Release Note: JVM May Fail to Initialize on Some cgroups v1 Systems

    • generic
    • linux

      After updating to JDK 8u361, applications failed to start, with multiple Exceptions being thrown, ultimately identified by a `java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException` occurring at `jdk.internal.platform.cgroupv2.CgroupV2Subsystem.initSubsystem`.

      The JVM sometimes failed to initialize on Linux systems where `/proc/self/mountinfo` does not contain any mounted filesystem or controllers for cgroup.
