David,

I'll wait to see what Kumar thinks about this. I don't like exposing
a new JVM function this way.

I tried to call Thread#setName() after initializing VM (before calling
main method),
I could set native thread name.
However, DestroyJavaVM() calls AttachCurrentThread(). So we can't set
native thread name for DestroyJavaVM.

Right - I came to the same realization earlier this morning. Which, unfortunately, takes me back to the basic premise here that we don't set the name of threads not created by the JVM. The fact that the "main" thread is not tagged as being a JNI-attached thread seems accidental to me - so JVM_SetNativeThreadName is only working by accident for the initial attach, and can't be used for the DestroyJavaVM part - which leaves the thread inconsistently named at the native level.

I'm afraid my view here is that the launcher has to be treated like any other process that might host a JVM. If it wants to name its native threads then it is free to do so, but I would not be exporting a function from the JVM to do that - it would have to use the OS specific API's for that on a platform-by-platform basis.

Sorry.

Hi,

jvm.h:  The function names are too similar but perform different

-  The first function applies to the current thread, the second one a
specific java thread.

the new function does.

I will update webrev after hearing Kumar's comment.

Hi David,

Thanks for your comment.

I exported new JVM function to set native thread name, and JLI
uses it
in new webrev.

First the launcher belongs to another team so core-libs will need to
review and approve this (in particular Kumar) - now cc'd.

Thanks!
I'm waiting to review :-)


Personally I would have used a Java upcall to Thread.setName rather
than exporting JVM_SetNativeThreadName. No hotspot changes needed in
that case.

As I wrote [1] in JBS, I changed to use Thread#setName() in
Thread#init(),
but I could not change native thread name.

At Thread.init time the thread is not alive, which is why the native
name is not set.

I guess that caller of main() is JNI attached thread.

That is an interesting question which I haven't had time to check -
sorry. If the main thread is considered a JNI-attached thread then
my suggestion wont work. If it isn't then my suggestion should work
(but it means we have an inconsistency in our treatment of
JNI-attached threads :( )

Thus I think that we have to provide a function to set native
thread name.

Hi Yasumasa,

Please see my updates to the bug (sorry have been on vacation).
This
needs to be done in the launcher to be correct as we do not set the
name of threads that attach via JNI, which includes the "main"
thread.

I do not think so.
Native main thread might not be a Java launcher - e.g. Apache
commons-daemon, JNI application, etc.

If you want to change native main thread name, I think
that we
have to
change Java launcher code.
Should I include it in new webrev?


No
