the VM ends with an appropriate error message. The permissions that are specified by this suboption are used only when you are creating a new cache directory. If the cache directory already exists, this suboption is ignored and the cache directory permissions are not changed. If you set this suboption to 0000, the default directory permissions are used. If you set this suboption to 1000, the machine default directory permissions are used, but the sticky bit is enabled. If the cache directory is the platform default directory, /tmp/javasharedresources , this suboption is ignored and the cache directory permissions are set to 0777. If you do not set this suboption, the default permissions are used according to the following conditions: Condition Permissions The cache directory is /tmp/javasharedresources .

Note: It is good practice to explicitly set permissions for the cache directory when the defaults are not appropriate. See Class data sharing: Best practices for using -Xshareclasses . cacheRetransformed -Xshareclasses:cacheRetransformed Enables caching of classes that are transformed by using the JVMTI RetransformClasses function. For more information, see JVMTI redefinition and retransformation of classes . The option enableBCI is enabled by default. However, if you use the cacheRetransformed option, this option forces cache creation into -Xshareclasses:disableBCI mode. checkURLTimestamps -Xshareclasses:checkURLTimestamps Causes timestamps of jar or zip files to be checked every time a class is loaded. If a timestamp has changed, the class is loaded from the jar or zip file and not from the shared cache. This suboption is not enabled by default and reflects the legacy behavior of the shared classes cache. Note: The timestamp of a bootstrap jar or zip file is checked once when it is used for the first time to load a class. createLayer (Experimental, 64-bit only) -Xshareclasses:createLayer Creates layered caches. This suboption is experimental; do not use it in a production environment. If there are multiple VMs in a race condition while creating a layered cache, more than one new layered cache can be created. To avoid this situation, use the -Xshareclasses:layer=<number> suboption to create a new layered cache with a specific layer number. See layer for more information about layered caches. destroy (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:destroy Destroys a cache that is specified by the name , cacheDir , and nonpersistent suboptions. A cache can be destroyed only if all VMs that are using it have ended and the user has sufficient permissions. destroyAll (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:destroyAll Tries to destroy all the caches that are specified by the cacheDir and nonpersistent suboptions. On Windows and z/OS systems, a cache can be destroyed only if all VMs that are using it have shut down and the user has sufficient permissions. Note: On z/OS, when the destroyAll option is invoked from a 31-bit VM, 64-bit caches are not destroyed. Similarly, when the destroyAll option is invoked from a 64-bit VM, 31-bit caches are not destroyed. The following message is displayed: JVMSHRC735I: Use a nn-bit VM to perform the requested operation on the nn-bit shared cache \"cachename\" as the nn-bit VM cannot verify that the shared memory was created by the VM. On AIX, Linux, and macOS systems: Non-persistent caches can be destroyed only if all VMs that are using it have shut down and the user has sufficient permissions. Persistent caches that are still in use continue to exist even when you use this option, but they are unlinked from the file system so they are not visible to new VM invocations. If you update the VM then restart an application for which a persistent shared cache already exists, the VM unlinks the existing cache and creates a new cache. Because the unlinked caches are not visible to new VMs, you cannot find them by using the -Xshareclasses:listAllCaches option, and you cannot use the -Xshareclasses:printStats option on them. You can therefore have multiple unlinked caches that consume file system space until they are no longer in use. destroyAllLayers (Experimental, 64-bit only) -Xshareclasses:destroyAllLayers Destroys all shared cache layers that are specified by the name suboption. For example, -Xshareclasses:name=Cache1,destroyAllLayers destroys all layers of the cache called Cache1 . If you use the destroy suboption on a layered cache, for example -Xshareclasses:name=Cache1,destroy , only the top layer of the cache is destroyed. For more information about layered caches, see the layer suboption. destroyAllSnapshots (Cache utility) (Not Windows) -Xshareclasses:destroyAllSnapshots Destroys all shared cache snapshots that are available as a result of the specified cacheDir suboption. destroySnapshot (Cache utility) (Not Windows) -Xshareclasses:destroySnapshot Destroys a snapshot that is specified by the name and cacheDir suboptions. disableBCI -Xshareclasses:disableBCI Turns off BCI support. This option can be used to override -XXShareClassesEnableBCI . enableBCI -Xshareclasses:enableBCI This option is enabled by default. Allows a JVMTI ClassFileLoadHook event to be triggered every time, for classes that are loaded from the cache. This mode also prevents caching of classes that are modified by JVMTI agents. For more information about this option, see Using the JVMTI ClassFileLoadHook with cached classes . This option is incompatible with the cacheRetransformed option. Using the two options together causes the VM to end with an error message, unless -Xshareclasses:nonfatal is specified. In this case, the VM continues without using shared classes. A cache that is created without the enableBCI suboption cannot be reused with the enableBCI suboption. Attempting to do so causes the VM to end with an error message, unless -Xshareclasses:nonfatal is specified. In this case, the VM continues without using shared classes. A cache that is created with the enableBCI suboption can be reused without specifying this suboption. In this case, the VM detects that the cache was created with the enableBCI suboption and uses the cache in this mode. expire (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:expire=<time_in_minutes> Destroys all caches that are unused for the time that is specified before loading shared classes. This option is not a utility option because it does not cause the VM to exit. On Windows systems, which have NTFS file systems, the expire option is accurate to the nearest hour. fatal -Xshareclasses:fatal The VM does not start if class data sharing fails, for example because there was an error when accessing the cache directory. An error message is generated. This suboption is specified by default unless you use the bootClassesOnly suboption, which is equivalent to -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly,nonfatal . You can override this behavior by specifying -Xshareclasses:bootClassesOnly,fatal . See also nonfatal . findAotMethods (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:findAotMethods=<method_specification> -Xshareclasses:findAotMethods=help Print the AOT methods in the shared cache that match the method specifications. Methods that are already invalidated are indicated in the output. Use this suboption to check which AOT methods in the shared class cache would be invalidated by using the same method specifications with the invalidateAotMethods suboption. To learn more about the syntax to use for <method_specification> , including how to specify more than one method, see Method specification syntax . groupAccess (Not Windows) -Xshareclasses:groupAccess Sets operating system permissions on a new cache to allow group access to the cache. Group access can be set only when permitted by the operating system umask setting. The default is user access only. On AIX, Linux, and macOS systems, if a user creates a cache by specifying the groupAccess suboption, other users in the same group must also specify this suboption to be granted access to the same cache. In certain situations, warning messages might be generated when the groupAccess suboption is used. This message can occur when persistent caches are used: JVMSHRC756W Failed to set group access permission on the shared cache file as requested by the 'groupAccess' sub-option These messages can occur when non-persistent caches are used: JVMSHRC759W Failed to set group access permission as requested by the 'groupAccess' sub-option on the semaphore control file associated with shared class cache. JVMSHRC760W Failed to set group access permission as requested by the 'groupAccess' sub-option on the shared memory control file associated with shared class cache. This message can occur in combination with the snapshotCache suboption: JVMSHRC761W Failed to set group access permission as requested by the 'groupAccess' sub-option on the shared cache snapshot file. All of these warning messages mean that the user's umask setting does not allow either, or both, of the group read and write permission to be set on the file. The typical umask setting restricts only the write permission. To resolve the warning, either change the umask setting or remove the groupAccess suboption. help -Xshareclasses:help Lists all the command-line options. invalidateAotMethods (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:invalidateAotMethods=<method_specification> -Xshareclasses:invalidateAotMethods=help Modify the existing shared cache to invalidate the AOT methods that match the method specifications. Use this suboption to invalidate AOT methods that cause a failure in the application, without having to destroy the shared cache. Invalidated AOT methods remain in the shared cache, but are then excluded from being loaded. VMs that have not processed the methods, or new VMs that use the cache are not affected by the invalidated methods. The AOT methods are invalidated for the lifetime of the cache, but do not prevent the AOT methods from being compiled again if a new shared cache is created. To prevent AOT method compilation into a new shared cache, use the -Xaot:exclude option. For more information, see -Xaot . To identify AOT problems, see Diagnosing a JIT or AOT problem . To revalidate an AOT method, see the revalidateAotMethods suboption. Use the findAotMethod suboption to determine which AOT methods match the method specifications. To learn more about the syntax to use for <method_specification> , including how to specify more than one method, see Method specification syntax . layer (Experimental, 64-bit only) -Xshareclasses:layer=<number> Creates layered caches. This suboption is experimental; do not use it in production. This suboption has the same effect as the createLayer suboption, but with the added ability to specify the layer number. One scenario where you might want to use a layered cache is if you are building a Docker image. Normally, writing to an existing shared cache in a lower image layer results in Docker duplicating the shared cache to the top layer (following the Docker copy-on-write strategy ). With a layered cache, you can instead write into a new cache in the top layer. The new cache builds on the existing cache, so space is saved in the image. The following example shows a Docker container with four layers: The lowest layer is a Ubuntu Docker image. The next layer is an OpenJ9 Docker image that is built on the Ubuntu image. As part of this image, the -Xshareclasses:name=Cache1 suboption is used to create a cache called Cache1 . The layer number assigned to this cache is 0. The listAllCaches suboption shows the cache and the layer number: java -Xshareclasses:listAllCaches ... Cache name level cache-type feature layer OS shmid OS semid last detach time Compatible shared caches Cache1 Java8 64-bit persistent cr 0 Mon Sep 23 11:41:04 2019 The next Docker layer up is an Open Liberty image that is built on the OpenJ9 image. As part of this image, the -Xshareclasses:name=Cache1,layer=1 suboption is used to create another cache called Cache1. Because the layer=1 suboption is specified, this new cache is a layered cache, which builds on Cache1 in the previous container layer. (Open Liberty starts two VMs, so if you instead use the createLayer suboption here, two layered caches are created, with layer numbers of 1 and 2.) Note that cache layers are different from, and independent of, container layers. In the same way, another Docker layer is added for an Open Liberty Java application, and another layered cache is created to add to Cache1 . The listAllCaches suboption now shows all the caches and their layers: java -Xshareclasses:listAllCaches ... Cache name level cache-type feature layer OS shmid OS semid last detach time Compatible shared caches Cache1 Java8 64-bit persistent cr 0 Mon Sep 23 11:41:04 2019 Cache1 Java8 64-bit persistent cr 1 Mon Sep 23 11:46:25 2019 Cache1 Java8 64-bit persistent cr 2 In use The caches are created in the same directory. When you use the -Xshareclasses:name=Cache1 suboption in future Java commands, all the caches are started. The top-layer cache is started in read/write mode, and lower-layer caches are started in read-only mode. Modifying a lower-layer cache would invalidate all the caches in the layers above. Restriction: The jvmtiSharedCacheInfo.isCorrupt field and the SharedClassCacheInfo.isCacheCorrupt() method cannot detect a corrupted cache that has a layer number other than 0 . However, when a VM starts a layered cache directly, for example when you specify the -Xshareclasses:name=<cache_name> option on the command line, the VM detects any corruption and generates an error message as usual, regardless of the layer number of the cache. listAllCaches (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:listAllCaches Lists all the compatible and incompatible caches, and snapshots that exist in the specified cache directory. If you do not specify cacheDir , the default directory is used. Summary information, such as Java version and current usage, is displayed for each cache. mprotect AIX, z/OS 31-bit: -Xshareclasses:mprotect=[default|all|none] Linux, Windows, macOS: -Xshareclasses:mprotect=[default|all|partialpagesonstartup|onfind|nopartialpages|none] where: default : By default, the memory pages that contain the cache are always protected, unless a specific page is being updated. This protection helps prevent accidental or deliberate corruption to the cache. The cache header is not protected by default because this protection has a performance cost. On Linux, macOS, and Windows systems, after the startup phase, the Java virtual machine (VM) protects partially filled pages whenever new data is added to the shared class cache in the following sequence: The VM changes the memory protection of any partially filled pages to read/write. The VM adds the data to the cache. The VM changes the memory protection of any partially filled pages to read only. all : This value ensures that all the cache pages are protected, including the header. See Note. partialpagesonstartup : This value causes the VM to protect partially filled pages during startup as well as after the startup phase. This value is available only on Linux, macOS, and Windows systems. onfind : When this option is specified, the VM protects partially filled pages when it reads new data in the cache that is added by another VM. This option is available only on Linux, macOS, and Windows systems. nopartialpages : Use this value to turn off the protection of partially filled pages. This value is available only on Linux, macOS, and Windows systems. none : Specifying this value disables the page protection. Note: Specifying all has a negative impact on performance. You should specify all only for problem diagnosis and not for production. Specifying values partialpagesonstartup or onfind can also have a negative impact on performance when the cache is being populated. There is no further impact when the cache is full or no longer being modified. modified -Xshareclasses:modified=<modified_context> Used when a JVMTI agent is installed that might modify bytecode at run time. If you do not specify this suboption and a bytecode modification agent is installed, classes are safely shared with an extra performance cost. The <modified context> is a descriptor that is chosen by the user; for example, myModification1 . This option partitions the cache so that only VMs that are using context myModification1 can share the same classes. So if, for example, you run an application with a modification context and then run it again with a different modification context, all classes are stored twice in the cache. For more information, see Dealing with runtime