632 TODO: the after_sweep hook should probably be moved to just before
633 the mark, since that's where the sweep is finished in lazy
636 MDJ 030219 <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>: No, probably not. The
637 original meaning implied at least two things: that it would be
640 1. the freelist is re-initialized (no evaluation possible, though)
644 2. the heap is "fresh"
645 (it is well-defined what data is used and what is not)
647 Neither of these conditions would hold just before the mark phase.
649 Of course, the lazy sweeping has muddled the distinction between
650 scm_before_sweep_c_hook and scm_after_sweep_c_hook, but even if
651 there were no difference, it would still be useful to have two
652 distinct classes of hook functions since this can prevent some
653 bad interference when several modules adds gc hooks.

691 /* {GC Protection Helper Functions}
696 * If within a function you need to protect one or more scheme objects from
697 * garbage collection, pass them as parameters to one of the
698 * scm_remember_upto_here* functions below. These functions don't do
699 * anything, but since the compiler does not know that they are actually
700 * no-ops, it will generate code that calls these functions with the given
701 * parameters. Therefore, you can be sure that the compiler will keep those
702 * scheme values alive (on the stack or in a register) up to the point where
703 * scm_remember_upto_here* is called. In other words, place the call to
704 * scm_remember_upto_here* _behind_ the last code in your function, that
705 * depends on the scheme object to exist.
707 * Example: We want to make sure that the string object str does not get
708 * garbage collected during the execution of 'some_function' in the code
709 * below, because otherwise the characters belonging to str would be freed and
710 * 'some_function' might access freed memory. To make sure that the compiler
711 * keeps str alive on the stack or in a register such that it is visible to
712 * the conservative gc we add the call to scm_remember_upto_here_1 _after_ the
713 * call to 'some_function'. Note that this would not be necessary if str was
714 * used anyway after the call to 'some_function'.
715 * char *chars = scm_i_string_chars (str);
716 * some_function (chars);
717 * scm_remember_upto_here_1 (str); // str will be alive up to this point.
720 /* Remove any macro versions of these while defining the functions.
721 Functions are always included in the library, for upward binary
722 compatibility and in case combinations of GCC and non-GCC are used. */

745 These crazy functions prevent garbage collection
746 of arguments after the first argument by
747 ensuring they remain live throughout the
748 function because they are used in the last
749 line of the code block.
