Description
The runtime exit code (os::shutdown, os::abort and os::die) on POSIX platforms is almost identical - Linux has one extra action in os::abort. This code should be shared via os_posix.cpp (note os::exit is already shared via os_posix.inline.hpp).
Comments
Fix Request (16u) Backporting this fix simplifies backporting other fixes in this area. The original bug fix patch applied cleanly except for files os_linux.cpp and os_posix.cpp. But, the resulting hand merge resulted in code very similar to the original fix. After applying the patch to a JDK-16u repo and modifying the appropriate os_<..>.cpp files, the fix was regression tested by running Mach5 tiers 1 and 2 on Linux, Windows, and Mac OS, and running tiers 3-5 on Linux x64.
