I should also add that this issue was only turning up when I had virtual threads enabled, because that caused one of the threads to trigger a class load of some CarrierThread inner class the first time it parked. This generated a ClassPrepare event with unfortunately timing (it would be on Thread 2 of my description in [JDK-8332738](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8332738)). However, I now have a much more direct test that doesn't require virtual threads and more readily reproduces the deadlock. ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/19044#discussion_r1610413014
