<h1 id="heap-dump">Heap dump</h1>
<p>Heap dumps contain a snapshot of all the live objects that are being used by a running Java&trade; application on the Java heap.
You can obtain detailed information for each object instance, such as the address, type, class name, or size, and whether the instance has references to other objects.</p>
<p>There are two formats for heap dumps; the classic format and the Portable Heap Dump (PHD) format, which is the default.
Whilst the classic format is generated in ascii text and can be read, the PHD format is binary and and must be processed
for analysis.</p>
<h2 id="obtaining-dumps">Obtaining dumps</h2>
<p>Heap dumps are generated by default in PHD format when the Java heap runs out of space. If you want to trigger the production of a heap dump in response to other situations, or in classic format, you can use one of the following options:</p>
<ul>
<li>Configure the <strong>heap</strong> dump agent. For more information, see the <a href="../xdump/">-Xdump</a> option.</li>
<li>Use the <code>com.ibm.jvm.Dump</code> API programmatically in your application code. For more information, see the 
<a href="../api-jvm/">JVM diagnostic utilities API documentation</a>. <!-- Link to API --></li>
</ul>
<h2 id="analyzing-dumps">Analyzing dumps</h2>
<p>The best method to analyze a PHD heap dump is to use the <a href="https://www.eclipse.org/mat/">Eclipse Memory Analyzer tool (MAT)</a> or the <a href="https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSYKE2_8.0.0/com.ibm.java.80.doc/diag/tools/tool_memoryanalyzer.html">IBM Memory Analyzer tool</a>. These tools process the dump file and provide a visual representation of the objects in the Java Heap. Both tools require the Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java (DTFJ) plugin. To install the DTFJ plugin in the Eclipse IDE, select the following menu items:</p>
<pre><code>Help &gt; Install New Software &gt; Work with &quot;IBM Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java&quot; &gt; IBM Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools &gt; Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java   
</code></pre>

<p>The following sections contain detailed information about the content of each type of heap dump file.</p>
<h3 id="portable-heap-dump-phd-format">Portable Heap Dump (PHD) format</h3>
<p>A PHD format dump file contains a header section and a body section. The body section can contain information about object, array, or class records.
Primitive numbers are used to describe the file format, as detailed in the following table:</p>
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Primitive number</th>
<th>Length in bytes</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td><code>byte</code></td>
<td>1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>short</code></td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>int</code></td>
<td>4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>long</code></td>
<td>8</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>word</code></td>
<td>4 (32-bit platforms) or 8 (64-bit platforms)</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<h4 id="general-structure">General structure</h4>
<p>The following structure comprises the header section of a PHD file:</p>
<ul>
<li>A UTF string indicating that the file is a <code>portable heap dump</code></li>
<li>An <code>int</code> containing the PHD version number</li>
<li>An <code>int</code> containing flags:<ul>
<li><code>1</code> indicates that the <code>word</code> length is 64-bit.</li>
<li><code>2</code> indicates that all the objects in the dump are hashed. This flag is set for heap dumps that use 16-bit hash codes. OpenJ9 heap dumps use 32-bit hash codes that are created only when used. For example, these hash codes are created when the APIs <code>Object.hashCode()</code> or <code>Object.toString()</code> are called in a Java application. If this flag is not set, the presence of a hash code is indicated by the hash code flag on the individual PHD records.</li>
<li><code>4</code> indicates that the dump is from an OpenJ9 VM.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>A <code>byte</code> containing a tag with a value of <code>1</code> that indicates the start of the header.</li>
<li>A number of optional header records, each preceded by a one-byte header tag. Header record tags have a different range of values from the body, or object record tags. The end of the header is indicated by the end of header tag. The following tags are included:<ul>
<li><code>header tag 1</code> - not used</li>
<li><code>header tag 2</code> - indicates the end of the header</li>
<li><code>header tag 3</code> - not used</li>
<li><code>header tag 4</code> - indicates the VM version (Variable length UTF string)</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>The body of a PHD file is indicated by a <code>byte</code> that contains a tag with a value of 2, after which there are a number of dump records. Dump records are preceded by a 1 byte tag with the following record types:</p>
<ul>
<li>Short object: <code>0x80</code> bit of the tag is set</li>
<li>Medium object: <code>0x40</code> bit of the tag is set (top bit value is 0)</li>
<li>Primitive Array: <code>0x20</code> bit if the tag is set (all other tag values have the top 3 bits with a value of 0)</li>
<li>Long record: tag value is <code>4</code></li>
<li>Class record: tag value is <code>6</code></li>
<li>Long primitive array: tag value is <code>7</code></li>
<li>Object array: tag value is <code>8</code></li>
</ul>
<p>These records are described in more detail in the sections that follow.</p>
<p>The end of the PHD body is indicated by a <code>byte</code> that contains a tag with a value of 3.</p>
<h4 id="object-records">Object records</h4>
<p>Object records can be short, medium, or long, depending on the number of object references in the heap dump.</p>
<p><strong>1. Short object record</strong></p>
<p>The following information is contained within the tag byte:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>The 1 byte tag, which consists of the following bits:</p>

