Sharath Ballal reviewed it, but he's not a Reviewer as per the OpenJDK
census. As to whether he knows the code, I don't know. He's on CC.
Yes, but I was asking for a second reviewer (not counting me).

This only impacts 32-bit, right? If so, keep in mind that it won't get tested 
by Oracle
testing, including the submit repo, so make sure you do thorough testing.
It only impacts 32-bit, yes. I understand that Oracle isn't testing 32-
bit x86 any more. The change itself should be fairly low risk since
it's changing only a 32-bit-x86-linux-only file and the native bits
don't seem to match what the Java code does[1]. REG_INDEX(reg) being
defined as:

#define REG_INDEX(reg) sun_jvm_hotspot_debugger_x86_X86ThreadContext_##reg

and being used as:

REG_INDEX(SP)

Thus, using

sun_jvm_hotspot_debugger_x86_X86ThreadContext_SP

The Java code uses:

sun.jvm.hotspot.debugger.x86.X86ThreadContext.ESP

Also, why is there any code being executed that was not compiled with
-fno-omit-frame-pointer? The description in the CR just shows a simple
java program reproducing this, so all the mixed stack traces belong to
the JVM and libs, and I thought we made sure to compile all of them with
-fno-omit-frame-pointer.
The JVM uses glibc and that simple program is enough to see some
thread's stack currently being in a glibc function when getting a mixed
stack trace. We've originally seen this in JDK 8 with jstack -m and was
reported in [2]. That comment has more details. The problem here isn't
that it's a JDK lib which gets compiled without -fno-omit-frame-
pointer. It's glibc not being compiled with that option.

An example stack trace for a system where this happens looks like this:

Thread 7 (Thread 0xa3863b40 (LWP 834)):
#0  0xf771f430 in __kernel_vsyscall ()

That is, frames 0-3 are JDK foreign. This bug will happen on all
systems which use any native library which isn't compiled with -fno-
omit-frame-pointer. Be it glibc or some other library.
Ok. It looks like we don't even have a "jstack --mixed" test. Could you add one? It would be even better if the test included a JNI lib that wasn't compiled with -fno-omit-frame-pointer so you don't need to rely on glibc to reproduce this issue (or is glibc pretty much always compiled without -fno-omit-frame-pointer)? Or if Sharath agrees, file a bug to have a test added.

thanks,

Chris

Thanks for the review, Sharath!

I am not a reviewer though, so you still need a Reviewer to review.
Anyone?

Thanks,

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?

Anyone willing to review this one-liner?
