Hi Jie,
Instead of using an obscure call Reference.reachabilityFence(loader),
how about just making "loader" a static field in the test class, so it
will be kept alive until it's explicitly set to null?
Thanks

Hi all,
JBS: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8225648
Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jiefu/8225648/webrev.00/
The failure was caused by the lost of an OopMap item for the object
"loader"[1] which was optimized out by JIT with liveness analysis
optimization.
It seems that this case is only suitable for testing interpreters
which is not friendly to optimized JITs at all.
Although not every test would work with Xcomp (for various reasons),
it's beneficial to make more tests suitable for JIT testing.
I just hope tests in tier1 would pass with Xcomp.
The goal seems to be reached if this bug and JDK-8225644[2] could be
fixed.
Could you please review it?
Thanks a lot.
Best regards,
Jie
