Sergey,

Since you proposed this version of the fix, do you want to push it ?

Hi, Phil, Alexey.

I recheck this bug, and here is some of my thought:
1. We have two java classes:
    - GLX/CGL/WGL/GraphicsConfig which maintain the native structure 
WGL/GLX/CGL/GraphicsConfigInfo
    - GLX/CGL/WGL/SurfaceData which maintain the native structure 
CGL/GLXS/WGL/SDOps
2. The native structures should be disposed of by the "Disposer" machinery
3. The native part XXXSDOps has a pointer to the CGL/GraphicsConfigInfo
4. To prevent the usage of dangling pointer to the XXXGraphicsConfigInfo, the 
java part of XXXSDOps has a strong reference to the java part of 
XXXGraphicsConfigInfo

The assumption at point 4 is not correct, it is possible that the native part 
of the XXXGraphicsConfigInfo could be disposed before XXXSDOps, and we will get 
a crash when we will try to dispose the XXXSDOps.

Long time ago when it was implemented it works fine, because we never dispose 
the graphics configs, we read them on-start and use till the end of the 
application, even now we use this approach on Linux(JDK-8076313).

So this bug existed on Linux, Windows and migrated to the macOS platform, but 
only on macOS and windows we can get a crash.


I have rechecked the usage of the pointer from XXXSDOps to 
XXXGraphicsConfigInfo which caused a crash and think that we can get rid it, 
but it will required to change bunch of code on all platforms, so as a minimal 
fix I suggest this one:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~serb/8146238/webrev.00
Just to store the reference to the GC till the moment it will not be used by 
the SurfaceData.

Sergey,
This fix seems OK to me. Can you please do whatever re-evaluation you meant
as I'd like to pull it into jdk/client for Alexey (since he does not have 
current commit rights).

3. Is there a plan to get this bug fix into the JRE distributed by Oracle?
I will reevaluate the fix for inclusion in jdk11.
