- =head1 CV reference counts and CvOUTSIDE

- =for apidoc m|bool|CvWEAKOUTSIDE|CV *cv
-
- Each CV has a pointer, C<CvOUTSIDE()>, to its lexically enclosing
- CV (if any). Because pointers to anonymous sub prototypes are
- stored in C<&> pad slots, it is a possible to get a circular reference,
- with the parent pointing to the child and vice-versa. To avoid the
- ensuing memory leak, we do not increment the reference count of the CV
- pointed to by C<CvOUTSIDE> in the I<one specific instance> that the parent
- has a C<&> pad slot pointing back to us. In this case, we set the
- C<CvWEAKOUTSIDE> flag in the child. This allows us to determine under what
- circumstances we should decrement the refcount of the parent when freeing
- the child.
-
- There is a further complication with non-closure anonymous subs (ie those
- that do not refer to any lexicals outside that sub). In this case, the
- anonymous prototype is shared rather than being cloned. This has the
- consequence that the parent may be freed while there are still active
- children, eg
-
- BEGIN { $a = sub { eval '$x' } }
-
- In this case, the BEGIN is freed immediately after execution since there
- are no active references to it: the anon sub prototype has
- C<CvWEAKOUTSIDE> set since it's not a closure, and $a points to the same
- CV, so it doesn't contribute to BEGIN's refcount either. When $a is
- executed, the C<eval '$x'> causes the chain of C<CvOUTSIDE>s to be followed,
- and the freed BEGIN is accessed.
-
- To avoid this, whenever a CV and its associated pad is freed, any
- C<&> entries in the pad are explicitly removed from the pad, and if the
- refcount of the pointed-to anon sub is still positive, then that
- child's C<CvOUTSIDE> is set to point to its grandparent. This will only
- occur in the single specific case of a non-closure anon prototype
- having one or more active references (such as C<$a> above).
-
- One other thing to consider is that a CV may be merely undefined
- rather than freed, eg C<undef &foo>. In this case, its refcount may
- not have reached zero, but we still delete its pad and its C<CvROOT> etc.
- Since various children may still have their C<CvOUTSIDE> pointing at this
- undefined CV, we keep its own C<CvOUTSIDE> for the time being, so that
- the chain of lexical scopes is unbroken. For example, the following
- should print 123:
-
- my $x = 123;
- sub tmp { sub { eval '$x' } }
- my $a = tmp();
- undef &tmp;
- print $a->();
