RFR(xs): 8184344: [aix] libjvm.so TOC overflow for slowdebug

[Langer, Christoph]

Hi Thomas,

the fix looks ok to me.

I’m copying build-dev because of the changes in generated-configure.sh. Don’t know if this can just be pushed from extern or if it needs some special handling from Oracle folks or other things to take care of?

Best regards
Christoph

Hi all,

may I please have a review for the following fix:

webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~stuefe/webrevs/8184344-TOC-overflow/webrev.00/webrev/
Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8184344

Basically, the TOC on AIX overflows on slowdebug builds. I am not sure yet which change caused that - I suspect one of the recent template-metaprogramming changes but have not investigated yet.

Thanks, Thomas
