RFR(S): 8208623: [TESTBUG] runtime/LoadClass/LongBCP.java fails in AUFS file system

[Pengfei Li]

Hi David,


I've tried to find such kind of Java APIs but didn't get an appropriate one. Maybe the os file system type is designed to be transparent to Java applications. So the only way I could think of is to execute a shell command.

Thanks,

I'm wondering whether the filesystem type can be found through one of
the java.nio.file APIs i.e FileSystem/FileStore/FileSystemProvider so
that you do not have to exec the "stat -f -c %T ." command ??

It would also be beneficial for checking the operation of the test to
print the "max length" value that it ends up testing.

Thanks,
David
