Original description for JDK-8307194 change: ----- This PR is branched from the makefile changes for https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8303796 and contains the following for handling the JDK/hotspot static libraries:
- Build hotspot libjvm.a and JDK static libraries for static-libs-image/static-libs-bundles targets; This change does not affect the graal-builder-image target - For libjvm.a specifically, exclude operator_new.o - Filter out "external" .o files (those are the .o files included from a different JDK library and needed when creating the .so shared library only) from JDK .a libraries; That's to avoid linker failures caused by duplicate symbols - For libjli.a: Not include inflate.o inftrees.o inffast.o zadler32.o zcrc32.o zutil.o (compiled from zlib sources) if zlib is built as JDK bundled - For libawt_xawt.a and libawt_head.a: Not include systemScale.o, since it's provided in libawt.a - Handle long arguments case for static build in make/common/NativeCompilation.gmk - Address @erikj79's comment in https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/13709#discussion_r1180750185 for LIBJLI_STATIC_EXCLUDE_OBJS ----- Updates to address build failures reported on macosx-<cpu> platforms: - For gcc/clang, when building a static library first partially link (using the `-r` linking option) all object files into one object. The output object file from the partial linking is then passed to `ar` to create the static library. The original change for JDK-8307194 used @argument_file for all platforms when dealing with long arguments to `ar`, which caused failures on macosx-<cpu> builds. On darwin (https://www.unix.com/man-page/osx/1/ar/), `ar` does not support @argument_file. The updated change avoids using @argument_file for `ar`. The partial linking change is done in make/common/NativeCompilation.gmk. The flag related change is done in make/autoconf/flags-ldflags.m4 mainly. ------------- Commit messages: - Merge branch 'master' into JDK-8307858 - Clean up. - In clude $MACHINE_FLAG in partial linking flag. - Use '-m32' instead of '-m elf_i386'. - Use '-m elf_i386' for partial linking with gcc for linux 32-bit platform. - Only do partial linking step with gcc/clang on 64-bit platform. - Need to set $1_AR_OBJ_ARG to $$($1_LD_OBJ_ARG) instead of $1_LD_OBJ_ARG. - Merge branch 'master' into JDK-8307858 - Revert src/java.desktop/linux/native/libjsound/PLATFORM_API_LinuxOS_ALSA_CommonUtils.c change. - When building a static library, partially link the input object files first. Then create the static library using the output object file produced by partial linking. - ... and 1 more: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/compare/265f40b4...8af1ec2f Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/14064/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=jdk&pr=14064&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8307858 Stats: 201 lines in 10 files changed: 150 ins; 34 del; 17 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/14064.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/jdk.git pull/14064/head:pull/14064 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/14064
