 // A handshake closure is a callback that is executed for each JavaThread
 // while that thread is in a safepoint safe state. The callback is executed
 // either by the thread itself or by the VM thread while keeping the thread
 // in a blocked state. A handshake can be performed with a single
 // JavaThread as well. In that case the callback is executed either by the
-// thread itself or, depending on wether the operation is a direct handshake
+// thread itself or, depending on whether the operation is a direct handshake
 // or not, by the JavaThread that requested the handshake or the VMThread
