/*
 *  -XX argument processing:
 *
 *  -XX arguments are defined in several places, such as:
 *      globals.hpp, globals_<cpu>.hpp, globals_<os>.hpp, <compiler>_globals.hpp, or <gc>_globals.hpp.
 *  -XX arguments are parsed in parse_argument().
 *  -XX argument bounds checking is done in check_vm_args_consistency().
 *
 * Over time -XX arguments may change. There are mechanisms to handle common cases:
 *
 *      ALIASED: An option that is simply another name for another option. This is often
 *               part of the process of deprecating a flag, but not all aliases need
 *               to be deprecated.
 *
 *               Create an alias for an option by adding the old and new option names to the
 *               "aliased_jvm_flags" table. Delete the old variable from globals.hpp (etc).
 *
 *   DEPRECATED: An option that is supported, but a warning is printed to let the user know that
 *               support may be removed in the future. Both regular and aliased options may be
 *               deprecated.
 *
 *               Add a deprecation warning for an option (or alias) by adding an entry in the
 *               "special_jvm_flags" table and setting the "deprecated_in" field.
 *               Often an option "deprecated" in one major release will
 *               be made "obsolete" in the next. In this case the entry should also have it's
 *               "obsolete_in" field set.
 *
 *     OBSOLETE: An option that has been removed (and deleted from globals.hpp), but is still accepted
 *               on the command line. A warning is printed to let the user know that option might not
 *               be accepted in the future.
 *
 *               Add an obsolete warning for an option by adding an entry in the "special_jvm_flags"
 *               table and setting the "obsolete_in" field.
 *
 *      EXPIRED: A deprecated or obsolete option that has an "accept_until" version less than or equal
 *               to the current JDK version. The system will flatly refuse to admit the existence of
 *               the flag. This allows a flag to die automatically over JDK releases.
 *
 *               Note that manual cleanup of expired options should be done at major JDK version upgrades:
 *                  - Newly expired options should be removed from the special_jvm_flags and aliased_jvm_flags tables.
 *                  - Newly obsolete or expired deprecated options should have their global variable
 *                    definitions removed (from globals.hpp, etc) and related implementations removed.
 *
 * Recommended approach for removing options:
 *
 * To remove options commonly used by customers (e.g. product, commercial -XX options), use
 * the 3-step model adding major release numbers to the deprecate, obsolete and expire columns.
 *
 * To remove internal options (e.g. diagnostic, experimental, develop options), use
 * a 2-step model adding major release numbers to the obsolete and expire columns.
 *
 * To change the name of an option, use the alias table as well as a 2-step
 * model adding major release numbers to the deprecate and expire columns.
 * Think twice about aliasing commonly used customer options.
 *
 * There are times when it is appropriate to leave a future release number as undefined.
 *
 * Tests:  Aliases should be tested in VMAliasOptions.java.
 *         Deprecated options should be tested in VMDeprecatedOptions.java.

// - As "deprecated" options age into "obsolete" options, move the entry into the
