31 * A {@code MutableCallSite} is a {@link CallSite} whose target variable
32 * behaves like an ordinary field.
33 * An {@code invokedynamic} instruction linked to a {@code MutableCallSite} delegates
34 * all calls to the site's current target.
35 * The {@linkplain CallSite#dynamicInvoker dynamic invoker} of a mutable call site
36 * also delegates each call to the site's current target.
38 * Here is an example of a mutable call site which introduces a
39 * state variable into a method handle chain.
40 * <!-- JavaDocExamplesTest.testMutableCallSite -->
41 * <blockquote><pre>{@code
42 MutableCallSite name = new MutableCallSite(MethodType.methodType(String.class));
43 MethodHandle MH_name = name.dynamicInvoker();
44 MethodType MT_str1 = MethodType.methodType(String.class);
45 MethodHandle MH_upcase = MethodHandles.lookup()
46 .findVirtual(String.class, "toUpperCase", MT_str1);
47 MethodHandle worker1 = MethodHandles.filterReturnValue(MH_name, MH_upcase);
48 name.setTarget(MethodHandles.constant(String.class, "Rocky"));
49 assertEquals("ROCKY", (String) worker1.invokeExact());
50 name.setTarget(MethodHandles.constant(String.class, "Fred"));
51 assertEquals("FRED", (String) worker1.invokeExact());
52 // (mutation can be continued indefinitely)
53 * }</pre></blockquote>
55 * The same call site may be used in several places at once.
56 * <blockquote><pre>{@code
57 MethodType MT_str2 = MethodType.methodType(String.class, String.class);
58 MethodHandle MH_cat = lookup().findVirtual(String.class,
59 "concat", methodType(String.class, String.class));
60 MethodHandle MH_dear = MethodHandles.insertArguments(MH_cat, 1, ", dear?");
61 MethodHandle worker2 = MethodHandles.filterReturnValue(MH_name, MH_dear);
62 assertEquals("Fred, dear?", (String) worker2.invokeExact());
63 name.setTarget(MethodHandles.constant(String.class, "Wilma"));
64 assertEquals("WILMA", (String) worker1.invokeExact());
65 assertEquals("Wilma, dear?", (String) worker2.invokeExact());
66 * }</pre></blockquote>
68 * <em>Non-synchronization of target values:</em>
69 * A write to a mutable call site's target does not force other threads
70 * to become aware of the updated value. Threads which do not perform
71 * suitable synchronization actions relative to the updated call site
72 * may cache the old target value and delay their use of the new target
74 * (This is a normal consequence of the Java Memory Model as applied
77 * The {@link #syncAll syncAll} operation provides a way to force threads
78 * to accept a new target value, even if there is no other synchronization.
80 * For target values which will be frequently updated, consider using
81 * a {@linkplain VolatileCallSite volatile call site} instead.

84 public class MutableCallSite extends CallSite {
86 * Creates a blank call site object with the given method type.
87 * The initial target is set to a method handle of the given type
88 * which will throw an {@link IllegalStateException} if called.
90 * The type of the call site is permanently set to the given type.
92 * Before this {@code CallSite} object is returned from a bootstrap method,
93 * or invoked in some other manner,
94 * it is usually provided with a more useful target method,
95 * via a call to {@link CallSite#setTarget(MethodHandle) setTarget}.

97 * @throws NullPointerException if the proposed type is null

104 * Creates a call site object with an initial target method handle.
105 * The type of the call site is permanently set to the initial target's type.
106 * @param target the method handle that will be the initial target of the call site
107 * @throws NullPointerException if the proposed target is null
109 public MutableCallSite(MethodHandle target) {
114 * Returns the target method of the call site, which behaves
115 * like a normal field of the {@code MutableCallSite}.
117 * The interactions of {@code getTarget} with memory are the same
118 * as of a read from an ordinary variable, such as an array element or a
119 * non-volatile, non-final field.
121 * In particular, the current thread may choose to reuse the result
122 * of a previous read of the target from memory, and may fail to see
123 * a recent update to the target by another thread.
125 * @return the linkage state of this call site, a method handle which can change over time
128 @Override public final MethodHandle getTarget() {
133 * Updates the target method of this call site, as a normal variable.
134 * The type of the new target must agree with the type of the old target.
136 * The interactions with memory are the same
137 * as of a write to an ordinary variable, such as an array element or a
138 * non-volatile, non-final field.
140 * In particular, unrelated threads may fail to see the updated target
141 * until they perform a read from memory.
142 * Stronger guarantees can be created by putting appropriate operations
143 * into the bootstrap method and/or the target methods used
144 * at any given call site.
146 * @param newTarget the new target
147 * @throws NullPointerException if the proposed new target is null
148 * @throws WrongMethodTypeException if the proposed new target
149 * has a method type that differs from the previous target

154 setTargetNormal(newTarget);

