Thread.sleep(0)的写法原理深入解析

int i = 0;
while (i<10000000) {
    // business logic
    //prevent long time gc
    if (i % 3000 == 0) {
        try {
            Thread.sleep(0);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

// Begin the process of bringing the system to a safepoint.
// Java threads can be in several different states and are
// stopped by different mechanisms:
//
//  1. Running interpreted
//     The interpeter dispatch table is changed to force it to
//     check for a safepoint condition between bytecodes.
//  2. Running in native code
//     When returning from the native code, a Java thread must check
//     the safepoint _state to see if we must block.  If the
//     VM thread sees a Java thread in native, it does
//     not wait for this thread to block.  The order of the memory
//     writes and reads of both the safepoint state and the Java
//     threads state is critical.  In order to guarantee that the
//     memory writes are serialized with respect to each other,
//     the VM thread issues a memory barrier instruction
//     (on MP systems).  In order to avoid the overhead of issuing
//     a memory barrier for each Java thread making native calls, each Java
//     thread performs a write to a single memory page after changing
//     the thread state.  The VM thread performs a sequence of
//     mprotect OS calls which forces all previous writes from all
//     Java threads to be serialized.  This is done in the
//     os::serialize_thread_states() call.  This has proven to be
//     much more efficient than executing a membar instruction
//     on every call to native code.
//  3. Running compiled Code
//     Compiled code reads a global (Safepoint Polling) page that
//     is set to fault if we are trying to get to a safepoint.
//  4. Blocked
//     A thread which is blocked will not be allowed to return from the
//     block condition until the safepoint operation is complete.
//  5. In VM or Transitioning between states
//     If a Java thread is currently running in the VM or transitioning
//     between states, the safepointing code will wait for the thread to
//     block itself when it attempts transitions to a new state.
