Ivan A. Veselovsky commented on HADOOP-9205:
--------------------------------------------

I observed the problem with Oracle's JDK 1.7.0_10.
The tests are not failing, they just use Java implementation instead of the native one, even if -Pnative profile is enabled.
Links that seem to be relevant there are:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/jdk7-relnotes-418459.html
https://blogs.oracle.com/darcy/entry/purging_ld_library_path
I will investigate if the problem is reproducible with J1.7.0_05.

> Currently the path to native libraries is passed to unit tests via environment variable LD_LIBRARTY_PATH. This is okay for Java6, but does not work for Java7, since Java7 ignores this environment variable.
> So, to run the tests with native implementation on Java7 one needs to pass the paths to native libs via -Djava.library.path system property rather than the LD_LIBRARY_PATH env variable.
> The suggested patch fixes the problem via setting the paths to native libs using both LD_LIBRARY_PATH and -Djava.library.path property. This way the tests work equally on both Java6 and Java7.
