Description

JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS is a JVM override to allow setting JVM flags without modifying all code which creates the JVM, but for security reasons (see https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8039152) it needs to log to stderr. Python dtest uses the function assert_stderr_clean to check to see if stderr had any unexpected errors, and should whitelist JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS so it doesn’t cause test failures.
