Thank you David.
Regarding my status: you're right. I noticed it, too, but wasn't sure what to
do. Can you tell me?
You'll need to contact the JDK Project lead (Mark Reinhold) , as you
would have done when you got your JDK 9 Author role.
Cheers,
David
Thanks again, Richard.

Version 2 pushed.
Richard: I'm unclear about your Author status as you are somehow only
listed as a JDK 9 Author ? And I thought all existing Authors were
automatically added to the JDK project.
Cheers,
David

I would not consider this a bug, but rather a limitation. I don't see
a way to
work around it in the TestScaffold, though (looking at [1]).
So an enhancement would have to happen in the jdi implementation. To
me it does
not seem worth the effort. I'd say the tracing is not necessary for
regression
testing. In the case of a test error where all that output is
required, I'd
start the debuggee in a shell and do the debugging manually.
Regarding -Xcomp: makes a lot of sense for tests that are indifferent
about the
execution mode. The test at hand triggers compilation of the central test
method. It does not help that much, to compile everything else, too.
Anyway, here is another webrev without excluding -Xcomp:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rrich/webrevs/2018/8213902/webrev.02/
I'd prefer the original webrev, because it's greener ;)
I would need a sponsor, too. Please take either one of the patches.
Thanks for reviewing,
Richard.

Hi Richard,
Is this not a test that's failing due to a real bug? Ie: if someone
were to really be running the program in this configuration (with
printcompilation and printinlining) and attaching a debugger, would
they not reach the same issue?
This is just a limitation of connecting process streams via finite
pipes. If the pipe can fill before the target process reaches the
point where it communicates back to the initial process (which would
trigger the initial process to start draining the pipe) then you
effectively deadlock.
So you either structure the tests so that they work correctly with the
finite pipes provided by the test scaffold, or you modify the test
scaffold to either provide a bigger pipe or else rework it to ensure
pipes can't fill and cause indefinite blocking.
For the case at hand fixing the test to not be so verbose is
reasonable in my opinion, though I'm not sure I'd remove Xcomp
altogether as Xcomp likes a range of programs to put it through its
paces.
But it wouldn't be unreasonable to file a RFE to make the TestScaffold
handle this better.
Cheers,
David
Should that not be fixed in some way instead? Or is this such an
improbable case that we just consider it ludicrous?
Thanks,
Jc

Hi,
could I please get reviews for the following small patch? It
fixes a
bug in the test
com/sun/jdi/SetLocalWhileThreadInNative.java that causes a
deadlock
when executed with
-vmoption:-Xcomp.
Deadlock:
Debuggee (SetLocalWhileThreadInNativeTarget):
- running with -Xcomp
- still in early start-up
- printed a lot on tty already, because -XX:+PrintCompilation
-XX:+PrintInlining are given
- java thread waits for compiler thread to finish compile task
- compiler thread is blocked in write on tty. tty buffer is
full,
because debugger is not yet
reading debuggee's output
Debugger
- waiting until connection to debugger is established
The fix is to remove -XX:+PrintCompilation -XX:+PrintInlining. In
addition it excludes the test if
running with -Xcomp, because that mode does not add a lot of
value,
as the test actually only needs
dontinline_testMethod() to be compiled. Running with -Xcomp just
wastes energy.
