Erik implemented a few more refactorings and touch-ups, and here is our
final (pending reviews) webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rkennke/8191564/webrev.04/
Compared to webrev.02, it improves the handling of gc-end-message,
avoids dragging the GCMemoryManager through Generation and a few little
related refactorings.
Ok to push now?

After a few more discussions with Erik I made some more changes.
MemoryService is now unaware of the number and meaning of GC memory
managers (minor vs major). This should be better for GCs that don't make
that distinction and/or use more different GCs (e.g. minor,
intermediate, full).
This means that I needed to add some abstractions:
- GCMemoryManager now has gc_end_message() which is used by
GCNotifier::pushNotification().
- gc_begin() and gc_end() methods in MemoryService now accept a
GCMemoryManager* instead of bull full_gc
- Same for TraceMemoryManagerStats
- Generation now knows about the corresponding GCMemoryManager
Please review the full change:

Thanks, Roman
I had some off-band discussions with Erik Helin and re-did most of the
changeset:
- The GC interface now resides in CollectedHeap, specifically the two
methods memory_managers() and memory_pools(), and is implemented in
the various concrete subclasses.
- Both methods return (by value) a GrowableArray<GCMemoryManager*> and
GrowableArray<MemoryPool> respectively. Returning a stack-allocated
GrowableArray seemed least complicated (avoid explicit cleanup of
short-lived array object), and most future-proof, e.g. currently there
is an implicit expectation to get 2 GCMemoryManagers, even though some
GCs don't necessarily have two. The API allows for easy extension of
the situation.

I think this requires reviews from both the GC and Serviceability team.

Currently, there's lots of GC specific code sprinkled over
src/hotspot/share/services. This change introduces a GC interface for
that, and moves all GC specific code to their respective
src/hotspot/share/gc directory.

Testing: hotspot_gc and hotspot_serviceability, none showed regressions
Built minimal and server without regressions
What do you think?
