//** Dependencies represent assertions (approximate invariants) within
// the runtime system, e.g. class hierarchy changes.  An example is an
// assertion that a given method is not overridden; another example is
// that a type has only one concrete subtype.  Compiled code which
// relies on such assertions must be discarded if they are overturned
// by changes in the runtime system.  We can think of these assertions
// as approximate invariants, because we expect them to be overturned
// very infrequently.  We are willing to perform expensive recovery
// operations when they are overturned.  The benefit, of course, is
// performing optimistic optimizations (!) on the object code.
//
// Changes in the class hierarchy due to dynamic linking or
// class evolution can violate dependencies.  There is enough
// indexing between classes and nmethods to make dependency
// checking reasonably efficient.

  // Note: In the comments on dependency types, most uses of the terms
  // subtype and supertype are used in a "non-strict" or "inclusive"
  // sense, and are starred to remind the reader of this fact.
  // Strict uses of the terms use the word "proper".
  //
  // Specifically, every class is its own subtype* and supertype*.
  // (This trick is easier than continually saying things like "Y is a
  // subtype of X or X itself".)
  //
  // Sometimes we write X > Y to mean X is a proper supertype of Y.
  // The notation X > {Y, Z} means X has proper subtypes Y, Z.
  // The notation X.m > Y means that Y inherits m from X, while
  // X.m > Y.m means Y overrides X.m.  A star denotes abstractness,
  // as *I > A, meaning (abstract) interface I is a super type of A,
  // or A.*m > B.m, meaning B.m implements abstract method A.m.
  //
  // In this module, the terms "subtype" and "supertype" refer to
  // Java-level reference type conversions, as detected by
  // "instanceof" and performed by "checkcast" operations.  The method
  // Klass::is_subtype_of tests these relations.  Note that "subtype"
  // is richer than "subclass" (as tested by Klass::is_subclass_of),
  // since it takes account of relations involving interface and array
  // types.
  //
  // To avoid needless complexity, dependencies involving array types
  // are not accepted.  If you need to make an assertion about an
  // array type, make the assertion about its corresponding element
  // types.  Any assertion that might change about an array type can
  // be converted to an assertion about its element type.
  //
  // Most dependencies are evaluated over a "context type" CX, which
  // stands for the set Subtypes(CX) of every Java type that is a subtype*
  // of CX.  When the system loads a new class or interface N, it is
  // responsible for re-evaluating changed dependencies whose context
