Hi Gary,

Unfortunately GetStackTrace() returns the top frame as the first frame in the array. Thus if the thread is not suspended and later you call GetFrameLocation() for some depth, there's no way to make sure the frame at that depth is the same frame at that depth in the array returned by GetStackTrace() unless you first suspend the frame before calling GetFrameLocation(). You would also need to call GetFrameCount() while suspended, compare that with the number of frames returned by GetStackTrace(), and make any needed depth adjustments. But since I think the intent is to not suspend the thread here, it probably does not make sense to do that, and instead accept that there might be some errors as you have done.
I'm not totally comfortable with these attempted operations and then
bypassing the test failure if the threads were not suspended.
Would it be better to only perform check  thread operations on the
suspended threads and to totally skip the operations that can not
be safely performed when the thread is not suspended.

One improvement I would like to see for your fix is to only ignore JVMTI_ERROR_NO_MORE_FRAMES rather than ignore all failures when suspended == NSK_TRUE.
The current layering of the macros and verify routines do not lend themselves to this sort of selective error checking. I'd probably file a follow up bug to
address specific error checking.

Also, I don't think you want the suspended check here:

 348         /* check if expected method frame found */
 349         if ((suspended == NSK_TRUE) && (found <= 0)) {

The check for finding the method is:

 341             if (frameStack[j].method == threadsDesc[i].method) {

Since frameStack[] is returned by GetStackTrace(), it is not impacted when not suspended, and the expected method should always be in frameStack[] somewhere. The issue is only with using GetFrameLocation() to correlate what is in the result of GetStackTrace().
Agreed. The early continuation was bypassing the found method checking.

BTW, another failure has been detected in sp06t001. This time the threads are suspended, but I believe there is a race between thread start and the call to interrupt() the thread. I think there may be some confusion over which thread is invoking the interrupt() call. It is running on the main thread from the code after a call to start the thread, but the
thread may not have run when the interrupt is requested.

public class sp06t001 extends DebugeeClass {
...

        // create threads list
        threads = new sp06t001Thread[] {
            new sp06t001ThreadRunning("threadRunning", log),
            new sp06t001ThreadEntering("threadEntering", log),
            new sp06t001ThreadWaiting("threadWaiting", log),
            new sp06t001ThreadSleeping("threadSleeping", log),
new sp06t001ThreadRunningInterrupted("threadRunningInterrupted", log),
            new sp06t001ThreadRunningNative("threadRunningNative", log)
        };

        // run threads
        log.display("Starting tested threads");
        try {
            synchronized (endingMonitor) {
                // start threads (except first one)
                for (int i = 0; i < threads.length; i++) {
                    threads[i].start();
                    if (!threads[i].checkReady()) {
                        throw new Failure("Unable to prepare thread ..."
...

class sp06t001ThreadRunningInterrupted extends sp06t001Thread {
...
    public boolean checkReady() {
        // interrupt thread on wait()
        synchronized (waitingMonitor) {
            interrupt();
        }
        return true;
    }

The following fake exception stacktrace is for failure analysis.

In this particular failure, the GetFrameLocation call failed, because the frame was no longer
accessible.

If the threads are not suspended, the GetFrameLocation may fail,
or if it passes, the qMethod and qLocation could belong to another
frame.

I've updated the webrev to allow the call to GetFrameLocation, but to only report an error if the threads are suspended. Similarly, the checks to compare
qMethod and qLocation will be skipped, if the threads are not suspended.
And the final comparison that the method was found will only be an error
if the threads are suspended.

After some testing with nsk verbose messages enabled,
it is clear that this test is failing in checkThreads when the
location did not match between the call to GetStackTrace
and GetFrameLocation. For the tests that are run when the threads
have not been suspended, there is no guarantee the locations
will match.
