85 <p> |
|
86 This file often describes specific requirements for what we call the |
|
87 "minimum build environments" (MBE) for the JDK. |
|
88 Building with the MBE will generate the most compatible |
|
89 bits that install on, and run correctly on, the most variations |
|
90 of the same base OS and hardware architecture. |
|
91 These usually represent what is often called the |
|
92 least common denominator platforms. |
|
93 It is understood that most developers will NOT be using these |
|
94 specific platforms, and in fact creating these specific platforms |
|
95 may be difficult due to the age of some of this software. |
|
96 <p> |
|
97 |
|

380 Building the |
|
381 OpenJDK |
|
382 is done with a <tt><i>gmake</i></tt> |
|
383 command line and various |
|
384 environment or make variable settings that direct the make rules |
|
385 to where various components have been installed. |
|
386 Where possible the makefiles will attempt to located the various |
|
387 components in the default locations or any component specific |
|
388 variable settings. |
|
389 When the normal defaults fail or components cannot be found, |
|
390 the various |
|
391 <tt>ALT_*</tt> variables (alternates) |
|
392 can be used to help the makefiles locate components. |
|
393 <p> |
|
394 Refer to the bash/sh/ksh setup file |
|
395 <tt>jdk/make/jdk_generic_profile.sh</tt> |
|
396 if you need help in setting up your environment variables. |
|
397 A build could be as simple as: |
|
398 <blockquote> |
|
399 <pre><tt> |
|
400 bash |
|
401 . jdk/make/jdk_generic_profile.sh |

402 <i>gmake</i> sanity && <i>gmake</i> |

403 </tt></pre> |
|
404 </blockquote> |
|
405 <p> |
|
406 Of course ksh or sh would work too. |
|
407 But some customization will probably be necessary. |
|
408 The <tt>sanity</tt> rule will make some basic checks on build |
|
409 dependencies and generate appropriate warning messages |
|
410 regarding missing, out of date, or newer than expected components |
|
411 found on your system. |

|
609 <p> |
|
610 <strong>Windows:</strong> |
|
611 Note that GNU make is a historic utility and is based very |
|
612 heavily on shell scripting, so it does not tolerate the Windows habit |
|
613 of having spaces in pathnames or the use of the <tt>\</tt>characters in pathnames. |
|
614 Luckily on most Windows systems, you can use <tt>/</tt>instead of \, and |
|
615 there is always a 'short' pathname without spaces for any path that |
|
616 contains spaces. |
|
617 Unfortunately, this short pathname can be somewhat dynamic and the |
|
618 formula is difficult to explain. |
|
619 You can use <tt>cygpath</tt> utility to map pathnames with spaces |
|
620 or the <tt>\</tt>character into the <tt>C:/</tt> style of pathname |
|
621 (called 'mixed'), e.g. |
|
622 <tt>cygpath -s -m "<i>path</i>"</tt>. |
|
623 <p> |
|
624 The makefiles will try to translate any pathnames supplied |
|
625 to it into the <tt>C:/</tt> style automatically. |
|
626 <p> |
|
627 Note that use of CYGWIN creates a unique problem with regards to |
|
628 setting <a href="#path"><tt>PATH</tt></a>. Normally on Windows |
|
629 the <tt>PATH</tt> variable contains directories |
|
630 separated with the ";" character (Solaris and Linux uses ":"). |
|
631 With CYGWIN, it uses ":", but that means that paths like "C:/path" |
|
632 cannot be placed in the CYGWIN version of <tt>PATH</tt> and |
|
633 instead CYGWIN uses something like <tt>/cygdrive/c/path</tt> |
|
634 which CYGWIN understands, but only CYGWIN understands. |
|
635 So be careful with paths on Windows. |

681 Depending on the platform, the |

687 Some of these are specific to a platform, some even specific to |

688 an architecture. |
|
689 Each dependency will have a set of ALT variables that can be set |
|
690 to tell the makefiles where to locate the component. |
|
691 In most cases setting these ALT variables may not be necessary |

