Use gmake instead of make on AIX to avoid aqa-tests issue 5542 #5550

Yep, works fine. Asking for reviews and merge. |

This works because on our AIX machines |
|
Remembering that other companies use our scripts and playbooks, and that we must also support command line testing (outside of Jenkins runs), so putting a fix into a Jenkins groovy script does not necessarily resolve the issue for running via command line. EDIT: given this is a case relating to running in parallel in Jenkins, perhaps so. @Haroon-Khel - is that mapping of /usr/bin/gmake to /opt/freeware/bin/make in the AIX playbooks? |
The specific creation of that symlink is not in the playbooks. It might be that it is created during the installation of make

See #5542 (comment) A solution which avoids changing the test scripts is to add PATH=/opt/freeware/bin:$PATH to the jenkins config of our AIX machines. After making this change to test-osuosl-aix72-ppc64-4 and rebuilding its failing sanity system job it looks like it finds the right make https://ci.adoptium.net/job/Test_openjdk21_hs_sanity.system_ppc64_aix/140/console |

Resolves #5542
