Right I understand we can't store the BasicLock* directly in owner, but the naming of this method has me confused as to what it actually does. With the old version we have: Before: owner = BasicLock* belonging to current After: owner = JavaThread* of current with the new version we have: Before: owner = ANONYMOUS_OWNER After: owner = tid of current so "BasicLock" doesn't mean anything here any more. Isn't this just `set_owner_from_anonymous` ? ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/21565#discussion_r1814330162
