  Reference Cycle Garbage Collection
  ==================================

  Neil Schemenauer <nas@arctrix.com>

  Based on a post on the python-dev list.  Ideas from Guido van Rossum,
  Eric Tiedemann, and various others.

  http://www.arctrix.com/nas/python/gc/

  The following mailing list threads provide a historical perspective on
  the design of this module.  Note that a fair amount of refinement has
  occurred since those discussions.

  http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2000-March/002385.html

  For a highlevel view of the collection process, read the collect
  function.

/*
_gc_prev values
---------------

Between collections, _gc_prev is used for doubly linked list.

Lowest two bits of _gc_prev are used for flags.
PREV_MASK_COLLECTING is used only while collecting and cleared before GC ends
or _PyObject_GC_UNTRACK() is called.

During a collection, _gc_prev is temporary used for gc_refs, and the gc list
is singly linked until _gc_prev is restored.

gc_refs
    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.

PREV_MASK_COLLECTING
    Objects in generation being collected are marked PREV_MASK_COLLECTING in
    update_refs().


_gc_next values
---------------

_gc_next takes these values:

0
    The object is not tracked

!= 0
    Pointer to the next object in the GC list.
    Additionally, lowest bit is used temporary for
    NEXT_MASK_UNREACHABLE flag described below.

NEXT_MASK_UNREACHABLE
    move_unreachable() then moves objects not reachable (whether directly or
    indirectly) from outside the generation into an "unreachable" set and
    set this flag.

    Objects that are found to be reachable have gc_refs set to 1.
    When this flag is set for the reachable object, the object must be in
    "unreachable" set.
    The flag is unset and the object is moved back to "reachable" set.

    move_legacy_finalizers() will remove this flag from "unreachable" set.
