6722113: CMS: Incorrect overflow handling during precleaning of Reference lists Summary: When we encounter marking stack overflow during precleaning of Reference lists, we were using the overflow list mechanism, which can cause problems on account of mutating the mark word of the header because of conflicts with mutator accesses and updates of that field. Instead we should use the usual mechanism for overflow handling in concurrent phases, namely dirtying of the card on which the overflowed object lies. Since precleaning effectively does a form of discovered list processing, albeit with discovery enabled, we needed to adjust some code to be correct in the face of interleaved processing and discovery.

//     we don't treat it specially (i.e. we scan it as we would
//     a normal oop, treating its references as strong references).
//     This means that references can't be enqueued unless their
//     referent is also in the same span. This is the simplest,
//     most "local" and most conservative approach, albeit one
//     that may cause weak references to be enqueued least promptly.
//     We call this choice the "ReferenceBasedDiscovery" policy.
// #1: the reference object may be in any generation (span), but if
//     the referent is in the generation (span) being currently collected
//     then we can discover the reference object, provided
//     the object has not already been discovered by
//     a different concurrently running collector (as may be the
//     case, for instance, if the reference object is in CMS and
//     the referent in DefNewGeneration), and provided the processing
//     of this reference object by the current collector will
//     appear atomic to every other collector in the system.
//     (Thus, for instance, a concurrent collector may not
//     discover references in other generations even if the
//     referent is in its own generation). This policy may,
//     in certain cases, enqueue references somewhat sooner than
//     might Policy #0 above, but at marginally increased cost
//     and complexity in processing these references.
