The issue is not just _thread_in_native - that was why the call to JavaThread::name() were crashing. The basic issue is that we must not access the fields of a Java object when we are in a safepoint-safe state (_thread_in_native, _thread_blocked) as the oop could be relocated whilst we are accessing the field. Essentially we must always be _thread_in_vm when we call JavaThread::is_interrupted. This is a problem for JVM TI RawMonitorWait because it deliberately transitions directly from _thread_in_native to _thread_blocked because these are equivalent safepoint-safe states, and because we can't block for a safepoint because we may deadlock with the VMThread if we own the raw monitor. It is also a problem for ObjectMonitor::wait as we do one call to is_interrupted whilst _thread_blocked. Similarly for Parker::park.

Fix: - For ObjectMonitor::wait we move the calls to is_interrupted so they occur whilst still _thread_in_vm - For Parker::park we remove the call to is_interrupted that occurred immediately before parking (as the event will be signalled if an interrupt has occurred since the interrupt state was checked earlier). This affects POSIX and Solaris platforms only. - For JVM TI RawMonitorWait we use proper thread-state transitions to go from native -> in_vm -> blocked, but we push that and the interrupt checks down to the lowest-level code so that we can perform the transitions after the raw monitor has been unlocked (thus avoiding the deadlock potential with the VMThread).

Synopsis updated to reflect actual problem.

Thanks Dan. No need for additional logs etc. Problem is well understood. Solution in the pipeline.

I just realized what the problem is in both cases. I'm attempting to access a field of a Java object while the thread is _thread_in_native which means I'm racing with the GC moving the oop.

I've established that there is a problem with the oop of the JVMTI Agent Thread. Even before any of the thread interrupt changes are applied, if I simply try to print the name of the JavaThread when it calls RawMonitorWait then I crash: # Internal Error (open/src/hotspot/share/classfile/javaClasses.inline.hpp:64), pid=11161, tid=11184 # assert(is_instance(java_string)) failed: must be java_string --------------- T H R E A D --------------- Current thread (0x00007f7b90404800): --------------- T H R E A D --------------- Current thread (0x00007f7b90404800): [error occurred during error reporting (printing current thread), id 0xe0000000, Internal Error (open/src/hotspot/share/classfile/javaClasses.inline.hpp:64)] Stack: [0x00007f7b40cf4000,0x00007f7b40df5000], sp=0x00007f7b40df3b90, free space=1022k Native frames: (J=compiled Java code, A=aot compiled Java code, j=interpreted, Vv=VM code, C=native code) V [libjvm.so+0xdd0d1a] java_lang_String::value(oop)+0x1aa V [libjvm.so+0xe05b5e] java_lang_String::as_utf8_string(oop)+0x3e V [libjvm.so+0x16dccbc] JavaThread::get_thread_name_string(char*, int) const+0x1dc V [libjvm.so+0x10f5d08] JvmtiEnv::RawMonitorWait(JvmtiRawMonitor*, long)+0x58 C [libap12t001.so+0x9a9d] rawMonitorWait+0xd C [libap12t001.so+0x9c01] nsk_jvmti_waitForSync+0x71 C [libap12t001.so+0x9d8f] agentProc+0x11f C [libap12t001.so+0x9a37] agentThreadWrapper+0x57 V [libjvm.so+0x11203c3] JvmtiAgentThread::call_start_function()+0x133 V [libjvm.so+0x16e5046] JavaThread::thread_main_inner()+0x226 V [libjvm.so+0x16ea836] Thread::call_run()+0xf6 V [libjvm.so+0x140d1fe] thread_native_entry(Thread*)+0x10e

I've booby-trapped JavaThread::interrupt and JVM_InterruptThread and java_lang_Thread::set_interrupted and none of these are getting called! Trying to investigate further at the RawMonitor::wait I'm seeing unexpected NULL values whilst trying to debug things. Something strange is happening with the JVMTI Agent Thread.
05-11-2019

The agent thread used by the test is being interrupted whilst doing a RawMonitor::wait. This is unexpected. Trying to determine what may be issuing the interrupt - it doesn't seem to be part of the test.

Not Windows only. I have reproduced once on Linux. I have a suspicion it relates to timeouts and possible attempts to abort things if the timeout happens.
05-11-2019

Seems to be Windows only which likely means it relates to the interrupt event - though that is only used by Process.waitFor.
