Some changes may have been backported +to earlier releases following their first appearance in OpenJDK 12 +through to 17. + +NEW FEATURES +============ + +Language Features +================= + +Switch Expressions +================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/325 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/354 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/361 + +Extend the `switch` statement so that it can be used as either a +statement or an expression, and that both forms can use either a +"traditional" or "simplified" scoping and control flow behavior. Both +forms can use either traditional `case ... :` labels (with fall +through) or new `case ... ->` labels (with no fall through), with a +further new statement for yielding a value from a `switch` +expression. These changes will simplify everyday coding, and also +prepare the way for the use of pattern matching in `switch`. + +This was a preview feature (http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/12) in +OpenJDK 12 & 13 and became final in OpenJDK 14. + +Text Blocks +=========== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/355 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/368 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/378 + +Add text blocks to the Java language. A text block is a multi-line +string literal that avoids the need for most escape sequences, +automatically formats the string in a predictable way, and gives the +developer control over format when desired. + +This was a preview feature (http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/12) in +OpenJDK 13 & 14 and became final in OpenJDK 15. + +Pattern Matching for instanceof +=============================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/305 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/375 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/394 +http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~briangoetz/amber/pattern-match.html + +Enhance the Java programming language with pattern matching for the +`instanceof` operator. Pattern matching allows common logic in a +program, namely the conditional extraction of components from objects, +to be expressed more concisely and safely. + +This was a preview feature (http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/12) in +OpenJDK 14 & 15 and became final in OpenJDK 16. + +Records +======= +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/359 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/384 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/395 + +Enhance the Java programming language with records. Records provide a +compact syntax for declaring classes which are transparent holders for +shallowly immutable data. + +This was a preview feature (http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/12) in +OpenJDK 14 & 15 and became final in OpenJDK 16. + +Sealed Classes +============== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/360 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/397 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/409 +https://cr.openjdk.java.net/~briangoetz/amber/datum.html + +Enhance the Java programming language with sealed classes and +interfaces. Sealed classes and interfaces restrict which other classes +or interfaces may extend or implement them. + +This was a preview feature (http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/12) in +OpenJDK 15 & 16 and became final in OpenJDK 17. + +Restore Always-Strict Floating-Point Semantics +============================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/306 + +Make floating-point operations consistently strict, rather than have +both strict floating-point semantics (`strictfp`) and subtly different +default floating-point semantics. This will restore the original +floating-point semantics to the language and VM, matching the +semantics before the introduction of strict and default floating-point +modes in Java SE 1.2. + +Pattern Matching for switch =========================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/406 -core-libs/java.time: +Enhance the Java programming language with pattern matching for +`switch` expressions and statements, along with extensions to the +language of patterns. Extending pattern matching to `switch` allows an +expression to be tested against a number of patterns, each with a +specific action, so that complex data-oriented queries can be +expressed concisely and safely. -JDK-8254177: US/Pacific-New Zone name removed as part of tzdata2020b -==================================================================== -Following JDK's update to tzdata2020b, the long-obsolete files -pacificnew and systemv have been removed. As a result, the -"US/Pacific-New" zone name declared in the pacificnew data file is no -longer available for use. +This is a preview feature (http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/12) in OpenJDK +17. -Information regarding the update can be viewed at -https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz-announce/2020-October/000059.html +Library Features +================ -New in release OpenJDK 15.0.1 (2020-10-20): -=========================================== -Live versions of these release notes can be found at: - * https://builds.shipilev.net/backports-monitor/release-notes-15.0.1.txt - -* Security fixes - - JDK-8233624: Enhance JNI linkage - - JDK-8236196: Improve string pooling - - JDK-8236862, CVE-2020-14779: Enhance support of Proxy class - - JDK-8237990, CVE-2020-14781: Enhanced LDAP contexts - - JDK-8237995, CVE-2020-14782: Enhance certificate processing - - JDK-8240124: Better VM Interning - - JDK-8241114, CVE-2020-14792: Better range handling - - JDK-8242680, CVE-2020-14796: Improved URI Support - - JDK-8242685, CVE-2020-14797: Better Path Validation - - JDK-8242695, CVE-2020-14798: Enhanced buffer support - - JDK-8243302: Advanced class supports - - JDK-8244136, CVE-2020-14803: Improved Buffer supports - - JDK-8244479: Further constrain certificates - - JDK-8244955: Additional Fix for JDK-8240124 - - JDK-8245407: Enhance