bytecode modification . If you are migrating from IBM\u00ae SDK, Java Technology Edition, Version 7, or earlier releases, you must set -Xshareclasses:disableBCI when you use this option to retain the same behavior. name -Xshareclasses:name=<name> Connects to a cache of a given name, creating the cache if it does not exist. This option is also used to indicate the cache that is to be modified by cache utilities; for example, destroy . Use the listAllCaches utility to show which named caches are currently available. If you do not specify a name, the default name \"sharedcc_%u\" is used. \"%u\" in the cache name inserts the current user name. On operating systems other than Windows, you can specify \"%g\" in the cache name to insert the current group name. Note: It is good practice to explicitly specify a cache for your application. This avoids the application sharing a cache that is enabled by default or with another application that doesn't set a name, and ensures that the size of your application cache can be set appropriately and that cache space is used exclusively for your application. Note that you cannot change the size of a default cache that already exists by using the -Xscmx option, as that option has no effect on a pre-existing cache. See Class data sharing: Best practices for using -Xshareclasses . noaot -Xshareclasses:noaot Disables caching and loading of AOT code. AOT code already in the shared data cache can be loaded. noBootclasspath -Xshareclasses:noBootclasspath Disables the storage of classes that are loaded by the bootstrap class loader in the shared classes cache. Often used with the SharedClassURLFilter API to control exactly which classes are cached. For more information about shared class filtering, see Using the SharedClassHelper API . nocheckURLTimestamps -Xshareclasses:nocheckURLTimestamps Timestamps of jar or zip files are checked only when they are added to a class loader and used for the first time to look up a class. This is the default behavior, which can improve the performance of class loading from the shared classes cache, especially on Windows systems. To revert to the behavior of the shared classes cache in earlier releases, use the CheckURLTimeStamps suboption. Restriction: When the nocheckURLTimestamps suboption is used (default), if jar or zip files are updated after a class loader starts loading classes from them, an older version of the class might be loaded from the shared classes cache. If this scenario occurs, use the checkURLTimestamps option. nojitdata -Xshareclasses:nojitdata Disables caching of JIT data. JIT data already in the shared data cache can be loaded. none -Xshareclasses:none Added to the end of a command line, disables class data sharing. This suboption overrides class sharing arguments found earlier on the command line. This suboption disables the shared class utility APIs. To disable class data sharing without disabling the utility APIs, use the utilities suboption. For more information about the shared class utility APIs, see Obtaining information about shared caches . nonfatal -Xshareclasses:nonfatal Allows the VM to start even if class data sharing fails. Normal behavior for the VM is to refuse to start if class data sharing fails. If you select nonfatal and the shared classes cache fails to initialize, the VM attempts to connect to the cache in read-only mode. If this attempt fails, the VM starts without class data sharing. See also fatal . Note: Unless it is important that your application runs with class data sharing, it is good practice to set this parameter. See Class data sharing: Best practices for using -Xshareclasses . nonpersistent -Xshareclasses:nonpersistent Uses a nonpersistent cache. The cache is lost when the operating system shuts down. Nonpersistent and persistent caches can have the same name. On Linux, macOS, and Windows systems, you must always use the nonpersistent suboption when you run utilities such as destroy on a nonpersistent cache. z/OS supports only nonpersistent caches. Note: On macOS systems, you must set kern.sysv.shmmax and kern.sysv.shmall when using a nonpersistent cache. noPersistentDiskSpaceCheck -Xshareclasses:noPersistentDiskSpaceCheck Instructs the VM not to check for available storage on the file system before creating a persistent shared classes cache. This option prevents an error on file systems that do not support the checking of free space, where a value of 0 is returned and a shared cache cannot be created. Regardless of whether you choose to set this option, if there isn't enough disk space available when the VM writes to the shared cache memory, a SIGBUS or SIGSEGV signal occurs and the VM ends. If you are using the readonly suboption, the VM does not check the available disk space, so you do not need to set the noPersistentDiskSpaceCheck suboption. persistent -Xshareclasses:persistent Uses a persistent cache. The cache is created on disk, which persists beyond operating system restarts. Nonpersistent and persistent caches can have the same name. On AIX, you must always use the persistent suboption when you run utilities such as destroy on a persistent cache. Note: Persisent caches are not supported on z/OS systems. z/OS supports only nonpersistent caches. printAllStats (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:printAllStats Displays detailed information about the contents of the cache that is specified in the name suboption. If the name is not specified, statistics are displayed about the default cache. For layered caches, information is shown for all layers (to see information for the top layer cache only, use printTopLayerStats=all ). Every class is listed in chronological order with a reference to the location from which it was loaded. For more information, see Diagnostic cache utilities . printStats (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:printStats=<data_type>[+<data_type>] Displays summary information for the cache that is specified by the name , cacheDir , and nonpersistent suboptions. For layered caches, information is shown for all layers (to see information for the top layer cache only, use printTopLayerStats ). The most useful information that is displayed is how full the cache is and how many classes it contains. Stale classes are classes that are updated on the file system and which the cache has therefore marked as \"stale\". Stale classes are not purged from the cache and can be reused. Use the printStats=stale option to list all the stale entries and stale bytes. Specify one or more data types, which are separated by a plus symbol (+), to see more detailed information about the cache content. Data types include AOT data, class paths, and ROMMethods. For more information and for a full list of data types, see Diagnostic cache utilities . printTopLayerStats (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:printTopLayerStats=<data_type>[+<data_type>] Equivalent to printStats but for the top layer cache only. readonly -Xshareclasses:readonly Opens an existing cache with read-only permissions. The Java virtual machine does not create a new cache with this suboption. Opening a cache read-only prevents the VM from making any updates to the cache. If you specify this suboption, the VM can connect to caches that were created by other users or groups without requiring write access. On AIX, Linux, and macOS systems, this access is permitted only if the cache was created by using the -Xshareclasses:cacheDir option to specify a directory with appropriate permissions. If you do not use the -Xshareclasses:cacheDir option, the cache is created with default permissions, which do not permit access by other users or groups. By default, this suboption is not specified. reset -Xshareclasses:reset Causes a cache to be destroyed and then re-created when the VM starts up. This option can be added to the end of a command line as -Xshareclasses:reset . restoreFromSnapshot (Cache utility) (Not Windows) -Xshareclasses:restoreFromSnapshot Restores a new non-persistent shared cache from a snapshot file. The snapshot and shared cache have the same name and location, as specified by the name and cacheDir suboptions. The non-persistent cache cannot already exist when the snapshot is restored. Restoring a snapshot does not remove the snapshot file; it can be restored multiple times. On platforms that support persistent caches, the nonpersistent suboption must be specified in order to restore a snapshot. restrictClasspaths -Xshareclasses:restrictClasspaths Allows only the first VM that is initializing a shared cache to store classpaths in the cache. Subsequent VMs are not allowed to store classpaths in the cache unless the allowClasspaths option is specified. Use the restrictClasspaths option only if the application is designed to create class loaders of type java.net.URLClassloader or its subclass, such that their classpaths are unique to the instance of the application, but the classes that are loaded from these classpaths are the same. In such cases application classpaths that are stored by one VM cannot be used by another VM. For example, consider two VMs, VM1 and VM2, that are using class paths CP1 and CP2 respectively, where: CP1: url1;url2;url3;tempurl1;url4;url5 CP2: url1;url2;url3;tempurl2;url4;url5 These class paths differ only by one entry, which is the tempurl . The url1 , url2 , url3 , url4 , and url5 entries never change from run to run, whereas the tempurl entry is always different. This difference means that a class that is loaded from url4 or url5 , and stored into the shared cache by VM1, cannot be located by VM2. Therefore, an attempt by VM2 to load a class from url4 or url5 would cause it to store its own classpath CP2 into the shared cache, and also add new metadata for classes that are loaded from url4 or url5 . Addition of such unique class paths into the shared cache is not useful. Moreover, the additional metadata might adversely affect the performance of other VMs that connect to the shared cache. Because classes loaded from url4 or url5 are not loaded from the shared cache when the tempurl differs from the original, it is good practice to put the tempurl as the last entry in the class path. In situations such as that described in the example, the restrictClasspaths option can be used to restrict the addition of classpaths by ensuring that the first VM initializes the shared cache, and then prevents the addition of unique classpaths by subsequent VMs that attach to the shared cache. Note that use of the restrictClasspaths option in any other scenario is likely to negatively impact a VM's performance when it is using an existing cache. revalidateAotMethods (Cache utility) -Xshareclasses:revalidateAotMethods=<method_specification> -Xshareclasses:revalidateAotMethods=help Modify the shared cache to revalidate the AOT methods that match the method specifications. Use this suboption to revalidate AOT methods that were invalidated by using the invalidateAotMethods suboption. Revalidated AOT methods are then eligible for loading into a VM, but do not affect VMs where the methods have already been processed. To learn more about the syntax to use for <method_specification> , including how to specify more than one method, see Method specification syntax . silent -Xshareclasses:silent Disables all shared class messages, including error messages. Unrecoverable error messages, which prevent the VM from initializing, are displayed. snapshotCache (Cache utility) (Not Windows) -Xshareclasses:snapshotCache Creates a snapshot file of an existing non-persistent shared cache. The snapshot has the same name and location as the shared cache, as specified by the name and cacheDir suboptions. The shared cache can be in use when the snapshot is taken, but VMs are blocked when they try to write to the shared cache, while the cache data is copied to the file. Typically, after a system is reinitialized, the snapshot file is used to restore the copy of the non-persistent cache into shared memory, via the restoreFromSnapshot suboption. Since this process removes all non-persistent caches from shared memory, restoring the cache from the snapshot file can result in better VM startup performance, because the contents of the shared cache, including classes and AOT code, do not have to be re-created. A snapshot can be created only if the user has sufficient permissions to create the destination snapshot file. If a snapshot of the same name exists already, it is overwritten. On platforms that support persistent caches, the nonpersistent suboption must be specified in order to create a snapshot. For information about removing snapshot files, see the destroySnapshot and destroyAllSnapshots suboptions. utilities -Xshareclasses:utilities Can be added to the end of a command line to disable class data sharing. This suboption overrides class sharing arguments found earlier on the command line. This suboption is like none , but does not disable the shared class utility APIs. For more information about the shared class utility APIs, see Obtaining information about shared caches . verbose -Xshareclasses:verbose Gives detailed output on the cache I/O activity, listing information about classes that are stored and found. Each class loader is given a unique ID (the bootstrap loader is always 0) and the output shows the class loader hierarchy at work, where class loaders ask their parents for a class if they can't find it themselves. It is typical to see many failed requests; this behavior is expected for the class loader hierarchy. The standard option -verbose:class also enables class sharing verbose output if class sharing is enabled. verboseAOT -Xshareclasses:verboseAOT Enables verbose output when compiled AOT code is being found or stored in the cache. AOT code is generated heuristically. You might not see any AOT code that is generated at all for a small application. You can disable AOT caching by using the noaot suboption. See the Messages Guide for a list of the messages produced. verboseHelper -Xshareclasses:verboseHelper Enables verbose output for the Java Helper API. This output shows you how the Helper API is used by your class loader. verboseIO -Xshareclasses:verboseIO Gives detailed output on the cache I/O activity, listing information about classes that are stored and found. Each class loader is given a unique ID (the bootstrap loader is always 0) and the output shows the class loader hierarchy at work, where class loaders must ask their parents for a class before they can load it themselves. It is typical to see many failed requests; this behavior is expected for the class loader hierarchy. Method specification syntax The following examples show how to specify more than one method specification when you are using the findAotMethods , invalidateAotMethods , or revalidateAotMethods suboptions. Each method specification is defined as follows: <packagename>/<classname>[.<methodname>[(<parameters>)]] If you want to include more than one method specification in a single option, separate the specifications with a comma and enclose all the specifications in {braces}. For example: {<packagename/classname>}[.{<methodname>}[({<parameters>})]] You can use an asterisk (*) in most places as a wildcard. You can use an exclamation point (!) before the specification to mean \"everything except this\". Parameters are optional, but if specified, should be enclosed in parentheses and the following native signature formats must be used: B for byte C for char D for double F for float I for int J for long S for short Z for Boolean L<classname>; for objects [ before the signature means array If you want to specify parameters to distinguish between methods, you can use -Xshareclasses:findAotMethods=* (with a wildcard) to list all the parameter variations. Copy the signature for the method that you want from the output. For example, the signature for the parameters (byte[] bytes, int offset, int length, Charset charset) is ([BIILjava/nio/charset/Charset;) Here are some examples: Method signature Matches... * All AOT methods. java/lang/Object All AOT methods in the java.lang.Object class java/util/* All AOT classes and methods in the java.util package java/util/HashMap.putVal All putVal methods in the java.util.HashMap class java/util/HashMap.hash(Ljava/lang/Object;) The private java.util.HashMap.hash(java.lang.Object) method *.equals All equals methods in all classes {java/lang/Object,!java/lang/Object.clone} All methods in java.lang.Object except clone {java/util/*.*(),java/lang/Object.*(*)} All classes or methods with no input parameter in the java.util package, and all methods in java.lang.Object {java/util/*.*(),!java/util/*.*()} Nothing.

