      Reland of "[heap] Parallel newspace evacuation, semispace copy, and compaction \o/" · 004ce08d
      mlippautz authored 
      This reverts commit 85ba94f2.

All parallelism can be turned off using --predictable, or --noparallel-compaction.

This patch completely parallelizes
 - semispace copy: from space -> to space (within newspace)
 - newspace evacuation: newspace -> oldspace
 - oldspace compaction: oldspace -> oldspace

Previously newspace has been handled sequentially (semispace copy, newspace
evacuation) before compacting oldspace in parallel. However, on a high level
there are no dependencies between those two actions, hence we parallelize them
altogether. We base the number of evacuation tasks on the overall set of
to-be-processed pages (newspace + oldspace compaction pages).

Some low-level details:
 - The hard cap on number of tasks has been lifted
 - We cache store buffer entries locally before merging them back into the global
   StoreBuffer in a finalization phase.
 - We cache AllocationSite operations locally before merging them back into the
   global pretenuring storage in a finalization phase.
 - AllocationSite might be compacted while they would be needed for newspace
   evacuation. To mitigate any problems we defer checking allocation sites for
   newspace till merging locally buffered data.

      [heap] Use HashMap as scratchpad backing store · 55422bdd
      mlippautz authored 
      We use a scratchpad to remember visited allocation sites for post processing
(making tenure decisions). The previous implementation used a rooted FixedArray
with constant length (256) to remember all sites. Updating the scratchpad is a
bottleneck in any parallel/concurrent implementation of newspace evacuation.

The new implementation uses a HashMap with allocation sites as keys and
temporary counts as values. During evacuation we collect a local hashmap of
visited allocation sites. Upon merging the local hashmap back into a global one
we update potential forward pointers of compacted allocation sites.  The
scavenger can directly enter its entries into the global hashmap. Note that the
actual memento found count is still kept on the AllocationSite as it needs to
survive scavenges and full GCs.

Furthermore, each GC invocation can be passed the GC and GCCallback flags. We
usually override the currently set flags upon finishing a GC cylce, but are able
to restore the previously set if desired. This is useful for explicitely
triggered scavenges or external requests that interrupt the current behaviour.

      Remove inline header includes from non-inline headers (1). · 00a07bc1
      mstarzinger authored 
      This tries to remove includes of "-inl.h" headers from normal ".h"
headers, thereby reducing the chance of any cyclic dependencies and
decreasing the average size of our compilation units.

Note that this change still leaves 7 violations of that rule in the
code. However there now is the "tools/check-inline-includes.sh" tool
detecting such violations.

      Add support for Embedded Constant Pools for PPC and Arm · eac7f046
      mbrandy authored 
      Embed constant pools within their corresponding Code
objects.

This removes support for out-of-line constant pools in favor
of the new approach -- the main advantage being that it
eliminates the need to allocate and manage separate constant
pool array objects.

Currently supported on PPC and ARM.  Enabled by default on
PPC only.

This yields a 6% improvment in Octane on PPC64.
