that phases with small lists return 0 at the first call to 'sweepstep'
2013-09-11 10:24:55 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy d8aa8dd97e objects in list 'tobefnz' have a GC life-cycle like all others
(specifically they are cleaned during sweep phase)
2013-09-11 09:47:48 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 1150873447 'luaC_newobj' does not handle special cases; only special case

Roberto Ierusalimschy 90972ff136 LOCALBLACK changed to LOCALMARK and used also to control whether object

Roberto Ierusalimschy 439d74e29f added 'local' bit (true => object is only refered by local variables) 2013-08-16 15:55:49 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 3679d33b02 barrier conditions rewritten to test first 'isblack' and then 'iswhite'

often than 'iswhite')
2013-08-13 14:36:44 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy 78b941039d change to allow collector to stop when it goes to the atomic phase

2010-05-07 15:19:36 -03:00

(upvalues being cleared) + bug: in 'checkSizes', KGC_EMERGENCY is
stored in 'gckind' field, not in 'gcstate' + current white changes when

Roberto Ierusalimschy 4433dbb5f5 userdata with finalizers are kept in a separated list ('udgc'), instead

Roberto Ierusalimschy 5cb128ea54 BUG: emergency collector might resize 'strt' (string table) when
