Yes, you're right, CDS_ONLY/NOT_CDS isn't really required here, because UseSharedSpaces is reseted later on at the end of Arguments::parse(). I just thought it would be cleaner to disable it statically, if the VM doesn't support it. But anyway I don't really mind and I've reverted that change in globals.hpp. > src/hotspot/share/classfile/javaClasses.cpp > > AFAICS you should be using INCLUDE_CDS in the ifdefs not > INCLUDE_CDS_JAVA_HEAP.

Must have been a mis-configuration on AIX where I saw undefined symbols at link time. I've removed the ifdefs from javaClasses.cpp now. Finally, I've also wrapped all the FileMapInfo fields in vmStructs.cpp into CDS_ONLY macros as suggested by Jiangli because the really only make sense for a CDS-enabled VM. Here's the new webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~simonis/webrevs/2018/8204965.v3/ Please let me know if you think there's still something missing.
