1. jdk.internal.vm.VMSupport#serializePropertiesToByteArray - Looking
at the implementation in this method and as the name suggests, the
Properties is being written out a byte array. This method gets called
from native code, from what I can see. I'll need a bit of help on this
one to understand whether that usage in the native code would benefit
from switching to the new API (when it is introduced) for
reproducibility when it comes to this call in
VMSupport#serializePropertiesToByteArray.
This is the VM side of the attach mechanism. The API to look at is
com.sun.tools.attach.VirtualMachine::getSystemProperties. When this
method is invoked (by a tool) then response is a byte stream of the
property list (8859-1 encoded). I wouldn't expect you should need to
touch this one.
