// 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.
|
|
//
|
|
// GCStrategy is relevant for implementations using either gc.root or
|
|
// gc.statepoint based lowering strategies, but is currently focused mostly on
|
|
// options for gc.root. This will change over time.
|
|
//
|
|
// When requested by a subclass of GCStrategy, the gc.root implementation will
|
|
// populate GCModuleInfo and GCFunctionInfo with that about each Function in
|
|
// the Module that opts in to garbage collection. 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.
|
|
//
|
|
// When used with gc.statepoint, information about safepoint and roots can be
|
|
// found in the binary StackMap section after code generation. Safepoint
|
|
// placement is currently the responsibility of the frontend, though late
|
|
// insertion support is planned. gc.statepoint does not currently support
|
|
// custom stack map formats; such can be generated by parsing the standard
|
|
// stack map section if desired.
|
|
//
|
|
// The read and write barrier support can be used with either implementation.
