Updates to the IBM Java 8 runtime for z/TPF are now available (PJ47072)

By JT Plotzke posted 08/28/23 01:01 PM

  

There are updates made to the IBM® 64-bit Runtime Environment for z/TPF, Java™ Technology Edition, Version 8 to address various product security vulnerabilities.  For more information, see the security bulletin.

There are additional z/TPF updates provided with APAR PJ46945. The following z/TPF-specific changes are included:

  • Fixed JVM monitoring to prevent a hang for standalone Java applications when configured to be turned on across the system.
  • Java 8 runtime recompiled to pickup translation fixes for underlying native calls to strerror_r(), getpwuid_r(), and getgrgid_r().


Download and install the PJ46945_ibm-java-jre-8.0-8.5 package from the z/TPF support for IBM Semeru Runtimes and IBM Java SDK download page. This update, and associated changes made for APAR PJ47072, replaces the runtime environment provided with APAR PJ46945.

For more information about APAR PJ47072, see the APEDIT.
