Error description

  • Error Message: An unexpected java.lang.NoSuchMethodException is
    thrown by the JVM while running java.lang.MethodHandle code
    .
    Stack Trace: N/A
    .
    

Local fix

  • Running with
    -Xjit:disableInvariantArgumentPreexistence,disableInnerPreexiste
    nce should cause the problem to stop occurring; this option may
    impact performance of some workloads.
    

Problem summary

  • The problem was caused by an optimization incorrectly storing
    data used during the execution of some methods of the
    java.lang.MethodHandle class
    

Problem conclusion

  • The JIT compiler was modified such that the problematic
    optimization now correctly stores data related to the
    java.lang.MethodHandle class
    .
    This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases:
       8    SR2       (8.0.2.0)
