# OpenJDK-patches

These are patches to make OpenJDK run on musl-based systems, removing the assumption that OpenJDK will 
be being compiled against amd64 and glibc. 

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.
