前言

现在看的资料都是编译 openjdk7 的，openjdk8好像已经 openjdk7 编译方式大一样，按照前辈的文章使用

make sanity

会提示找不到 sanity 规则，然后编译过程其实基本就直接

./configure
make all

官方的 README 写的很清楚。

下面记录下过程

下载代码

hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u jdk8u
cd jdk8u 
bash ./get_source.sh

然后下载代码，进入代码目录：

cd jdk8u

安装依赖

sudo aptitude build-dep openjdk-7 
sudo aptitude install openjdk-7-jdk

配置

• 环境变量

export LANG=C 
export PATH="/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk/bin:${PATH}"

• 配置编译选项

bash ./configure

这样生成相应默认配置，如果有需要，比如想编译出调试版本的，可以给 configure 加参数。

A new configuration has been successfully created in
/home/minix/SourceCode/openjdk8/jdk8u/build/linux-x86-normal-server-release
using default settings.

Configuration summary:
* Debug level:    release
* JDK variant:    normal
* JVM variants:   server
* OpenJDK target: OS: linux, CPU architecture: x86, address length: 32

Tools summary:
* Boot JDK:       java version "1.7.0_17" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_17-b02) Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 23.7-b01, mixed mode)  (at /home/minix/Software/jdk1.7.0_17)
* C Compiler:     gcc-4.6 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) version 4.6.3 (at /usr/bin/gcc-4.6)
* C++ Compiler:   g++-4.6 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) version 4.6.3 (at /usr/bin/g++-4.6)

Build performance summary:
* Cores to use:   3
* Memory limit:   3878 MB
* ccache status:  not installed (consider installing)

Build performance tip: ccache gives a tremendous speedup for C++ recompilations.
You do not have ccache installed. Try installing it.
You might be able to fix this by running ‘sudo apt-get install ccache‘.

可以看出提示缺少 ccache 包，按提示安装就可以了。从提示可以看出，编译级别是 release，另外还有几种编译级别，可以在调试时候提供更多的信息。例如：

bash ./configure --enable-debug

这样会生成 fastdebug 版本的配置信息：

A new configuration has been successfully created in
/home/minix/openjdk8/jdk8u/build/linux-x86-normal-server-fastdebug
using configure arguments ‘--enable-debug‘.

Configuration summary:
* Debug level:    fastdebug
* JDK variant:    normal
* JVM variants:   server
* OpenJDK target: OS: linux, CPU architecture: x86, address length: 32

Tools summary:
* Boot JDK:       java version "1.7.0_17" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_17-b02) Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 23.7-b01, mixed mode)  (at /home/minix/Software/jdk1.7.0_17)
* C Compiler:     gcc-4.6 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) version 4.6.3 (at /usr/bin/gcc-4.6)
* C++ Compiler:   g++-4.6 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) version 4.6.3 (at /usr/bin/g++-4.6)

Build performance summary:
* Cores to use:   3
* Memory limit:   3878 MB
* ccache status:  installed and in use

注意编译的级别已经变成 fastdebug 了。

编译

编译直接

make

就可以了，如果提示

No CONF given, but more than one configuration found in /home/minix/openjdk8/jdk8u//build.
Available configurations:
* linux-x86-normal-server-fastdebug
* linux-x86-normal-server-release
Please retry building with CONF=<config pattern> (or SPEC=<specfile>)

需要指定使用哪个编译配置：

make CONF=linux-x86-normal-server-fastdebug

最后编译成功后，会提示：

----- Build times -------
Start 2014-08-22 10:56:52
End   2014-08-22 11:16:31
00:00:30 corba
00:13:38 hotspot
00:00:22 jaxp
00:00:30 jaxws
00:04:10 jdk
00:00:29 langtools
00:19:39 TOTAL

查看 build 目录，可以看到 linux-x86-normal-server-fastdebug

切换到 jdk/bin 目录：

cd linux-x86-normal-server-fastdebug/jdk/bin/

运行可执行文件 java

./java -version

会得到提示

openjdk version "1.8.0-internal-fastdebug"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0-internal-fastdebug-minix_2014_08_22_10_56-b00)
OpenJDK Server VM (build 25.40-b05-fastdebug, mixed mode)

调试

下面展示一个启动 GDB, 加断点，并运行一个 Java 程序的过程。

$ gdb java
