Yes with "--limitmods com.greetings" the result as I expected. So, why
jlink links all modules without resolving over the root
"org.greetings" module? When jlink links all modules?
The -limitmods option is limiting the set of observable modules to
com.greetings and its transitive dependences. Very useful for testing
and also important when using the linker.
There isn't a jlink JEP yet but I would expect the issue as to whether
the tool does service binding by default or not be listed in its open
options. In the current prototype then it always does service binding so
this is why the resulting image has the service provider modules and
their dependences.
