 * Important: allocation provides always zeroed memory, having to do
 * a memset after allocation is deadly for performance.
 * Memory usage at startup is currently as follows:
 * 64 KB pinned space
 * 64 KB internal space
 * size of nursery
 * We should provide a small memory config with half the sizes
 *
 * We currently try to make as few mono assumptions as possible:
 * 1) 2-word header with no GC pointers in it (first vtable, second to store the
 *    forwarding ptr)
 * 2) gc descriptor is the second word in the vtable (first word in the class)
 * 3) 8 byte alignment is the minimum and enough (not true for special structures (SIMD), FIXME)
 * 4) there is a function to get an object's size and the number of
 *    elements in an array.
 * 5) we know the special way bounds are allocated for complex arrays
 * 6) we know about proxies and how to treat them when domains are unloaded
 *
 * Always try to keep stack usage to a minimum: no recursive behaviour
 * and no large stack allocs.
 *
 * General description.
 * Objects are initially allocated in a nursery using a fast bump-pointer technique.
 * When the nursery is full we start a nursery collection: this is performed with a
 * copying GC.
 * When the old generation is full we start a copying GC of the old generation as well:
 * this will be changed to mark&sweep with copying when fragmentation becomes to severe
 * in the future.  Maybe we'll even do both during the same collection like IMMIX.
 *
 * The things that complicate this description are:
 * *) pinned objects: we can't move them so we need to keep track of them
 * *) no precise info of the thread stacks and registers: we need to be able to
 *    quickly find the objects that may be referenced conservatively and pin them
 *    (this makes the first issues more important)
 * *) large objects are too expensive to be dealt with using copying GC: we handle them
 *    with mark/sweep during major collections
 * *) some objects need to not move even if they are small (interned strings, Type handles):
 *    we use mark/sweep for them, too: they are not allocated in the nursery, but inside
 *    PinnedChunks regions
 */

/*
 * TODO:

 *) we could have a function pointer in MonoClass to implement
  customized write barriers for value types

 *) investigate the stuff needed to advance a thread to a GC-safe
  point (single-stepping, read from unmapped memory etc) and implement it.
  This would enable us to inline allocations and write barriers, for example,
  or at least parts of them, like the write barrier checks.
  We may need this also for handling precise info on stacks, even simple things
  as having uninitialized data on the stack and having to wait for the prolog
  to zero it. Not an issue for the last frame that we scan conservatively.
  We could always not trust the value in the slots anyway.

 *) modify the jit to save info about references in stack locations:
  this can be done just for locals as a start, so that at least
  part of the stack is handled precisely.

 *) test/fix endianess issues

 *) Implement a card table as the write barrier instead of remembered
    sets?  Card tables are not easy to implement with our current
    memory layout.  We have several different kinds of major heap
    objects: Small objects in regular blocks, small objects in pinned
    chunks and LOS objects.  If we just have a pointer we have no way
    to tell which kind of object it points into, therefore we cannot
    know where its card table is.  The least we have to do to make
    this happen is to get rid of write barriers for indirect stores.
    (See next item)

 *) Get rid of write barriers for indirect stores.  We can do this by
    telling the GC to wbarrier-register an object once we do an ldloca
    or ldelema on it, and to unregister it once it's not used anymore
    (it can only travel downwards on the stack).  The problem with
    unregistering is that it needs to happen eventually no matter
    what, even if exceptions are thrown, the thread aborts, etc.
    Rodrigo suggested that we could do only the registering part and
    let the collector find out (pessimistically) when it's safe to
    unregister, namely when the stack pointer of the thread that
    registered the object is higher than it was when the registering
    happened.  This might make for a good first implementation to get
    some data on performance.

 *) Some sort of blacklist support?  Blacklists is a concept from the
    Boehm GC: if during a conservative scan we find pointers to an
    area which we might use as heap, we mark that area as unusable, so
    pointer retention by random pinning pointers is reduced.

 *) experiment with max small object size (very small right now - 2kb,
    because it's tied to the max freelist size)

  *) add an option to mmap the whole heap in one chunk: it makes for many
     simplifications in the checks (put the nursery at the top and just use a single
     check for inclusion/exclusion): the issue this has is that on 32 bit systems it's
     not flexible (too much of the address space may be used by default or we can't
     increase the heap as needed) and we'd need a race-free mechanism to return memory
     back to the system (mprotect(PROT_NONE) will still keep the memory allocated if it
     was written to, munmap is needed, but the following mmap may not find the same segment
     free...)

 *) memzero the major fragments after restarting the world and optionally a smaller
    chunk at a time

 *) investigate having fragment zeroing threads

 *) separate locks for finalization and other minor stuff to reduce
    lock contention

 *) try a different copying order to improve memory locality

 *) a thread abort after a store but before the write barrier will
    prevent the write barrier from executing

 *) specialized dynamically generated markers/copiers

 *) Dynamically adjust TLAB size to the number of threads.  If we have
    too many threads that do allocation, we might need smaller TLABs,
    and we might get better performance with larger TLABs if we only
    have a handful of threads.  We could sum up the space left in all
    assigned TLABs and if that's more than some percentage of the
    nursery size, reduce the TLAB size.

 *) Explore placing unreachable objects on unused nursery memory.
        Instead of memset'ng a region to zero, place an int[] covering it.
        A good place to start is add_nursery_frag. The tricky thing here is
        placing those objects atomically outside of a collection.

 *) Allocation should use asymmetric Dekker synchronization:
        http://blogs.oracle.com/dave/resource/Asymmetric-Dekker-Synchronization.txt
        This should help weak consistency archs.
