    • Type: Bug

    • Priority: P4
    • port-stage-ppc-aix
    • Affects Version/s: port-stage-ppc-aix

    • None

        This fixes some issues in the ppc and aix coding of the port:

        Fix stack overflow issue: code branched to zero.
        Fix: Generate throw_StackOverflowError stub before generating
        the native entry.

        Fix assertion when looking for nmethod in code cache:
        use unsafe accessor. Also optimize: don't look up the
        address twice.

        Fix compressing klass pointers.

        Implement some missing stuff in the aix os branch.
