Michael,

Thank you for testing changes.
Please, file JBS bug for xml.transform problem.

Thanks,
Vladimir

>> The stack offsets for the vmovdqu instructions are wrong, causing the XMM registers to contain random values after a safepoint. The problem is that "additional_frame_bytes" is added to the stack offset although the stack pointer is incremented just before:

>> The regression test fails with "Test failed: array[0] = 1973.0 but should be 10.000" because the vectorized loop returns a wrong result.

>> - the vmovdqu instructions should be emitted before restoring YMM and ZMM because they zero the upper part of the XMM registers (i.e. YMM/ZMM)
>> - if 'UseAVX > 2' is set/available, we save the ZMM registers as well but we do not increment 'additional_frame_words' accordingly (we need another 8*32 bytes of stack space)
