Hello I noticed that   -DUSE_MMAP  is set for these  JDK native libs, but I 
cannot find it in the code   (for libzip it is different there the flag shows 
up in the code too ) :

I've always assumed that this was used to control the behavior in some imported 
header files. Have you verified that this is not the case?

It is only used in

./java.base/share/native/libzip/zip_util.c
./java.base/share/native/libzip/zip_util.h

and the header itself is only included in the .c file. So unless this source file is used for the other libraries (which I don't see) then we don't need -DUSE_MMAP when building them.

AFAIKS the use of this for BUILD_LIBDT_SOCKET and BUILD_LIBDT_SHMEM
dates back to the build-infra changes in JDK 8.

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/jdk/rev/9d3d01aca52c

But I can't see why it was introduced there.

In JDK 7 it's only applied to the zip library.

Cheers,
David

Lib-jdk.jdi.gmk  :

32  $(eval $(call SetupJdkLibrary, BUILD_LIBDT_SHMEM, \
......
35 CFLAGS := $(CFLAGS_JDKLIB) -DUSE_MMAP, \


Lib-jdk.jdwp.agent.gmk :

30 $(eval $(call SetupJdkLibrary, BUILD_LIBDT_SOCKET, \
......
33 CFLAGS := $(CFLAGS_JDKLIB) -DUSE_MMAP \


Any objections  to remove those  2    -DUSE_MMAP    settings ?
If it is fine to remove I would prepare a  webrev .

Thanks, Matthias
