RFR 8166642: serviceability/dcmd/framework/* timeout

[Chris Plummer]

Hi Danill,

The fix looks good. Were you able to reproduce this problem, and then 
after the fix run the tests enough times to be confident this really 
resolves the issue?

Are you going to close JDK-8194057 as a dup?

thanks,

Chris

The main class for jtreg test is com.sun.javatest.regtest.agent.MainWrapper and in some cases more than one test are running in parallel and there are multiple Java processes with com.sun.javatest.regtest.agent.MainWrapper as a main class . When it happens jcmd iterates over all Java processes that match the condition (the main class equals to com.sun.javatest.regtest.agent.MainWrapper) and executes the command for each of them. That results in the jcmd invokes the given command multiple times and attaches to Java processes not related to the current test.
