RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
We do runs of SPECjvm2008 benchmark to get performance results of linux kernel. But when we running this benchmark on https://beaker.engineering.redhat.com/view/amd-seattle-05.lab.eng.rdu.redhat.com
test always crashed with message ERROR: compiler exit code: 4.
This machine is aarch64 machine and I tried it on another one aarch64 machine apm-mustang-ev3-13.lab.eng.rdu.redhat.com but I get the same result.

I tried 2 version of openjdk 1.7.0 and 1.8.0 on both it crashes.

How to reproduce:
1. Download benchmark from https://www.spec.org/jvm2008/
2. See if you get value operations per minute for every operation in test (compiler, startup etc)

Thanks

Alternately you can install the benchmark from Beaker repo:

yum -y install performance-performance-SPECjvm2008-test-certification.noarch

I will attach the rpm file to this BZ as well.

After the installation do the following:

cd /mnt/tests/performance/SPECjvm2008-test/certification/

Run benchmark with on ARM server
./runtest.sh

After roughly 15 minutes go to 

cd SPECjvm2008/results

and run 
find ./ -name "*error*"

If you see file like this one
compiler.compiler.bt2.i1.op1.error.log

with 

ERROR: compiler exit code: 4

then you have reproduced the issue. We believe it's a bug in java. 

Please feel free to ping either kkolakow or jhladky if you need to get access to ARM server or you require help to reproduce the problem. 

Thanks
