Do a one-step look-ahead, when sweeping free or garbage blocks, to avoid overstepping sweep limit, which may become a non-block-boundary because of a heap expansion delta coalescing with a previously co-terminal free block.

Use _max_num_q = max(discovery_degree, processing_degree), and let balance_queues() redistribute from discovery_degree to processing_degree of queues. This should also allow a more dynamic and flexible parallelism policy in the future.

The recorded _sweep_limit may not necessarily remain a block boundary as the old generation expands during a concurrent cycle. Terminal actions inside the sweep closure need to be aware of this as they cross over the limit.

Deprecated HandlePromotionFailure, removing the ability to turn off that feature, did away with one epoch look-ahead when deciding if a scavenge is likely to fail, relying on current data.

Weakened a too-strong, off-by-one assert; added code to keep track of and report any overflows at appropriate level of verbosity.

GC workers now recognize an intermediate transient state of blocks which are allocated but have not yet completed initialization. blk_start() calls do not attempt to determine the size of a block in the transient state, rather waiting for the block to become initialized so that it is safe to query its size. Audited and ensured the order of initialization of object fields (klass, free bit and size) to respect block state transition protocol. Also included some new assertion checking code enabled in debug mode.

Autonomic per-worker free block cache sizing, tunable coalition policies, fixes to per-size block statistics, retuned gain and bandwidth of some feedback loop filters to allow quicker reactivity to abrupt changes in ambient demand, and other heuristics to reduce fragmentation of the CMS old gen. Also tightened some assertions, including those related to locking.

Avoid overflow list walk in CMS & ParNew when it is unnecessary. Fix a couple of correctness issues, including a C-heap leak, in ParNew at the intersection of promotion failure, work queue overflow and object array chunking. Add stress testing option and related assertion checking.

When we encounter marking stack overflow during precleaning of Reference lists, we were using the overflow list mechanism, which can cause problems on account of mutating the mark word of the header because of conflicts with mutator accesses and updates of that field. Instead we should use the usual mechanism for overflow handling in concurrent phases, namely dirtying of the card on which the overflowed object lies. Since precleaning effectively does a form of discovered list processing, albeit with discovery enabled, we needed to adjust some code to be correct in the face of interleaved processing and discovery.

Construct the relevant CMSIsAliveClosure used by CMS during parallel reference processing with the correct span. It had incorrectly been constructed with an empty span, a regression introduced in 6417901.

The option CMSInitiatingPermOccupancyFraction now controls perm triggering threshold. Even though the actual value of the threshold has not yet been changed, so there is no change in policy, we now have the infrastructure in place for dynamically deciding when to collect the perm gen, an issue that will be addressed in the near future.
