Hi Peter,

Yup, I'll give this a whirl.

Thanks Rob.

Hi Alan, Volker,

Thanks for sharing the info and for testing on AIX. Here's the updated webrev that hopefully includes the correct "dispatch on os.name" logic. I included "Solaris" as an alternative to "SunOS" since I saw this in some documents on Internet. If this is superfluous, I can remove it:


I checked the code that obtains the value for os.name system property in current OpenJDK. Here's the relevant part of src/solaris/native/java/lang/java_props_md.c:


#ifdef MACOSX
        setOSNameAndVersion(&sprops);
#else
        struct utsname name;
        uname(&name);
        sprops.os_name = strdup(name.sysname);
        sprops.os_version = strdup(name.release);
#endif


The uname() system function is used to obtain the OS name on all UNIXes except MACOSX, where a constant "Mac OS X" is used in src/solaris/native/java/lang/java_props_macosx.c:


void setOSNameAndVersion(java_props_t *sprops) {
/* Don't rely on JRSCopyOSName because there's no guarantee the value will * remain the same, or even if the JRS functions will continue to be part of
     * Mac OS X.  So hardcode os_name, and fill in os_version if we can.
     */
    sprops->os_name = strdup("Mac OS X");

    void *jrsFwk = getJRSFramework();
    if (jrsFwk != NULL) {
        char *(*copyOSVersion)() = dlsym(jrsFwk, "JRSCopyOSVersion");
        if (copyOSVersion != NULL) {
            sprops->os_version = copyOSVersion();
            return;
        }
    }
    sprops->os_version = strdup("Unknown");
}


The value of os.name for Linux is, I belive, always "Linux". The value for AIX is "AIX" and for Mac OS X is fixed to "Max OS X" at compile time. But what about all Solaris(es)? Thinking about OpenSolaris and forks... Would their uname() return "SunOS" too?


Regards, Peter

I tested this on Linux and Solaris and the java/lang/ProcessBuilder jtreg tests pass. So with Volker's test on AIX, the only OS platform left for testing is Mac OS X. Would someone volunteer?

Hi Peter,

thanks for applying these changes to the AIX files as well.

With the additional line:

             if (osName.equals("AIX")) { return AIX; }

in Os.get() your change compiles cleanly on AIX and runs the
java/lang/ProcessBuilder tests without any errors.

So from an AIX perspective, thumbs up.

Regards,
Volker

I couldn't find any official document about possible os.name values for
different supported OSes. Does anyone have a pointer?
I don't know if there is a definite list but I assume we don't need to be
concerned with anything beyond the 4 that we have in OpenJDK, which is
"Linux", "SunOS", "AIX" and contains("OS X").

If we get to the point in JDK 9 where src/solaris is renamed to src/unix (or something equivalent) then it could mean that the Os enum can be replaced with an OS specific class in src/linux, src/solaris, ... and this would
avoid the need for an os.name check at runtime.
