[8u-backport] JDK-8087516 : [JavaFX] Conditional support for GTK 3 on Linux

Wed Oct 10 12:09:18 UTC 2018

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for review and the information provided.

I have updated the webrev for the proposed change from RTLD_GLOBAL to RTLD_LOCAL in launcher.c. Along with the this change, the new patch also includes the backport of two more fixes mentioned below. So now we have backported total of 20 bugs. 

19. JDK-8171985: Fx applet fails to get loaded on Ubuntu with jre9-b150
20. JDK-8171928: Build fails on Oracle Linux 7 with unused parameter warning

I have tested it on all three platforms (Windows 10, Linux (Ubuntu 18.4 LTS, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS) and and Mac) and no new test failures are found. I have tested the "HelloWebView" and "Ensemble" and I don't see any issue. I did some sanity testing on OL 7.5 as well and things look good to me.

Webrev:

Regards,
Pankaj

I debugged this offline earlier today, and it looks related to a collision in the glib library. As I mentioned offline, a possible solution is to remove RTLD_GLOBAL from the dlopen of the libglassgtk{2,3}.so library. I was able to do a full build / test on both GTK 2 and GTK 3 including media and webkit with that modification.

Overall, this is looking quite good.

One more thing: the patch adds several new tests, so you will need to run at least the new tests on all three platforms (a quick check on Mac shows a couple failures).

I also see a couple differences between jfx-dev and 8u-dev in the native code that should be looked into to make sure there wasn't a missed fix on the backport (the Hi-DPI diffs are expected, but I see a couple others).
