Hello,
Please review fix for: JDK-8115868
The webrev is here:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ksrini/8115868/webrev.0/
The background:
The launcher uses stat(2) to check for the existence of a file,
unfortunately
on 32-bit system with large file systems causes the inode storage to
overflow
causing the syscall to return EOVERFLOW.
Solution:
* stat(2) replaced with access(3), in most cases.
* jbs is marked noreg-hard hard to replicate the problem
Thanks
Kumar
