gc_refs values.
|
|
|
|
Between collections, every gc'ed object has one of two gc_refs values:
|
|
|
|
GC_UNTRACKED
|
|
The initial state; objects returned by PyObject_GC_Malloc are in this
|
|
state. The object doesn't live in any generation list, and its
|
|
tp_traverse slot must not be called.
|
|
|
|
GC_REACHABLE
|
|
The object lives in some generation list, and its tp_traverse is safe to
|
|
call. An object transitions to GC_REACHABLE when PyObject_GC_Track
|
|
is called.
|
|
|
|
During a collection, gc_refs can temporarily take on other states:
|
|
|
|
>= 0
|
|
At the start of a collection, update_refs() copies the true refcount
|
|
to gc_refs, for each object in the generation being collected.
|
|
subtract_refs() then adjusts gc_refs so that it equals the number of
|
|
times an object is referenced directly from outside the generation
|
|
being collected.
|
|
gc_refs remains >= 0 throughout these steps.
|
|
|
|
GC_TENTATIVELY_UNREACHABLE
|
|
move_unreachable() then moves objects not reachable (whether directly or
|
|
indirectly) from outside the generation into an "unreachable" set.
|
|
Objects that are found to be reachable have gc_refs set to GC_REACHABLE
|
|
again. Objects that are found to be unreachable have gc_refs set to
|
|
GC_TENTATIVELY_UNREACHABLE. It's "tentatively" because the pass doing
|
|
this can't be sure until it ends, and GC_TENTATIVELY_UNREACHABLE may
|
|
transition back to GC_REACHABLE.
|
|
|
|
Only objects with GC_TENTATIVELY_UNREACHABLE still set are candidates
|
|
for collection. If it's decided not to collect such an object (e.g.,
|
|
it has a __del__ method), its gc_refs is restored to GC_REACHABLE again.
