Hi, Could I please get a review of this one-liner change related to jhsdb --mixed when attaching to a running Java process? The issue arises when threads are in native code and that native code has frame pointers not properly preserved. In such a case the SA performs a simple frame pointer valididy check: ebp >= esp
However, the code of retrieving the value for esp is incorrect in as much as it's not in sync with native code in regards to the register index: native code => X86ThreadContext.SP Java code => X86ThreadContext.ESP X86ThreadContext.ESP is never being set by the native code. Since X86ThreadContext.getRegisterAsAddress(X86ThreadContext.ESP) then returns null, ebp.lessThan(esp) wrongly returns false causing the issue. This webrev fixes it by using SP as index on the Java side. Thoughts? webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sgehwolf/webrevs/JDK-8208091/webrev.01/ bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8208091 Thanks, Severin
