众所周知，Java语言中，Object对象有个特殊的方法：hashcode(), hashcode()表示的是JVM虚拟机为这个Object对象分配的一个int类型的数值，JVM会使用对象的hashcode值来提高对HashMap、Hashtable哈希表存取对象的使用效率。而在很多网上的教程中告诉我们的是hashcode返回的是对象的内存地址。然而实际使用中会发现哈希值存在负数的情况，而内存地址肯定不会用负数表示，因此有了本文对其底层实现进一步进行探索。须知的是，不同的JRE对这些方法的实现各有不同，只是遵循着Java对这些方法所订立的规范进行设计的，本文基于的是openJDK的源码。
首先我们确认一下hashcode()方法返回值到底是不是内存地址:
import java.lang.reflect.Field;
import sun.misc.Unsafe;
public class HashcodeTest {
private static Unsafe unsafe;
static {
try {
Field field = Unsafe.class.getDeclaredField("theUnsafe");
field.setAccessible(true);
unsafe = (Unsafe) field.get(null);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static long addressOf(Object o) throws Exception {
Object[] array = new Object[] { o };
long baseOffset = unsafe.arrayBaseOffset(Object[].class);
int addressSize = unsafe.addressSize();
long objectAddress;
switch (addressSize) {
case 4:
objectAddress = unsafe.getInt(array, baseOffset);
break;
case 8:
objectAddress = unsafe.getLong(array, baseOffset);
break;
default:
throw new Error("unsupported address size: " + addressSize);
}
return (objectAddress);
}
public static void main(String... args) throws Exception {
Object object = "object";
long address_1 = addressOf(object);
int address_2 = object.hashCode();
System.out.println("Addess: " + address_1+" "+address_2);
}
}
代码中用到了大名鼎鼎的Unsafe类，它提供了绕开"安全"的JVM机制直接调用"native"的底层方法的功能，在java.concurrent包中大量使用了其提供的CAS功能。

由结果中可以看出两者是截然不同的两个整型数。
那JDK到底是通过什么策略来生成哈希值的呢？
查看openJDK 关于 java.lang.Object类及其hashcode()方法的定义
public native int hashCode();
即该方法是一个本地方法，Java将调用本地方法库对此方法的实现。由于Object类中有JNI方法调用，按照JNI的规则，应当生成JNI 的头文件，在此目录下执行javah -jni java.lang.Object 指令，将生成一个java_lang_Object.h头文件，该头文件将在后面用到它:

从上面的追根溯源可以发现，在openJDK中实现了多种不同的hash值计算策略，只有一种是直接返回对象的内存地址。
