It's time to sync up jdk/test/ProblemList.txt again. As a reminder, this is the file that serves as the exclude list when running the tests via Makefile ("cd jdk/test && make jdklang" for example). For this update I've removed most of the lines that have been excluding tests from the jdkrmi and jdkmanagement batches. These tests have been there since the list was created and as far I can establish, all stem from attempts to run tests concurrently, something that isn't currently possible with RMI tests because so many of them use the RMI registry on the default port. As part of this I have added new entries to TEST.ROOT that will tell jtreg that the tests in the specified directories cannot run in othervm mode or concurrently. These will be ignored for now but Jon Gibbons has changes coming for jtreg to enforce this. One other thing about the RMI tests is that the activation tests are woefully slow with the result that the jdkrmi target takes about 30m to run. I've created 7144861 for this and any help to diagnose why these tests are so slow is very welcome. I've added two serviceability tests to the file as they have been failing intermittently. I've also added two pack200 tests that are just too slow to run on a regular basis (I had a brief chat with Kumar about this last week so he agreed this is the right thing for these tests). One final change is that I noticed that the tests in java/nio/charset/** were not being run by the jdknio target so this is fixed. The webrev with the change is here: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~alanb/7144895/webrev/ Thanks, Alan.
