Lots of tests fail on x86_32 tier1. Notably, this bunch:
$ CONF=linux-x86-server-fastdebug make run-test TEST=com/sun/crypto/provider/Cipher/ TEST_VM_OPTS="-XX:+UseParallelGC -XX:-TieredCompilation"
...
Test results: passed: 78; error: 11
This passes:
$ CONF=linux-x86-server-fastdebug make run-test TEST=com/sun/crypto/provider/Cipher/ TEST_VM_OPTS="-XX:+UseParallelGC -XX:-TieredCompilation -XX:-UseSHA512Intrinsics"
...
Test results: passed: 89
hs_err is foobared as well, with no stack trace information:

It does not happen in 8u. It does happen in 11u. I heavily suspect JDK-8165381 is the root cause.
