Description
Hi,

I've been doing some testing on a G1 merge with the GC baseline and I hit the following assertion:

# To suppress the following error report, specify this argument
# after -XX: or in .hotspotrc:  SuppressErrorAt=/compile.cpp:2032
#
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
#  Internal Error (/java/east/u2/ap31282/hotspot-gc/src/share/vm/opto/compile.cpp:2032), pid=12778, tid=26
#  Error: assert(!addp->is_AddP() || addp->in(AddPNode::Base)->is_top() || addp->in(AddPNode::Base) == n->in(AddPNode::Base),"Base pointers must match")
#
# Java VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (14.0-b01-internal-fastdebug mixed mode solaris-sparc compressed oops)
# An error report file with more information is saved as:
# /java/east/u2/ap31282/gc_test_suite_sparcv9/dacapo/hs_err_pid12778.log
#
# If you would like to submit a bug report, please visit:
#   http://java.sun.com/webapps/bugreport/crash.jsp
#

I can also reproduce it with the latest GC baseline (i.e., no G1 stuff in it). It only seems to happen with sparcv9 (sparc and x86 were clean; I didn't try amd64) and both CMS and SerialGC. I can easily reproduce it with the dacapo eclipse benchmark and a fastdebug VM (basically, it crashes every time). Ah, and I just noticed that compressed oops were being turned on. Turning them off makes the assert disappear.

Is this known? I would be happy to give you instructions on how to reproduce it (or even do more testing...).

Tony

EVALUATION During PhaseIdealLoop::split_if_with_blocks_post, if a shared loop-varying computation has no loop-varying uses then a copy is cloned to the uses. The copying logic is fairly blind and since gvn will recommon the cloned operations it removes the nodes from the worklist so that they won't re-GVN. There's an existing cutout that skips the yank is the node is a Load and the comments around it suggests that it's done because the node could be the base of an AddP. With compressed oops the base of AddPs is normally a DecodeN so the logic needs to test for DecodeN as well.
