Hi, can I please get a review for this trivial test fix:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~simonis/webrevs/2020/8240226/ https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8240226 The SkipBytes() subtest in DeflateIn_InflateOut.java executes several steps and for each step it deflates an array of 1024*1024 bytes. In every step, before deflation is performed, the array is refilled with random bytes. However, only after the first step, the size of the generated, deflated stream is checked and recorded. The following subtests all assume that deflating the array filled with the same number of, but different, random bytes will produce a deflated stream of the same size. This assumption is wrong. Depending on the exact contents of the source array, the size of the generated, deflated result might slightly differ. For some reason, the deflated result produced by the default zlib implementation seems to always have the same size (although there's no guarantee for this), but other zlib implementations sometimes produce differently sized, deflated results. The problem can easily be reproduced by placing a version of Cloudflare's zlib clone (https://github.com/cloudflare/zlib) on the LD_LIBRARY_PATH (for jdk versions configured with "--with-zlib=system", which is the default since jdk11): $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/ziptests/build/zlib-cloudflare ./images/jdk/bin/java DeflateIn_InflateOut java.lang.Exception: Stack trace at java.base/java.lang.Thread.dumpStack(Thread.java:1379) at DeflateIn_InflateOut.fail(DeflateIn_InflateOut.java:235) at DeflateIn_InflateOut.check(DeflateIn_InflateOut.java:238) at DeflateIn_InflateOut.SkipBytes(DeflateIn_InflateOut.java:204) at DeflateIn_InflateOut.realMain(DeflateIn_InflateOut.java:229) at DeflateIn_InflateOut.main(DeflateIn_InflateOut.java:243) Passed = 16 failed = 1 Exception in thread "main" java.lang.AssertionError: Some tests failed at DeflateIn_InflateOut.main(DeflateIn_InflateOut.java:245) The test may (and actually does) randomly fail at any of the subtests executed in SkipBytes() which reuse "numReadable", the size of the first deflated stream generated in that method. The fix is trivial. It is unnecessary to refill the source array with random bytes before each subtest. Filling the array one time at test startup time should be sufficient. Thank you and best regards, Volker
