      Description

        Currently annotation processing is all at the Java level. This works well, except for annotations which the low-level code of the JVM wants to look at.

        We want to inject programmer-written directives for VM-specific optimizations, and to experiment with special binding rules for other languages. This work will take place initially it the OpenJDK/mlvm project, and if it incubates well may be standardized.

        Current RFE is in two parts:

        1. put an annotation walker into the class file parser
        2. implement an annotation for decorating methods with Hotspot compiler oracle advice
