7001033: assert(gch->gc_cause() == GCCause::_scavenge_alot || !gch->incremental_collection_failed()) 7002546: regression on SpecJbb2005 on 7b118 comparing to 7b117 on small heaps Summary: Relaxed assertion checking related to incremental_collection_failed flag to allow for ExplicitGCInvokesConcurrent behaviour where we do not want a failing scavenge to bail to a stop-world collection. Parameterized incremental_collection_will_fail() so we can selectively use, or not use, as appropriate, the statistical prediction at specific use sites. This essentially reverts the scavenge bail-out logic to what it was prior to some recent changes that had inadvertently started using the statistical prediction which can be noisy in the presence of bursty loads. Added some associated verbose non-product debugging messages. Reviewed-by: johnc, tonyp

OPENJDK ASSEMBLY EXCEPTION

The OpenJDK source code made available by Oracle at openjdk.java.net and
openjdk.dev.java.net ("OpenJDK Code") is distributed under the terms of the
GNU General Public License <http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html> version 2
only ("GPL2"), with the following clarification and special exception.

    Linking this OpenJDK Code statically or dynamically with other code
    is making a combined work based on this library.  Thus, the terms
    and conditions of GPL2 cover the whole combination.

    As a special exception, Oracle gives you permission to link this
    OpenJDK Code with certain code licensed by Oracle as indicated at
    http://openjdk.java.net/legal/exception-modules-2007-05-08.html
    ("Designated Exception Modules") to produce an executable,
    regardless of the license terms of the Designated Exception Modules,
    and to copy and distribute the resulting executable under GPL2,
    provided that the Designated Exception Modules continue to be
    governed by the licenses under which they were offered by Oracle.

As such, it allows licensees and sublicensees of Oracle's GPL2 OpenJDK Code to
build an executable that includes those portions of necessary code that Oracle
could not provide under GPL2 (or that Oracle has provided under GPL2 with the
Classpath exception).  If you modify or add to the OpenJDK code, that new
GPL2 code may still be combined with Designated Exception Modules if the
new code is made subject to this exception by its copyright holder.