One scenario where you might want to use a layered cache is if you are building a Docker image. Normally, writing to an existing shared cache in a lower image layer results in Docker duplicating the shared cache to the top layer (following the Docker copy-on-write strategy ). With a layered cache, you can instead write into a new cache in the top layer. The new cache builds on the existing cache, so space is saved in the image. The following example shows a Docker container with four layers: The lowest layer is a Ubuntu Docker image. The next layer is an OpenJ9 Docker image that is built on the Ubuntu image. As part of this image, the -Xshareclasses:name=Cache1 suboption is used to create a cache called Cache1 . The layer number assigned to this cache is 0.

In such cases application classpaths that are stored by one VM cannot be used by another VM. For example, consider two VMs, VM1 and VM2, that are using class paths CP1 and CP2 respectively, where: CP1: url1;url2;url3;tempurl1;url4;url5 CP2: url1;url2;url3;tempurl2;url4;url5 These class paths differ only by one entry, which is the tempurl . The url1 , url2 , url3 , url4 , and url5 entries never change from run to run, whereas the tempurl entry is always different. This difference means that a class that is loaded from url4 or url5 , and stored into the shared cache by VM1, cannot be located by VM2. Therefore, an attempt by VM2 to load a class from url4 or url5 would cause it to store its own classpath CP2 into the shared cache, and also add new metadata for classes that are loaded from url4 or url5 . Addition of such unique class paths into the shared cache is not useful. Moreover, the additional metadata might adversely affect the performance of other VMs that connect to the shared cache. Because classes loaded from url4 or url5 are not loaded from the shared cache when the tempurl differs from the original, it is good practice to put the tempurl as the last entry in the class path.

Syntax -Xsoftmx<size> Explanation Use the -Xmx option to set a \"hard\" limit for the maximum size of the heap. By default, -Xsoftmx is set to the same value as -Xmx . The value of -Xms must be less than, or equal to, the value of -Xsoftmx . See the introduction to this topic for more information about specifying <size> parameters. You can set this option on the command line, then modify it at run time by using the MemoryMXBean.setMaxHeapSize() method in the com.ibm.lang.management API. By using this API, Java applications can dynamically monitor and adjust the heap size as required. This function can be useful in virtualized or cloud environments, for example, where the available memory might change dynamically to meet business needs. When you use the API, you must specify the value in bytes, such as 2147483648 instead of 2g . For example, you might set the initial heap size to 1 GB and the maximum heap size to 8 GB. You might set a smaller value, such as 2 GB, for -Xsoftmx , to limit the heap size that is used initially: :::java -Xms1g -Xsoftmx2g -Xmx8g You can then use the com.ibm.lang.management API from within a Java application to increase the -Xsoftmx value during run time, as load increases. This change allows the application to use more memory than you specified initially. If you reduce the -Xsoftmx value, the garbage collector attempts to respect the new limit. However, the ability to shrink the heap depends on a number of factors. There is no guarantee that a decrease in the heap size will occur. If or when the heap shrinks to less than the new limit, the heap will not grow beyond that limit. When the heap shrinks, the garbage collector might release memory. The ability of the operating system to reclaim and use this memory varies based on the capabilities of the operating system. Notes: When using -Xgcpolicy:gencon , -Xsoftmx applies only to the non-nursery portion of the heap. In some cases the heap grows to greater than the -Xsoftmx value because the nursery portion grows, making the heap size exceed the limit that is set. See -Xmn for limiting the nursery size. When using -Xgcpolicy:metronome , -Xsoftmx is ignored because the Metronome garbage collector does not support contraction or expansion of the heap. There might be little benefit in reducing the -Xsoftmx value when the Java heap is using large pages. Large pages are pinned in memory and are not reclaimed by the operating system, with the exception of 1M pageable pages on z/OS\u00ae.

