That's why we closed this PR. The conversation here is some what hard to follow. I do see that "foreign threads" was mentioned by @tstuefe in the context of AGCT but I have to assume he misspoke there (assuming a foreign thread is one not attached to the VM) as AGCT only works for attached JavaThreads. The signal handler that will call AGCT has to be prepared to find any kind of thread in any state, but AGCT should only be called on the right kinds of thread in the right state. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/7727
