Hi all,

[Including build-dev also since this includes build related changes].

Requesting reviews for:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8189429 (SA: MacOSX: Replace the deprecated PT_ATTACH with PT_ATTACHEXC)

Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jgeorge/8189429/webrev.04/

This is the follow-up solution for the temporary restoration of PT_ATTACH to fix https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8184042 (several serviceability/sa tests timed out on MacOS X), which was done in Oct 2017. The mails related to this are at:

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/serviceability-dev/2017-August/021702.html

Changes as compared to the patch sent last year (http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jgeorge/8184042/webrev.00/):

The steps for the proposed solution have been provided in JBS.

Testing: ALL the SA tests pass on MacOSX and the other Mach5 platforms.

Thanks to Sharath, Robin, Gerard and Dan for looking into the changes and providing valuable comments.

Thanks, Jini.
