Joe,

This is making it hard to clean up everything at once. I'm already
delayed from pushing the fix because the "@key intermittent" change is
not in hs-rt yet.

If the test needs to be updated as part of the fix for JDK-8029453,
presumably it should be a trivial merge with the "intermittent" change
if it doesn't arrive at the same time. If the intermittent-ness give a
false positive for a while, I think that is acceptable given how changes
flow around. (The reversal of just the intermittent tag could also be
done in dev directly after any HotSpot changes for JDK-8029453 get
integrated into dev.)

The intended change is to remove the intermittent tag as it should no longer be an intermittent failure. But of course I can't remove the tag until the change that adds it turns up in my repo.

If this change also goes in then I again have to wait for it to arrive
before I can reverse it. It will take a month for everything to get
back to where it should be. :(

If the HotSpot repos don't pull down this change promptly, I think it is
fine if the problem list is updated after the HotSpot fix gets into dev.

My main concern here is not have have the test intermittently failing in
the testing of dev for several more weeks.

Ok. I'm pushing the fix now so that it will hit dev in two weeks time. I've filed:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8133611

to remove it from the problem list and remove the intermittent tag once it hits dev - and I'll push that directly to dev as you suggest.

Thanks,
David

This also seems to defeat the purpose of adding the "intermittent" tag.

Hello,

Until a fix for JDK-8029453 is in place, the test TimeoutLockLoops.java
should be placed on the problem list for Linux since it fails
intermittently, but fairly frequently, on that OS:
