Description

Hi all,

Shark is a JIT compiler for Zero that uses the LLVM compiler
infrastructure to compile Java methods without introducing
system-specific code.  This webrev adds Shark support to
HotSpot:

  http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~gbenson/shark-hotspot-01/

And this webrev adds a little bit of build stuff to the
non-HotSpot parts of the JDK:

  http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~gbenson/shark-build-01/

Building Shark is much the same as building Zero, except
that instead of doing this:

  export ZERO_BUILD=true
  . jdk/make/jdk_generic_profile.sh
  gmake sanity && gmake

you do this:
  
  export SHARK_BUILD=true
  . jdk/make/jdk_generic_profile.sh
  gmake sanity && gmake

I don't have a bug id for either of these webrevs.

Cheers,
Gary
