The goal of this project is to provide a full-featured and certifiable Linux/s390x port of OpenJDK in the main OpenJDK development branch. Once this is achieved, this project will maintain the port in the head repository and all releases in maintenance.
Ongoing work
IBM is maintaining the port in jdk/jdk, jdk21u, jdk17u, jdk11u and further new releases.
Contributions
Contributions to the port are always welcome. We maintain some issues in the OpenJDK Jira, feel free to address any of these:
