Each generated change notification is assigned a classification. The change notifications are applied selectively to update the manifest, wherein the selective update is based on the classification of the change notification.

Abstract: During verification of a bytecode, when a second class remains to be loaded for verification in an MRE, a verifier in the MRE is prevented from loading the second class, where the bytecode includes a relationship between a first class and the second class. The relationship is recorded and the verifier is caused to omit a loading operation on the second class. An execution is started of an application encoded in the bytecode. The second class is caused to be loaded and verified prior to a use of the second class during the execution.

Abstract: Identifying and reporting potential data inconsistencies and/or potential data contentions based on historic debugging traces. Based on replay of a thread, some implementations observe an influx of a value to a memory cell, and determine whether the value of the memory cell observed from the influx is inconsistent with a prior value of the memory cell as known by the thread. If so, these implementations can initiate an indication of a data inconsistency. Based on replay of a plurality of threads, other implementations identify a memory cell that was accessed by a first thread while a thread synchronization mechanism was active on the first thread. Then, if there was another access to the memory cell by a second thread without use of the thread synchronization mechanism, these implementations might initiate an indication of a potential data contention.

Abstract: Technologies are disclosed for identifying firmware functions that were executed in a call chain prior to the occurrence of an error condition, such as an assert or an exception. In particular, a search is made from an instruction pointer (“IP”) for a memory address containing a signature identifying a firmware module. The firmware module that includes a function that generated the error condition can be identified based on the memory address. The name of the function that generated the error condition can be identified using a function mapping file. Previous functions in the same call chain are identified and their names determined using the function mapping file. Output can then be generated that includes the name of the firmware module that includes the function that generated the error condition, the name of the function that generated the error condition, and the names of other functions in the same call chain.
