STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
- Install HotSpot 2.0 Server RC2, internal engineering build, in
JDK 1.3.0 rc1-T on a single or dual-processor Pentium computer running
Windows NT 4.0 (Service Pack 5).
- Copy the TestProduct directory from /net/sqesvr/vsn/GammaBase/Bugs/[bug id]
to your test computer.
- Open a MS-DOS command window and set your working directory to your local copy
of TestProduct.
- Invoke the bat file Kestrel_HSrc2engrgvClsc_run.bat to run the program.
(The bat file can be modified to run in different modes.)
RESULTS:
On a dual-processor or single-processor machine running in -Xmixed mode the
program will crash every time within the first 5-8 minutes with either a
"Dr Watson" application error message or the following HS error.
# HotSpot Virtual Machine Error, EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION
#
# unexpected exception occurred
#
# Error ID: V:\src\os\win32\vm\os_win32.cpp, 729
#
# Problematic Thread: prio=7 tid=0x7990b0 nid=0x59 runnable
#
Running in -Xcomp mode, the program crashes within the first 5 to 8 minutes
with the following HotSpot error:
# HotSpot Virtual Machine Error, EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION
#
# unexpected exception occurred
#
# Error ID: V:\src\os\win32\vm\os_win32.cpp, 729
#
# Problematic Thread: prio=5 tid=0xf7bced0 nid=0x25 runnable
#
Running with java_g in -Xcomp mode, the program crashes within the first
5 to 8 minutes with the following HotSpot error:
# HotSpot Virtual Machine Error, assertion failure
#
# assert(Universe::is_heap(obj), "sanity check")
#
# Error ID: V:\src\share\vm\runtime\handles.cpp, 28
#
# Problematic Thread: prio=5 tid=0x92db68 nid=0x45 runnable
#
In classic and -Xint mode, the test runs successfully to completion
(takes approximately one hour).
