        In modern Linux e.g. Fedora 25, executables are built as DSO for security [1].
        java command in OpenJDK which is provided by distribution is also DSO.
        However, SA does not work with DSO executables.

        Currently, OpenJDK 8 in Fedora25 is built as DSO.
        So I want to contribute this patch to JDK 8 or later release.
