Comments
On a first search through all tests in test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler I found the following tests to be candidates for further investigation. It may well be that we will have to accept many of them as they are, because we do not want to risk breaking the test. Modifying some try/catch statements can lead to tests not reproducing in some cases. test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/arraycopy/TestArrayCopyWithBadOffset.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/arraycopy/TestNegativeArrayCopyAfterLoop.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c1/Test7123108.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c1/Test8271202.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c1/Test8275337.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c1/TestValueNumberingNullObject.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c2/cr6646020/Tester.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c2/cr6865031/Test.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c2/irTests/TestDebugInfo.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c2/Test5057225.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c2/Test6603011.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c2/Test6646019.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c2/Test6799693.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c2/Test6800154.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c2/Test6805724.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c2/Test6837094.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c2/Test6880034.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c2/Test7125879.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/c2/TestDuplicateSimpleLoopBackedge.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/codegen/aes/TestCipherBlockChainingEncrypt.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/codegen/Test6431242.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/codegen/Test6823354.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/escapeAnalysis/cr6716441/Tester.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/escapeAnalysis/Test6896727.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/escapeAnalysis/TestEliminateLocksOffCrash.java - ok? test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/escapeAnalysis/TestIdealAllocShape.java - ok? test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/exceptions/TestRecursiveReplacedException.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/gcbarriers/UnsafeIntrinsicsTest.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/intrinsics/object/TestClone.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/intrinsics/string/TestStringConstruction.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/jsr292/InvokerSignatureMismatch.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/jsr292/Test7082949.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/jvmci/events/JvmciShutdownEventListener.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/loopopts/LoopRotateBadNodeBudget.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/loopopts/TestCreateNewIfForPredicateCloning.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/loopopts/TestLoopPeeling.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/loopopts/TestPeelingSkeletonPredicateInitialization.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/profiling/spectrapredefineclass/Agent.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/profiling/spectrapredefineclass_classloaders/Agent.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/profiling/TestUnexpectedProfilingMismatch.java test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/rangechecks/TestRangeCheckCmpUUnderflow.java
