Doc Text:
Previously, OpenJDK's FIPS mode would be enabled if it detected that the system crypto policy was set to FIPS. This meant that containers running on a FIPS mode kernel would not enable FIPS mode without the crypto policy being changed. With this update, OpenJDK queries the NSS library as to whether FIPS mode is active or not.
