Dear all,
please review this bugfix for AIX.
Issue
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8172964
Webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~stuefe/webrevs/8172964-AIX-SIGDANGER/webrev/
In short, this removes the handling for SIGDANGER from the hotspot.
Handling SIGDANGER has almost no benefit for us but interferes with AIX OOM
killing mechanism, making effects of ow-paging-space situations on AIX more
severe than they would need to be.
For more details, please see the bug report.
Thanks & Kind Regards,
Thomas
