** Description changed: The issue was detected when building openjdk-17[1]. - The bug occurs due to the introduction of a new guard mechanism[2] ALLOCATE_GUARD_MADV_GUARD. + The bug occurs due to the introduction of a new guard mechanism[2] ALLOCATE_GUARD_MADV_GUARD. This is a default value for the stack protection guard (0) and it is unchanged when the thread is created with 0 size guard area[3]. The stack block is added to the list of the stacks in use[4]. The first thread runs its course and exits. When the subsequent thread is created with non-zero guard area, the existing stack can be reused[5]. - It has ALLOCATE_GUARD_MADV_GUARD stack protection flag set, but the kernel does not support it. adjust_stack_prot function will try to adjust the guard area[6], but the call will fail with EINVAL. + It has ALLOCATE_GUARD_MADV_GUARD stack protection flag set, but the kernel does not support it. adjust_stack_prot function will try to adjust the guard area[6], but the call will fail with EINVAL. + + The client application will fail to create the thread.
