Thanks for updating the webrev!
A couple of comments:
MemoryTestAllGC.sh
The test is run three times, once with no params, once with ParallelGC
and once with CMS. So, I think the @requires should just be vm.gc ==
"null". Similarly to what was done for PendingAllGC.sh.
TestInputArgument.sh
The changes here seem unrelated to @requires.
EnqueuePollRace.java
Can you explain why it is safe to remove -XX:+UseSerialGC for this test?
JpsHelper.java
Can you explain why it is safe to remvoe -XX:+UseParallelGC for this test?
When I use Aurora to check what tests that currently are considered
known because of JDK-8019361 I get a pretty long list:
http://aurora.ru.oracle.com/functional/faces/CRRules.xhtml?cr=JDK-8019361
Are the tests in webrev.03 the only tests that still fail? Have the
others been fixed in other ways?
Thanks,
Bengt
