> [JDK-8318694](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8318694) limited the ability for JVMCI CompilerThreads to make Java upcalls. This is to mitigate against deadlock when an upcall does class loading. Class loading can easily create deadlock situations in `-Xcomp` or `-Xbatch` mode.

This occurs when the Graal inliner sees a constant Truffle AST node which allows a Truffle-specific inlining extension to perform Truffle partial evaluation (PE) on the constant. Such PE involves upcalls to the Truffle runtime (running in Java).