Note: These options control which individual tracepoints are activated at run time and the implicit destination of the trace data. All these properties are independent of each other and can be mixed and matched in any way that you choose. For more information, see Tracepoint activation . About trace With the OpenJ9 trace feature, you can trace VM internal operations, Java applications, and Java methods, or any combination of these. VM internal operations The OpenJ9 virtual machine (VM) is extensively instrumented with tracepoints for tracing operations. Interpreting this trace data requires detailed knowledge of the VM, and is intended to diagnose VM problems. No guarantee is given that tracepoints will not vary from release to release and from platform to platform. Applications VM trace contains an application trace facility that allows tracepoints to be placed in Java code, enabling you to combine trace data with the other forms of trace. This capability is supported by the com.ibm.jvm.Trace API. Note that an instrumented Java application runs only on an OpenJ9 VM. For more information, see Application trace . Java methods Use method trace to debug and trace application code and the system classes provided with the VM. You can trace entry to and exit from Java methods run by the VM. You can select method trace by classname, method name, or both. You can also use wildcards to create complex method selections. For more information about command syntax, see methods . Trace can produce large amounts of data in a very short time. Before running trace, think carefully about what information you need in order to solve the problem. Here are some considerations: If you need only the trace information that is produced shortly before the problem occurs, consider wrapping the file by using the output option. In many cases, just use internal trace with an increased buffer size and snap the trace when the problem occurs. If the problem results in a thread stack dump or operating system signal or exception, trace buffers are snapped automatically to a file that is in the current directory. The file is called: Snapnnnn. yyyymmdd.hhmmssth.process.trc . You must also think carefully about which components need to be traced and what level of tracing is required. For example, if you are tracing a suspected shared classes problem, it might be enough to trace all components at level 1, and j9shr at level 9, while maximal can be used to show parameters and other information for the failing component. Tracepoint components and trace levels are described in the following sections: Tracepoint specification and Trace levels . There are two types of tracepoints inside the VM: Regular tracepoints include method tracepoints, application tracepoints, data tracepoints inside the VM and data tracepoints inside class libraries. You can display regular tracepoint data on the screen or save the data to a file. You can also use command line options to trigger specific actions when regular tracepoints fire. Auxiliary tracepoints are a special type of tracepoint that can be fired only when another tracepoint is being processed. For example, the stack frame information produced by the jstacktrace -Xtrace:trigger command. You cannot control where auxiliary tracepoint data is sent and you cannot set triggers on auxiliary tracepoints. Auxiliary tracepoint data is sent to the same destination as the tracepoint that caused them to be generated. Trace data can be written to one of the following locations: Memory buffers that can be dumped or snapped when a problem occurs. Use the -Xtrace:buffers=<size> option to control the size of the buffer allocated to each thread. Buffers allocated to a thread are discarded when that thread terminates. To examine the trace data captured in these memory buffers, you must snap or dump the data, then format the buffers. One or more files that are using buffered I/O. Use the -Xtrace:output option. An external agent in real time, using the -Xtrace:external option. stderr in real time. Any combination of the other items in this list. Default tracing By default, the equivalent of the following trace command line is always available in the VM: -Xtrace:maximal=all{level1},exception=j9mm{gclogger} When startup is complete, the equivalent of the following command line is added to enable level 2 trace points: -Xtrace:maximal=all{level2} Level 2 is used for default tracing that would produce too much data during the startup of the VM. If you set other trace options on the command line, or before the VM finishes startup (through use of JVMTI or the com.ibm.jvm.Trace API), the level 2 trace points are enabled just before your trace options are processed. This behavior ensures that the default level 2 trace points do not override any changes that you specify. The data generated by the tracepoints is continuously captured in wrapping memory buffers for each thread. You can find tracepoint information in the following diagnostics data: System memory dumps, extracted by using jdmpview. Snap traces, generated when the VM encounters a problem or an output file is specified. Using dump agents describes more ways to create a snap trace. For exception trace only, in Javadumps. Default memory management tracing The default trace options are designed to ensure that Javadumps always contain a record of the most recent memory management history, regardless of how much work the VM has performed since the garbage collection cycle was last called. The exception=j9mm{gclogger} clause of the default trace set specifies that a history of garbage collection cycles that have occurred in the VM is continuously recorded. The gclogger group of tracepoints in the j9mm component constitutes a set of tracepoints that record a snapshot of each garbage collection cycle. These tracepoints are recorded in their own separate buffer, called the exception buffer. The effect is that the tracepoints are not overwritten by the higher frequency tracepoints of the VM. The GC History section of the Javadump is based on the information in the exception buffer. If a garbage collection cycle has occurred in a traced VM, the Java dump probably contains a GC History section. Default assertion tracing The VM includes assertions, implemented as special trace points. By default, internal assertions are detected and diagnostics logs are produced to help assess the error. Assertion failures often indicate a serious problem, and the VM usually stops immediately. In these circumstances, raise an issue, including the standard error output and any diagnostic files that are produced. When an assertion trace point is reached, a message like the following output is produced on the standard error stream: 16:43:48.671 0x10a4800 j9vm.209 * ** ASSERTION FAILED ** at jniinv.c:251: ((javaVM == ((void *)0))) This error stream is followed with information about the diagnostic logs produced: JVMDUMP007I JVM Requesting System Dump using 'core.20060426.124348.976.dmp' JVMDUMP010I System Dump written to core.20060426.124348.976.dmp JVMDUMP007I JVM Requesting Snap Dump using 'Snap0001.20060426.124648.976.trc' JVMDUMP010I Snap Dump written to Snap0001.20060426.124648.976.trc Assertions are special trace points. They can be enabled or disabled by using the standard trace command-line options. Assertion failures might occur early during VM startup, before trace is enabled. In this case, the assert message has a different format, and is not prefixed by a timestamp or thread ID. For example: ** ASSERTION FAILED ** j9vmutil.15 at thrinfo.c:371 Assert_VMUtil_true(( publicFlags & 0x200)) Assertion failures that occur early during startup cannot be disabled. These failures do not produce diagnostic dumps, and do not cause the VM to stop. Tracepoint activation The options that control which individual tracepoints are activated at run time and the implicit destination of the trace data are listed under Syntax: Controlling tracepoint activation In some cases, you must use them with other options. For example, if you specify maximal or minimal tracepoints, the trace data is put into memory buffers. If you are going to send the data to a file, you must use an output option to specify the destination file name. With the exception of none , all options require at least one <tracepoint_specification> , which is described in the following section. Multiple statements of each type of trace are allowed and their effect is cumulative. If you want to use multiple trace options of the same name, use a properties file. (See properties .) Tracepoint specification Tracepoints are enabled by specifying component and tracepoint . If no qualifier parameters are entered, all tracepoints are enabled, except for <exception.output> trace, where the default is all {exception}. The <tracepoint_specification> syntax can be further broken down as follows: [!]<component>[{<group>}] or [!]<component>[{<type>}] or [!]<tracepoint_id>[,<tracepoint_id>] Where: The ! symbol is a logical not . That is, the tracepoints that are in a specification starting with ! are turned off. <component> is a Java component. <group> is a tracepoint group, which is a set of tracepoints that are defined within a component. <type> is the tracepoint type: entry , exit , event , exception , and eem . <tracepoint_id> is the tracepoint identifier. The tracepoint identifier constitutes the component name of the tracepoint, followed by its integer number inside that component. For example, j9mm.49 , j9shr.20-29 , j9vm.15 . To understand these numbers, see Determining the tracepoint ID of a tracepoint. Some tracepoints can be both an exit and an exception ; that is, the function ended with an error. If you specify either exit or exception , these tracepoints are included. Lists of Java components and tracepoint groups can be found in the tables that follow. The following table lists the possible Java components ( <component> ). To include all Java components, specify all . Component name Description avl VM AVL tree support io Class library java.io native code j9bcu VM byte code utilities j9bcverify VM byte code verification j9codertvm VM byte code run time j9dmp VM dump j9jcl VM class libraries j9jit VM JIT interface j9jni VM JNI support j9jvmti VM JVMTI support j9mm VM memory management j9prt VM port library j9scar VM class library interface j9shr VM shared classes j9trc VM trace j9util VM utilities j9vm VM general j9vmutil VM utilities j9vrb VM verbose stack walker map VM mapped memory support mt Java methods (see Note ) net Class library TCP/IP networking native code pool VM storage pool support rpc VM RPC support simplepool VM storage pool support sunvmi VM class library interface Note: When specifying the mt component you must also specify the methods option. The following table lists all the tracepoint groups ( <group> ). Each group is associated with one or more Java components: Component name or names Group name Description j9mm gclogger A set of tracepoints that record each garbage collection cycle. Equivalent to -verbose:gc output j9prt nlsmessage A set of tracepoints that record each NLS message that is issued by the VM. j9jcl , j9vm verboseclass A set of tracepoints that record each class as it is loaded. Equivalent to -verbose:class output. j9jni , j9vm checkjni A set of tracepoints that record JNI function checks. Equivalent to -Xcheck:jni output. j9vm checkmemory A set of tracepoints that record memory checks. Equivalent to -Xcheck:memory output. j9vm checkvm A set of tracepoints that record VM checks. Equivalent to -Xcheck:vm output. j9jit verbose A set of tracepoints that record JIT compiler configuration and method compilation. Equivalent to -Xjit:verbose output. mt compiledMethods A set of tracepoints that record compiled Java methods. mt nativeMethods A set of tracepoints that record Java native methods. mt staticMethods A set of tracepoints that record Java static methods. Here are some examples: To trace all tracepoints, specify the following command: -Xtrace:maximal=all To trace all tracepoints except **j9vrb** and **j9trc**, specify the following command: -Xtrace:minimal={all},minimal={!j9vrb,j9trc} To trace all entry and exit tracepoints in j9bcu , specify the following command: -Xtrace:maximal={j9bcu{entry},j9bcu{exit}} To trace all tracepoints in **j9mm** except tracepoints 20-30, specify the following command: -Xtrace:maximal=j9mm,maximal=!j9mm.20-30 To trace tracepoints j9prt.5 through j9prt.15 , specify the following command: -Xtrace:print=j9prt.5-15 To trace all **j9trc** tracepoints, specify the following command: -Xtrace:count=j9trc To trace all entry and exit tracepoints, specify the following command: -Xtrace:external={all{entry},all{exit}} Trace levels Tracepoints have been assigned levels 0 through 9 that are based on the importance of the tracepoint. A level 0 tracepoint is the most important. It is reserved for extraordinary events and errors. A level 9 tracepoint is in-depth component detail. To specify a given level of tracing, the level0 through level9 keywords are used. You can abbreviate these keywords to l0 through l9. For example, if level5 is selected, all tracepoints that have levels 0 through 5 are included. Level specifications do not apply to explicit tracepoint specifications that use the TPNID keyword. The level is provided as a modifier to a component specification, for example: -Xtrace:maximal={all{level5}} or -Xtrace:maximal={j9mm{L2},j9trc,j9bcu{level9},all{level1}} In the first example, tracepoints that have a level of 5 or less are enabled for all components. In the second example, all level 1 tracepoints are enabled. All level 2 tracepoints in j9mm are enabled. All tracepoints up to level 9 are enabled in j9bcu . Note: The level applies only to the current component. If multiple trace selection components are found in a trace properties file, the level is reset to the default for each new component. Level specifications do not apply to explicit tracepoint specifications that use the TPNID keyword. When the not operator is specified, the level is inverted; that is, !j9mm{level5} disables all tracepoints of level 6 or greater for the j9mm component. The following example enables trace for all components at level 9 (the default), but disables level 6 and higher for the locking component, and level 7 and higher for the storage component: -Xtrace:print={all},print={!j9trc{l5},j9mm{l6}} Here are some examples: To count the level zero and level one tracepoints matched, specify the following command: -Xtrace:count=all{L1} To produce maximal trace of all components at level 5 and j9mm at level 9, specify the following command: -Xtrace:maximal={all{level5},j9mm{L9}} To trace all components at level 6, but do not trace j9vrb at all, and do not trace the entry and exit tracepoints in the j9trc component, specify the following command: -Xtrace:minimal={all{l6}},minimal={!j9vrb,j9trc{entry},j9trc{exit}} Parameters Parameters to use with the -Xtrace option: buffers You can modify the size of the buffers to change how much diagnostic output is provided in a snap dump. This buffer is allocated for each thread that makes trace entries. The following table shows how this parameter can be set: Command Effect -Xtrace:buffers=<size> Creates buffers of the specified <size> in k (KB) or m (MB), allocated as needed to match the rate of trace data generation to the output media. -Xtrace:buffers=<size>dynamic Creates buffers of the specified <size> , allocated as needed to match the rate of trace data generation to the output media. -Xtrace:buffers=<size>nodynamic Creates buffers of the specified <size> , with a maximum allocation of two buffers per thread. If external trace is enabled, the number of buffers is doubled; that is, each thread allocates two or more buffers. The same buffer size is used for state and exception tracing, but, in this case, buffers are allocated globally. The default is 8 KB per thread. The dynamic and nodynamic suboptions have meaning only when tracing to an output file. Note: If nodynamic is specified, you might lose trace data if the volume of trace data exceeds the bandwidth of the trace output file. Message UTE115 is issued when the first trace entry is lost, and message UTE018 is issued when the VM ends. Here are some command line examples: To set a buffer size of 2 MB per thread, with dynamic buffering, use: -Xtrace:buffers=2m To limit each thread to 2 trace buffers, each of 128 KB: -Xtrace:buffers={128k,nodynamic} count (tracepoint) -Xtrace:count=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . The count option requests that only a count of the selected tracepoints is kept. When the VM ends, all nonzero totals of tracepoints (sorted by tracepoint id) are written to a file, called utTrcCounters , in the current directory. This information is useful if you want to determine the overhead of particular tracepoints, but do not want to produce a large amount (GB) of trace data. For example, to count the tracepoints that are used in the default trace configuration, use the following command: -Xtrace:count=all{level1},count=j9mm{gclogger} exception (tracepoint) -Xtrace:exception=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . When exception trace is enabled, the trace data is collected in internal buffers that are separate from the normal buffers. These internal buffers can then be written to a snap file or written to the file that is specified in an exception.output option. The exception option allows low-volume tracing in buffers and files that are distinct from the higher-volume information that minimal and maximal tracing have provided. In most cases, this information is exception-type data, but you can use this option to capture any trace data that you want. This form of tracing is channeled through a single set of buffers, as opposed to the buffer-per-thread approach for normal trace. Buffer contention might occur if high volumes of trace data are collected. A difference exists in the <tracepoint_specification> defaults for exception tracing; see Tracepoint specification . Notes: The exception trace buffers are intended for low-volume tracing. By default, the exception trace buffers log garbage collection (GC) event tracepoints, see Default tracing. You can send additional tracepoints to the exception buffers or turn off the GC tracepoints. Changing the exception trace buffers alters the contents of the GC History section in any Javadumps. When exception trace is entered for an active tracepoint, the current thread ID is checked against the previous caller's thread ID. If it is a different thread, or this is the first call to exception trace, a context tracepoint is put into the trace buffer first. This context tracepoint consists only of the current thread ID, which is necessary because of the single set of buffers for exception trace. (The formatter identifies all trace entries as coming from the Exception trace pseudo thread when it formats exception trace files.) exception.output Use exception output to redirect exceptions trace data to a file. -Xtrace:exception.output=<filename>[,<size>] Where: <filename> is a file name, which is created automatically if it does not exist. Otherwise, it is overwritten. To embed specific values in the file name use any of the following variables: %d% (today's date in \" yyyymmdd\" format), %p (process ID number of the process generating the trace), or %t% (time in 24-hour hhmmss format). Optionally, <size> is a value in megabytes (MB), for example, use 4m to specify 4 MB. When full, it wraps nondestructively to the beginning. If you do not limit the file, it grows indefinitely, until limited by disk space. Here are some examples: Exception trace output goes to file /u/traces/exception.trc with no size limit: -Xtrace:exception.output=/u/traces/exception.trc,maximal Exception trace output goes to file except and wraps at 2 MB: -Xtrace:exception.output={except,2m},maximal Exception trace output goes to a file whose filename contains today's date in yyyymmdd format (for example, traceout.20181025.trc ): -Xtrace:exception.output=traceout.