Meant to send this to the list too -- E -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [rvm-research] Regarding the function call mechanism Date: Mon, 25 Mar 2013 12:48:12 -0400 From: Eliot Moss <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] To: Hari Krishnan <[email protected]> Dear Hari -- I am not sure if this answers your question, but, depending on the style of GC algorithm requested, Jikes RVM / MMTk inserts write barriers that note pointer field updates for use by the GC. These are actually specified by MMTk, but inserted by the Jikes RVM compilers on MMTk's behalf.
