Hello,
Earlier there was a discussion on this mail alias about the spin loop
hint proposal [1]. Based on the feedback from that discussion some
changes were incorporated and the JEP has been filed [2]. There seems to
be a consensus on the API side. The JEP is now in a draft state and I
hope this JEP will get targeted for java 9 shortly.
Please review the upcoming API changes:

For the reference, the new generated JavaDoc for j.l.Runtime class and
the new method

Thanks,
