Use conservative assumptions of required alignment for the various garbage collector components into account when determining the maximum heap size that supports compressed oops. Using this conservative value avoids several circular dependencies in the calculation.

Removed the HeapRegion::_top_at_conc_mark_count field. It is no longer needed as a result of the changes for 6888336 and 7127706. Refactored the closures that finalize and verify the liveness counting data so that common functionality was placed into a base class.

Revamp of the mechanism that chooses old regions for inclusion in the CSet. It simplifies the code and introduces min and max bounds on the number of old regions added to the CSet at each mixed GC to avoid pathological cases. It also ensures that when we do a mixed GC we'll always find old regions to add to the CSet (i.e., it eliminates the case where a mixed GC will collect no old regions which can happen today).

Remove the separate counting phase of concurrent marking by tracking the amount of marked bytes and the cards spanned by marked objects in marking task/worker thread local data structures, which are updated as individual objects are marked.

This change simplifies the interaction between GC and concurrent marking. By disabling survivor spaces during the initial-mark pause we don't need to propagate marks of objects we copy during each GC (since we never need to copy an explicitly marked object).

7102445: G1: Unnecessary Resource allocations during RSet scanning
Add a new per-worker thread line in the PrintGCDetails output. GC Worker Other is the difference between the elapsed time for the parallel phase of the evacuation pause and the sum of the times of the sub-phases (external root scanning, mark stack scanning, RSet updating, RSet scanning, object copying, and termination) for that worker. During RSet scanning, stack allocate DirtyCardToOopClosure objects; allocating these in a resource area was causing abnormally high GC Worker Other times while the worker thread freed ResourceArea chunks.

G1 now uses two reference processors - one is used by concurrent marking and the other is used by STW GCs (both full and incremental evacuation pauses). In an evacuation pause, the reference processor is embedded into the closures used to scan objects. Doing so causes causes reference objects to be 'discovered' by the reference processor. At the end of the evacuation pause, these discovered reference objects are processed - preserving (and copying) referent objects (and their reachable graphs) as appropriate.

Perform a heap verification after the first phase of G1's full GC using objects' mark words to determine liveness. The third parameter of the heap verification routines, which was used in G1 to determine which marking bitmap to use in liveness calculations, has been changed from a boolean to an enum with values defined for using the mark word, and the 'prev' and 'next' bitmaps.

7042285: G1: native memory leak during humongous object allocation
6804436: G1: heap region indices should be size_t
A series of fixes and improvements to the HeapRegionSeq class: a) replace the _regions growable array with a standard C array, b) avoid de-allocating / re-allocating HeapRegion instances when the heap shrinks / grows (fix for 7042285), c) introduce fast method to map address to HeapRegion via a "biased" array pointer, d) embed the _hrs object in G1CollectedHeap, instead of pointing to it via an indirection, e) assume that all the regions added to the HeapRegionSeq instance are contiguous, f) replace int's with size_t's for indexes (and expand that to HeapRegion as part of 6804436), g) remove unnecessary / unused methods, h) rename a couple of fields (_alloc_search_start and _seq_bottom), i) fix iterate_from() not to always start from index 0 irrespective of the region passed to it, j) add a verification method to check the HeapRegionSeq assumptions, k) always call the wrappers for _hrs.iterate(), _hrs_length(), and _hrs.at() from G1CollectedHeap, not those methods directly, and l) unify the code that expands the sequence (by either re-using or creating a new HeapRegion) and make it robust wrt to a HeapRegion allocation failing.

This changeset removes the zero-filling thread from G1 and collapses the two free region lists we had before (the "free" and "unclean" lists) into one. The new free list uses the new heap region sets / lists abstractions that we'll ultimately use it to keep track of all regions in the heap. A heap region set was also introduced for the humongous regions. Finally, this change increases the concurrency between the thread that completes freeing regions (after a cleanup pause) and the rest of the system (before we'd have to wait for said thread to complete before allocating a new region). The changest also includes a lot of refactoring and code simplification.

There is a race between the concurrent refinement threads and the humongous object allocation that can cause the concurrent refinement threads to corrupt the part of the BOT that it is being initialized by the humongous object allocation operation. The solution is to do the humongous object allocation in careful steps to ensure that the concurrent refinement threads always have a consistent view over the BOT, region contents, and top. The fix includes some very minor tidying up in sparsePRT.
