Can I please get a review of this test-only change which addresses intermittent failures in `java/rmi/server/Unreferenced/leaseCheckInterval/LeaseCheckInterval.java`?
The `@summary` in that test's test definition about what this test does: > @summary When the "java.rmi.dgc.leaseValue" system property is set to a > value much lower than its default (10 minutes), then the server-side > user-visible detection of DGC lease expiration-- in the form of > Unreferenced.unreferenced() invocations and possibly even local garbage > collection (including weak reference notification, finalization, etc.)-- > may be delayed longer than expected. While this is not a spec violation > (because there are no timeliness guarantees for any of these garbage > collection-related events), the user might expect that an unreferenced() > invocation for an object whose last client has terminated abnormally > should occur on relatively the same time order as the lease value > granted. In its current form, the test uses a lease expiry of 10 seconds, launches a trivial `java` application which looks up the bound object from the registry and then terminates itself. After launching that trivial java application, the test then waits for 20 seconds, expecting that the `Unreferenced.unreferenced()` callback (upon lease expiry of 10 seconds) will be called within those 20 seconds. This wait intermittently fails because the `Unreferenced.unreferenced()` doesn't get called within those 20 seconds. Experiments show that the reason for these intermittent failures is due to the `SelfTerminator` application which does the registry lookup (and which involves connection establishment and communication over a socket) can sometimes take several seconds (5 or more for example). That effectively means that by the time this `SelfTerminator` starts its termination after the lookup, it's already several seconds into the "wait()" in the test. The commit in this PR cleans up the test to more accurately track the duration of how long it took between the lease expiry and the `Unreferenced.unreferenced()` callback to be invoked. Additionally, just to make the test more robust, the maximum expected duration has been increased to 60 seconds instead of 20 seconds. Given the text in the test's summary, I think this increase is still within the expectations of how long it takes for the callback to be invoked after the client has exited abnormally. The test continues to pass with this change and a test repeat of 50 too did not reproduce any failures. ------------- Commit messages: - 8170896: TEST_BUG: java/rmi/server/Unreferenced/leaseCheckInterval/LeaseCheckInterval.java failed with unreferenced() not invoked after 20.0 seconds Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/28919/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=jdk&pr=28919&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8170896 Stats: 79 lines in 2 files changed: 42 ins; 16 del; 21 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/28919.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/jdk.git pull/28919/head:pull/28919 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/28919
