Given where it is crashing, I recommend sending your message to
core-libs-dev 'at' openjdk.org instead. This isn't a Java client libs issue.

Hello,
I am used to crosscompile openjdk for cortex-a[7|8|9] manually or using
buildroot framework without severe Problems.
ARM EABIhf 32Bit.
However recently I got in contact with a customer's rootfs using
musl-1.2.5 instead of musl-1.2.4 which I was used to and had no problems with.
Severe debugging resulted in the crash whenever musl-1.2.5 was used in
the target (regardeless what musl version was used to crosscompile and
regardeless with java I tried, correto-24, openjdk-21, openjdk-24).
I tested with a helloworld downloaded from github somewhere.
"java -jar helloworld.jar" crashes. Unzippping the jar and using
"java -cp . HelloWorld" works!
Crashes looks something like those:

With 1.2.4 everything works fine.
Farther debugging revealed that following fix in Java allowed to run it
with 1.2.5:

May be this has something to do with the stat ./. stat64 stuff or so.
Should this be investigated to be repaired in musl or should I head to
the java guys?
