Looking at the testcase itself, I see this
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk/jdk/file/6f98d0173a72/test/hotspot/jtreg/serviceability/sa/ClhsdbCDSCore.java#l112
if (Platform.isOSX()) {
File coresDir = new File("/cores");
if (!coresDir.isDirectory() || !coresDir.canWrite()) {
throw new Error("cores is not a directory or does not have write
permissions");
I'm on OSX. So this test expects a directory called "cores" at the root
of the filesystem? That looks odd. I don't have any such directory.
Correction - I do have that directory (my "ls" command that I previously
used to check had a typo), but that /cores directory is owned by "root"
and the test is running as a regular user.
-Jaikiran
$ ls -ld /cores
drwxrwxr-t 2 root admin 64 Nov 4 09:22 /cores/
so the directory on my macOSX machine is writable by group 'admin'
and my login happens to belong to group 'admin'.
