hi Sangheon,

#1 test/runtime/CommandLine/OptionsValidation/TestOptionsWithRanges.java

Please change the comment to:

#2 What tests did you run? Did you run test/runtime/CommandLine/OptionsValidation on all platforms (including embedded)?

cheers

Hi all,

Please review this patch for command-line validation for GC flags. This REDO patch is adding ranges and implementing constraint functions for GC flags. Original CR of JDK-8078555 was backout as it made a test failure from 'TestOptionsWithRanges.java'. And also there were some discussion of OOM handling. Most parts are same as JDK-8078555 except below: 1. Changed 'range' for some flags. 2. Excluded 3 flags for TestOptionsWithRanges.java test. These flags make this test unstable as it tries to allocate huge amount of memory. And below are the suggestion note for JDK-8078555: 1. Exponential notation for 'double' type variable parse: Previously there were some discussion for maximum value for double type flags from code review of JDK-8059557 and JDK-8112746. And Kim and I decided not to add upper limit unless there are problems with DBLMAX. And as 255 is the maximum length that can be passed via command-line, we introduced exponential notation to avoid this limit. ( arguments.cpp ) 2. These GC flags ranges are not ideal ranges but ranges which don't make problem with current source code. If one flag makes some problem but hard to find good range, I added some ranges. 3. There are some constraint functions to avoid overflow. 4. Test applications are changed: as some of them assumed to be ParallelGC or to check it's output messages. 5. Includes cleanup of JDK-8133565: GC -2nd followup to JDK-8059557. CR: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8134995 Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sangheki/8134995/webrev.00/ http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sangheki/8134995/webrev.00to8078555 Testing: JPRT, UTE(vm.quick-pcl) and test/runtime/CommandLine/OptionsValidation/TestOptionsWithRanges.java. Thanks, Sangheon
