Hi, here is the Windows counterpart of 8167420.
Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8167457 Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~clanger/webrevs/8167457.0/ Mainly I suggest to replace gethostbyaddr/gethostbyname in Inet4AddressImpl.c to getaddrinfo/getnameinfo - such as Inet6AddressImpl.c on Windows is using it and also Inet4AddressImpl.c on Unix is already using. It goes along with a few other changes and pretty much aligns with the Unix counterparts of the native implementation. Here are the details: Java_java_net_Inet4AddressImpl_lookupAllHostAddr: - use getaddrinfo instead of gethostbyname - no isspace(hostname[0]) check. The comment says that it is only needed because of a bug in Windows2000. But this version is not supported by OpenJDK9. And my tests show no problems with removing it. - no isDottedIPAddress check. This is Windows specific and I could not see any problems with removing it in my tests. Usually IPv4 addresses should not be handed down to this function, only invalid ones. And then the default would be to use gethostbyname. - use NET_ThrowByNameWithLastError after getaddrinfo non null return, to reflect WSAGetLastError value Java_java_net_Inet4AddressImpl_getHostByAddr: - use getnameinfo instead of gethostbyaddr Java_java_net_Inet6AddressImpl_lookupAllHostAddr: - use NET_ThrowByNameWithLastError after getaddrinfo non null return, to reflect WSAGetLastError value Java_java_net_Inet6AddressImpl_getHostByAddr: - replace CHECK_NULL_RETURN(ret, NULL) with UnknownHostException in case of getnameinfo error - this seems more correct when looking at the usage of getHostByAddr in InetAddress.java As with the other webrev for 8167420, I'll add it to our OpenJDK build/test environment. And I'd appreciate any feedback :) Thanks and best regards Christoph
