Hi Staffan,
Not directly related to the change but what does _ALLBSD_SOURCE signify?
In os_bsd.cpp:
In os::thread_cpu_time the type of mach_thread has changed from
mach_port_t to thread_t, but mach_thread is still passed into
thread_info(). I expect they are both simple integral types, but I would
expect that later gcc compilers might complain about this. What type
does thread_info expect?
Otherwise seems ok.

Please review the following change:

This changes the value returned by OSThread::thread_id() and
os::current_thread_id() on macosx to return the mach thread_t instead of
pthread_t. There is a separate method OSThread:pthread_id() that returns
the pthread_t.
The reason for this change is both that JFR would like a 4 byte value
for thread id, and that SA requires access to the thread_t.
Thanks,