%d.trc,maximal Exception trace output goes to a file whose filename contains the number of the process (the PID number) that generated it (for example, tracefrompid2112.trc ): -Xtrace:exception.output=tracefrompid%p.trc,maximal Exception trace output goes to a file whose filename contains the time in hhmmss format (for example, traceout.080312.trc ): -Xtrace:exception.output=traceout.%t.trc,maximal external (tracepoint) -Xtrace:external<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . The external option routes trace data to trace listeners, which are registered by using the JVMTI RegisterTracePointSubscriber() and DeregisterTracePointSubscriber() APIs. help -Xtrace:help Displays general trace help iprint (tracepoint) -Xtrace:iprint=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . The iprint option is the same as the print option, but uses indenting to format the trace. maximal (tracepoint) -Xtrace:maximal=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . When specified, trace data is placed into internal trace buffers that can then be written to a snap file or written to the files that are specified in an output trace option. All associated data is traced. minimal and maximal traces are independent from any types that follow them. For example, if the maximal option is specified, it does not affect a later option such as print . methods Using method trace provides a complete and potentially large diagnosis of code paths inside your application and the system classes. Use wild cards and filtering to control method trace so that you can focus on the sections of code that interest you. To specify one or more method specifications, use the following syntax: -Xtrace:methods=<method_specification>[,<method_specification>] The syntax for <method_specification> can be further broken down to the following suboptions: -Xtrace:methods={[!][*][<package>/]<class>[*],[[*]<method>[*]|[()]]} Where: The delimiter between parts of the package name is a forward slash, \"/\". The ! in the methods parameter is a NOT operator that allows you to tell the VM not to trace the specified method or methods. The parentheses, (), define whether or not to include method parameters in the trace. If a method specification includes any commas, the whole specification must be enclosed in braces, for example: -Xtrace:methods={java/lang/*,java/util/*},print=mt It might be necessary to enclose your command line in quotation marks to prevent the shell intercepting and fragmenting comma-separated command lines, for example: \"-Xtrace:methods={java/lang/*,java/util/*},print=mt\" To output all method trace information to stderr, use either the print or iprint suboptions: -Xtrace:print=mt,methods=*.* -Xtrace:iprint=mt,methods=*.* The iprint suboption prints to stderr with indentation. To output method trace information in binary format, see the output option. Here are some examples: Tracing entry and exit of all methods in a given class: To trace all method entry and exit of the ReaderMain class in the default package and the java.lang.String class, specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods={ReaderMain.*,java/lang/String.*},print=mt Tracing entry, exit and input parameters of all methods in a class: To trace all method entry, exit, and input of the ReaderMain class in the default package, specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods=ReaderMain.*(),print=mt Tracing all methods in a given package: To trace all method entry, exit, and input of all classes in the package com.ibm.socket , specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods=com/ibm/socket/*.*(),print=mt Multiple method trace: To trace all method entry, exit, and input in the Widget class in the default package and all method entry and exit in the common package, specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods={Widget.*(),common/*},print=mt Using the ! operator: To trace all methods in the ArticleUI class in the default package except those beginning with \"get\", specify the following command: -Xtrace:methods={ArticleUI.*,!ArticleUI.get*},print=mt Tracing a specific method in a class: This example traces entry and exit of the substring method of the java.lang.String class . If there is more than one method with the same name, they are all traced. You cannot filter method trace by the signature of the method. -Xtrace:print=mt,methods={java/lang/String.substring} Tracing the constructor of a class: This example traces entry and exit of the constructors of the java.lang.String class. -Xtrace:print=mt,methods={java/lang/String.<init>} Here is some example output: java \"-Xtrace:methods={java/lang*.*},iprint=mt\" HW 10:02:42.281*0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.281 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/String.<clinit>()V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.296 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.verify(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.4 > java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.setInitStatus(Ljava/lang/Class;I) V Compiled static method 10:02:42.328 0x9e900 mt.10 < java/lang/J9VMInternals.initialize(Ljava/lang/Class;) V Compiled static method The output lines comprise of: 0x9e900 , the current execenv (execution environment). Because every VM thread has its own execenv , you can regard execenv as a thread-id . All trace with the same execenv relates to a single thread. The individual tracepoint ID in the mt component that collects and emits the data. The remaining fields show whether a method is being entered (>) or exited (<), followed by details of the method. minimal (tracepoint) -Xtrace:minimal=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . When specified, trace data is placed into internal trace buffers that can then be written to a snap file or written to the files that are specified in an output trace option. Only the time stamp and tracepoint identifier are recorded. When the trace is formatted, missing trace data is replaced with the characters \"???\" in the output file. minimal and maximal traces are independent from any types that follow them. For example, if the minimal option is specified, it does not affect a later option such as print . none (tracepoint) -Xtrace:none[=<tracepoint_specification>] For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . -Xtrace:none prevents the trace engine from loading if it is the only trace option specified. However, if other -Xtrace options are on the command line, it is treated as the equivalent of -Xtrace:none=all and the trace engine still loads. If you specify other tracepoints without specifying -Xtrace:none , the tracepoints are added to the default set. output Sends trace data to a file, optionally of a specific size and number of generations. -Xtrace:output=<filename>[,<size>[,<generations>]]` Where: <filename> is a file name, which is created automatically if it does not exist. Otherwise, it is overwritten. To embed specific values in the file name use any of the following variables: %d% (today's date in \" yyyymmdd\" format), %p% (process ID number of the process generating the trace), or %t% (time in 24-hour hhmmss format). Optionally, <size> is a value in megabytes (MB), for example, use 4m to specify 4 MB. When full, it wraps to the beginning. If you do not limit the file, it grows indefinitely, until limited by disk space. Optionally, <generations> is a value 2 through 36. These values cause up to 36 files to be used sequentially as each file reaches its <size> threshold. When a file needs to be reused, it is overwritten. If <generations> is specified, the filename must contain a # (hash, pound symbol), which will be substituted with its generation identifier, the sequence of which is 0 through 9 followed by A through Z. Note: When tracing to a file, buffers for each thread are written when the buffer is full or when the VM ends. If a thread has been inactive for a period of time before the VM ends, what seems to be 'old' trace data is written to the file. When formatted, it then seems that trace data is missing from the other threads, but this is an unavoidable side-effect of the buffer-per-thread design. This effect becomes especially noticeable when you use the generation facility, and format individual earlier generations. Here are some examples: Trace output goes to file /u/traces/gc.problem with no size limit: -Xtrace:output=/u/traces/gc.problem,maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to file trace , which will wrap at 2 MB: -Xtrace:output={trace,2m},maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to files gc0.trc , gc1.trc , and gc2.trc , each 10 MB in size: -Xtrace:output={gc#.trc,10m,3},maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to a file, where the filename contains today's date in yyyymmdd format (for example, traceout.20181025.trc ): -Xtrace:output=traceout.%d.trc,maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to a file whose name contains the number of the process (the PID number) that generated it (for example, tracefrompid2112.trc ): -Xtrace:output=tracefrompid%p.trc,maximal=j9gc Trace output goes to a file whose name contains the time in hhmmss format (for example, traceout.080312.trc ): -Xtrace:output=traceout.%t.trc,maximal=j9gc print (tracepoint) -Xtrace:print=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . The print option causes the specified tracepoints to be routed to stderr in real time. The VM tracepoints are formatted by using J9TraceFormat.dat . The class library tracepoints are formatted by J9TraceFormat.dat and TraceFormat.dat . properties You can use properties files to control trace. A properties file saves typing and allows you to create a library of files that are tailored to solving problems in a particular area. -Xtrace:properties[=<filename>] If <filename> is not specified, the VM searches for a default name of IBMTRACE.properties in the current directory. All the options that are in the file are processed in the sequence in which they are stored in the file, before the next option that is obtained through the normal mechanism is processed. Therefore, a command-line property always overrides a property that is in the file. Here is an example of a properties file: minimal=all // maximal=j9mm maximal=j9shr buffers=128k,nodynamic output=c:\\traces\\classloader.trc print=tpnid(j9vm.23-25) The following restrictions apply to the file: The file must be a flat ASCII file. Nesting is not supported; that is, the file cannot contain a properties option. You cannot leave properties that have the form <name>=<value> to default if they are specified in the property file; that is, you must specify a value, for example maximal=all . Do not add white space before, after, or within the trace options. If any error is found when the file is accessed, VM initialization fails with an explanatory error message and return code. To use a file trace.props stored in the c:\\trc\\gc directory, specify the following command: -Xtrace:properties=c:\\trc\\gc\\trace.props resume The resume option resumes tracing globally. -Xtrace:resume The suspend and resume options are not recursive. That is, two suspends that are followed by a single resume cause trace to be resumed. resumecount This trace option determines whether tracing is enabled for each thread. -Xtrace:resumecount=<count> If <count> is greater than zero, each thread initially has its tracing disabled and must receive <count> resumethis actions before it starts tracing. This option is used with the trigger option. Note: You cannot use resumecount and suspendcount together because they use the same internal counter. The following example starts with all tracing turned off. Each thread starts tracing when it has had three resumethis actions performed on it: -Xtrace:resumecount=3 sleeptime You can specify how long the sleep lasts when using the sleep trigger action. -Xtrace:sleeptime=nnn|aaams|bbbs Where: nnn sleeps for nnn milliseconds. aaams sleeps for aaa milliseconds. bbbs sleeps for bbb seconds. The default length of time is 30 seconds. If no units are specified, the default time unit is milliseconds. stackdepth Use this option to limit the maximum number of stack frames reported by the jstacktrace trace trigger action. -Xtrace:stackdepth=<n> Where <n> is the maximum number of stack frames reported. suspend -Xtrace:suspend Suspends tracing globally for all threads and all forms of tracing but leaves tracepoints activated. suspendcount This trace option determines whether tracing is enabled for each thread. -Xtrace:suspendcount=<count> If <count> is greater than zero, each thread initially has its tracing enabled and must receive <count> suspendthis actions before it stops tracing. You cannot use resumecount and suspendcount together because they both set the same internal counter. This trace option is for use with the trigger option. The following example starts with tracing turned on. Each thread stops tracing when it has had three suspendthis actions performed on it: -Xtrace:suspendcount=3 trigger The trigger parameter determines when various triggered trace actions occur. Supported actions include turning tracing on and off for all threads, turning tracing on or off for the current thread, or producing various dumps. -Xtrace:trigger=<clause>[,<clause>] This trace option does not control what is traced. It controls only whether the information that has been selected by the other trace options is produced as normal or is blocked. Types Each clause of the trigger parameter can be one of the following types: a method ( -Xtrace:trigger=method{...} ) a tracepoint ID ( -Xtrace:trigger=tpnid{...} ) a group ( -Xtrace:trigger=group{...} ) You can specify multiple clauses of the same type if required, but you do not need to specify all types. method -Xtrace:trigger=method{<methodspec>[,<entryAction>[,<exitAction>[,<delayCount>[,<matchcount>]]]]} On entering a method that matches <methodspec> , the specified <entryAction> is run. On leaving a method that matches <methodspec> , the specified <exitAction> is run. If you specify a <delayCount> , the actions are performed only after a matching <methodspec> has been entered that many times. If you specify a <matchCount> , <entryAction> and <exitAction> are performed at most that many times. <methodspec> is the specification of a Java method, consisting of a class and a method name separated by a dot. For example, specify HelloWorld.main . If the class is in a package, the package name must be included, separated by slashes. For example, specify java/lang/String.getBytes . A wildcard \"*\" can be used at the start or end of the class and method names, or both. For example, you can specify */String.get* . To specify a constructor method, use <init> as the method name. Method signatures cannot be specified, so a method specification applies to all overloaded methods. tracepoint ID -Xtrace:trigger=tpnid{<tpnid>|<tpnidRange>,<action>[,<delayCount>[,<matchcount>]]} On finding the specified active tracepoint ID ( <tpnid> ) or a tracepoint ID) that falls inside the specified <tpnidRange> , the specified action is run . If you specify a <delayCount> , the action is performed only after the VM finds such an active <tpnid> that many times. If you specify a <matchCount> , <action> is performed at most that many times. group -Xtrace:trigger=group{<groupname>,<action>[,<delayCount>[,<matchcount>]]} On finding any active tracepoint that is defined as being in trace group <groupname> , for example Entry or Exit , the specified action is run . If you specify a <delayCount> , the action is performed only after that many active tracepoints from group <groupname> have been found. If you specify a <matchCount> , <action> is performed at most that many times. Actions Wherever an action ( <action> , <entryAction> , or <exitAction> ) must be specified in one of the trigger parameter clauses, you must select from these options: <action> Effect abort Halt the VM. ceedump This action is applicable to z/OS\u00ae only. For more information, see z/OS LE CEEDUMPs. coredump See sysdump . heapdump Produce a Heapdump. See Using Heapdump . javadump Produce a Javadump. See Using Javadump . jstacktrace Examine the Java stack of the current thread and generate auxiliary tracepoints for each stack frame. The auxiliary tracepoints are written to the same destination as the tracepoint or method trace that triggered the action. You can control the number of stack frames examined with the stackdepth=n option. See the stackdepth option. resume Resume all tracing (except for threads that are suspended by the action of the resumecount property and Trace.suspendThis() calls). resumethis Decrement the suspend count for this thread. If the suspend count is zero or less, resume tracing for this thread. sigsev Cause a segmentation violation. (Intended for use in debugging.) sleep Delay the current thread for a length of time controlled by the sleeptime option. The default is 30 seconds. See sleeptime option. snap Snap all active trace buffers to a file in the current working directory. The file name has the format: Snapnnnn.yyyymmdd.hhmmssth.ppppp.trc , where nnnn is the sequence number of the snap file since VM startup, yyyymmdd is the date, hhmmssth is the time, and ppppp is the process ID in decimal with leading zeros removed. suspend Suspend all tracing (except for special trace points). suspendthis Increment the suspend count for this thread. If the suspend-count is greater than zero, prevent all tracing for this thread. sysdump (or coredump ) Produce a system dump. See Dump agents( -Xdump:system ) . Here are some examples of using the trigger option: To produce a Java dump when a method is entered, specify the following command: -Xtrace:trigger=method{java/lang/String.getBytes,javadump} To produce a system dump when a method is entered, specify the following command: -Xtrace:trigger=method{java/lang/String.getBytes,sysdump} To produce a Java dump when a class constructor is called, specify the following command: \"-Xtrace:trigger=method{java/lang/Thread.<init>,javadump}\" Note: This trace option is enclosed in quotation marks to avoid unwanted shell expansion of some of the characters. To produce a Java dump when a class static initializer is called, specify the following command: \"-Xtrace:trigger=method{java/lang/Thread.<clinit>,javadump}\" Note: This trace option is enclosed in quotation marks to avoid unwanted shell expansion of some of the characters. To produce a Java dump when a method is entered 1000 times and 1001 times, specify the following command: -Xtrace:trigger=method{java/lang/String.getBytes,javadump,,1000,2} To start tracing this thread when it enters any method in java/lang/String , and to stop tracing the thread after exiting the method, specify the following command: -Xtrace:resumecount=1 -Xtrace:trigger=method{java/lang/String.*,resumethis,suspendthis} To resume all tracing when any thread enters a method in any class that starts with error , specify the following command: -Xtrace:trigger=method{*.error*,resume} To trace (all threads) while the application is active; that is, not starting or shut down.

