Thank you, JC and Serguei, for reviewing this change.

 

Best regards,

Hi Daniil,

 

Sorry yes it looks great to me :-)

 

My only nit would be : "callbacksEnabled" is camel backed and should probably be callbacks_enabled for c++ code, but that's a nit ;-)

Hi JC,

Just wanted to check with you that you are also OK with this version of the fix.

    Hi Daniil,

    You are right, there is a hole for this.

    It can be easily fixed if the callbacks check phase at the beginning.
    But I don't think this would be simpler than your current fix.
    As I already mentioned, I'm Okay with the fix you have now.

    I'm still thinking on how to fix this on the JVMTI level.

    Thanks,
    Serguei

My concern was the case when one thread is on line 1302 (it is going to call a class loaded callback), while another thread just entered VMDeath callback. Without callbacksEnabled   flag the first thread will enter the callback and wait on the raw monitor acquired by VMDeath callback thread, after that it will continue and call JVMTI API that might throw WRONG_PHASE error if by this time the second thread  already returned from the VMDeath callback and changed the JVMTI phase.

Thus I decided to follow your original suggestion  and restore volatile modifier for callbacksEnabled.  Please review a new version of the patch.
