Hi Chris,

Hotspot comment change looks okay.:)

I see a lot of hotspot tests that include

@modules java.base/sun.misc

but I don't understand why it is present in the few cases I looked at eg:

hotspot/test/gc/g1/TestShrinkAuxiliaryData15.java

so not sure when it needs to be converted to jdk.internal.misc

Thanks,
David
