Summary: The field G1AllocRegion::_alloc_region needs to be declared volatile as it is used with that intention. Otherwise the compiler may generate the code that reloads the value which might have changed in the meantime, leading to spurious crashes.

Summary: Replace the broken large pages implementation on Linux. New flag: -XX:+UseTransparentHugePages - Linux specific flag to turn on transparent huge page hinting with madvise(..., MAP_HUGETLB). Changed behavior: -XX:+UseLargePages - tries to use -XX:+UseTransparentHugePages before trying other large pages implementations (on Linux). Changed behavior: -XX:+UseHugeTLBFS - Use upfront allocation of Large Pages instead of using the broken implementation to dynamically committing large pages. Changed behavior: -XX:LargePageSizeInBytes - Turned off the ability to use this flag on Linux and provides warning to user if set to a value different than the OS chosen large page size. Changed behavior: Setting no large page size - Now defaults to use -XX:UseTransparentHugePages if the OS supports it. Previously, -XX:+UseHugeTLBFS was chosen if the OS was configured to use large pages.

Summary: Create G1ParGCAllocBufferContainer to contain two buffers instead of previously using one buffer, in order to hold the first priority buffer longer. Thus, when some large objects hits the value of free space left in the first priority buffer it has an alternative to fit in the second priority buffer while the first priority buffer is given more chances to try allocating smaller objects. Overall, it will improve heap space efficiency.

The information presented during VM operation is now relative to the previous output, not always cumulative if G1SummarizeRSetStatsPeriod > 0. At VM exit, the code prints a cumulative summary.
