Static variables during marking phase of PSParallelCompact

Hello,

I am trying to understand the code of PSParallelCompact. I am having hard time understanding, how are the static variables taken into account during the marking phase? There is no root set taken from the permanent generation, where I thought the static variables reside (inside the class objects). Please correct me and guide through right path.

Thanks,
Lokesh
