大家也可以看我的博客： openjdk8之编译和debug，这里格式更好。
系统环境为ubuntu 16.04，uname -a:
Linux ddy-Aspire-V5-573G 4.4.0-21-generic #37-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 18 18:33:37 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
在本文中，要编译的openjdk版本为:openjdk-8u40-src-b25-10_feb_2015。
尝试了编译openjdk-8-src-b132-03_mar_2014，但是失败。网上说,因为ubuntu16.04较新，但是该版本的JDK较老，所以失败。
下面说明编译和debug过程。
make版本
OpenJDK8可以使用"config && make"编译构建，不再使用Ant和ALT_ *环境变量来配置构建。
不过需要GNU make 3.81或更新的版本
安装引导JDK
我使用的引导JDK是jdk-7u76-linux-x64。
java version "1.6.0_45"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_45-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.45-b01, mixed mode)
安装编译工具类库：
安装gcc、g++、make等
sudo apt-get install build-essential
安装XRender
sudo apt-get install libxrender-dev
sudo apt-get install xorg-dev
安装alsa
sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev
Cups
sudo apt-get install libcups2-dev
安装零碎的工具包
sudo apt-get install gawk zip libxtst-dev libxi-dev libxt-dev
建立编译脚本
--with-boot-jdk：指定引导JDK所在目录，以防其他安装的JDK影响（本机上以前安装了JDK8，并配置了JAVA_HOME指向JDK8）；
--with-target-bits：指定编译64位系统的JDK；
为可以进行源码调试，再指定下面三个参数：
--with-debug-level=slowdebug：指定可以生成最多的调试信息；
--enable-debug-symbols ZIP_DEBUGINFO_FILES=0：生成调试的符号信息，并且不压缩；
在openjdk目录下新建build.sh，内容如下:
cd openjdk
bash ./configure --with-target-bits=64 --with-boot-jdk=/usr/java/jdk1.7.0_80/ --with-debug-level=slowdebug --enable-debug-symbols ZIP_DEBUGINFO_FILES=0
make all ZIP_DEBUGINFO_FILES=0
编译
执行./build.sh
编译完成是这样的：
用GDB测试是否能debug

openjdk之编译经常出现的问题
openjdk7的编译和debug
编译主要参考：ubuntu14.04 编译openjdk7
debug主要参考：CentOS上编译OpenJDK8源码 以及 在eclipse上调试HotSpot虚拟机源码
