David Grove commented on RVM-442:
---------------------------------

The bug manifests as a SIGSEGV (hard crash) on ppc64-linux.

It's happening in the first JNI function that's invoked from the first native method we invoke (OnLoad in GNU Classpath's jcl.c):

JNIEXPORT jint JNICALL
JNI_OnLoad (JavaVM *vm, void *reserved __attribute__((unused)))
{
  JNIEnv *env;
  void *envp;

  if ((*vm)->GetEnv (vm, &envp, JNI_VERSION_1_4) != JNI_OK)
    {
      return JNI_VERSION_1_4;
    }
  env = (JNIEnv *) envp;
#if SIZEOF_VOID_P == 8
  /** we get to here successfully */
  rawDataClass = (*env)->FindClass (env, "gnu/classpath/Pointer64");
  /** we segfault before we get to here */
  if (rawDataClass != NULL)
    rawDataClass = (*env)->NewGlobalRef (env, rawDataClass);

> Since enabling poisoned read/write barrier tests we are passing them nearly fully on IA32 but failing them all on PPC32 [1]. We appear to be deadlocking early in the VM.boot process.
