"1.8.0_351".

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
## Steps to Reprodcue
The following steps shows how to reproduce the bug on Java 19.0.2 in a
Ubuntu Linux environment.

# Compile
$ javac C.java

# Default or compilation up to level 4
$ java C
# Output (incorrect)
99997

# Compilation up to level 1
$ java -XX:TieredStopAtLevel=1 C
# Output (correct)
100000

# Interpreter or compilation up to level 0
$ java -Xint C
# Output (correct)
100000


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
# Output (correct)
100000

ACTUAL -
# Output (incorrect)
99997


---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
## Source code for an executable test case
# C.java
public class C {
    static byte[] m(byte[] arg1) {
        byte[] b = new byte[-1];
        System.arraycopy(arg1, 0, b, 0, arg1.length);
        return b;
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int count = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < 100_000; ++i) {
            try {
                System.out.println(m(null));
            } catch (Throwable e) {
                if (e instanceof java.lang.NegativeArraySizeException) {
                    count++;
                }
            }
        }
        System.out.println(count); // Should be 100_000
    }
}

---------- END SOURCE ----------

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
## Workaround
Interpreter or compilation for Level 0, 1, 2, 3 are fine.
$ java -XX:TieredStopAtLevel=3 C


FREQUENCY : always
