Print All JVM Flags

Do not miss also -XX:+JVMCIPrintProperties for Graal JIT options.

Before dive into sources you can skim over following extracts and find suitable option faster:

The best documentation I've found is the source.

I've used this SO Q&A to create a debug build. With this debug build, you can run java -XX:+AggressiveOpts -XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+PrintFlagsFinal -XX:+PrintFlagsWithComments -version.

From the directory with the sources, you could execute (assuming you are using Linux, Cygwin or the like):

grep -FR 'UnlockExperimentalVMOptions' hotspot/

Or, the following (which only looks at *.cpp and *.hpp files):

find hotspot/ -name '*.[ch]pp' -exec grep -F 'UnlockExperimentalVMOptions' {} +

Then look at the source files. Probably the best reason why there is no one document that describes all options is that some of these options are better left to those who really understand the JVM and the best way to do that is to become intimately familiar with the source code.

So, in the words (almost) of a great master, use the source!
