The feature to dump the JFR file during a crash is a best effort feature. It cannot be guaranteed to work ever time. This is why the test case already used 3 attempts. But the timing of the test has been changed , because we parse the dwarf information now. And this almost guarantees that we run into a case where the dump will not work on these platforms, rendering this test almost useless.
