Tests spawns a JVM using -XX:+UseSerialGC. If the test is run with any other GC, it fails.
Comments
This bug does not affect either 8u or 11u, because the old test is actually TestVMInfoEvent.sh that ignores the external GC setting. It was rewritten with JDK-8209813. Checked the bug does not reproduce on current 11u with:
$ CONF=linux-x86_64-normal-server-fastdebug make images run-test TEST=jdk/jfr/event/runtime/TestVMInfoEvent.sh TEST_VM_OPTS="-XX:+UseParallelGC"
