These are patches to make OpenJDK run on musl-based systems, and generally just "not glibc amd64".
|
These are patches to make OpenJDK run on musl-based systems, removing the assumption that OpenJDK will
|
||||||
|
be being compiled against amd64 and glibc.
|
||||||
Some of these patches will break conformance with glibc on specific architectures, due to the stripping of LFS64 macros.
|
|
||||||
|
These patches are aimed at making OpenJDK packages for [Adélie Linux](https://www.adelielinux.org/) so that
|
||||||
|
we can partake in the traditional Linux "killer app" - Minecraft. Also, to support scientific computing
|
||||||
|
using Java for performance and portability reasons.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
As such, these patches may break compilation against glibc - particularly glibc on powerpc and x86 architectures
|
||||||
|
(the non-64-bit variants); this is why they're patches and not pull-requests.
