Hi,

Please review this 8u-only change. JDK 10+ are not affected.

For JDK 8 builds which don't perform any debug info stripping no
.gnu_debuglink sections should get generated. The fix is to move the
objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink calls into branches which actually perform
some stripping: all_strip, min_strip. Thoughts?

Has anything changed with the tools here? This has been in place since back in 2011 with 7u2 and 8 GA! Why has it only become an issue now?

That's not an objection to the fix, I'm just curious how a problem could exist for so long.

Thanks,
David

webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sgehwolf/webrevs/JDK-8206425/webrev.01/

Testing: Manually produced a build with no stripping and verified no
.gnu_debuglink sections got generated.

$ for i in $(find build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/j2sdk-image/ \
  | grep -E 'libjvm.so|libsaproc.so|libjsig.so'); do echo $i
  readelf --sections $i | grep gnu_debuglink; done
