I think the problem in `AtomicReferenceFieldUpdater` being passed a static field exists for the other kinds of field updaters too. Currently the IAE is thrown by Unsafe, which is a hidden contract and can be inadvertently changed and affect the APIs; we might consider throwing IAE for static fields explicitly instead to avoid this pitfall. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/25880#issuecomment-2985285177
