JDK 9
9 b116Fixed
Description
JDK-8056152 added a new constructor to java.lang.Thread to constructing Threads that do not
inherit inheritable thread-local initial values. All usages of sun.misc.ManagedLocalsThread in
the base module were also replaced with this new constructor. Given there is now a supported API
for creating such threads, other areas of the JDK should be updated to use it, where applicable. If all
usages are replaced, then sun.misc.ManagedLocalsThread can be removed.

/jdk/src/jdk.crypto.pkcs11$ find . -name "*.java" -exec grep ManagedLocalsThread {} \; -print 
import sun.misc.ManagedLocalsThread;
        Thread t = new ManagedLocalsThread(poller, "Poller " + getName());
./share/classes/sun/security/pkcs11/SunPKCS11.java

Comments
Switch to the new 6-arg Thread constructor.
