Hi Igor,

I don't think it belongs in the problem list, for two reasons:

1) The test doesn't fail because of a bug. It fails because ZGC doesn't currently support that use case. In other words, the test shouldn't be testing something that isn't supposed to work.

2) As far as I know, the test in question is part of rt-tiers, where it's executed with the default GC (G1). So, the problem is typically only visible when doing non-CI testing with ZGC enabled.

cheers,
Per

Hi Per,

wouldn't it be better to put this test into zgc-specific problem list 
(test/hotspot/jtreg/ProblemList-zgc.txt)?

Thanks,

Please review this one-liner to disable vmTestbase/nsk/jvmti/Allocate/alloc001 
when using ZGC. The root problem is that ZGC doesn't properly respect address 
space limitations (RLIMIT_AS). This test will be re-enabled again as part of 
fixing https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8231552
