Hi Per,
I think there may have been some discussion about this before. Are
there plans to eventually get SA heap walking support for ZGC, and is
the list of disabled tests being maintained somewhere?
The latest directive I've received is that we should not spend any
more time or resources on adding ZGC support to the SA.
I personally agree with that. I think the benefits provided by the SA
is dwarfed by the cost to maintain it, so we should phase it out.
You should be able to find the excluded tests by grepping for 'vm.gc
!= "Z"' among the SA tests.
cheers,

Ok. I'm fine with that. Just wanted to make sure we have a plan, even if
that plan is to never support it.
thanks,
Chris
thanks,
Chris

There's no support for SA heap walking when using ZGC. Hence the
tests for this should not execute when ZGC is enabled.
