In line with the intended location for other VM annotations, see 8138732 [1], @sun.misc.Contended should be moved to the jdk.internal.vm.annotation package.
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~chegar/8140687/00/ Changes look good to me. But what's the compatibility story for JSR 166? With this move, we would be unable to bootclasspath JSR 166 JAR, since it references the "old" sun.misc.Contended?
Correct.
As you are aware, the 166 CVS will fork shortly to support a JDK 9 only version. Artifacts built from the fork are of course not impacted by this change.
For existing 166 artifacts, they will not run on JDK 9 as the Contended annotation will not be present.

Thanks, -Aleksey
