Please, review the fix for:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8068162
Open webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sspitsyn/webrevs/2014/hotspot/8068162-JVMTI-old.1/
Summary:
The sun.misc.Unsafe:throwIllegalAccessError() method is used in
place of a default
interface method in the itable if a default method was not defined
in the interface.
This approach creates a problem when the class sun.misc.Unsafe is
retransformed.
The Method* pointer to the old (redefined) method in the itable
triggers an assert
(see the hs_err log in the bug report).
The fix is to replace the old method in the itable with the latest
method version.
Testing:
In progress: nsk.jdi.testlist, JTREG java/lang/instrument tests
Thanks,
Serguei