705 For build performance reasons |

|
1325 <p> |
|
1326 A build can fail for any number of reasons. |
|
1327 Most failures |
|
1328 are a result of trying to build in an environment in which all the |
|
1329 pre-build requirements have not been met. |
|
1330 The first step in |
|
1331 troubleshooting a build failure is to recheck that you have satisfied |
|
1332 all the pre-build requirements for your platform. |
|
1333 Look for the check list of the platform you are building on in the |
|
1334 <a href="#contents">Table of Contents</a>. |
|
1335 |
|
1336 <p> |
|
1337 You can validate your build environment by using the <tt>sanity</tt> |
|
1338 target. |
|
1339 Any errors listed |
|
1340 will stop the build from starting, and any warnings may result in |
|
1341 a flawed product build. |
|
1342 We strongly encourage you to evaluate every |
|
1343 sanity check warning and fix it if required, before you proceed |
|
1344 further with your build. |
|
1345 |
|
1346 <p> |
|
1347 Some of the more common problems with builds are briefly described |
|
1348 below, with suggestions for remedies. |
|

|
1352 <b>Slow Builds:</b> |
|
1353 <blockquote> |
|
1354 <p> |
|
1355 If your build machine seems to be overloaded from too many |
|
1356 simultaneous C++ compiles, try setting the <tt>HOTSPOT_BUILD_JOBS</tt> |
|
1357 variable to <tt>1</tt> (if you're using a multiple CPU |
|
1358 machine, setting it to more than the the number of CPUs is probably |
|
1359 not a good idea). |
|
1360 <p> |
|
1361 Creating the javadocs can be very slow, if you are running |
|
1362 javadoc, consider skipping that step. |
|
1363 <p> |
|
1364 Faster hardware and more RAM always helps too. |
|
1365 The VM build tends to be CPU intensive (many C++ compiles), |
|
1366 and the rest of the JDK will often be disk intensive. |
|
1367 <p> |
|
1368 Faster compiles are possible using a tool called |
|
1369 <a href="http://ccache.samba.org/">ccache</a>. |

|
1373 <b>File time issues:</b> |
|
1374 <blockquote> |
|
1375 <p> |
|
1376 If you see warnings that refer to file time stamps, e.g. |
|
1377 <blockquote> |
|
1378 <i>Warning message:</i><tt> File `xxx' has modification time in |
|
1379 the future.</tt> |
|
1380 <br> |
|
1381 <i>Warning message:</i> <tt> Clock skew detected. Your build may |
|
1382 be incomplete.</tt> |
|
1383 </blockquote> |
|
1384 <p> |
|
1385 These warnings can occur when the clock on the build machine is out of |
|
1386 sync with the timestamps on the source files. Other errors, apparently |
|
1387 unrelated but in fact caused by the clock skew, can occur along with |
|
1388 the clock skew warnings. These secondary errors may tend to obscure the |
|
1389 fact that the true root cause of the problem is an out-of-sync clock. |
|
1390 For example, an out-of-sync clock has been known to cause an old |
|
1391 version of javac to be used to compile some files, resulting in errors |
|
1392 when the pre-1.4 compiler ran across the new <tt>assert</tt> keyword |
|
1393 in the 1.4 source code. |
|
1394 <p> |
|
1395 If you see these warnings, reset the clock on the build |
|
1396 machine, run "<tt><i>gmake</i> clobber</tt>" or delete the directory |
|
1397 containing the build output, and restart the build from the beginning. |

1404 Increase the amount of swap space on your build machine. |

1407 <li> |
|
1408 <b>Error Message: <tt>libstdc++ not found:</tt></b> |
|
1409 <blockquote> |
|
1410 This is caused by a missing libstdc++.a library. |
|
1411 This is installed as part of a specific package |
|
1412 (e.g. libstdc++.so.devel.386). |
|
1413 By default some 64bit Linux versions (e.g. Fedora) |
|
1414 only install the 64bit version of the libstdc++ package. |
|
1415 Various parts of the JDK build require a static |
|
1416 link of the C++ runtime libraries to allow for maximum |
|
1417 portability of the built images. |

1421 <b>Error Message: <tt>cannot restore segment prot after reloc</tt></b> |

|
1423 This is probably an issue with SELinux (See |
|
1424 <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SELinux">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SELinux</a>). |
|
1425 Parts of the VM is built without the <tt>-fPIC</tt> for |

1426 performance reasons. |

1427 <p> |

1428 To completely disable SELinux: |

1434 <li>Disable SELinux</li> |

1436 <p> |
|
1437 Alternatively, instead of completely disabling it you could |

1438 disable just this one check. |
