I created CR 7128584: "Typo in sun.misc.VM's private directMemory field comment", for this issue, and will push Kris' change with Remi and myself as reviewer and listing Kris as the contributor.

Thanks,
-Chris.

I think it's better if it has it's own bug id and changeset.
I'm sure Joe can create a bug id for it.

Hi all,

Just found a little typo in sun.misc.VM:

I was looking for the default max direct memory size when I found this
comment. It would have been nice if this typo was fixed in 6977738. [1]
Could anybody include this fix in some future commits?
