Profiled program crashes when profiling virtual thread using jdk21

[andrebreves]

Describe the bug

Whenever I try to Profile the CPU for a program with virtual threads it fails with the following error:

Profiler Agent Error: GetCurrentThreadCpuTime failed with 73
Assertion failed: (res == JVMTI_ERROR_NONE), function Java_org_graalvm_visualvm_lib_jfluid_server_system_Timers_getThreadCPUTimeInNanos, file ../src-jdk15/Timers.c, line 108.
Abort trap: 6

The error code 73 corresponds to JVMTI_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_OPERATION.

The error seems to be triggered in Timers.c:

/*
 * Class:     org_graalvm_visualvm_lib_jfluid_server_system_Timers
 * Method:    getThreadCPUTimeInNanos
 * Signature: ()J
 */
JNIEXPORT jlong JNICALL Java_org_graalvm_visualvm_lib_jfluid_server_system_Timers_getThreadCPUTimeInNanos
  (JNIEnv *env, jclass clz)
{
    jlong threadTime;
    jvmtiError res;

    res = (*_jvmti)->GetCurrentThreadCpuTime(_jvmti,&threadTime);
    if (res != JVMTI_ERROR_NONE) fprintf(stderr, "Profiler Agent Error: GetCurrentThreadCpuTime failed with %d\n",res);
    assert(res == JVMTI_ERROR_NONE);
    return threadTime;
}

Looking into the source code of jdk21 it seems that the function GetCurrentThreadCpuTime doesn't support virtual threads:

// nanos_ptr - pre-checked for null
jvmtiError
JvmtiEnv::GetCurrentThreadCpuTime(jlong* nanos_ptr) {
  Thread* thread = Thread::current();

  // Surprisingly the GetCurrentThreadCpuTime is used by non-JavaThread's.
  if (thread->is_Java_thread()) {
    if (JavaThread::cast(thread)->is_vthread_mounted()) {
      // No support for a VirtualThread (yet).
      return JVMTI_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_OPERATION;
    }
  }
  *nanos_ptr = os::current_thread_cpu_time();
  return JVMTI_ERROR_NONE;
} /* end GetCurrentThreadCpuTime */

To Reproduce

1. Create the following program TriggerVisualVMProfileCrash.java:

class TriggerVisualVMProfileCrash {
    public static void main(String... args) throws Exception {
        System.out.println("Activate profiling and press key...");
        System.in.read();
        Thread.ofVirtual().start(() -> print());
    }

    public static void print() {
        System.out.println("print() called");
    }
}

2. Run the program in the console:

java -XX:+EnableDynamicAgentLoading -Xverify:none TriggerVisualVMProfileCrash.java

3. Activate de CPU Profiler for the class TriggerVisualVMProfileCrash:

4. Press enter in the console so the program continues execution.

5. The program will crash

I just hit this same issue. Here's my full output:

This is simple to reproduce in the https://github.com/FusionAuth/java-http project using the branch bpontarelli/virtual-threads. Happy to provide build and run instructions if needed.
