Proposal for adding O_DIRECT support into JDK 9

[Lu, Yingqi]

Hi Brian,

That is very true! I forgot about the solaris check. My bad!

I do not see the issue on my Linux box. I am not familiar with the jtreg framework. One easy way I can think of is to have the 4 read/write tests independent of DirectIOTest case by having their own checks. Will this work?

Thanks,
Lucy

Hi Lucy,

Correct but the other tests call DirectIOTest.isDirectIOSupportedByFS() which causes the static initializer of DirectIOTest to load the library.

Thanks,

Brian

I might be missing something here, but I think the four read/write tests do not need the libDirectIO.dylib file? Only DirectIOTest.java needs the native library.
