Sorry. I only noticed now that you added this to UPGRADEABLE_MODULE. Please add it only to PLATFORM_MODULES list instead. Making it an upgradeable module is a separate issue. I suggest you reopen JDK-8171448. Specifically, since upgradeable modules are not tied with java.base, our goal for JDK 9 is to eliminate qualified exports from JDK modules to upgradeable modules, e.g. JDK-8170116, JDK-8166745, JDK-8161549. > I think I should get at least one sign-off from the security team. > Hope Sean will review this one.

When a module M is recorded in the ModuleHashes attribute of java.base, the runtime will check if module M resolved in the graph matches the one tied with java.base when created at build time; if not, it will fail.

It’s better to separate this review from JDK-8171448.
