How to add platform-specific metrics?

[Thomas Stüfe]

Hi,

short JFR question:

Is there an accepted way to add OS/Arch/Runtime-specific metrics, exclude
them where they don't make sense (both in JFR and JMC), and name them
clearly as what they are? One example of many: "glibc memory retention".

>From what I see, everything I add would have to be forced through some
platform-agnostic lens? As in, find some umbrella name for it over all
configurations (OSes/libc variants/Architectures), even if the metric makes
no sense on other configurations.

Thanks,

Thomas