162 return makeDynamicInvoker();
166 * Performs a synchronization operation on each call site in the given array,
167 * forcing all other threads to throw away any cached values previously
168 * loaded from the target of any of the call sites.
170 * This operation does not reverse any calls that have already started
171 * on an old target value.
172 * (Java supports {@linkplain java.lang.Object#wait() forward time travel} only.)
174 * The overall effect is to force all future readers of each call site's target
175 * to accept the most recently stored value.
176 * ("Most recently" is reckoned relative to the {@code syncAll} itself.)
177 * Conversely, the {@code syncAll} call may block until all readers have
178 * (somehow) decached all previous versions of each call site's target.
180 * To avoid race conditions, calls to {@code setTarget} and {@code syncAll}
181 * should generally be performed under some sort of mutual exclusion.
182 * Note that reader threads may observe an updated target as early
183 * as the {@code setTarget} call that install the value
184 * (and before the {@code syncAll} that confirms the value).
185 * On the other hand, reader threads may observe previous versions of
186 * the target until the {@code syncAll} call returns
187 * (and after the {@code setTarget} that attempts to convey the updated version).
189 * This operation is likely to be expensive and should be used sparingly.
190 * If possible, it should be buffered for batch processing on sets of call sites.
192 * If {@code sites} contains a null element,
193 * a {@code NullPointerException} will be raised.
194 * In this case, some non-null elements in the array may be
195 * processed before the method returns abnormally.
196 * Which elements these are (if any) is implementation-dependent.
198 * <h1>Java Memory Model details</h1>
199 * In terms of the Java Memory Model, this operation performs a synchronization
200 * action which is comparable in effect to the writing of a volatile variable
201 * by the current thread, and an eventual volatile read by every other thread
202 * that may access one of the affected call sites.
204 * The following effects are apparent, for each individual call site {@code S}:
206 * <li>A new volatile variable {@code V} is created, and written by the current thread.
207 * As defined by the JMM, this write is a global synchronization event.
208 * <li>As is normal with thread-local ordering of write events,
209 * every action already performed by the current thread is
210 * taken to happen before the volatile write to {@code V}.
211 * (In some implementations, this means that the current thread
212 * performs a global release operation.)
213 * <li>Specifically, the write to the current target of {@code S} is
214 * taken to happen before the volatile write to {@code V}.
215 * <li>The volatile write to {@code V} is placed
216 * (in an implementation specific manner)
217 * in the global synchronization order.
218 * <li>Consider an arbitrary thread {@code T} (other than the current thread).
219 * If {@code T} executes a synchronization action {@code A}
220 * after the volatile write to {@code V} (in the global synchronization order),
221 * it is therefore required to see either the current target
222 * of {@code S}, or a later write to that target,
223 * if it executes a read on the target of {@code S}.
224 * (This constraint is called "synchronization-order consistency".)
225 * <li>The JMM specifically allows optimizing compilers to elide
226 * reads or writes of variables that are known to be useless.
227 * Such elided reads and writes have no effect on the happens-before
228 * relation. Regardless of this fact, the volatile {@code V}
229 * will not be elided, even though its written value is
230 * indeterminate and its read value is not used.
232 * Because of the last point, the implementation behaves as if a
233 * volatile read of {@code V} were performed by {@code T}
234 * immediately after its action {@code A}. In the local ordering
235 * of actions in {@code T}, this read happens before any future
236 * read of the target of {@code S}. It is as if the
237 * implementation arbitrarily picked a read of {@code S}'s target
238 * by {@code T}, and forced a read of {@code V} to precede it,
239 * thereby ensuring communication of the new target value.
241 * As long as the constraints of the Java Memory Model are obeyed,
242 * implementations may delay the completion of a {@code syncAll}
243 * operation while other threads ({@code T} above) continue to
244 * use previous values of {@code S}'s target.
245 * However, implementations are (as always) encouraged to avoid
246 * livelock, and to eventually require all threads to take account
247 * of the updated target.
249 * <p style="font-size:smaller;">
250 * <em>Discussion:</em>
251 * For performance reasons, {@code syncAll} is not a virtual method
252 * on a single call site, but rather applies to a set of call sites.
253 * Some implementations may incur a large fixed overhead cost
254 * for processing one or more synchronization operations,
255 * but a small incremental cost for each additional call site.
256 * In any case, this operation is likely to be costly, since
257 * other threads may have to be somehow interrupted
258 * in order to make them notice the updated target value.
259 * However, it may be observed that a single call to synchronize
260 * several sites has the same formal effect as many calls,
261 * each on just one of the sites.
263 * <p style="font-size:smaller;">
264 * <em>Implementation Note:</em>
265 * Simple implementations of {@code MutableCallSite} may use
266 * a volatile variable for the target of a mutable call site.
267 * In such an implementation, the {@code syncAll} method can be a no-op,
268 * and yet it will conform to the JMM behavior documented above.
270 * @param sites an array of call sites to be synchronized
271 * @throws NullPointerException if the {@code sites} array reference is null
272 * or the array contains a null
