Remove the lib/$ARCH directory from Linux and Solaris images

        Details

        • Subcomponent:
        • Resolved In Build:
          b150
        • OS:
          linux, solaris

          Description

          The lib/$ARCH directory is present only in Linux and Solaris images.
          It contains native-code shared objects (.so files) for the VM and the
          libraries. It's a vestigial remnant of images that could support
          multiple CPU architectures, which is no longer a requirement; on Mac
          OS and Windows such files have always been placed directly in the
          `lib` directory.

          Let's simplify things: Move all the content of lib/$ARCH up one
          level in Linux and Solaris images, and then remove lib/$ARCH.

              This fix breaks deployment and JavaFX applications on Linux. I filed JDK-8171450 to track this new failure.

              We temporarily fixed JavaFX applications by delivering the .so files both in lib/ and in lib/$ARCH. See JDK-8171450.

              I filed a follow-on bug to remove these files from lib/$ARCH, JDK-8171674. Until that bug is fixed, the lib/$ARCH directory will still be present and contain .so files, but they will be unused.
