• TR JIT design principles• How compilation works• AOT compilation• Wrap-up
Rest of the talk is on Testarossa JIT
17
Be transparent
Users shouldn’t be aware of the JIT(except that the application runs a lot faster!)
JIT design principle #1
18
Let the interpreter handle the hard stuff
Optimize to target the top 75% ish of caseswith a “simple” solution
JIT design principle #2
19
Pay attention to the costs
Overheads can very easily trump benefitsProfile data occupies space
Consider what will happen at scale (10K+ classes)
JIT design principle #3
20
Use the right optimization tool for the job
Prove when you can prove easilyGuard when you can’t prove or can’t prove easily
Speculate appropriately for the bias
JIT design principle #4
21
Compilers can do amazing things
Remember the “unreadable” list of highlight technologies from slide 5! Many items on that list did not exist or had never been done in a
production runtime system before Java
Also keep in mind
22
Compilers are not all powerful
Can’t change algorithmsEngineering constraints can take away a lot of options
Also keep in mind
23
“JIT as optimizer for interpreter”is reasonable starting point
But it’s not how either production Java runtime compiler evolvedIMO interpreter should focus on getting it right without being really slow
JIT compiler should make it fast but stay as simple as possible
Also keep in mind
24
So how does it work?
25
• Methods almost always start out running in interpreter– Interpreter simulates the Java Virtual Machine– Uses a ”program counter” (pc) to point at the current bytecode– Conceptually just a loop loading and simulating bytecode at *pc
do {
switch (*pc) {…
case BCdup :
t=pop();push(t); push(t); pc++; break;
…
}} while (!finishedProgram());
J9 JVM: methods start off interpreted
26
• Remember: the interpreter has to handle all the hard stuff!• It is a switch loop
– But uses computed goto’s– Deal with exceptions– Deal with all the various things that can go wrong– Does some profiling– Counts method invocations to trigger JIT compilations– …
• More info in Dan Heidinga’s talk tomorrow on the J9 interpreterTuesday @ 12:30 in Continental Ballroom 1/2/3
OK, it’s more complicated than that

Per thread buffer: no mutex!

1. Invocation count while interpreted used for initial compilation• When a method’s count reaches zero, trigger method compile
2. Sampling thread• Periodically (10ms or so) ask active threads to sample themselves• If a method catches enough samples over time: trigger method recompile• Samples in interpreted methods dramatically reduce invocation count
How do those JIT threads get work?
35
• “trigger” just means to enqueue a method on compilation queue– Based on current conditions, select an optimization plan– May already be queued, may be queued with different plan
• Testarossa compilations are (mostly) asynchronous– Application thread continues running after enqueing the method
• Testarossa can employ multiple compilation threads– Dynamically resized pool based on compilation load, # cores,
configuration (e.g. how important is memory vs. ramp-up speed?)
Triggering a compilation
36
• Compiler thread dramatically oversimplified algorithm:while (!done) {
method = getNextMethodFromQueue();if (sharedClassesCache->hasAOTCompiledMethod(method))
… = loadAotCompiledMethod(method);else
… = compile(method); // may store AOT code to cachecommitCompiledMethod( … );
}
• You have questions, I know…
What does a compilation thread do?

