Hello Max,

I couldn't find the link to the review but I'm guessing this is the one:

Please review the code changes at

  8011402: Move blacklisting certificate logic from hard code to data

Hard coded blacklisted certificates are moved out of the class file and now inside a data file. Furthermore, only their fingerprints are released in the JRE. The makefile covers blacklist files in both open and closed repo.

No regression test, cleanup.

*build-dev*, I am not an export of Makefile, and I have some questions:

1. I create a new macro (or function?) called cat-files. Its only difference from install-file is that it needs to deal with two inputs. Do we already have a similar macro somewhere?

I do not think so.
2. cat-files is defined inside CopyFiles.gmk right beside its usage. Do you think it's better to define it in a common file?

We could put this in a common file, in that case it would be common/makefiles/MakeBase.gmk. However, this macro does more than just cat files. It sorts and removes duplicates too. In this case, since it's used only once, I would skip the macro def and just inline the recipe. Also note that prep-target doesn't exist anymore. What you want is probably:

$(MKDIR) -p $(@D)

3. Most important: it only works if both $(BLACKLISTED_CERTS_SRC_OPEN) and $(BLACKLISTED_CERTS_SRC_CLOSED) already exists. Currently there is no closed blacklist, but I still have to create an empty file there. Otherwise, there will be

make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/space/repos/jdk8/tl/jdk/src/closed/share/lib/security/blacklisted.certs', needed by `/space/repos/jdk8/tl/build/macosx-x86_64-normal-server-release/jdk/lib/security/blacklisted.certs'. Stop.

Is there a way to make it work without adding that empty file?
Yes:
BLACKLISTED_CERTS_SRCS := /path/to/open/certs
ifndef OPENJDK
  BLACKLISTED_CERTS_SRCS += /path/to/closed/certs
endif

$(BLACKLISTED_CERTS_DEST): $(BLACKLISTED_CERTS_SRCS)
    <do stuff>

Thanks
Max
