/*
* Moving GC Stack Rooting
*
* A moving GC may change the physical location of GC allocated things, even
* when they are rooted, updating all pointers to the thing to refer to its new
* location. The GC must therefore know about all live pointers to a thing,
* not just one of them, in order to behave correctly.
*
* The |Rooted| and |Handle| classes below are used to root stack locations
* whose value may be held live across a call that can trigger GC. For a
* code fragment such as:
*
* JSObject *obj = NewObject(cx);
* DoSomething(cx);
* ... = obj->lastProperty();
*
* If |DoSomething()| can trigger a GC, the stack location of |obj| must be
* rooted to ensure that the GC does not move the JSObject referred to by
* |obj| without updating |obj|'s location itself. This rooting must happen
* regardless of whether there are other roots which ensure that the object
* itself will not be collected.
*
* If |DoSomething()| cannot trigger a GC, and the same holds for all other
* calls made between |obj|'s definitions and its last uses, then no rooting
* is required.
*
* SpiderMonkey can trigger a GC at almost any time and in ways that are not
* always clear. For example, the following innocuous-looking actions can
* cause a GC: allocation of any new GC thing; JSObject::hasProperty;
* JS_ReportError and friends; and ToNumber, among many others. The following
* dangerous-looking actions cannot trigger a GC: js_malloc, cx->malloc_,
* rt->malloc_, and friends and JS_ReportOutOfMemory.
*
* The following family of three classes will exactly root a stack location.
* Incorrect usage of these classes will result in a compile error in almost
* all cases. Therefore, it is very hard to be incorrectly rooted if you use
* these classes exclusively. These classes are all templated on the type T of
* the value being rooted.
*
* - Rooted<T> declares a variable of type T, whose value is always rooted.
* Rooted<T> may be automatically coerced to a Handle<T>, below. Rooted<T>
* should be used whenever a local variable's value may be held live across a
* call which can trigger a GC.
*
* - Handle<T> is a const reference to a Rooted<T>. Functions which take GC
* things or values as arguments and need to root those arguments should
* generally use handles for those arguments and avoid any explicit rooting.
* This has two benefits. First, when several such functions call each other
* then redundant rooting of multiple copies of the GC thing can be avoided.
* Second, if the caller does not pass a rooted value a compile error will be
* generated, which is quicker and easier to fix than when relying on a
* separate rooting analysis.
*
* - MutableHandle<T> is a non-const reference to Rooted<T>. It is used in the
* same way as Handle<T> and includes a |set(const T &v)| method to allow
* updating the value of the referenced Rooted<T>. A MutableHandle<T> can be
* created from a Rooted<T> by using |Rooted<T>::operator&()|.
*
* In some cases the small performance overhead of exact rooting (measured to
* be a few nanoseconds on desktop) is too much. In these cases, try the
* following:
*
* - Move all Rooted<T> above inner loops: this allows you to re-use the root
* on each iteration of the loop.
*
* - Pass Handle<T> through your hot call stack to avoid re-rooting costs at
* every invocation.
*
* The following diagram explains the list of supported, implicit type
* conversions between classes of this family:
*
* Rooted<T> ----> Handle<T>
* | ^
* | |
* | |
* +---> MutableHandle<T>
* (via &)
*
* All of these types have an implicit conversion to raw pointers.
