Array accesses using sun.misc.Unsafe cause data corruption or SIGSEGV

Hi,

I have added some logs to show that problem is caused by double scaling of
offset (index)

Here is my updated (log messages added) reproducer code:


int count = 100000;
long size = count * 8L;
long baseAddress = unsafe.allocateMemory(size);
System.out.println("Start address: " + Long.toHexString(baseAddress) +
                   ", End address: " + Long.toHexString(baseAddress +
size));

for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
    long address = baseAddress + (i * 8L);
    System.out.println(
        "Normal: " + Long.toHexString(address) + ", " +
        "If double scaled: " + Long.toHexString(baseAddress + (i * 8L *
8L)));
    long expected = i;
    unsafe.putLong(address, expected);
    unsafe.getLong(address);
}


After sometime it crashes as


...
Current thread (0x0000000002068800):  JavaThread "main" [_thread_in_Java,
id=10412, stack(0x00000000023f0000,0x00000000024f0000)]

siginfo: ExceptionCode=0xc0000005, reading address 0x0000000059061020
...
...


And here is output of the execution until crash:

Start address: 58bbcfa0, End address: 58c804a0
Normal: 58bbcfa0, If double scaled: 58bbcfa0
Normal: 58bbcfa8, If double scaled: 58bbcfe0
Normal: 58bbcfb0, If double scaled: 58bbd020
...
...
Normal: 58c517b0, If double scaled: 59061020


As seen from the logs and crash dump, double scaled version of target
address (*If double scaled: 59061020*) is the same with the problematic
address (*siginfo: ExceptionCode=0xc0000005, reading address
0x0000000059061020*) that causes to crash while accessing it.

So I think, it is obvious that the crash is caused by wrong optimization of
index value since index is scaled two times (for *Unsafe::put* and
*Unsafe::get*) instead of only one time. Then double scaled index points to
invalid memory address.

Regards.
