Hi Could you please review following fix which fix code so gcc doesn't complain when JDK is build with enabled native code coverage.
webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~lmesnik/8209520/webrev.00/ <http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~lmesnik/8209520/webrev.00/> bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8209520 <https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8209520> These warning appeared because of change optimization settings used for getting code coverage. 1) src/hotspot/cpu/x86/macroAssembler_x86.cpp, src/hotspot/share/gc/shared/genCollectedHeap.cpp gcc complained about uninitialized variables, like * For target hotspot_variant-server_libjvm_objs_macroAssembler_x86.o: /home/lmesnik/ws/jdk-8209520/open/src/hotspot/cpu/x86/macroAssembler_x86.cpp: In member function 'void ControlWord::print() const': /home/lmesnik/ws/jdk-8209520/open/src/hotspot/cpu/x86/macroAssembler_x86.cpp:5769:11: error: 'pc' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] printf("%04x masks = %s, %s, %s", _value & 0xFFFF, f, rc, pc); ~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /home/lmesnik/ws/jdk-8209520/open/src/hotspot/cpu/x86/macroAssembler_x86.cpp:5769:11: error: 'rc' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] So I just fixed codepath to show more explicitly that variables are initialized before usage. 2) src/java.desktop/share/native/libsplashscreen/splashscreen_png.c: The changes to prevent waning about clobbering in splashscreen_png.c are similar to fix in: JDK-8080695 <https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8080695>splashscreen_png.c compile error with gcc 4.9.2 The another approach would be to fix build to ignore these warnings for code coverage build. While I think it makes build system even more complicated. Leonid