VM internal operations The OpenJ9 virtual machine (VM) is extensively instrumented with tracepoints for tracing operations. Interpreting this trace data requires detailed knowledge of the VM, and is intended to diagnose VM problems. No guarantee is given that tracepoints will not vary from release to release and from platform to platform. Applications VM trace contains an application trace facility that allows tracepoints to be placed in Java code, enabling you to combine trace data with the other forms of trace. This capability is supported by the com.ibm.jvm.Trace API. Note that an instrumented Java application runs only on an OpenJ9 VM. For more information, see Application trace . Java methods Use method trace to debug and trace application code and the system classes provided with the VM. You can trace entry to and exit from Java methods run by the VM. You can select method trace by classname, method name, or both. You can also use wildcards to create complex method selections. For more information about command syntax, see methods . Trace can produce large amounts of data in a very short time. Before running trace, think carefully about what information you need in order to solve the problem. Here are some considerations: If you need only the trace information that is produced shortly before the problem occurs, consider wrapping the file by using the output option. In many cases, just use internal trace with an increased buffer size and snap the trace when the problem occurs. If the problem results in a thread stack dump or operating system signal or exception, trace buffers are snapped automatically to a file that is in the current directory. The file is called: Snapnnnn. yyyymmdd.hhmmssth.process.trc . You must also think carefully about which components need to be traced and what level of tracing is required. For example, if you are tracing a suspected shared classes problem, it might be enough to trace all components at level 1, and j9shr at level 9, while maximal can be used to show parameters and other information for the failing component. Tracepoint components and trace levels are described in the following sections: Tracepoint specification and Trace levels . There are two types of tracepoints inside the VM: Regular tracepoints include method tracepoints, application tracepoints, data tracepoints inside the VM and data tracepoints inside class libraries. You can display regular tracepoint data on the screen or save the data to a file. You can also use command line options to trigger specific actions when regular tracepoints fire. Auxiliary tracepoints are a special type of tracepoint that can be fired only when another tracepoint is being processed. For example, the stack frame information produced by the jstacktrace -Xtrace:trigger command. You cannot control where auxiliary tracepoint data is sent and you cannot set triggers on auxiliary tracepoints. Auxiliary tracepoint data is sent to the same destination as the tracepoint that caused them to be generated. Trace data can be written to one of the following locations: Memory buffers that can be dumped or snapped when a problem occurs. Use the -Xtrace:buffers=<size> option to control the size of the buffer allocated to each thread. Buffers allocated to a thread are discarded when that thread terminates. To examine the trace data captured in these memory buffers, you must snap or dump the data, then format the buffers. One or more files that are using buffered I/O. Use the -Xtrace:output option.

