Unfortunately, with the fix for:
7050392: G1: Introduce flag to generate a log of the G1 ergonomic decisions
I accidentally broke the policy that decides how many old regions to add to the CSet when the young gen is fixed. The original code was:
should_continue =
( hr != NULL) &&
( (adaptive_young_list_length()) ? time_remaining_ms > 0.0
: _collection_set_size < _young_list_fixed_length );
In the fix for 7050392 I refactored it to be able to emit the correct ergo policy output:
should_continue = true;
if (hr == NULL) {
// No need for an ergo verbose message here,
// getNextMarkRegion() does this when it returns NULL.
should_continue = false;
} else {
if (adaptive_young_list_length()) {
if (time_remaining_ms < 0.0) {
ergo_verbose1(ErgoCSetConstruction, ...);
should_continue = false;
}
} else {
if (_collection_set_size < _young_list_fixed_length) {
ergo_verbose2(ErgoCSetConstruction, ...);
should_continue = false;
}
}
}
and unfortunately I didn't negate the _collection_set_size < _young_list_fixed_length condition. The intention of this code is: if hr != NULL (which means: we've just found and added an old region to the CSet) and !adaptive_young_list_length() (which means: the young gen size is fixed), we should carry on adding old regions to the CSet until the CSet length (_collection_set_size) reaches the fixed young list target length (_young_list_fixed_length). So, should_continue should be set to false when _collection_set size >= _young_list_fixed_length, not when _collection_set_size < _young_list_fixed_length.
As is, the code can do the wrong thing in a couple of ways:
- Only add a single old region to the CSet and exit (even though we can add many more).
- If the young length is too small and there's space for only one old region, we'll reach the target after adding a single old region to the CSet and we'll then end up adding the remaining old regions irrespective of how long the CSet will be.
