> Hi all,
>
> The sub-test failcount in jdk/internal/platform/docker/TestDockerMemoryMetrics.java requires swap memory enable on the test host. But the swap memory check introduced by JDK-8264524 do not work correctly, because it's missing jvm option '-XX:+AlwaysPreTouch', shows as below. This PR add jvm option '-XX:+AlwaysPreTouch' to make the swap memory check work correctly, and use jtreg.SkippedException instead of print waring when this test can not execute.
