I think this is the right place but it is only for return values. There are a few functions where a parameter value can be a null pointer, e.g. in GetThreadState, SuspendThread, GetOwnedMonitorInfo the thread parameter can be a null pointer to mean the current thread. I don't think the introduction section has anywhere right now to say what a null pointer means. ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/19257#discussion_r1625458511