zoning of times - - JDK-8245412: Better class definitions - - JDK-8245417: Improve certificate chain handling - - JDK-8248574: Improve jpeg processing - - JDK-8249927: Specify limits of jdk.serialProxyInterfaceLimit - - JDK-8253019: Enhanced JPEG decoding -* Other changes - - JDK-8232114: JVM crashed at imjpapi.dll in native code - - JDK-8243470: [macos] bring back O2 opt level for unsafe.cpp - - JDK-8247251: Assert '(_pcs_length == 0 || last_pc()->pc_offset() < pc_offset) failed: must specify a new, larger pc offset' failure - - JDK-8248495: [macos] zerovm is broken due to libffi headers location - - JDK-8248745: Add jarsigner and keytool tests for restricted algorithms - - JDK-8249165: Remove unneeded nops introduced by 8234160 changes - - JDK-8249183: JVM crash in "AwtFrame::WmSize" method - - JDK-8249266: Bump release strings for JDK 15.0.1 - - JDK-8249266: Change jdk 15.0.1 milestone to fcs for build b02 - - JDK-8250612: jvmciCompilerToVM.cpp declares jio_printf with "void" return type, should be "int" - - JDK-8250665: Wrong translation for the month name of May in ar_JO,LB,SY - - JDK-8250861: Crash in MinINode::Ideal(PhaseGVN*, bool) - - JDK-8250876: Fix issues with cross-compile on macos - - JDK-8250928: JFR: Improve hash algorithm for stack traces - - JDK-8251359: Shenandoah: filter null oops before calling enqueue/SATB barrier - - JDK-8251458: Parse::do_lookupswitch fails with "assert(_cnt >= 0) failed" - - JDK-8251859: sun/security/validator/PKIXValAndRevCheckTests.java fails - - JDK-8251910: Shenandoah: Handshake threads between weak-roots and reset phases - - JDK-8252120: compiler/oracle/TestCompileCommand.java misspells "occured" - - JDK-8252292: 8240795 may cause anti-dependence to be missed - - JDK-8252359: HotSpot Not Identifying it is Running in a Container - - JDK-8252367: Undo JDK-8245000: Windows GDI functions don't support large pages - - JDK-8252368: Undo JDK-8245002: Windows GDI functions don't support NUMA interleaving - - JDK-8252470: java/awt/dnd/DisposeFrameOnDragCrash/DisposeFrameOnDragTest.java fails on Windows - - JDK-8252660: Shenandoah: support manageable SoftMaxHeapSize option - - JDK-8252754: Hash code calculation of JfrStackTrace is inconsistent - - JDK-8253222: Shenandoah: unused AlwaysTrueClosure after JDK-8246591 - - JDK-8253224: Shenandoah: ShenandoahStrDedupQueue destructor calls virtual num_queues() - - JDK-8253226: Shenandoah: remove unimplemented ShenandoahStrDedupQueue::verify - - JDK-8253284: Zero OrderAccess barrier mappings are incorrect - - JDK-8253714: [cgroups v2] Soft memory limit incorrectly using memory.high - - JDK-8253727: [cgroups v2] Memory and swap limits reported incorrectly - - JDK-8253778: ShenandoahSafepoint::is_at_shenandoah_safepoint should not access VMThread state from other threads - - JDK-8254144: Non-x86 Zero builds fail with return-type warning in os_linux_zero.cpp - - JDK-8254560: Shenandoah: Concurrent Strong Roots logging is incorrect - -Notes on individual issues: +JVM Constants API +================= +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/334 + +Introduce an API to model nominal descriptions of key class-file and +run-time artifacts, in particular constants that are loadable from the +constant pool. + +Reimplement the Legacy Socket API +================================= +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/353 + +Replace the underlying implementation used by the `java.net.Socket` +and `java.net.ServerSocket` APIs with a simpler and more modern +implementation that is easy to maintain and debug. The new +implementation will be easy to adapt to work with user-mode threads, +a.k.a. fibers, currently being explored in Project Loom +(https://openjdk.java.net/projects/loom). + +JFR Event Streaming +=================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/349 + +Expose JDK Flight Recorder data for continuous monitoring. + +Non-Volatile Mapped Byte Buffers +================================ +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/352 + +Add new JDK-specific file mapping modes so that the `FileChannel` API +can be used to create `MappedByteBuffer` instances that refer to +non-volatile memory. + +Helpful NullPointerExceptions +============================= +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/358 + +Improve the usability of `NullPointerException`s generated by the JVM +by describing precisely which variable was `null`. + +Foreign-Memory Access API +========================= +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/370 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/383 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/393 + +Introduce an API to allow Java programs to safely and efficiently +access foreign memory outside of the Java heap. + +This was a incubation feature (https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/11) in +OpenJDK 14, 15 & 16, now superseded by the Foreign Function & Memory +API in OpenJDK 17 (see below). + +Edwards-Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) +================================================= +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/339 + +Implement cryptographic signatures using the Edwards-Curve Digital +Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) as described by RFC 8032 +(https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8032). + +Hidden Classes +============== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/371 + +Introduce hidden classes, which are classes that cannot be used +directly by the bytecode of other classes. Hidden classes are intended +for use by frameworks that generate classes at run time and use them +indirectly, via reflection. A hidden class may be defined as a member +of an access control nest (https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/181), and may +be unloaded independently of other classes. + +Reimplement the Legacy DatagramSocket API +========================================= +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/373 + +Replace the underlying implementations of the +`java.net.DatagramSocket` and `java.net.MulticastSocket` APIs with +simpler and more modern implementations that are easy to maintain and +debug. The new implementations will be easy to adapt to work with +virtual threads, currently being explored in Project Loom +(https://openjdk.java.net/projects/loom). This is a follow-on to JEP +353 (see above), which already reimplemented the legacy Socket API. + +Vector API +========== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/338 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/414 + +Provide an initial iteration of an incubator module, +`jdk.incubator.vector`, to express vector computations that reliably +compile at runtime to optimal vector hardware instructions on +supported CPU architectures and thus achieve superior performance to +equivalent scalar computations. + +This is an incubation feature (https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/11) +introduced in OpenJDK 16. + +Unix-Domain Socket Channels +=========================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/380 + +Add Unix-domain (`AF_UNIX`) socket support to the socket channel and +server-socket channel APIs in the `java.nio.channels` package. Extend +the inherited channel mechanism to support Unix-domain socket channels +and server socket channels. + +Foreign Linker API (Incubator) +============================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/389 + +Introduce an API that offers statically-typed, pure-Java access to +native code. This API, together with the Foreign-Memory API (see +above), will considerably simplify the otherwise error-prone process +of binding to a native library. + +This was an incubation feature (https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/11) +introduced in OpenJDK 16, now superseded by the Foreign Function & +Memory API in OpenJDK 17 (see below). + +Strongly Encapsulate JDK Internals by Default +============================================= +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/396 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/403 + +Strongly encapsulate all internal elements of the JDK by default, +except for critical internal APIs such as `sun.misc.Unsafe`. It will +no longer be possible to relax the strong encapsulation of internal +elements via a single command-line option, as was possible in OpenJDK +9 through 16. + +Enhanced Pseudo-Random Number Generators +======================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/356 + +Provide new interface types and implementations for pseudo-random +number generators (PRNGs), including jumpable PRNGs and an additional +class of splittable PRNG algorithms (LXM). + +Foreign Function & Memory API +============================= +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/412 + +Introduce an API by which Java programs can interoperate with code and +data outside of the Java runtime. By efficiently invoking foreign +functions (i.e., code outside the JVM), and by safely accessing +foreign memory (i.e., memory not managed by the JVM), the API enables +Java programs to call native libraries and process native data without +the brittleness and danger of JNI. + +This API is an incubation feature (https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/11) +introduced in OpenJDK 17, and is an evolution of the Foreign Memory +Access API (OpenJDK 14 through 16) and Foreign Linker API (OpenJDK +16) (see above). + +Context-Specific Deserialization Filters +======================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/415 + +Allow applications to configure context-specific and +dynamically-selected deserialization filters via a JVM-wide filter +factory that is invoked to select a filter for each individual +deserialization operation. + +Tools +===== + +Packaging Tool +============== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/343 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/392 + +Provide the `jpackage` tool, for packaging self-contained Java +applications. + +JVM Features +============ + +Shenandoah: A Low-Pause-Time Garbage Collector +============================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/189 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/379 + +Add a new garbage collection (GC) algorithm named Shenandoah which +reduces GC pause times by doing evacuation work concurrently with the +running Java threads. Pause times with Shenandoah are independent of +heap size, meaning you will have the same consistent pause times +whether your heap is 200 MB or 200 GB. + +Shenandoah has been provided in Red Hat builds of OpenJDK 8 since +8u131 in April 2017 and in all 11u builds. + +Upstream, it was introduced in OpenJDK 12 as an experimental feature +and became a production feature in OpenJDK 15. It was backported to +OpenJDK 11 with the 11.0.9 release in October 2020. + +Abortable Mixed Collections for G1 +================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/344 + +Make G1 mixed collections abortable if they might exceed the pause +target. + +Promptly Return Unused Committed Memory from G1 +=============================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/346 + +Enhance the G1 garbage collector to automatically return Java heap +memory to the operating system when idle. + +Dynamic CDS Archives +==================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/310 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/350 + +Extend application class-data sharing to allow the dynamic archiving +of classes at the end of Java application execution. The archived +classes will include all loaded application classes and library +classes that are not present in the default, base-layer CDS archive. + +ZGC: Uncommit Unused Memory (Experimental) +========================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/351 + +Enhance ZGC to return unused heap memory to the operating system. + +NUMA-Aware Memory Allocation for G1 +=================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/345 + +Improve G1 performance on large machines by implementing NUMA-aware +memory allocation. + +ZGC