A referent object that is only weakly reachable at the start of concurrent marking but is re-attached to the strongly reachable object graph during marking may not be marked as live. This can cause the reference object to be processed prematurely and leave dangling pointers to the referent object. Implement a read barrier for the java.lang.ref.Reference::referent field by intrinsifying the Reference.get() method, and intercepting accesses though JNI, reflection, and Unsafe, so that when a non-null referent object is read it is also logged in an SATB buffer.

With 7033154 we started calling c2 arraycopy stubs from c1. On sparcv9 we must clear the upper 32bits for offset (src_pos, dst_pos) and length parameters when calling them.

7000125: CMS: Anti-monotone young gen sizing with respect to maximum whole heap size specification
7027529: CMS: retire CMSUseOldDefaults flag
Simplify CMS heap sizing code, relying on ergonomic initial sizing consistent with other collectors for the most part, controlling only young gen sizing to rein in pause times. Make CMS young gen sizing default statically cpu-dependant. Remove inconsistencies wrt generation sizing and policy code, allowing for the fixing for 6627787 and 7000125. For 7027529, retire the flag CMSUseOldDefaults which had been introduced as a bridge from JDK 5 to JDK 6 a number of years ago.

Bulk zeroing reduction didn't work with G1, because arraycopy would call pre-barriers on uninitialized oops. The solution is to have version of arraycopy stubs that don't have pre-barriers. Also refactored arraycopy stubs generation on SPARC to be more readable and reduced the number of stubs necessary in some cases.

Copy small (<8) strings on stack if str+16 crosses a page boundary and load from stack into XMM. Back up pointer when loading string's tail.

Rearranged the pre-barrier placement in arraycopy stubs so that they are properly called in case of chained calls. Also refactored the code a little bit so that it looks uniform across the platforms and is more readable.

Add option for gcc 4 and above, define JNIEXPORT and JNIIMPORT to visibility=default, add for jio_snprintf and others since -fvisibility=hidden overrides --version-script definitions.

With recent G1 allocation path changes, the value of StackShadowPages in fast debug builds of the JVM, is no longer large enough to prevent the JVM C++ code from touching the stack guard pages. Increase the value of StackShadowPages to a suitable value.
