Re: comment 2: Actually, it looks as if we have to call
stopPromotionTracking in the epilogue. The prologue / epilogue are
called irrespective of the type of GC. So they are also called for
Full GCs which won’t call the method to tear down the lists. I
think it’d be safer to just call stopPromotionTracking() in the
epilogue, as I had it before, with an amended comment?</div>
</blockquote>
<br>
That sounds good. I like the symmetry of putting the
stopPromotionTracking in the epilogue. <br>
<br>
And yes, I'll run some addition tests when the latest patch comes
out.<br>

<span>comment 1 : “this method” refers to the enclosing method
(i.e., par_oop_since_save_marks_iterate_done()). I’ll clarify. (I

<span>comment 2 : You’re right, actually. Good suggestion. I
thought it might be awkward because of the ParNew-CMS interaction
going through the generation abstractions. But in this code I’m
already in the CMS generation and I can access the promoInfo
directly. So I’ll just assert that tracking is off and the list is
empty.</span></div>

<span>I’ll post a new webrev in a bit. FWIW, overnight testing
didn’t reveal any issues (and I’ll run it again given the “stop
tracking” -> “sanity checks” change). Any chance you can also
run some tests when I post the new webrev just in
case?</span></div>

The comment makes clear you intent but is there a simpler and
more direct<br>
sanity check you can use? Comments sometimes get lost in the
fog of code<br>
churn and calling a method just for sanity checkinf seems wasteful
and confusing<br>
(Why is stopTrackingPromotions() call twice? Is there
something that the<br>
first all didn't do? Yes, you comment explains it but I have to
read the comment.)<br>
If you agree you can fix it at a later time. If you disagree,
I'll silently forget about it :-).<br>
