> # Problem
> The `AbortVMOnException` flag prints the stack trace instead of aborting when the code gets compiled with C1.
> This only happens when the exception gets unwound, all methods in the call stack are compiled with C1 and there are no exception handlers for that exception.
> This happens here (for x86. Other platform's implementations are similar):
>

> 
> # Solution
> To catch this situation, if `AbortVMOnException` is set, a call to check if there is a match is added when unwinding the exception. This is done in the `void Runtime1::generate_unwind_exception` which is the sole call of the `unwind_exception_id` case.
> 
> A regression test is added as well.
> 
> # Testing
> This fix includes changes for x86_32/64 and aarch64, which I could test thoroughly but also for **arm**, **ppc**, **riscv**, and **s390** for which I would **need some help with testing**.
