APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Error Message: A crash in JIT library.
    .
    Stack Trace: N/A
    .
    This problem only occurs on X86 systems.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • The JIT compiler may optimize calls to Unsafe.copyMemory. In
    some cases the JIT compiler may not pass the parameters to the
    method in the correct order which results in the incorrect
    values being used for the memory copying, causing a crash.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The JIT compiler has been updated to parse the arguments in the
    correct order.
