Problem summary
While trying to vectorize a loop that has != in the exit condition, e.g. for(int i=0;i!=N;i++) the JIT compiler generated incorrect code which may result in an incorrect number of loop iterations being executed.
Problem conclusion
The JIT compiler has been updated to skip vectorization of loops that have != in the exit condition. . This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases: 8 SR2 (8.0.2.0) .