Convert the method’s bytecodes to Testarossa’s Intermediate Language (IL)
Have slides but not enough time LCome talk to me if you’re interested!
First step: IL Generation
40
• IL generator focuses on correctness
• Strive to avoid complexity for performance– *striving* not always successful
• Rely on the optimizer to make it fast
Second Step: Make the IL Better
41
• About 70 basic optimizations
• Three high level categories:1. Traditional compiler optimizations requiring little adaptation for Java
e.g. reaching definitions, block ordering, expression simplification, …2. Traditional compiler optimizations with Java adaptation
e.g. inlining, partial redundancy elimination, loop versioning, auto parallelization (SIMD, GPU), …
3. Optimizations developed for Javae.g. escape analysis, monitor coarsening, async check insertion, …
Testarossa Optimizations
42
• Strategy is just a sequence of individual optimizations– Contain groups which can be repeated or looped– Opts can be conditional on earlier opts finding/creating opportunities
• 6 strategies with increasing compilation cost & expected payback1. NoOpt not used by default2. Cold initial compile during startup3. Warm initial compile after startup or upgrade4. Hot methods consuming > ~1% of CPU5. Very Hot with Profiling collect profile before a scorching compile6. Scorching methods consuming > ~12.5% of CPU
Optimization Strategies
43
• Testarossa has 4 main code generators:– X86 (32- and 64-bit)– POWER (32- and 64-bit, BE and LE)– Z (IBM mainframe) (31-bit and 64-bit)– ARM 32-bit
• Responsible for converting Testarossa IL into native instructions– Generate fast instruction sequences for current processor– Efficient assignment of registers– Layout of native stack frame– Other very detailed things based on intricate workings of processors
Third step: code generation
44
Such a simple idea:
Store JIT compiled code then“Just” load into another JVM
AOT compilation for Java
45
Compiled code is for method, and
Methods come from classes…
But it’s not so simple
46
But what is a ”class”?
C
B
A I1
I3
I2 A implements I1, I2 { … }
B extends A { … }
C extends B implements I3 { … }
47
Inside a JVM
C
B
A I1
I3
I2 Compiler and applications work on objects of resolved classes
e.g. C objects:embed a Bwhich embeds an A
And C implements I3 and I1, I2
class A
class B
class C
48
Outside a JVM: sea of class files
C extends a class called “B” and implements an
interface called “I3”
B extends a class called “A”
A implements interfaces called “I1” and “I2”
I1
I3
I2
src/directory1/A.classI1.classI2.class
src/directory2/A.classI1.classI2.class
src/directory3/B.classC.class
src/directory4/C.classI3.class
49
• Class files can change• Classpath can change• Class files can be added or removed
”Class” identity a very complicated notion
50
• Class files can change• Classpath can change• Class files can be added or removed• Class loader object used to load the class can change
– Ever heard of an application class loader object outside of a JVM?– Class loader objects (like other objects) don’t exist outside the JVM– Serialization doesn’t help: what to deserialize to replace what object?
• Two class loaders can even load the exact same class files to create two unique classes in a single JVM
• All perfectly valid scenarios under the JVM specification
And it even gets worse (!)
51
Seems grim, what can we do?
52
• We did it this way for a long time (embedded space and for WebSphere Real Time)– AOT code stored alongside binary loadable version of class files called JXEs (kind of like a jar file)
• Class references aren’t the only problem though– Compiled code also directly references addresses in the JVM– e.g. Pointers to constant pools, pointers to ”ROM” parts of classes (see Dan Heidinga’s talk!)– e.g. Pointers to helper functions in JIT runtime
• Code generator also builds relocation records alongside the code– e.g. at code offset 0x208 is the address of the compiled method’s class’s constant pool– e.g. at code offset 0x4C3 is the 4 byte relative address of JIT helper jitNewObject()
• At class load time, process relocations to bind code into current JVM process
First cut: treat everything as unresolved
53
• Our shared classes cache (SCC) debuted in Java 5.0– Shared memory region mapped into every JVM process– Accelerates start-up by speeding up class loading– By itself, accelerated app server start-up by 20-30%
• Also created an opportunity to use AOT code “dynamically”– SCC handles part of problem: “is this the same class I had before”– So: AOT compile in first JVM run, store into SCC, load in other JVMs
• For Java 6, we revamped our AOT compilation story– Made some improvements in code quality– Provide another roughly 20% start-up improvement
Next goal: use AOT to accelerate startup

