APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Error Message: N/A
.
Stack Trace: N/A
.
The values of floating point parameters may not be passed
correctly to native code across JNI calls.  This problem is seen
on 31-bit z/OS JVMs with Java invoking non-XPLINK native code.

Local fix

  • This issue can be worked around using the
-Xjit:disableDirectToJNI option.  Note however that this option
will cause additional performance overhead across JNI calls.

Problem summary

  • The problem is caused by the JIT compiler failing to store
floating point parameters into the argument list on the native
stack.

Problem conclusion

  • This defect will be fixed in:
6.0.1 SR7
7.0.0 SR6
.
The JIT compiler has been updated to correctly pass the floating
point parameters.

Temporary fix
