JFR is a low-overhead framework to collect and provide data helpful to troubleshoot the performance of the OpenJDK runtime and of Java applications. It consists of a new API to define custom events under the jdk.jfr namespace and a JMX interface to interact with the framework. The recording can also be initiated with the application startup using the -XX:+FlightRecorder flag or via jcmd. JFR replaces the +XX:EnableTracing feature introduced in JEP 167, providing a more efficient way to retrieve the same information. For compatibility reasons, +XX:EnableTracing is still accepted, however no data will be printed. While JFR is not built by default upstream, it is included in Fedora binaries for supported architectures (x86_64, AArch64 & PowerPC 64) ## [JDK-8205622](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8205622): JFR Start Failure After AppCDS Archive Created with JFR StartFlightRecording JFR will be disabled with a warning message if it is enabled during CDS dumping. The user will see the following warning message: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: JFR will be disabled during CDS dumping if JFR is enabled during CDS dumping such as in the following command line: $ java -Xshare:dump -XX:StartFlightRecording=dumponexit=true ## [JDK-8244167](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8244167): Removal of Comodo Root CA Certificate The following expired Comodo root CA certificate was removed from the `cacerts` keystore: + alias name "addtrustclass1ca [jdk]" Distinguished Name: CN=AddTrust Class 1 CA Root, OU=AddTrust TTP Network, O=AddTrust AB, C=SE ## [JDK-8244166](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8244166): Removal of DocuSign Root CA Certificate The following expired DocuSign root CA certificate was removed from the `cacerts` keystore: + alias name "keynectisrootca [jdk]" Distinguished Name: CN=KEYNECTIS ROOT CA, OU=ROOT, O=KEYNECTIS, C=FR ## [JDK-8240191](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8240191): Allow SunPKCS11 initialization with NSS when external FIPS modules are present in the Security Modules Database The SunPKCS11 security provider can now be initialized with NSS when FIPS-enabled external modules are configured in the Security Modules Database (NSSDB). Prior to this change, the SunPKCS11 provider would throw a RuntimeException with the message: "FIPS flag set for non-internal module" when such a library was configured for NSS in non-FIPS mode. This change allows the JDK to work properly with recent NSS releases on GNU/Linux operating systems when the system-wide FIPS policy is turned on. Further information can be found in [JDK-8238555](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8238555). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog:
* Mon Jul 13 2020 Jiri Vanek jvanek@redhat.com - 1:1.8.0.262.b10-1 - Set vendor property and vendor URLs - Made URLs to be preconfigured by OS * Sun Jul 12 2020 Andrew Hughes gnu.andrew@redhat.com - 1:1.8.0.262.b10-0 - Update to aarch64-shenandoah-jdk8u262-b10. - Update release notes for 8u262 release. - Remove issues in NEWS file duplicated between 8u252 & 8u262 releases. - Update generate_source_tarball.sh script to use the PR3756 patch and retain the secp256k1 curve. - Add the -'4curve' suffix to the tarball name. - Adjust JDK-8143245/PR3548 patch following context changes due to JDK-8203287 for JFR - Adjust RH1648644 following context changes due to introduction of JFR packages - Split JDK-8042159 patch into per-repo patches as upstream. - Update JDK-8042159 JDK patch to apply after JDK-8238002 changes to Awt2dLibraries.gmk - Enable JFR in our builds, ahead of upstream default. - Only enable JFR for JIT builds, as it is not supported with Zero. - Turn off JFR on x86 for now due to assert(SerializePageShiftCount == count) crash. - Explicitly list jfr.jar, default.jfc & profile.jfc in the spec file. - Introduce jfr_arches for architectures which support JFR. - Fix typo in jfr_arches which leads to ppc64 being wrongly excluded. - Add jfr binary to devel package and alternatives set - With JDK-8248399 fixed, a broken jfr binary is no longer installed on architectures without JFR. - Require tzdata 2020a so system tzdata matches resource updates in b07 - Use sa_arches for libsaproc.so inclusion. * Wed May 27 2020 Jiri Andrlik jandrlik@redhat.com - 1:1.8.0.252.b09-1 - backports of provides fixes from master --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