How did we make AOT betterwith the shared class cache?
59
• Start-up scenario: usually running the same code over and over– Anything you learn in first run *probably* applies in second run too
• Some optimizations are clearly ok for AOT:– e.g. Block ordering uses block frequencies to rearrange code nicely– Different profile in second run? Ok, it runs a bit more slowly– But usually, the profile is incredibly similar
• Can also rely on some tricks:– Any information local to this method or this class (fields, methods)– Shared cache gave us a way to identify and check other methods
Dynamic AOT to accelerate start-up
60
• Some direct calls can just be inlined– Direct call to, say, this class’s constructor
• Inline more direct calls using virtual guard infrastructure– AOT compile optimistically generates guard as a NOP– AOT load evaluates the guard at AOT load time (via relocation record)– Turn NOP into a jump to an unresolved call if relocation record fails
• Shared classes cache helps to inline virtual calls from “this”– Can reason about the vtable of the class of the compiled method
Inlining for AOT methods
61
Using the vtable for virtual “this” calls
Class C J9Method ROMMethod
B.foo()
class B { public void foo() {…} } class C extends B { void bar() { this.foo(); } }
Resolved “B.foo()” Foo() from
B.class
Resolved C vtable
JVM Process 1
62
No SCC: are B.foo and B’.foo same? No idea!
Class C J9Method ROMMethod
B.foo()
Resolved “B.foo()” Foo() from
B.class
Resolved C vtable
JVM Process 1
Class C’ J9Method ROMMethod
B’.foo()
Resolved “B’.foo()”
Foo() from B’.class
Resolved C’ vtable
JVM Process 2
class B { public void foo() {…} } class C extends B { void bar() { this.foo(); } }
63
SCC : B.foo, B’.foo same? Can answer!
Class C J9Method ROMMethod
B.foo()
Resolved “B.foo()” Foo() from
B.class

JVM Process 1
JVM Process 2

class B { public void foo() {…} } class C extends B { void bar() { this.foo(); } }
64
• ROMMethod includes the bytecodes– If class’s vtable has a J9Method with the right ROMMethod, then the
right bytecodes will be inlined– Still need to be careful about other code aspects e.g. field offsets– But you know you got the same method implementation
• Just like the JIT:– Need to check to make sure there isn’t another possible target– Need to register runtime assumptions against future class loads
• Still wrap the inlined code in a guard resolved at AOT load time– If not the right or only target: back off to a virtual invocation
Only needs to be same “enough”
65
• Profile guard: C.method profiled as most common targetif (o.clazz == <common receiver class C address>)
{ /* inlined C.method() */ }
elseo.method();
• C needs to be a resolved class• Typically used for interface invokes
– Not as straight-forward as vtable
But we needed something stronger
66
• List of super classes and implemented interfaces for a class– Every one must have a ROMClass in the shared cache– AOT compiles record “validation relocation” for every referenced
resolved class (offset of a class chain in the SCC)– AOT loads walk class chains in parallel with resolved classes in
current JVM– Anything not right: bail and requeue method as JIT compile
• Still one challenge though:– How to look up the resolved class pointer for “some class” ?– Need a class loader to do that!
We implemented “class chains”
67
How can you finda class loader object in this JVM
that corresponds tothe “same” class loader object from another JVM?

Exercise for the audience
69
• Modularity work in JDK9 opening up interesting opportunities• Possibility to AOT compile entire modules• Sounds awesome but not a straight-forward win:
– Typically don’t know much about execution profile at load time– AOT code is generally much larger than bytecodes (10X footprint)– Generality/flexibility of JDK libraries could hurt us if not careful
• Locales, etc. not used in all runs but maybe in some run• Some interesting new possible optimization opportunities
– But remember the JIT design principles!
Where do we go with AOT?
70
• IBM Runtimes are going open source– 800KLOC already contributed to Eclipse OMR project for all runtimes– Working on the remainder in and around Java 9 development– You’re welcome to join us at Eclipse OMR and, later, Open J9 !– Any feedback welcome!
• Testarossa is a high performance, modular compiler technology– 500KLOC now open sourced at Eclipse OMR– Provides steady and significant performance uplift (through effort!)– Around 70 optimizations with code generators for 4 hardware platforms– Deep dove into Testarossa’s AOT compilation technology
