Failed test cases: 
TEST: tools/javah/ReadOldClass.sh
Test results: passed: 3,120; failed: 1

This test fails on AIX Logs:

19:53:12  STDOUT:
19:53:12  Unrecognized system!
19:53:12  STDERR:
19:53:12  rerun:

Looking at the test code:

https://github.com/adoptium/jdk8u/blob/1a6e3a5ea32d5c671cb46a590046f16426089921/langtools/test/tools/javah/ReadOldClass.sh#L31

# set platform-dependent variables
OS=`uname -s`
case "$OS" in
  SunOS | Linux | Darwin | CYGWIN* )

  Windows* )
    PS=";"
    FS="\\"
    ;;
  * )
    echo "Unrecognized system!"
    exit 1;
    ;;
esac

uname -s returns AIX on aix machines, so this test is expected to fail on AIX. Should be excluded for JDK8 (only present on JDK8)

Adding serviceability/dcmd/DynLibDcmdTest.java to this issue. Looking at the code, it fails if run on AIX https://github.com/adoptium/jdk8u/blob/1a6e3a5ea32d5c671cb46a590046f16426089921/hotspot/test/serviceability/dcmd/DynLibDcmdTest.java#L4

        String osDependentBaseString = null;
        if (Platform.isSolaris()) {
            osDependentBaseString = "lib%s.so";
        } else if (Platform.isWindows()) {
            osDependentBaseString = "%s.dll";
        } else if (Platform.isOSX()) {
            osDependentBaseString = "lib%s.dylib";
        } else if (Platform.isLinux()) {
            osDependentBaseString = "lib%s.so";
        }

        if (osDependentBaseString == null) {
            throw new Exception("Unsupported OS");
        }

This is what we are seeing in our logs:
