Hello,
For the build change, it's very undesirable to always have to relink
libjvm on every incremental build. Such a change cannot be accepted.
I have a counter suggestion, which is still a bit of a hack, but it will
cause vm_version.cpp to be recompiled (almost) every time libjvm.so
needs to be relinked. The drawback is that compiling vm_version.cpp is
now bound to happen absolutely last and so cannot happen in parallel
with other compilations.

Hi,
Please review the following webrev that addresses the issue of copied/moved JDK
image after generating a CDS archive. Thanks Karen Kinnear and Alan Baterman for
initiating the investigation & discussions in this area (especially the ease of
usage). Thanks Ioi for implementing a test case for moved JDK (JDK-8202935).

The webrev includes the following three main parts:
1. Reduced check for JDK ‘modules’ image file at runtime. The runtime path to
the ‘modules’ image is no longer required to the the same as dump time path.
Runtime performs file size check only for the ‘modules’ image, which must match
with the dump time ‘modules’ size. Invalidation of an outdated archive is
achieved by the existing vm_version string check (the archived vm_version
string must match with the runtime vm_version string).
2. Boot path check are now performed based on the content of the archive. Also
added a new test case in BootClassPathMismatch.java and add more comments for
existing test cases.
3. Fixed the stale vm_version string issue with incremental build. The issue
was discovered during the work of 8199807. CDS uses vm_version string as part
of the runtime validation check for archive. A stale vm_version string causes
the CDS runtime to mistakenly accept an outdated archive. The fix is to make
sure vm_version.o is recompiled properly when the library/vm is rebuilt.
Tested with hs-tier1-4 and jdk-tier1-2. Tested by relocating the JDK image
manually after generating an archive. Also tested with Ioi’s test both locally
and via Mach5.
Thanks,
Jiangli
