TestInstanceKlassSize failing on linuxppc64 and linuxppc64le

XMLWordPrintable

      The test serviceability/sa/TestInstanceKlassSize.java is failing on linuxppc64 and linuxppc64le with the following symptom:
      java.lang.RuntimeException: The size computed by SA for java.lang.Object does not match.: expected true, was false

      The test retrieves the size of Java classes by 2 different APIs and expects the result to be equal:
      - SA reports the size of the reserved memory. Rounded up to a multiple of 16 on PPC64.
      - Jcmd GC.class_stats reports the size of the space needed for a number of 8 Byte blocks. (The number is from an internal statistic.)
      So there may be a difference of 8 Bytes on platforms which reserve memory 16 Byte wise.
