Hi,

 

Please review the following backport to JDK-8u from JDK-9 at your convenience:

 

JDK-9 review thread : http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/2d-dev/2016-September/007601.html 

 

Bug : https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8162461 

 

JDK-8u Webrev : http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jdv/8162461.8u/webrev.00/ 

 

Issue : If we try to perform operations like reader.abort()/reader.dispose()/ reader.reset() in any of the IIOReadUpdateListener callbacks, JVM will throw deadlock error.

 

Root cause : We are making callbacks from native side to Java by holding some resources in JNI critical lock.

 

Solution : We have to release the JNI critical lock on the resources before we call Java function from native side. If we have JNI critical lock and we throw an Exception in that case also we should release the lock.

 

I have verified jtreg, JCK and JPRT in JDK8u-dev also.

 

Thanks,

Jay
