Hi,
Please review this fix for:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8028498
Webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sjohanss/8028498/webrev.00/
Summary:
The initial young generation size has been fairly small by default
(1.5M) and if setting ObjectAlignmentInBytes to something larger than
the default it can causes CDS to trigger a GC when dumping the archive.
At this point the VM is not ready to handle a GC and we will hit an
assertion. Making sure we can handle a GC at this point is not trivial
and the proposed solution is to alter the default sizing of the young
generation as well as adding a safety check when dumping the archive to
exit the VM if the young generation is too small.
Testing:
* JPRT build and test passes
* Failing test now passes on all platforms (tested throught JPRT)
* Verified that the GC and Runtime jtreg tests still passes
Cheers,
Stefan
