8193017: Import freetype sources into OpenJDK source tree #709

judovana · 2025-10-28T13:31:44Z

Hi!

I had recently hit an issue with jdk8, which, if build on old system - eg el7, it can not run GUI application on newest system like f42 or similar:

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-jdk8u462.b05-0.ojdk8~u~upstream.hotspot.release.sdk.el7.x86_64.tarxz/jre/lib/amd64/libfontmanager.so: /lib64/libharfbuzz.so.0: undefined symbol: FT_Get_Color_Glyph_Layer

	at sun.awt.X11GraphicsEnvironment.<clinit>(X11GraphicsEnvironment.java:74)

As per investigations the issue is in duality of freetype, and is solved by 8193017: Import freetype sources into OpenJDK source tree

This is fully based on unfinished #318 , with smal lexception of rebase, and docs adaptation. The change in doc/building.html is unluckily done manually, as make update-build-docs is regenerating half of the universum. Is it desired? Is there some recomended version of pandoc to use?

 pandoc --version
pandoc 3.1.11.1
Features: +server +lua
Scripting engine: Lua 5.4

I had tested builds on windows and several linuxes, run full jtregs and checked the GUI works again. I can link full set of tests if needed (actually many of them are still running).

For record, I built by temurin build wrapper, which needed an change to adapt to this: adoptium/temurin-build#4287

Good. The builds passed. I somehow do not see the issue in the tier1. I had run them on many OSes and many platforms, and all looks good.

Noni-ntels may look wilder, but there is no new failure. And they are mostly not running GUI anyway...

Also all the full jtregs finished on all arches x osses I have handy. The com/sun/jdi/oom/OomDebugTest.java#OomDebugTest on f42 seems to be popping up a bit more often then I would like. Will investigate more, but still looks unrelated.

zzambers · 2025-10-29T11:39:23Z

Would be nice to have in-tree freetype as in later jdks

As when person is not careful bundling freetype, it can end up linking against system hafrbuzz (which, in turn, has cyclic dependency on freetype). This may, in better case, fail the build. In worst case, build may seemingly look ok, but cause runtime linking error (in description), when run on newer OS (newer than build one).

For reference, issue and workaround in temurin-build:
issue: adoptium/temurin-build#4159
workaround: adoptium/temurin-build#4238

Also --with-freetype-src on windows does not work with recent freetype versions, due to changes to vcxproj confugrations:

configure: Trying to compile freetype sources with PlatformToolset=v143 to /home/tester/temurinbuild-1756203907/workspace/libs/freetype/lib64/ ...
configure: User specified --with-freetype-src but building freetype failed. (see freetype.log for build results)
configure: error: Consider building freetype manually and using --with-freetype instead.

(and older freetype such as 2.9.1 need to be used)

Are the failing jtregs. Do not seem to be related though

Am also digging in 32windows time-outs, and can not see culprit. @zzambers any ideas?

There are some unstable tests on x86 (32-bit) and probably unrelated to your PR. Segfault in CheckAllocateAndSystemGC.java seems like JDK-8361833 - known issue.

zzambers · 2025-11-05T12:32:06Z

btw. there is also issue with Windows x86 build jobs, where VS2010 installation hangs and jobs get cancelled. I have created PR for that.
