Description
test/lib/testlibrary/jdk/testlibrary/ProcessTools.java uses sun.management.VMManagement to implement getProcessId method. 

JDK-8046092 will define a supported API to get PID.

Comments
But compilation (of e.g. test/lib/testlibrary/jdk/testlibrary/Utils.java depending on test/lib/testlibrary/jdk/testlibrary/ProcessTools.java) still fails unless we explicitly allow each test sun.management. One more line should be removed, 49: import sun.management.VMManagement;
