JDK 21
21 b25Fixed

JDK-8303040 has introduced the new TestHFA. It requires an adaptation for JDK-8308276.

We currently get:
TestHFA.java:53: error: cannot find symbol
    static final OfFloat FLOAT = JAVA_FLOAT.withBitAlignment(32);

The fix for this bug is integrated in jdk-21+24-2096.

Tier1 build failure in a new test means this is a P2 and not a P4. Normally we don't change priorities after a fix has been integrated, but this is a special case since it broke Mach5 in Tier1.

The fix for the following bug: JDK-8308276 Change layout API to work with bytes, not bits was integrated in jdk-21+24-2051 at 2023-05-22 14:57:00 +0000 The fix for the following bug: JDK-8303040 linux PPC64le: Implementation of Foreign Function & Memory API (Preview) was integrated in jdk-21+24-2090 at 2023-05-24 08:38:34 +0000. I'm guessing that the PR for JDK-8303040 was not re-based since 2023-05-22 14:57:00 +0000 and that GHA testing did not show all these Tier1 failures that we see with java/foreign/TestHFA.java.
