What are the valid values ofvm.gc? It's a bit awk for null as a
valid value and I would imagine "*" wildcard may be a better value?
vm.gc variable is set by jtreg based on passed -XX:+Use???GC command
line vm flag.
If such flag is not given vm.gc will be set to null (or "null" which
is same).
So, vm.gc could be set to any value. In reality the following strings
are expected: null, "Parallel", "Serial", "G1", "ConcMarkSweep".
null means "not set", it doesn't mean "any".
If a test is applicable for all GC - you don't need @requires vm.gc == "*"
Note that the vm.gc abstraction is not really flexible enough for our
purposes. The way to specify a GC is constantly evolving and it is not
suitable to have this logic in the JTreg harness. I've filed this bug
about the issue:

Since you are touching test/java/lang/management/** tests, we can
remove these shell tests and add multiple @run in the java test
instead. It'd be great if you can take this opportunity to remove
these shell tests as they are not really necessary.
Yes, agree, shell is not necessary here. But such refactoring is
better to be done as part of another RFE.
Thanks,
Dima
