native method invocation fails on x86

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    • jit
    • x86, sparc
    • solaris_2.5.1, solaris_9

    Description

      Try to run Solaris User Registration (e-reg) on a x86 system running
      s297_29 or s297_29a (beta_refresh candidates.) This can be done
      by entering "solregis" or by starting hotjava and navigating
      to file:///usr/dt/appconfig/en/EReg.html. hotjava
      will crash due to a SEGV in JVM. The SEGV is in the stubs
      portion of the COM.sun.sunsoft.solregis.PropertyStore.srOpen native
      method, before control even reaches the e-reg native code.

      I tried running e-reg with JIT turned off (by
      setting JAVA_COMPILER to null) and yes, it does work around the problem --
      the native method runs correctly again. I updated the bug with this
      information..