on macOS (Experimental) =========================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/364 + +Port the ZGC garbage collector to macOS. + +ZGC on Windows (Experimental) +============================= +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/365 + +Port the ZGC garbage collector to Windows. + +ZGC: A Scalable Low-Latency Garbage Collector (Production) +========================================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/377 + +Change the Z Garbage Collector from an experimental feature into a +product feature. + +ZGC: Concurrent Thread-Stack Processing +======================================= +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/376 + +Move ZGC thread-stack processing from safepoints to a concurrent +phase. -security-libs/java.security: +Elastic Metaspace +================= +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/387 -JDK-8250756: Added Entrust Root Certification Authority - G4 certificate -======================================================================== -The Entrust root certificate has been added to the cacerts truststore: +Return unused HotSpot class-metadata (i.e., metaspace) memory to the +operating system more promptly, reduce metaspace footprint, and +simplify the metaspace code in order to reduce maintenance costs. -Alias Name: entrustrootcag4 -Distinguished Name: CN=Entrust Root Certification Authority - G4, OU="(c) 2015 Entrust, Inc. - for authorized use only", OU=See www.entrust.net/legal-terms, O="Entrust, Inc.", C=US +Ports +===== -JDK-8250860: Added 3 SSL Corporation Root CA Certificates +Alpine Linux Port +================= +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/386 + +Port the JDK to Alpine Linux, and to other Linux distributions that +use musl as their primary C library, on both the x64 and AArch64 +architectures, + +Windows/AArch64 Port +==================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/388 + +Port the JDK to Windows/AArch64. + +New macOS Rendering Pipeline +============================ +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/382 + +Implement a Java 2D internal rendering pipeline for macOS using the +Apple Metal API as alternative to the existing pipeline, which uses +the deprecated Apple OpenGL API. + +macOS/AArch64 Port +================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/391 + +Port the JDK to macOS/AArch64. + +DEPRECATIONS +============ + +Deprecate the ParallelScavenge + SerialOld GC Combination ========================================================= -The following root certificates have been added to the cacerts truststore for the SSL Corporation: +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/366 + +Deprecate the combination of the Parallel Scavenge and Serial Old +garbage collection algorithms. + +Deprecate and Disable Biased Locking +==================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/374 + +Disable biased locking by default, and deprecate all related +command-line options. + +Warnings for Value-Based Classes +================================ +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/390 + +Designate the primitive wrapper classes as value-based and deprecate +their constructors for removal, prompting new deprecation +warnings. Provide warnings about improper attempts to synchronize on +instances of any value-based classes in the Java Platform. + +Deprecate the Applet API for Removal +==================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/398 + +Deprecate the Applet API for removal. It is essentially irrelevant +since all web-browser vendors have either removed support for Java +browser plug-ins or announced plans to do so. + +Deprecate the Security Manager for Removal +========================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/411 + +Deprecate the Security Manager for removal in a future release. The +Security Manager dates from Java 1.0. It has not been the primary +means of securing client-side Java code for many years, and it has +rarely been used to secure server-side code. To move Java forward, we +intend to deprecate the Security Manager for removal in concert with +the legacy Applet API (see above). . + +REMOVALS +======== + +Remove the Concurrent Mark Sweep (CMS) Garbage Collector +======================================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/363 + +Remove the Concurrent Mark Sweep (CMS) garbage collector. + +Remove the Pack200 Tools and API +================================ +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/336 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/367 + +Remove the `pack200` and `unpack200` tools, and the `Pack200` API in +the `java.util.jar` package. These tools and API were deprecated for +removal in OpenJDK 11 with the express intent to remove them in a +future release. + +Remove the Nashorn JavaScript Engine +==================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/372 + +Remove the Nashorn JavaScript script engine and APIs, and the `jjs` +tool. The engine, the APIs, and the tool were deprecated for removal +in OpenJDK 11 with the express intent to remove them in a future +release. + +Remove the Solaris and SPARC Ports +================================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/362 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/381 + +Remove the source code and build support for the Solaris/SPARC, +Solaris/x64, and Linux/SPARC ports. These ports were deprecated for +removal in OpenJDK 14 (JEP 362) and removed in OpenJDK 15 (JEP 381). + +Remove RMI Activation +===================== +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/385 +https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/407 +https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/14/docs/specs/rmi/activation.html -Alias Name: sslrootrsaca -Distinguished Name: CN=SSL.com Root Certification Authority RSA, O=SSL Corporation, L=Houston, ST=Texas, C=US +Remove the Remote Method Invocation (RMI) Activation mechanism, while +preserving the rest of RMI.
