Remove the G1GCPercent parameter, that specifies the desired GC overhead percentage in G1, and observe the GCTimeRatio parameter instead.

Newly-created threads always had the active field of their SATB queue initialized to false, even if they were created during marking. As a result, updates from threads created during a marking cycle were never enqueued and never processed. The fix includes remaining a method from active() to is_active() for readability and naming consistency.

If CM task was aborted while scanning the last object of the specified region and the size of that object is equal to bitmap's granularity then the next offset would be equal or over the region limit which is exactly what the assertion states.

A TLAB became large enough to be considered a humongous object allowing multiple objects to be allocated in a humongous region, which violates a basic assumption about humongous regions. The changes ensure that TLABs cannot be regarded as humongous.

Implemented block-based work stealing. Moved copying during the rset scanning phase to the main copying phase. Made the size of rset table depend on the region size.

The operations of re-using a RSet component and expanding the same RSet component were not mutually exlusive, and this could lead to RSets getting corrupted and entries being dropped.

G1 now answers "no" to the query can_elide_initializing_store_barrier() in the product build. A debug flag allows alternate behaviour in debug builds.

When enqueuing a completed PtrQueue buffer, cache a local pointer to the buffer and clear the field in the PtrQueue prior to unlocking the mutex referenced by the _lock field and pass the cached local value to the enqueuing routine. This will prevent the same completed buffer being enqueued multiple times, which causes the hang.

Deferred card marks are now flushed during the gc prologue. Parallel[Scavege,OldGC] and SerialGC no longer defer card marks generated by COMPILER2 as a result of ReduceInitialCardMarks. For these cases, introduced a diagnostic option to defer the card marks, only for the purposes of testing and diagnostics. CMS and G1 continue to defer card marks. Potential performance concern related to single-threaded flushing of deferred card marks in the gc prologue will be addressed in the future.

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.

Fixes a race on the dirty card queue completed buffer list between worker thread(s) performing a flush of a deferred store barrier (enqueueing a newly completed buffer) and worker thread(s) in the RSet updating code claiming completed buffers. Removed the routine that removes elements from the completed update buffer queue using a CAS.

ScavengeALot now causes an incremental (but possibly partially young, in the G1 sense) collection. Some such collections may be abandoned on account of MMU specs. Band-aided a native leak associated with abandoned pauses, as well as an MMU tracker overflow related to frequent scavenge events in the face of a large MMU denominator interval; the latter is protected by a product flag that defaults to false.

The fix addresses two memory leaks in G1 code: (1) _evac_failure_scan_stack - a resource object allocated on the C heap was not freed; (2) RSHashTable were linked into deleted list which was only cleared at full GC.

It tidies up the G1 heap verification a bit. In particular, when the verification is done in parallel and there is a failure, this is propagated to the top level and the heap is dumped at the end, not by every thread that encounters a failure.
