https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D283364 Harald Eilertsen <haraldei-freebsdbugz@anduin.net> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |haraldei-freebsdbugz@anduin | |.net --- Comment #1 from Harald Eilertsen <haraldei-freebsdbugz@anduin.net> --- Did a quick scan through the OpenJDK sources, and found the following: The most important use of /dev/fd is to be able to close any extra file descriptors that for some reason don't have the O_CLOEXEC flag set when a n= ew process is forked. /proc seems to be a bit more involved, and is used by the JVM for some memo= ry management, and determining system characteristics of certain architectures. (PowerPC, s390, at least.) Not sure what impact it has to remove it, but the effects may not immediately be obvious. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