If you set other trace options on the command line, or before the VM finishes startup (through use of JVMTI or the com.ibm.jvm.Trace API), the level 2 trace points are enabled just before your trace options are processed. This behavior ensures that the default level 2 trace points do not override any changes that you specify. The data generated by the tracepoints is continuously captured in wrapping memory buffers for each thread. You can find tracepoint information in the following diagnostics data: System memory dumps, extracted by using jdmpview.

Here are some command line examples: To set a buffer size of 2 MB per thread, with dynamic buffering, use: -Xtrace:buffers=2m To limit each thread to 2 trace buffers, each of 128 KB: -Xtrace:buffers={128k,nodynamic}","title":"buffers"},{"location":"xtrace/#count-tracepoint","text":"-Xtrace:count=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . The count option requests that only a count of the selected tracepoints is kept. When the VM ends, all nonzero totals of tracepoints (sorted by tracepoint id) are written to a file, called utTrcCounters , in the current directory. This information is useful if you want to determine the overhead of particular tracepoints, but do not want to produce a large amount (GB) of trace data. For example, to count the tracepoints that are used in the default trace configuration, use the following command: -Xtrace:count=all{level1},count=j9mm{gclogger}","title":"count (tracepoint)"},{"location":"xtrace/#exception-tracepoint","text":"-Xtrace:exception=<tracepoint_specification> For further information about <tracepoint_specification> syntax, see Tracepoint specification . When exception trace is enabled, the trace data is collected in internal buffers that are separate from the normal buffers. These internal buffers can then be written to a snap file or written to the file that is specified in an exception.output option. The exception option allows low-volume tracing in buffers and files that are distinct from the higher-volume information that minimal and maximal tracing have provided. In most cases, this information is exception-type data, but you can use this option to capture any trace data that you want. This form of tracing is channeled through a single set of buffers, as opposed to the buffer-per-thread approach for normal trace. Buffer contention might occur if high volumes of trace data are collected. A difference exists in the <tracepoint_specification> defaults for exception tracing; see Tracepoint specification . Notes: The exception trace buffers are intended for low-volume tracing. By default, the exception trace buffers log garbage collection (GC) event tracepoints, see Default tracing. You can send additional tracepoints to the exception buffers or turn off the GC tracepoints. Changing the exception trace buffers alters the contents of the GC History section in any Javadumps. When exception trace is entered for an active tracepoint, the current thread ID is checked against the previous caller's thread ID. If it is a different thread, or this is the first call to exception trace, a context tracepoint is put into the trace buffer first. This context tracepoint consists only of the current thread ID, which is necessary because of the single set of buffers for exception trace.

If you do not limit the file, it grows indefinitely, until limited by disk space. Optionally, <generations> is a value 2 through 36. These values cause up to 36 files to be used sequentially as each file reaches its <size> threshold. When a file needs to be reused, it is overwritten. If <generations> is specified, the filename must contain a # (hash, pound symbol), which will be substituted with its generation identifier, the sequence of which is 0 through 9 followed by A through Z. Note: When tracing to a file, buffers for each thread are written when the buffer is full or when the VM ends. If a thread has been inactive for a period of time before the VM ends, what seems to be 'old' trace data is written to the file.

