Sure, sounds good. Webrev is updated in place at webrev.01 since the
change is just one-line.
Will proceed with integration once the mach5 tests finish.
Thanks!

Looks fine to me. Maybe you can also use "if (this instanceof Cloneable)" in
Signature$Delegate::clone.

Key changes in this revision are in the Delegate.of() method in
java.security.MessageDigest class.
Comments?
Thanks,

"md instanceof Cloneable && md is not from PKCS11" is not entirely precise.
What I mean is that for MessageDigestSpi impls from PKCS11 provider, we will need to call the
clone() to know for sure whether cloning is supported. If we decide to employ these extra logic
for saving clone() call, it's better to do it inside the MessageDigest.of(...) so the callers
don't have to repeat the same logic. Comments?

Hmm, I checked all MessageDigestSpi impls of JDK providers... The story is more
complicated than we expect.
For SUN provider which implement the digest spi, implementing Cloneable means
it supports clone functionality.
However, for SunPKCS11 provider which wraps native PKCS11 library, it always
implements Cloneable interface, but when clone() is called, it will then
perform the equivalent PKCS11 calls and throw CNSE if any PKCS11 error is
observed.
So, there is a possibility that the instanceof check and the clone() check
leads to different result in this particular scenario.
The chance of 3rd non-PKCS11 party provider whose MessageDigest/MessageDigestSpi impl implements
Cloneable but throws CNSE when clone() is called should be very low? So, I think it should be
sufficient to use "md instanceof Cloneable && md is not from PKCS11"?

As the the Delegate class takes care of the Cloneable SPI implementation, it should be
sufficient to use "md instanceof Cloneable" only. It is not a expected
behavior that a provider implements Cloneable but does not really support it.

Hopefully this is fast enough in most cases and also has the chance to recognize more
actually-cloneable ones.
I'm also OK with simply using "md instanceof Cloneable".

If you both are ok with it and prefer the instanceof check, I can sure
reverting back the changes in HmacCore and HandshakeHash classes.

I share the same concern. clone() is a heavy weight operation in constructors
that can be called alot during intensive crypto operations.
Now that you've done work on Delegate class - why not also keep the (instanceof
Cloneable) test ? That can serve as your fastpath for the default JDK
configuration AFAIK.

Can you give an example when these 2 rules have different results? Is this only
true for those implementation that directly subclass MessageDigest?
Before this fix, even the Spi impl implements Cloneable the instanceof check
will always fail because the wrapper class, i.e. MessageDigest.Delegate does
not. However, if you call the clone() (made public by the MessageDigest class),
it will succeed because Delegate.clone() checks to see if the spi object
implements the Cloneable interface, if yes, it will proceed to call the spi
clone(). So, for this scenario, the results are different, e.g. instanceof
returns false, but clone() succeeds. This is just one example. Is this what you
are asking?
No.
I understand this case, but this has already been fixed. Is there any other
example? Or are you only follow the words in the spec? i.e. try clone() to see
if it’s cloneable.
I am worried that try clone() is much heavier than just check instanof
Cloneable.
