6684579: SoftReference processing can be made more efficient
Summary: For current soft-ref clearing policies, we can decide at marking time if a soft-reference will definitely not be cleared, postponing the decision of whether it will definitely be cleared to the final reference processing phase. This can be especially beneficial in the case of concurrent collectors where the marking is usually concurrent but reference processing is usually not.

| duke@435 | 3 | |
| duke@435 | 4 | The OpenJDK source code made available by Sun 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 | |
| duke@435 | 13 | As a special exception, Sun gives you permission to link this |
| duke@435 | 14 | OpenJDK Code with certain code licensed by Sun 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 |
| duke@435 | 20 | governed by the licenses under which they were offered by Sun. |
| duke@435 | 21 | |
| duke@435 | 22 | As such, it allows licensees and sublicensees of Sun's GPL2 OpenJDK Code to |
| duke@435 | 23 | build an executable that includes those portions of necessary code that Sun |
| duke@435 | 24 | could not provide under GPL2 (or that Sun 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. |
