Hi all,

Please review this small patch to fix the max heap size check in ZGC.

https://cr.openjdk.java.net/~stefank/8231563/webrev.01/
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8231563

After this fix the JVM refuses to start if a too high -Xmx is set:

$ java -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+UseZGC -Xmx17t -version:
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Java heap too large

Thanks,
StefanK
