Local fix
Problem summary
The problem is caused by a codegen level optimization where the JIT codegen tries to simplify memory load-and-store. This optimization is not designed to work in case the loaded memory content is an unresolved Java object field. Doing so leads to JIT segmentation faults.
Problem conclusion
The JIT compiler has been updated to prevent the crash from occurring when simplifying load-and-store operations on the z/Architecture in Java8 SR5. . This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases: 8 SR5 FP20 (8.0.5.20) . Contact your IBM Product's Service Team for these Service Refreshes and Fix Packs. For those running stand-alone, information about the available Service Refreshes and Fix Packs can be found at: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/