This information is stored in different ways, depending on the Java <code>SharedClassHelper</code> API that was used to store the classes. For more information, see <a href="https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSYKE2_8.0.0/com.ibm.java.vm.80.doc/docs/shrc_pd_helper.html">Using the Java Helper API</a>.</dd>

+</dl>
+<h4 id="classpaths-urls-and-tokens"><code>Classpaths</code>, <code>URLs</code>, and <code>Tokens</code></h4>
+<dl>
+<dd>The number of class paths, URLs, and tokens in the cache. Classes stored from a <code>SharedClassURLClasspathHelper</code> are stored with a Classpath. Classes stored using a <code>SharedClassURLHelper</code> are stored with a URL. Classes stored using a <code>SharedClassTokenHelper</code> are stored with a Token. Most class loaders, including the bootstrap and application class loaders, use a <code>SharedClassURLClasspathHelper</code>. The result is that it is most common to see class paths in the cache.</dd>
+<dd>The number of Classpaths, URLs, and Tokens stored is determined by a number of factors. For example, every time an element of a Classpath is updated, such as when a <code>.jar</code> file is rebuilt, a new Classpath is added to the cache. Additionally, if partitions or modification contexts are used, they are associated with the Classpath, URL, or Token. A Classpath, URL, or Token is stored for each unique combination of partition and modification context. For more information, see <a href="https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSYKE2_8.0.0/com.ibm.java.vm.80.doc/docs/shrc_pd_rbm_partitions.html">SharedClassHelper partitions</a> and <a href="https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSYKE2_8.0.0/com.ibm.java.vm.80.doc/docs/shrc_pd_rbm_contexts.html">Modification contexts</a>.</dd>

 <p>OpenSSL is a native open source cryptographic toolkit for Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols, which provides improved cryptographic performance compared to the in-built OpenJDK Java cryptographic implementation. The OpenSSL V1.1.x implementation is enabled by default and  supported for the Digest, CBC, and GCM algorithms. Binaries obtained from AdoptOpenJDK include OpenSSL v1.1.x (see Note). For more information about tuning the OpenSSL implementation, see <a href="../introduction/#cryptographic-operations">Performance tuning</a>.</p>

 <p>In earlier releases, the shared classes cache checks timestamps of <code>jar</code> or <code>zip</code> files every time a class is loaded and reloads a class if the timestamp has changed. This behavior is now changed; timestamps are checked only when <code>zip</code> or <code>jar</code> files are added to class loaders and used for the first time to look for a class, which can improve class-loading performance. If <code>jar</code> or <code>zip</code> files are updated after a class loader starts loading classes from them, an older version of the class might be loaded from the shared classes cache. To revert to the behavior of earlier releases, set the <a href="../xshareclasses/#checkurltimestamps"><code>-Xshareclasses:checkURLTimestamps</code></a> option on the command line when you start your application.</p>

+<p>OpenJ9 release 0.17.0 supports OpenJDK 8, 11, and 13. Binaries are available from the AdoptOpenJDK community at the following links:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><a href="https://adoptopenjdk.net/archive.html?variant=openjdk8&amp;jvmVariant=openj9">OpenJDK version 8</a></li>
+<li><a href="https://adoptopenjdk.net/archive.html?variant=openjdk11&amp;jvmVariant=openj9">OpenJDK version 11</a></li>
+<li><a href="https://adoptopenjdk.net/archive.html?variant=openjdk13&amp;jvmVariant=openj9">OpenJDK version 13</a></li>
+</ul>
+<p><i class="fa fa-pencil-square-o" aria-hidden="true"></i> <strong>Note:</strong> The last release of OpenJDK 8 and 11 from AdoptOpenJDK is Eclipse OpenJ9 0.15.1. To read about other features and changes in the VM since 0.15.1, check the <a href="../version0.16/">Version 0.16.0</a> release notes too.</p>
+<p>To learn more about support for OpenJ9 releases, including OpenJDK levels and platform support, see <a href="../openj9_support/">Supported environments</a>.</p>
+<h3 id="new-shared-classes-cache-suboptions-for-layered-caches">New shared classes cache suboptions for layered caches</h3>
+<p><strong>(Experimental, 64-bit only)</strong></p>
+<p>New suboptions are available for creating layered caches, where a cache builds on another cache with the same name. You can use these suboptions to save space when building a Docker container, for example.</p>
+<p><i class="fa fa-pencil-square-o" aria-hidden="true"></i> <strong>Note:</strong> Because these suboptions are experimental, do not use them in a production environment.</p>
+<p>The new options are:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><a href="../xshareclasses/#createlayer"><code>createLayer</code></a></li>
+<li><a href="../xshareclasses/#layer"><code>layer=&lt;number&gt;</code></a> (see this section for more information about layered caches)</li>
+<li><a href="../xshareclasses/#printtoplayerstats-cache-utility"><code>printTopLayerStats</code></a></li>
+<li><a href="../xshareclasses/#destroyalllayers"><code>destroyAllLayers</code></a></li>
+</ul>
+<h3 id="new-shared-classes-cache-suboption-to-skip-disk-space-check">New shared classes cache suboption to skip disk space check</h3>
+<p>When creating a persistent shared classes cache, the OpenJ9 VM checks that there is sufficient disk space available on the file
+system. For file systems that do not support the checking of free space, you can set the <code>-Xshareclasses:noPersistentDiskSpaceCheck</code> option, which causes the VM to skip the space checking operation. If there isn't enough disk space available when the cache is written, a <strong>SIGBUS</strong> or <strong>SIGSEGV</strong> signal occurs and the VM ends. For more information, see the <a href="../xshareclasses/#nopersistentdiskspacecheck">-Xshareclasses:noPersistentDiskSpaceCheck</a> option.</p>
+<h3 id="option-to-share-unsafe-classes">Option to share 'Unsafe' classes</h3>
+<p>Classes created through <code>Unsafe.defineClass</code> are now stored by default in the shared classes cache. You can use the <code>-XX:-ShareUnsafeClasses</code> option to change the default behavior. For more information, see <a href="../xxshareunsafeclasses/">-XX:[+|-]ShareUnsafeClasses</a>.</p>
+<h3 id="option-to-record-class-relationships-in-the-verifier">Option to record class relationships in the verifier</h3>
+<p>A new command line option <code>-XX:+ClassRelationshipVerifier</code> allows you to record class relationships in the verifier, which avoids unnecessary class loading and reduces VM startup time. This is a new approach to bytecode verification that delays validating the relationships between classes until the classes are required to be loaded for a program's execution thus loading only those classes that are needed. For more information, see <a href="../xxclassrelationshipverifier/">-XX:[+|-]ClassRelationshipVerifier</a>.</p>
+<h3 id="support-for-the-ibm-z15-processor">Support for the IBM z15 processor</h3>
+<p>This release adds JIT compiler support for exploiting z15 instructions.</p>
+<h3 id="digest-algorithm-is-re-enabled">Digest algorithm is re-enabled</h3>
+<p>Issue <a href="https://github.com/eclipse/openj9/issues/5611">#5611</a> is fixed, so support for the Digest algorithm is re-enabled. For more information about this support, see <a href="../introduction/#cryptographic-operations">Cryptographic operations</a>.</p>
+<h3 id="direct-dump-reader-ddr-vm-restriction-removed">Direct Dump Reader (DDR) VM restriction removed</h3>
+<p>Prior to this version, you had to use a 32-bit VM to look at a 32-bit core, and a 64-bit VM to look at a 64-bit core when using DDR. This restriction has now been removed.</p>
+<h3 id="the-format-of-the-hooks-section-of-a-java-dump-has-changed">The format of the HOOKS section of a Java dump has changed</h3>
+<p>The format of the <code>HOOKS</code> section of a Java dump, which shows internal VM event callbacks, has changed:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Recorded times have been changed from milliseconds to microseconds to provide increased precision.</li>
+<li>A new field, <code>3HKTOTALTIME</code>, is included, which gives the total duration of previous events.</li>
+<li>The hook data is now reset after each Java dump.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>For more information and an example of the new format, see <a href="../dump_javadump/#hooks">Java dump: HOOKS</a></p>
+<h3 id="ludcl-caching-disabled-by-default">LUDCL caching disabled by default</h3>
+<p>By caching the Latest User Defined Class Loader (LUDCL), Java applications that use deserialization extensively can see a performance improvement. This
+capability is controlled by the <a href="../dcomibmenableclasscaching/">-Dcom.ibm.enableClassCaching</a> system property and is now disabled by default due to <a href="https://github.com/eclipse/openj9/issues/7332">issue #7332</a>.</p>
+<p><i class="fa fa-pencil-square-o" aria-hidden="true"></i> <strong>Note:</strong> Versions of the documentation before 0.17.0 incorrectly identified this property as disabled by default when it was actually enabled by default in the VM.</p>

+<dd>One scenario where you might want to use a layered cache is if you are building a Docker image. Normally, writing to an existing shared cache in a lower image layer results in Docker duplicating the shared cache to the top layer (following the Docker <a href="https://docs.docker.com/storage/storagedriver/#the-copy-on-write-cow-strategy">copy-on-write strategy</a>). With a layered cache, you can instead write into a new cache in the top layer. The new cache builds on the existing cache, so space is saved in the image.</dd>

+<li>The lowest layer is a Ubuntu Docker image.</li>

As part of this image, the <code>-Xshareclasses:name=Cache1</code> suboption is used to create a cache called <code>Cache1</code>. The layer number assigned to this cache is 0. The <code>listAllCaches</code> suboption shows the cache and the layer number:</p>

+<li>
+<p>The next Docker layer up is an Open Liberty image that is built on the OpenJ9 image. As part of this image, the <code>-Xshareclasses:name=Cache1,layer=1</code> suboption is used to create another cache called Cache1. Because the <code>layer=1</code> suboption is specified, this new cache is a layered cache, which builds on <code>Cache1</code> in the previous container layer. (Open Liberty starts two VMs, so if you instead use the <code>createLayer</code> suboption here, two layered caches are created, with layer numbers of 1 and 2.) Note that cache layers are different from, and independent of, container layers.  </p>

+<p>When enabled, this option delays validating the relationships between classes until the classes are required to be loaded during program execution. In this way, classes that are not required, are never loaded thus reducing VM startup time. </p>
