Hi,
when I crossbuild (for linux aarch64, using a devkit, building on linux
x64), for some reason I don't
get the classes.jsa generated inside the images directory.
My configure options:
--with-devkit=/shared/projects/openjdk/devkits/x86_64-linux-gnu-to-aarch64-linux-gnu
--openjdk-target=aarch64-linux-gnu
--with-boot-jdk=/shared/projects/openjdk/jdks/sapmachine17
--with-build-jdk=/shared/projects/openjdk/jdk-jdk/output-release/images/jdk
--with-gtest=/shared/projects/openjdk/gtest/googletest
--with-debug-level=fastdebug
The build jdk is a freshly build x64 release VM from the same source tree.
Am I missing something obvious? Is CDS archive generation even supported
for crossbuilds?
It needs the generate run-time to execute "java -Xshare:dump" so I don't
expect so. hotspot-runtime-dev is probably the place to discuss the
details. BTW: this came up recently in the context of the jlink plugin
that generates the CDS archive. The plugin needed a check to ensure that
the target platform matched the current platform as it could launch the
target VM to create the dump.
