Hello Frieder,
No, unfortunately not. The way the build works, you need to build
everything even if you only need profile1. The compact profiles are only
considered at the last step where images are created. Later in jdk9,
when modules are properly implemented, it might be possible to build
only a limited set of jmods and link them together yourself to an image,
but it will not be straightforward to do so.
Note that the source file you had problems with in jdk8 is still part of
java.base in jdk9, so you can't do without it anyway.

Thanks for your fast answer!
This means in jdk8 there is no way to build only a smaller subset of the
jdk?
But in jdk9 there is?

Hello to all,
I am new in buiding OpenJDK and hope, that this is the right list for my
problem.
To get a small JVM and rt.jar I try to build OpenJDK 8 with the small
musl
libc (http://www.musl-libc.org/) instead of using the standard gnu libc,
yet I do not get it to build correctly.
My system: ubuntu 14.04 64bit
OpenJDK: OpenJDK 8 cloned from http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/
My Problem: The following headers (which musl does not provide) cannot be
found while building the solaris-part
jdk8/jdk/src/solaris/native/java/net/PlainDatagramSocketImpl.c:38:24:
fatal
error: sys/sysctl.h: No such file or directory
and
jdk8/jdk/src/solaris/native/java/net/NetworkInterface.c:50:25:
fatal error: bits/ioctls.h: No such file or directory
My Question: Even though I got a Linux (which is stated after the
configure
process) it tries to build the sources in the solaris directory. Is this
necessary or is there a way to prevent this?
For jdk8, jdk/src/solaris actually contains all the common "unix"
sources so you indeed have to compile it. In jdk8, the linux directory
only contains some man-pages but no real source code.
In jdk9 the sources have been reordered and now there's a "unix"
directory for shared unix sources and linux, solaris, aix, etc.
directories for platform dependent stuff.
Even deeper into this matter:
I only need the profile compact1 for the Linux OS, are there switches for
the configure step to achieve this?
Thank You in advance for any help!
Frieder
