// develop flags are settable / visible only during development and are constant in the PRODUCT version
// product flags are always settable / visible
// notproduct flags are settable / visible only during development and are not declared in the PRODUCT version

// A flag must be declared with one of the following types:
// bool, intx, uintx, ccstr.
// The type "ccstr" is an alias for "const char*" and is used
// only in this file, because the macrology requires single-token type names.

// Note: Diagnostic options not meant for VM tuning or for product modes.
// They are to be used for VM quality assurance or field diagnosis
// of VM bugs.  They are hidden so that users will not be encouraged to
// try them as if they were VM ordinary execution options.  However, they
// are available in the product version of the VM.  Under instruction
// from support engineers, VM customers can turn them on to collect
// diagnostic information about VM problems.  To use a VM diagnostic
// option, you must first specify +UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions.
// (This master switch also affects the behavior of -Xprintflags.)
//
// experimental flags are in support of features that are not
//    part of the officially supported product, but are available
//    for experimenting with. They could, for example, be performance
//    features that may not have undergone full or rigorous QA, but which may
//    help performance in some cases and released for experimentation
//    by the community of users and developers. This flag also allows one to
//    be able to build a fully supported product that nonetheless also
//    ships with some unsupported, lightly tested, experimental features.
//    Like the UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions flag above, there is a corresponding
//    UnlockExperimentalVMOptions flag, which allows the control and
//    modification of the experimental flags.
//
// manageable flags are writeable external product flags.
//    They are dynamically writeable through the JDK management interface
//    (com.sun.management.HotSpotDiagnosticMXBean API) and also through JConsole.
//    These flags are external exported interface (see CCC).  The list of
//    manageable flags can be queried programmatically through the management
//    interface.
//
//    A flag can be made as "manageable" only if
//    - the flag is defined in a CCC as an external exported interface.
//    - the VM implementation supports dynamic setting of the flag.
//      This implies that the VM must *always* query the flag variable
//      and not reuse state related to the flag state at any given time.
//    - you want the flag to be queried programmatically by the customers.
//
// product_rw flags are writeable internal product flags.
//    They are like "manageable" flags but for internal/private use.
//    The list of product_rw flags are internal/private flags which
//    may be changed/removed in a future release.  It can be set
//    through the management interface to get/set value
//    when the name of flag is supplied.
//
//    A flag can be made as "product_rw" only if
//    - the VM implementation supports dynamic setting of the flag.
//      This implies that the VM must *always* query the flag variable
//      and not reuse state related to the flag state at any given time.
//
// Note that when there is a need to support develop flags to be writeable,
// it can be done in the same way as product_rw.
