I cannot find  endian.h  on my AIX machine.
Maybe it does not exist there, <sys/machine.h>  includes some info on byte order etc. instead .
Not sure if this inclusion is needed at all on AIX.

Hi [~prr] we got the information that Wayland is not supported on AIX, so created https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8351277 to remove pipewire from the AIX build.

jdk17u-dev backport request I would like to have the backport in 17 as well, for parity with Oracle JDK. The backport is clean and low risk.

FWIW I'd be at least a little surprised if Pipewire or Wayland is (ever ?) a thing on AIX. Perhaps none of this code needs to be built / delivered on AIX, but if the easiest thing is to build it then that's OK.
