[14-dev] RFR : (dc) MulticastSendReceiveTests.java failing with ENOMEM when joining group (OS X 10.9)

[Ivan Gerasimov]

Hello!

An OOM error is intermittently observed on MacOS when joining a 
multicast group.

A workaround was implemented as part of the fix for JDK-8236925.

It is proposed to backport a portion of that fix, which helps to 
mitigate the issue on MacOS.
