> Can I please get a review for this change which proposes to fix the issue > reported in https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8206890? > > The `jlink` command allows a `--endian` option to specify the byte order in > the generated image. Before this change, when such a image was being > launched, the code would assume the byte order in the image to be the native > order of the host where the image is being launched. That would result in > failure to launch java, as noted in the linked issue. > > The commit in this PR, changes relevant places to not assume native order and > instead determine the byte order by reading the magic bytes in the image > file's header content. > > A new jtreg test has been added which reproduces the issue and verifies the > fix.
