The OpenJDK but not OracleJDK "all" filters became increasingly complex and now overcharge JBS. Here a prototype for 11.0.20: 11.0.20/all: OpenJDK but not OracleJDK, It is not yet tailored for 11.0.20, as it does not deliver a result at all.  We will omit these in future.

Common jdk11u JBS labels

The above filters exclude issues that are marked with the following labels:

• jdk11u-na Change does not apply to open jdk11u. In general, this is a change done by Oracle for their build or test infrastructure, for their own delivery or in their tests not open sourced. Any other change can also be not of interest to open jdk11u. In the past, we also used label openjdk-na for this purpose.
• jdk11u-jvmci-defer Changes that address jvmci and graal. We, the maintainers, currently do not backport these changes. Feel free to address them!
• jdk11u-solaris-sparc-defer Changes that address the Solaris or sparc ports. We, the maintainers currently do not backport these changes. Feel free to address them!
• jdk11u-a11y-defer Changes that address accessibility. These should be urgently backported.
• jdk11u-nashorn-defer  Changes to the Nashorn java script engine.
• jdk11u-defer-next Change is generally acceptable, but should go into the next JDK 11 update release. I.e. 1710.4 is currently collecting fixes in jdk17u-dev, but the proposed change should get into 11.0.5 (the next release) instead.  The maintainers will clear this label when development of the next release (11.0.5 in the example) is started.
• jdk11u-todo Changes Oracle backported to older releases that are not backported to open jdk11u.  We mostly need this tag to make the "all" filters more efficient.
