Hi,
i got what you are saying, let me ask in a more specific way. if we look
at the rotor code,
inside setCardTable.. the card entry for location is dirtied by
checking only whether ref is ephemeral or not (young or not)
so is my assumption right that the card entry for location will be dirtied
even if location is ephemeral?

for *location=ref
setCardTable.. (location, ref) {
 if ref >= g_ephemeral_low && ref < g_ephemeral_high {
  get gcard of location
  dirty card in card table
 }
}
thanks
archana
