/* Classification of addresses for GC and runtime purposes. */
/* Multicore runtime supports only the "no naked pointers" mode where any
out-of-heap pointers are not observable by the GC. The out-of-heap pointers
are either:
- wrapped in Abstract_tag or Custom_tag objects, or
- have a valid header with colour `NOT_MARKABLE`, or
- made to look like immediate values by tagging the least significant bit so
that the GC does not follow it. This strategy has the downside that
out-of-heap pointers may not point to odd addresses.
A valid value is either:
- a tagged integer (Is_long)
- a pointer to the minor heap
- a pointer to a well-formed block outside the minor heap. It may be in the
major heap, or static data allocated by the OCaml code or the OCaml
runtime, or a foreign pointer.
To create a well-formed block outside the heap that the GC will not scan,
one can use the Caml_out_of_heap_header from mlvalues.h.
