7014261: G1: RSet-related failures
Summary: A race between the concurrent cleanup thread and the VM thread while it is processing the "expanded sparse table list" causes both threads to try to free the same sparse table entry and either causes one of the threads to fail or leaves the entry in an inconsistent state. The solution is purge all entries on the expanded list that correspond go regions that are being cleaned up.

duke@435 2 OPENJDK ASSEMBLY EXCEPTION
duke@435 3
trims@1907 4 The OpenJDK source code made available by Oracle at openjdk.java.net and
duke@435 5 openjdk.dev.java.net ("OpenJDK Code") is distributed under the terms of the
duke@435 6 GNU General Public License <http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html> version 2
duke@435 7 only ("GPL2"), with the following clarification and special exception.
duke@435 8
duke@435 9 Linking this OpenJDK Code statically or dynamically with other code
duke@435 10 is making a combined work based on this library. Thus, the terms
duke@435 11 and conditions of GPL2 cover the whole combination.
duke@435 12
trims@1907 13 As a special exception, Oracle gives you permission to link this
trims@1907 14 OpenJDK Code with certain code licensed by Oracle as indicated at
duke@435 15 http://openjdk.java.net/legal/exception-modules-2007-05-08.html
duke@435 16 ("Designated Exception Modules") to produce an executable,
duke@435 17 regardless of the license terms of the Designated Exception Modules,
duke@435 18 and to copy and distribute the resulting executable under GPL2,
duke@435 19 provided that the Designated Exception Modules continue to be
trims@1907 20 governed by the licenses under which they were offered by Oracle.
duke@435 21
trims@1907 22 As such, it allows licensees and sublicensees of Oracle's GPL2 OpenJDK Code to
trims@1907 23 build an executable that includes those portions of necessary code that Oracle
trims@1907 24 could not provide under GPL2 (or that Oracle has provided under GPL2 with the
duke@435 25 Classpath exception). If you modify or add to the OpenJDK code, that new
duke@435 26 GPL2 code may still be combined with Designated Exception Modules if the
duke@435 27 new code is made subject to this exception by its copyright holder.
