Dan, Thank you very much for your help.
I'm then going to modify the test accordingly. In the -Xmixed mode the test will try to match the jstack output to both the frames patterns and will succeed if either of them matches. In the -Xint and -Xcomp mode the test will match to the corresponding pattern as you have indicated In case the test is executed with several of those three options specified together on the command line, the test will presume the option specified last takes precedence. Please, let me know if I'm missing something.

Even if the VM is in -Xmixed mode, code could get compiled and the stack trace output would show the compiled frame version and not the interpreted frame version. So: -Xint mode - the compiled frame version will not be seen -Xmixed mode - both versions may be seen depending on compile thresholds and other factors -Xcomp mode - the compiled frame version will be seen Dan > >> Best regards, >> Alexander >> >> ----- Original Message ----- >> From: staffan.lar...@oracle.com >> To: alexander.kulyakh...@oracle.com >> Cc: serviceability-dev@openjdk.java.net >> Sent: Thursday, January 21, 2016 5:20:14 PM GMT +03:00 Iraq >> Subject: Re: RFR: JDK-8147447: [TESTBUG] >> serviceability/tmtools/jstack/WaitNotifyThreadTest.java test fails >> >> isCompMode() will fail if the VM is started with both -Xcomp and -Xmixed. >> >> We need to find a better way to check if compiled mode is being used. >> Perhaps System.getProperty("java.vm.info").contains("compiled”) ? >> >> /Staffan >> >>> On 19 jan. 2016, at 11:59, Alexander Kulyakhtin >>> <alexander.kulyakh...@oracle.com> wrote: >>> >>> Hi, >>> >>> Could you, please, review this minor test-only change >>> >>> CR: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8147447 "[TESTBUG] >>> serviceability/tmtools/jstack/WaitNotifyThreadTest.java test fails" >>> Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~akulyakh/8147447/index.html >>> >>> The test WaitNotifyThreadTest.java tries expects to find in the jstack >>> output the string similar to: >>> 'waiting on <0x000000008f64e6d0> (a java.lang.Object)' >>> However, with the -Xcomp option turned on there is no object reference >>> available and the same strings look like: >>> 'waiting on <no object reference available>' >>> This causes the false failures of the test when executed with the -Xcomp >>> option. >>> >>> We are modifying the test so it takes into account the possible difference >>> between the jstack outputs. >>> >>> The same issue has been present in the legacy test from which this test has >>> been ported, so it is not a new and not a regression issue. >>> >>> Best regards, >>> Alexander
