In afbd4ff, I made a low-risk, but very specific fix for a more
general problem: "bootstrap" classes (i.e. classes which the VM has
built-in knowledge of) need to be loaded from the classpath before any
of their methods are called. Based on recent testing, I found there were
more cases than I previously thought where the VM tries to call methods on
"unloaded" bootstrap classes, so we needed a more general solution to
the problem.
This commit addresses it by closing the last (known) loophole by which
methods might be called on bootstrap classes: invokeinterface, and its
helper method findInterfaceMethod. The fix is to check for bootstrap
classes in findInterfaceMethod and load the full versions if
necessary. This process may lead to garbage collection and/or thrown
exceptions, which made me nervous about cases of direct or indirect
calls to findInterfaceMethod not expecting those events, which is why
I hadn't used that approach earlier. However, it turns out there were
only a few places that made non-GC-safe calls to findInterfaceMethod,
and a bit of code rearrangement fixed that.
So there I was, planning to just fix one little bug: Thread.holdsLock
and Thread.yield were missing for the Android class library. Easy
enough, right? So, I added a test, got it passing, and figured I'd go
ahead and run ci.sh with all three class libraries. Big mistake.
Here's the stuff I found:
* minor inconsistency in README.md about OpenSSL version
* untested, broken Class.getEnclosingMethod (reported by Josh)
* JNI test failed for tails=true Android build
* Runtime.nativeExit missing for Android build
* obsolete assertion in CallEvent broke tails=true Android build
* obsolete superclass field offset padding broke bootimage=true Android build
* runtime annotation parsing broke bootimage=true Android build
(because we couldn't modify Addendum.annotationTable for classes in
the heap image)
* ci.sh tried building with both android=... and openjdk=..., which
the makefile rightfully balked at
Sorry this is all in a single commit; I didn't expect so many
unrelated issues, and I'm too lazy to break them apart.
