Hello, is it possible to have a code review for the changes proposed in JDK-8251548 (originally contributed via https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/security-dev/2020-June/022137.html)?
Sean Mullan has created an issue and web-review and can sponsor the patch as soos as it gets properly reviewed. The issue itself is a continuation of changes merged into java.base before as: - https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-6736490 - https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8035284 - https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8145680 As Doug Lea claims in http://cs.oswego.edu/pipermail/concurrency-interest/2015-December/014770.html > there is never any reason to explicitly initialize fields to 0/0.0/false/null so I believe this patch is harmless as well as previous ones.
