I see the source of my confusion.
The function `invoke_Agent_OnAttach` is called from the `JvmtiAgent::load`.
But at the time of `invoke_Agent_OnAttach` the agent has not been added to the
list yet.
It is added after the `JvmtiAgent::load` with the function
`JvmtiAgentList::add`:
jint JvmtiAgentList::load_agent(const char* agent_name, const char* absParam,
const char* options, outputStream* st) {
// The abs parameter should be "true" or "false"
const bool is_absolute_path = (absParam != nullptr) && (strcmp(absParam,
"true") == 0);
JvmtiAgent* const agent = new JvmtiAgent(agent_name, options,
is_absolute_path, /* dynamic agent */ true);
if (agent->load(st)) {
add(agent);
. . .
Now I see the code is correct.
