Status of the jdk9 regression tests on AIX

[Volker Simonis]

Hi Jonathan,

I have recently run the jdk regression tests of jdk9/dev on AIX 5.3
and 7.1. Without the known errors which also present on Linux/x86_64
and documented at
http://download.java.net/openjdk/testresults/9/testresults.html I
still get the following additional Errors/Failures:

AIX 7.1

Failed:
-------
java/net/MulticastSocket/SetGetNetworkInterfaceTest.java
java/net/MulticastSocket/SetLoopbackMode.java
java/net/MulticastSocket/Test.java

Error:

Do you get the same failures when you run the regression tests?

Could you please help to fix some of these problems? If you start
working on one of the issues, please post to the list to avoid double
efforts.

Thank you and best regards,
Volker

PS: I did run the regression tests as described at
