Summary: An evacuation failure while copying the roots caused an object, A, to be forwarded to itself. During the subsequent RSet updating a reference to A was processed causing the reference to be added to the RSet of A's heap region. As a result of adding to the remembered set we ran into the issue described in 6930581 - the sparse table expanded and the RSet scanning code walked the cards in one instance of RHashTable (_cur) while the occupied() counts the cards in the expanded table (_next).

Summary: 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.

6988458: G1: assert(mr.end() <= _cm->finger()) failed: otherwise the region shouldn't be on the stack
Summary: The changes from 6941395 did not clear the CMTask::_aborted_region fields when concurrent marking aborted because of overflow. As a result, the next time around we could see a memory region whose start address was above the global finger and the assertion tripped. Moved the clearing of the aborted regions to ConcurrentMark::clear_marking_state, which is executed on all of the exit paths.

Summary: Under certain circumstances a safepoint could happen between a JavaThread object being created and that object being added to the Java threads list. This could cause the active field of that thread's SATB queue to get out-of-sync with respect to the other Java threads. The solution is to activate the SATB queue, when necessary, before adding the thread to the Java threads list, not when the JavaThread object is created. The changeset also includes a small fix to rename the surrogate locker thread from "Surrogate Locker Thread (CMS)" to "Surrogate Locker Thread (Concurrent GC)" since it's also used in G1.

6930581: G1: assert(ParallelGCThreads > 1 || n_yielded() == _hrrs->occupied(),"Should have yielded all the ..
Summary: During RSet updating, when ParallelGCThreads is zero, references that point into the collection set are added directly the referenced region's RSet. This can cause the sparse table in the RSet to expand. RSet scanning and the "occupied" routine will then operate on different instances of the sparse table causing the assert to trip. This may also cause some cards added post expansion to be missed during RSet scanning. When ParallelGCThreads is non-zero such references are recorded on the "references to be scanned" queue and the card containing the reference is recorded in a dirty card queue for use in the event of an evacuation failure. Employ the parallel code in the serial case to avoid expanding the RSets of regions in the collection set.

Summary: As part of 6944166 we disabled the concept of abandoned pauses (i.e., if the collection set is empty, we would still try to do a pause even if it is to update the RSets and scan the roots). This changeset removes the code and structures associated with abandoned pauses.

Summary: The per-worker _new_refs array is used to hold references that point into the collection set. It is populated during RSet updating and subsequently processed. In the event of an evacuation failure it processed again to recreate the RSets of regions in the collection set. Remove the per-worker _new_refs array by processing the references directly. Use a DirtyCardQueue to hold the cards containing the references so that the RSets of regions in the collection set can be recreated when handling an evacuation failure.

Summary: Calling the methods region_stack_push() and region_stack_pop() concurrent is not MT-safe. The assumption is that we will only call region_stack_push() during a GC pause and region_stack_pop() during marking. Unfortunately, we also call region_stack_push() during marking which seems to be introducing subtle marking failures. This change introduces lock-based methods for pushing / popping to be called during marking.
