TestInstanceKlassSize was failing because, for PowerPC, the following code (instanceKlass.cpp) always compiles to `return false;` bool InstanceKlass::has_stored_fingerprint() const { #if INCLUDE_AOT return should_store_fingerprint() || is_shared(); #else return false; #endif } However, in `hasStoredFingerprint()@InstanceKlass.java` the condition `shouldStoreFingerprint() || isShared();` is always evaluated and may return true (_AFAIK isShared() returns true_). Such condition adds 8 bytes in the `getSize()@InstanceKlass.java` causing the failure in TestInstanceKlassSize: public long getSize() { // in number of bytes ... if (hasStoredFingerprint()) { size += 8; // uint64_t } return alignSize(size); } Considering these tests are failing for PowerPC only (_based on ProblemList.txt_), my solution checks if `hasStoredFingerprint()` is running on a PowerPC platform. I decided to go this way because there is no existing flag informing whether AOT is included or not and creating a new one just to handle the PowerPC case seems too much.
