On WSL, “uname -s" will print Linux, however one can distinguish between WSL and “true” Linux by “uname -r" containing Microsoft. However, in WSL we can build both a WSL Linux target, or a WSL Windows target, which means we have to either check the JDK-under-test (check if it is a Windows or Linux JDK) or have some environment variable to indicate such.

If we accept this assumption, then, is there any reasonable alternative to “uname"? There is a “systeminfo” tool on windows, not sure if it helps. We really need to know what “uname -s” outputs, though, as it might still work. It would help if we could crowd-source a table showing the value on different systems. -- jon
