ZGC: TestAllocateHeapAt.java should not run with UseLargePages

XMLWordPrintable

    • gc
    • b17

        TestAllocateHeapAt.java expects that creating the heap file works in the current director (`.`). But when using persistent hugepages (-XX:+UseLargePages) this would require the filesystem to be a HugeTLBFS.

        I propose that we do not allow running these tests with persistent hugepages.

        The following two tests fail in the JDK24 CI:

        gc/z/TestAllocateHeapAt.java
        gc/x/TestAllocateHeapAt.java

        This is seen with hugepages testing. We see warnings in the output then the VM fails to start:
