> Now, the PR approval is needed.
> The push was postponed because the CSR was not approved at that time (it is now):
> https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8248189
> Investigation of existing popular java agents was requested by Joe.

> The java.lang.instrument spec:
> https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/15/docs/api/java.instrument/java/lang/instrument/package-summary.html
>
> Summary:
> The java.lang.instrument spec clearly states:
> "The agent class must implement a public static premain method
> similar in principle to the main application entry point."
> Current implementation of sun/instrument/InstrumentationImpl.java
> allows the premain method be non-public which violates the spec.
> This fix aligns the implementation with the spec.
>
> Testing:
> A mach5 run of jdk_instrument tests is in progress.
