### Failure analysis ###
The failure occurs due to a cast from an unsigned to a signed integer, which results in an overflow.

### Original report ###
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The develop vm option NMethodSizeLimit can cause JVM crash if we set a big value for it, no matter the running test program.

For example, for the following test program:

```java
public class NMethodSizeLimitTest {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Success Loaded!");
    }
}
```

If we run this program on Ubuntu with OpenJDK11 using the following command:

```java
pathTo/jdk11u/build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-fastdebug/jdk/bin/java -XX:NMethodSizeLimit=21474
83647 -cp . NMethodSizeLimitTest
```

The output of the above command is:

```java
