Hi Andrew,

I followed the same steps as the serviceabilty/sa/ClhsdbJstack.java test. You 
can see this failing in Linaro's results here:

http://openjdk.linaro.org/jdkX/openjdk-jtreg-nightly-tests/builds/release/2019/028/JTwork-hotspot/serviceability/sa/ClhsdbJstack.jtr

The stack trace you sent below is incomplete, it's missing the frame for 
Spinner.run (i.e. the AARCH64Frame object corresponding to the native wrapper 
frame). Did you try on x86 or with the patch I posted? I'm not able to test at 
the moment but I think you will get one exra frame in the output. I don't know 
why you don't get the NPE, I guess it depends on what's in that stack slot.

Nick

This does not happen for me. I have a test case which runs a native
method; the native method does not return. I then run jstack -v and
get a clean stack trace, regardless of whether it's interpreted or
compiled:

"main" #1 prio=5 tid=0x0000ffff7001a000 nid=0x596c runnable [0x0000ffff7624e000]
   java.lang.Thread.State: RUNNABLE
   JavaThread state: _thread_in_native
 - Spinner.main(java.lang.String[]) @bci=0, line=9, pc=0x0000ffff6d6954d8, 
Method*=0x0000ffff2321e380 (Compiled frame; information may be imprecise)

Locked ownable synchronizers:
    - None

I tried various combinations of Xcomp and tiered compilation, release
and debug builds. What did you do?
