Starting this bug as a P2 since this is a Tier1 failure.

[~lmesnik] Would you have cycles to look at this test to see if it should be removed or re-implemented? It seems to have been created for JDK-8004741 where it appears that an async exception exposed an issue with exception handling. I'm not immediately clear if this test should be deleted or changed to use JVMTI SuspendThread. The test is currently excluded as David points out.

This test should be removed as part of JDK-8289610 and the ProblemList updated.

I'm seeing this error intermittently show up in our internal test builds.

> I think it's time to ProblemList this failure. agree, I've created a subtask (JDK-8238930) to problem list the test in jdk/jdk, will send RFR shortly

[~iignatyev] - There are more than 20 sightings of this failure mode in the JDK14 and JDK15 CIs. If you don't have a fix in mind for this issue, I think it's time to ProblemList this failure.

the test failed 5 times out of 100. however in 100 runs w/ XX:+PrintCompilation, the test never failed, which makes it quite hard to understand that it's going on here.

Igor, could you please have a look?
12-12-2019
ILW = Test fails because method does not get compiled (probably test bug), intermittent with single test at tier1, no workaround = MHH = P2
12-12-2019
Test was last modified by JDK-8214904 which also added the now failing check.
