Hi,
After some offline discussions I'm withdrawing this patch. I will
instead investigate if I can achieve similar behavior using log rotation
as the default.
Thanks,
Marcus

Hi again,
Taking a different approach to this.
New webrev:

Existing files will now by default be renamed/archived with a .X
suffix where X is the lowest number such that the resulting file name
is available (jvm.log becomes jvm.log.0). A mode option for
controlling this behavior has been added as well. It can be set to
archive, append, or truncate (i.e. -Xlog::jvm.log::mode=truncate).
Tested with included jtreg test through JPRT.
Thanks,
Marcus

Hi,
Please review the following patch to make sure UL truncates existing
log files before writing to them. Since files are opened in append
mode, truncation isn't done automatically, so instead the patch adds
an attempt to remove the log file before opening it.
