      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      We found that in the development version of Hotspot in JDK11, there exists an option that will crash the JVM as long as it is specified.

      For example, for any test program like:

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

      If we run this program on Ubuntu with OpenJDK8 or OpenJDK11 using the following command:

      ```java
      pathTo/jdk11u/build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-fastdebug/jdk/bin/java -XX:+VerifyAliases -cp . Test
      ```

      The output of the above command is:

      ```java
      # To suppress the following error report, specify this argument
      # after -XX: or in .hotspotrc: SuppressErrorAt=/memnode.cpp:4792
      #
      # A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:

      Ubuntu Version:

      ```java
      NAME="Ubuntu"
      VERSION="18.04.5 LTS (Bionic Beaver)"
      ID=ubuntu
      ID_LIKE=debian
      PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS"
      VERSION_ID="18.04"
      HOME_URL="https://www.ubuntu.com/"
      SUPPORT_URL="https://help.ubuntu.com/"

      VERSION_CODENAME=bionic
      UBUNTU_CODENAME=bionic
      ```

      Also, this will cause the JVM to crash on OpenJDK8.