<h3 id="classic-heap-dump-format">Classic Heap Dump format</h3>
<p>Classic heap dumps are produced in ascii text on all platforms except z/OS, which are encoded in EBCDIC. The dump is divided into the following sections:</p>
<h4 id="header-record">Header record</h4>
<p>A single string containing information about the runtime environment, platform, and build levels, similar to the following example:</p>
<pre><code>// Version: JRE 1.8.0 Linux amd64-64 (build 1.8.0_232-b09)
</code></pre>

<h4 id="object-records_1">Object records</h4>
<p>A record of each object instance in the heap with the following format:</p>
<pre><code>&lt;object address, in hexadecimal&gt; [&lt;length in bytes of object instance, in decimal&gt;] OBJ &lt;object type&gt;
&lt;heap reference, in hexadecimal&gt; &lt;heap reference, in hexadecimal&gt; ...
</code></pre>

<p>The following object types (<code>object type</code>) might be shown:</p>
<ul>
<li>class name (including package name)</li>
<li>class array type</li>
<li>primitive array type</li>
</ul>
<p>These types are abbreviated in the record. To determine the type, see the <a href="#java-vm-type-signatures">Java VM Type Signature table</a>.</p>
<p>Any references found are also listed, excluding references to an object's class or NULL references.</p>
<p>The following example shows an object instance (16 bytes in length) of type <code>java/lang/String</code>, with a reference to a char array:</p>
<pre><code>0x00000000E0000AF0 [16] OBJ java/lang/String
    0x00000000E0000B00
</code></pre>

<p>The object instance (length 32 bytes) of type char array, as referenced from the <code>java/lang/String</code>, is shown in the following example:</p>
<pre><code>0x00000000E0000B00 [32] OBJ [C
</code></pre>

<p>The following example shows an object instance (24 bytes in length) of type array of <code>java/lang/String</code>:</p>
<pre><code>0x00000000FFF07498 [24] OBJ [Ljava/lang/String;

<p>A record of each class in the following format:</p>
<pre><code>&lt;class object address, in hexadecimal&gt; [&lt;length in bytes of class object, in decimal&gt;] CLS &lt;class type&gt;
&lt;heap reference, in hexadecimal&gt; &lt;heap reference, in hexadecimal&gt;...
</code></pre>

<p>The following class types (<code>&lt;class type&gt;</code>) might be shown:</p>
<ul>
<li>class name (including package name)</li>
<li>class array type</li>
<li>primitive array types</li>
</ul>
<p>These types are abbreviated in the record. To determine the type, see the <a href="#java-vm-type-signatures">Java VM Type Signature table</a>.</p>
<p>Any references found in the class block are also listed, excluding NULL references.</p>
<p>The following example shows a class object (80 bytes in length) for <code>java/util/Date</code>, with heap references:</p>
<pre><code>0x00000000E00174F0 [80] CLS java/util/Date
    0x00000000FFF1BB60 0x00000000FFF29630
</code></pre>

<h4 id="trailer-record-1">Trailer record 1</h4>
<p>A single record containing record counts, in decimal.</p>
<p>For example:</p>
<pre><code>// Breakdown - Classes: 630, Objects: 3692, ObjectArrays: 576, PrimitiveArrays: 2249
</code></pre>

<h4 id="trailer-record-2">Trailer record 2</h4>
<p>A single record containing totals, in decimal.</p>
<p>For example:</p>
<pre><code>// EOF:  Total 'Objects',Refs(null) : 7147,22040(12379)
</code></pre>

<p>The values in the example reflect the following counts:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>7147</code> total objects</li>
<li><code>22040</code> total references</li>
<li><code>(12379)</code> total NULL references as a proportion of the total references count</li>
</ul>
