Hi Alex, Chris and David,

The mach5 testing in 100 runs loop on all platform discovered a race in new test. It is between the native suspendTestedThreads() called on the suspender thread and the checkSuspendedStatus() calling native checkTestedThreadsSuspended().

It occurred that the iteration count and sleep time in checkSuspendedStatus() can be not enough:
  100     private boolean checkSuspendedStatus(ThreadToSuspend[] threads) 
throws RuntimeException  {
  101         boolean success = false;
  102
  103         log("Main: checking all tested threads have been suspended");
  104
  105         // wait for tested threads to reach suspended status
  106         for (int i = 0; !success && i < 20; i++) {
  107             try {
  108                 Thread.sleep(10);
  109             } catch (InterruptedException e) {
  110               throw new RuntimeException("Main: sleep was 
interrupted\n\t" + e);
  111             }
  112             success = checkTestedThreadsSuspended();
  113         }
  114         return success;
  115     }

So, I've decided to refactor/update the test a little bit:

1. Now the checkSuspendedStatus() is:
  100     private boolean checkSuspendedStatus() throws RuntimeException  {
  101         log("Main: checking all tested threads have been suspended");
  102         return checkTestedThreadsSuspended();
  103     }
2. A raw monitor agent_monitor is added to the native agent.
   It is created and locked in the Java_ThreadToSuspend_init() function called at    the beginning of the ThreadToSuspend.run() execution of the suspender thread    and unlocked at the end of Java_ThreadToSuspend_suspendTestedThreads().

   The Java_SuspendWithCurrentThread_checkTestedThreadsSuspended() grabs the agent_monitor    on the Main thread to wait until the suspendTestedThreads() completes its work.

3. Also, the results[] array is always created and used locally in the functions
   where it is needed: suspendTestedThreads() and resumeTestedThreads().

Forgot to tell about one more change:

4. The releaseTestedThreads() is renamed to releaseTestedThreadsInfo() and moved
   to the end of the Main thread run() method.

Also wanted to thank Alex for sharing good suggestions on the sync approaches.

Thanks,
Serguei


Updated webrev version:

Testing:
  One mach5 run with 100 rep counter successfully passed.
  To be more confident, I've submitted one more mach5 job which is in progress.

Thanks,
Serguei
