[aarch64-port-dev ] RFR: 8172144: AArch64: Implement "JEP 270: Reserved Stack Areas for Critical Sections"

[Chris Plummer]

I'm not sure why you would say that. I would assume that this is an 
important test for testing the Reserved Stack Area. Not running it on a 
supported platform would leaving a testing gap IMHO.

We need a better check than Platform.isAArch64() so we can distinguish between the Oracle arm64 port and the open Aarch64 port. I'm not sure what the answer is at the moment.
