a) how much time it adds to the build?
I have not done extensive testing, but on my Linux workstation with
32 hw threads, building just hotspot release build from a clean
workspace increased maybe 1 or 2 seconds (at around 90s total), but
the variance was around the same amount as that.
b) why this doesn't work for Solaris Studio?
I didn't put a lot of effort into trying to figure it out. The check
used was provided by Kim Barrett, for Linux only. I figured it would
be simple enough to get it to work on mac and succeeded there. It
should certainly be possible to implement a similar check on Solaris,
but is it worth the time to do it? Both development time and
increased build time on one of the slower build platforms?
Depends how concerned we are with detecting this problem in OS
specific source code?
I investigated this some more. I was able to do it successfully, but the
build time cost is way too large here. The culprit is c++filt on Solaris
which is incredibly costly, and the gnu version does not demangle
Solaris Studio symbols. I don't think we should do this on Solaris.
We could grep for the mangled strings for the operators instead, which
is super fast. Problem is just figuring out all the possible combinations.

To be honest I'm not sure this pulls its own weight regardless.

Hello,
This patch adds a build time check for uses of global operators new
and delete in hotspot C++ code. The check is only run with
toolchains GCC and Clang (Linux and Macos builds). I have also
modified the Oracle devkit on Linux to add the necessary symlink so
that objdump will get picked up by configure.
This change is depending on several fixes removing such uses that
are currently in jdk/hs so this change will need to be pushed there
as well.
