6912621: iCMS: Error: assert(_markBitMap.isMarked(addr + 1),"Missing Printezis bit?") Summary: Fix block_size_if_printezis_bits() so it does not expect the bits, only uses them when available. Fix block_size_no_stall() so it does not stall when the bits are missing such cases, letting the caller deal with zero size returns. Constant pool cache oops do not need to be unparsable or conc_unsafe after their klass pointer is installed. Some cosmetic clean-ups and some assertion checking for conc-usafety which, in the presence of class file redefinition, has no a-priori time boundedness, so all GCs must be able to safely deal with putatively conc-unsafe objects in a stop-world pause.

OPENJDK ASSEMBLY EXCEPTION

The OpenJDK source code made available by Sun 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, Sun gives you permission to link this
    OpenJDK Code with certain code licensed by Sun 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 Sun.

As such, it allows licensees and sublicensees of Sun's GPL2 OpenJDK Code to
build an executable that includes those portions of necessary code that Sun
could not provide under GPL2 (or that Sun 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.
