In jtreg test java/lang/ProcessHandle/PermissionTest.java we run on macOS a few times into this error :

probably sysctl fails here, but it is not fully clear; it would help to change the exception so that the standard text is shown too.
Also in case of ENOMEM, we can retry the failing sysctl call a few times.
