Just small suggestion. Any reasons why didn't add the test? src/hotspot/share/prims/jvmtiThreadState.cpp line 584: > 582: JvmtiExport::post_vthread_unmount(vthread); > 583: } > 584: VTMS_unmount_begin(vthread, /* last_unmount */ false); I think it would be better just to add thread->rebind_to_jvmti_thread_state_of(thread->threadObj()); after this call instead of adding a parameter to VTMS_unmount_begin.
