Hi Daniel,

Your changes look good to me overall. Just some nits:

* Please do add 2018 to the copyright year.
* Since the rest of the file follows 4 spaces for indentation, please keep the indentation to 4 spaces. * Line 81: It would be great if the opening brace is at line 80, so that it would be consistent with the rest of the file.
* Line 65: The declaration could be a part of line 79.
* Line 51: Please add the 'oop address of a java.lang.Class' to the comment.

Thanks!
Jini.

The only difference between this and the last changeset is the use of "\\R" instead of whatever is the platform line.separator.

Thanks for that.

The overall changes seem reasonable but I'll defer to Jini for final approval. If Jini approves then consider this Reviewed.

Thanks,
David

Thank you,
Daniel

Hi Jini, David,

Please have a look at the revised webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dstewart/8196361/webrev.01/

In this webrev I have changed the approach to finding the addresses. This was necessary because in the case of matching for the locks the addresses are before what is matched and in the case of Method the address is after it.  The existing code only looked for the addresses after the matched string. I've also tried to align what tokens  are being looked for in the lock case. I've taken an approach of breaking the jstack output into lines and then searching each line for it containing what we want. Once found, the line is broken into pieces to find the actual address we want.

Please let me know if this is an unacceptable approach or any changes you would like to see.

I'm not clear on the overall approach as I'm unclear exactly how inspect operates or exactly what the test is trying to verify. One comment on breaking things into lines though:

    73             String newline = System.getProperty("line.separator");
    74             String[] lines = jstackOutput.split(newline);

As split() takes a regex, I suggest using \R to cover all potential line-breaks, rather than the platform specific line-seperator. We've been recently bitten by the distinction between output that comes from reading a process's stdout/stderr (and for which a newline \n is translated into the platform line-seperator), and output that comes across a socket connection (for which \n is not translated). This could result in failing to parse things correctly on Windows. It's safer/simpler to expect any kind of line-seperator.

Thanks,
David

Thanks,
Daniel

Hi Daniel, David,

Thanks, Daniel, for bringing this up. The intent of the test is to get
the oop address corresponding to a java.lang.ref.ReferenceQueue$Lock,
which can typically be obtained from the stack traces of the Common-Cleaner or the Finalizer threads. The stack traces which I had been noticing were typically of the form:


"Common-Cleaner" #8 daemon prio=8 tid=0x00007f09c82ac000 nid=0xf6e in
Object.wait() [0x00007f09a18d2000]
      java.lang.Thread.State: TIMED_WAITING (on object monitor)
      JavaThread state: _thread_blocked
    - java.lang.Object.wait(long) @bci=0, pc=0x00007f09b7d6480b,
Method*=0x00007f09acc43d60 (Interpreted frame)
           - waiting on <0x000000072e61f6e0> (a
java.lang.ref.ReferenceQueue$Lock)
    - java.lang.ref.ReferenceQueue.remove(long) @bci=59, line=151, pc=0x00007f09b7d55243, Method*=0x00007f09acdab9b0 (Interpreted frame)
           - waiting to re-lock in wait() <0x000000072e61f6e0> (a
java.lang.ref.ReferenceQueue$Lock)
...

I chose 'waiting to re-lock in wait' since that was what I had been observing next to the oop address of java.lang.ref.ReferenceQueue$Lock.
But I see how with a timing difference, one could get 'waiting to lock'
as in your case. So, a good way to fix might be to check for the line containing '(a java.lang.ref.ReferenceQueue$Lock)', getting the oop address from that line (should be the address appearing immediately before '(a java.lang.ref.ReferenceQueue$Lock)') and passing that to the 'inspect' command.

Thanks much,
Jini.

Please review this webrev [1] which attempts to fix a test error in
serviceability/sa/ClhsdbInspect.java when it is run under an AArch64
system (not necessarily exclusive to this system, but it was the
system under test). The bug report [2] provides further details.
Essentially the line "waiting to re-lock in wait" never actually
occurs. Instead I have the line "waiting to lock" which occurs for
the referenced item of /java/lang/ref/ReferenceQueue$Lock.
Unfortunately the test is written such that only the first "waiting to lock"
occurrence is seen (for java/lang/Class), which is already accounted
for in the test.

I can't tell exactly what the test expects, or why, but it would be
extremely hard to arrange for "waiting to re-lock in wait" to be seen
for the ReferenceQueue lock! That requires acquiring the lock
yourself, issuing a notify() to unblock the wait(), and then issuing
the jstack command while still holding the lock!

I'm not overly happy with this approach as it actually removes a
test line. However, the test line does not actually appear in the
output (at least on my system) and the test is not currently written
to look for the second occurrence of the line "waiting to lock".
Perhaps the original author could chime in and provide further
guidance as to the intention of the test.

I am happy to modify the patch as necessary.

Regards,
Daniel Stewart
