My initial thinking is like Erik's, that this list should be dynamically generated at build-time. I am pretty sure that anything but doing that will end up with hard-to-debug problems in the future. At build-time, you know exactly what symbols you are linking with. If this, for some reason, is infeasible, then we can discuss how to generate/update such a list, and where to put it. If the list needs to be manually generated ahead-of-time of the build, then this should ideally be done by a script that is checked in. If manual intervention/curation is needed, then this needs to be properly documented. Just pushing a list like this, with no explanation, is not going to cut it, regardless of where in the source code tree it is stored. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/16414#issuecomment-1805972829
