[JDK-8313814] Test serviceability/sa/ClhsdbSymbol.java timed out after passing

[Chris Plummer]

Hi Tham,

Thank you for your interest in contributing to the OpenJDK project. We 
are more than happy to have you work on some bugs and can help you 
understand the process. https://openjdk.org/guide/ has a lot of useful 
information for new OpenJDK developers.

As for you interest JDK-8313814, this probably is not a good bug for you 
to start with. It has only ever reproduced once, and you are unlikely to 
get it to reproduce again. Also, it is not very important to fix since 
the issue is with the test (or test infrastructure) and not with 
Serviceability Agent itself.

There are plenty of other bugs that would be good starter bug candidates 
for you. Are you mostly interested in Serviceability Agent, or are there 
other areas of interest that you have?

thanks,

Chris
