This is a request for review for 7144833: sun/tools/jcmd/jcmd-Defaults.sh failing intermittently

Bug: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7144833

The problem occurs when one or several lines printed by the jcmd tool match several rules in the awk script checking the output. The counter counting the number of lines matching the expected pattern is incremented each time the line matches a rule. If the line matches several rules, the counter is incremented several times. When this occurs, the test at the end of the script checking that the number of lines matching the pattern is equal to the number of lines of the output fails.

The proposed fix is a modification of the awk script. Each rule checking a pattern now sets a variable to 1 when a match is found, and the variable is added to the counter only once per line.

Here's the Webrev:

The webrev also contains the removal of the sun/tools/jps/jps-Vvml.sh test from the problem list. The test has been fixed (see CR 6986875) but the test was still in the exclusion list.

Thanks,

Fred
