@sspitsyn  Thanks for the update.   I think it's good to add the unnamed module 
check before calling `setAccessible` that becomes clear that this check only 
intends for unnamed module.   Maybe make it clear in the comment something like 
this: 

    // if the java agent class is in an unnamed module, the java agent class 
can be non-public.
    // suppress access check upon the invocation of the premain/agentmain method

Since the agent class can be non-public, it means that it's not necessary to 
modify the test agent class to public as you did in this patch.

I don't think `@library /test` is needed, isn't it?  The test library classes 
are under test/lib.

src/java.instrument/share/classes/sun/instrument/InstrumentationImpl.java line 
475:

An alternative way: `if (Modifier.isPublic(m.getModifiers()))`

Similar can be applied for checking if the javaagentClass is public.
