RFR: 8211752: JNU_ThrowIOExceptionWithLastErrorAndPath - enhance some IOExceptions with path causing the issue

[Baesken, Matthias]

Ping ...  any reviews / comments ?

Should I add  a category  , for example    "ioExceptionsWithPath"     to the java.security - file  to control  the enabling/disabling of the  enhanced exception ?

  java.security

#
# Enhanced exception message information
...
#jdk.includeInExceptions=hostInfo,jar,ioExceptionsWithPath


Thanks, Matthias

Hello, Alan commented on it :


  *   This proposal will require a security review as it leaks sensitive information into exceptions.

So I forward it to security-dev as well.

If needed,  we might  use something similar to  JDK-8207768  where a category  has been added  for  enhanced exception messages to the
java.security file .

Best regards, Matthias

Hello, please review the following change .
It enhances a number of JNU_ThrowIOExceptionWithLastError  calls with path and current working directory information.
For this, a new function JNU_ThrowIOExceptionWithLastErrorAndPath is added.
