// MetaspaceContext is a convenience bracket around:
//
// - a VirtualSpaceList managing a memory area used for Metaspace
// - a ChunkManager sitting atop of that which manages chunk freelists
//
// In a normal VM only one or two of these contexts ever exist: one for the metaspace, and
//  optionally another one for the compressed class space.
//
// For tests more contexts may be created, and this would also be a way to use Metaspace
//  for things other than class metadata. We would have to work on the naming then.
//
// - (Future TODO): Context should own a lock to guard it. Currently this stuff is guarded
//     by one global lock, the slightly misnamed Metaspace_expandlock, but that one
//     should be split into one per context.
// - (Future TODO): Context can/should have its own allocation alignment. That way we
//     can have different alignment between class space and non-class metaspace. That could
//     help optimize compressed class pointer encoding, see discussion for JDK-8244943).
