|
// GCStrategy coordinates code generation algorithms and implements some itself
|
|
// in order to generate code compatible with a target code generator as
|
|
// specified in a function's 'gc' attribute. Algorithms are enabled by setting
|
|
// flags in a subclass's constructor, and some virtual methods can be
|
|
// overridden.
|
|
//
|
|
// When requested, the GCStrategy will be populated with data about each
|
|
// function which uses it. Specifically:
|
|
//
|
|
// - Safe points
|
|
// Garbage collection is generally only possible at certain points in code.
|
|
// GCStrategy can request that the collector insert such points:
|
|
//
|
|
// - At and after any call to a subroutine
|
|
// - Before returning from the current function
|
|
// - Before backwards branches (loops)
|
|
//
|
|
// - Roots
|
|
// When a reference to a GC-allocated object exists on the stack, it must be
|
|
// stored in an alloca registered with llvm.gcoot.
|
|
//
|
|
// This information can used to emit the metadata tables which are required by
|
|
// the target garbage collector runtime.
