Hello, very similiar to JDK-8080741 we had a crash with 8u51 on Linux. It looks like it is happening while dumping the heap in a out of memory condition. The bug talks about it is happenign on constrained heap, but it looks more like related to OutOfMemory dumps (in both cases).
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8080741 I do have a corefile and a javacore hs_err file, butcant post it publically. Do you think it is worth to reconsider opening that bug again (its closed as incomplete currently)? Let me know if you need more extracts from the log. # Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (25.51-b03 mixed mode linux-amd64 compressed oops) # Problematic frame: # V [libjvm.so+0x683c5b] java_lang_Class::signers(oopDesc*)+0x1b ...
