Hi,

This is a request to backport a jdk8 fix into jdk7u-dev.

https://jbs.oracle.com/bugs/browse/JDK-8010939

bugs.sun.com ref : http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=8010939

Approved.

regards,
Sean.

This fixes an out-of-order synchronization in LogManager.

The webrev for this backport is http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jgish/Bug8010939-LogManager-Deadlock.7u-dev.backport/ <http://cr.openjdk.java.net/%7Ejgish/Bug8010939-LogManager-Deadlock.7u-dev.backport/>

The patch is equivalent (small diffs in line numbers), to the one already in JDK8:

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/e8f1dc6d0c0c

Thanks,
    Jim

(JPRT already run and the core tests pass)
