Hi, Please review:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~psandoz/jdk9/JDK-8164814--atomics-weakCompareAndSet-deprecate/webrev/ <http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~psandoz/jdk9/JDK-8164814--atomics-weakCompareAndSet-deprecate/webrev/> This patch deprecates weakCompareAndSet and adds a new method weakCompareAndSetPlain. The intent is to avoid confusion over the memory effects of such methods, since other read-modify-write methods, with unqualified names, have volatile memory effects. I just modified atomic classes that have already been updated for Java 9 [*]. Paul. [*] atomic classes not updated: AtomicIntegerFieldUpdater AtomicLongFieldUpdater AtomicMarkableReference AtomicReferenceFieldUpdater AtomicStampedReference
