Java: hashtable synchronization for PowerPC


This patch effects the Java front end, libjava, and boehm-gc. It enables 
hashtable locks on PowerPC, and cleans up libjava's synchronization 
primitives into sysdeps header files rather than making natObject.cc too 
huge. Maybe eventually we can share these between boehm-gc and libjava 
and anything else that needs them.

This results in a moderate slowdown of synchronization performance on my 
tests, but also improves gctest performance significantly, and reduces 
memory usage, so hopefully the overall effect will be a net win (also 
the hash sync code has a lot of assertions which are not yet disabled, 
so it should speed up some more when I fix that).

Using SLOW_PTHREAD_SELF is definatly a win for PowerPC as the 
pthread_self implementation in glibc uses the very slow default/fallback 
code. This has to traverse a thread chain in order to determine thread 
ID, so I imagine that the gap will increase further with a large number 
of threads.

I added an "isync" instruction as a read barrier for _Jv_ThreadSelf. 
Although the programming environments manual makes no mention of isync 
being required to enforce ordering of data reads on multiprocessors, the 
compare and swap implementation in glibc uses it, and I came across this 
message which argues that it is necccessary:

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2001-05/msg00029.html

The "isync" does slow down the hash lookup substantially on my powerbook 
(mpc7410), but it is still a lot faster than using PPC pthread_self.

Look ok?

regards

Bryce.

	* decl.c (java_init_decl_processing): Make sure class_type_node
	alignment is not less than 8 byte if hash synchronization is enabled.

boehm-gc:

2002-03-03  Bryce McKinlay  <bryce@waitaki.otago.ac.nz>

	* include/private/gc_priv.h: Set DOUBLE_ALIGNMENT if target alignment
	is < 8 bytes and GCJ support is enabled.

libjava:

2002-03-03  Bryce McKinlay  <bryce@waitaki.otago.ac.nz>

	* configure.in: Define SLOW_PTHREAD_SELF if configure.host set
	slow_pthread_self. Set up symlink for sysdeps directory.
	* configure.host: Document more shell variables. Set sysdeps_dir
	for most platforms. Set slow_pthread_self for i686. Set 
	enable_hash_synchronization_default and slow_pthread_self for PowerPC. 
	* posix-threads.cc (_Jv_ThreadSelf_out_of_line): Use release_set so
	that memory barrier is emitted where required.
	* include/posix-threads.h (_Jv_ThreadSelf for SLOW_PTHREAD_SELF): Add
	read_barrier() to enforce ordering of reads.
	* sysdep/powerpc/locks.h: New file. Implementation of synchronization
	primitives for PowerPC.
	* sysdep/i386/locks.h: New file. Synchronization primitives for i386 
	moved from natObject.cc.
	* sysdep/alpha/locks.h: Likewise.
	* sysdep/ia64/locks.h: Likewise.
	* sysdep/generic/locks.h: Likewise.
	* java/lang/natObject.cc: Move thread synchronization primitives to
	system-dependent headers.
