The process crashes with the following stack trace:

The crash happens in this part of the code when the  adr_type returned by make_ptr is accessed. The  adr_type returned by make_ptr is NULL and that causes the crash.

     case Op_CompareAndSwapN:
2485     {
2486       const Type *adr_type = phase->type(n->in(MemNode::Address));
2487       adr_type = adr_type->make_ptr();
2488       if (adr_type->isa_oopptr()) {
2489         add_node(n, PointsToNode::UnknownType,
PointsToNode::UnknownEscape, false);
2490       } else {
2491         _processed.set(n->_idx);
2492         return;
2493       }
2494       break; 



Comments
Not reproducible. The fix is based on analysis of core file. Difficult to create regression test.
