6631166: CMS: better heuristics when combatting fragmentation Summary: Autonomic per-worker free block cache sizing, tunable coalition policies, fixes to per-size block statistics, retuned gain and bandwidth of some feedback loop filters to allow quicker reactivity to abrupt changes in ambient demand, and other heuristics to reduce fragmentation of the CMS old gen. Also tightened some assertions, including those related to locking. Reviewed-by: jmasa

// In order to preserve oops during garbage collection, they should be
// allocated and passed around via Handles within the VM. A handle is
// simply an extra indirection allocated in a thread local handle area.
//
// A handle is a ValueObj, so it can be passed around as a value, can
// be used as a parameter w/o using &-passing, and can be returned as a
// return value.
//
// oop parameters and return types should be Handles whenever feasible.
//
// Handles are declared in a straight-forward manner, e.g.
//
//   oop obj = ...;
//   Handle h1(obj);              // allocate new handle
//   Handle h2(thread, obj);      // faster allocation when current thread is known
//   Handle h3;                   // declare handle only, no allocation occurs
//   ...
//   h3 = h1;                     // make h3 refer to same indirection as h1
//   oop obj2 = h2();             // get handle value
//   h1->print();                 // invoking operation on oop
//
// Handles are specialized for different oop types to provide extra type
// information and avoid unnecessary casting. For each oop type xxxOop
// there is a corresponding handle called xxxHandle, e.g.
//
//   oop           Handle
//   methodOop     methodHandle
//   instanceOop   instanceHandle
//
// For klassOops, it is often useful to model the Klass hierarchy in order
// to get access to the klass_part without casting. For each xxxKlass there
// is a corresponding handle called xxxKlassHandle, e.g.
//
//   klassOop      Klass           KlassHandle
//   klassOop      methodKlass     methodKlassHandle
//   klassOop      instanceKlass   instanceKlassHandle
