Hello Roger, > On Mac OS X on aarch64, the timing of the sysctl vs the process life (pid) > can be such that the sysctl returns EIO. The `ProcessHandleImpl_unix.c` in its `info0` implementation calls `os_getParentPidAndTimings` and this `os_getCmdlineAndUserInfo`. The `os_getParentPidAndTimings` in `ProcessHandleImpl_macosx.c` too has a call to `systctl` with the passed `pid` (line 191). If that call fails, we currently don't check the `errno` and just throw a `RuntimeException`. Would that need a change too, since it queries for a particular process? There's one another call to sysctl in `os_getCmdlineAndUserInfo` at line 253, but that doesn't appear to be specific to the pid, so I guess that wouldn't fail due to the timing of process lifetime. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/9946
