Question about the Method Exit Test

Hi all. In the Method Exit test https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/test/hotspot/jtreg/serviceability/jvmti/vthread/MethodExitTest/MethodExitTest.java, no MethodExit event is expected between the first and the second breakpoint hit. Why are we making this assumption? Maybe that’s related to line 59 and 60 that I don’t really understand? To my knowledge, the producer thread may yield between the two breakpoint hits and MethodExit events will be reported.

I tried to enable the MethodEntry event in the agent code and the test started to fail but this shouldn’t affect the test result I believe?

Thanks in advance
Gengchen
