Using ++ on a volatile int looks racy. Using an AtomicInteger is strictly more reliable.


Oh that's right. Will fix that. I don't really like duplicating the code in these 2 tests and I am going to refactor it and add the shared code in the testlibrary. Will send out a revised webrev.

    The retry loop in checking the thread state assumes that the
    thread state is in RUNNABLE state which isn't always the case (it
    could be any other state).  The fix is to remove that check and
    the thread should be a daemon thread so that the test can
    terminate if any exception is thrown.

    jdk/test/java/lang/management/ThreadMXBean/ThreadStateTest.java is
    a similar test that performs additional validation on the
    ThreadMXBean API.  It should also be fixed as a daemon thread I
    take the opportunity to change it to use
    java.util.concurrent.Phaser instead of the utility class.
