10 // This file implements lowering for the llvm.gc* intrinsics for targets that do
11 // not natively support them (which includes the C backend). Note that the code
12 // generated is not quite as efficient as algorithms which generate stack maps
13 // to identify roots.
15 // This pass implements the code transformation described in this paper:
16 // "Accurate Garbage Collection in an Uncooperative Environment"
17 // Fergus Henderson, ISMM, 2002
19 // In runtime/GC/SemiSpace.cpp is a prototype runtime which is compatible with
20 // ShadowStackGC.
22 // In order to support this particular transformation, all stack roots are
23 // coallocated in the stack. This allows a fully target-independent stack map
24 // while introducing only minor runtime overhead.
