JDK-8141211 - Convert TraceExceptions to Unified Logging
Description
Because "TraceExceptions" is no longer a VM runtime option defined in globals.hpp (part of RUNTIME_FLAGS macro), CheckOrigin.java fails with "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: VM option "TraceExceptions" does not exist" because HotSpotDiagnosticMXBean.getVMOption(option) can no longer find the option. This issue is most likely due to https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8141211
Comments
The fix for: JDK-8141211 Convert TraceExceptions to Unified Logging has already been pushed from JDK9-hs-rt -> JDK-hs. I'm marking this bug as an 'integration_blocker' for now. We have to decide if JDK9-hs needs to wait for this fix before being pushed to JDK9-dev. Adding a RULE to make DKFL find this bug: RULE "com/sun/management/HotSpotDiagnosticMXBean/CheckOrigin.java" Exception java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: VM option "TraceExceptions" does not exist

One workaround is to change the test from: private static void checkOrigin(String option, Origin origin) throws Exception { Origin o = mbean.getVMOption(option).getOrigin(); if (!o.equals(origin)) { throw new Exception("Option '" + option + "' should have origin '" + origin + "' but had '" + o + "'"); } System.out.println("Option '" + option + "' verified origin = '" + origin + "'"); } to: private static void checkOrigin(String option, Origin origin) throws Exception { if (!option.equals("TraceExceptions")) { Origin o = mbean.getVMOption(option).getOrigin(); if (!o.equals(origin)) { throw new Exception("Option '" + option + "' should have origin '" + origin + "' but had '" + o + "'"); } System.out.println("Option '" + option + "' verified origin = '" + origin + "'"); } }
