VerifyLiveClosure::verify_liveness asserts on bad pointers outside heap

XMLWordPrintable

    • gc
    • b10

      G1 uses this closure to verify object references. It has the following issues:

      - it uses decode_not_null which will assert if the given oop address is not in the heap, making the remainder of the verification useless in that case
      - if the referenced object is not in the heap, we try to get its heap region too when printing, which also fails some assertions
      - in the innermost if lots of code is duplicated in both cases

      Fix these issues.
