134=head1 CV reference counts and CvOUTSIDE
135
136=for apidoc m|bool|CvWEAKOUTSIDE|CV *cv
137
138Each CV has a pointer, C<CvOUTSIDE()>, to its lexically enclosing
139CV (if any). Because pointers to anonymous sub prototypes are
140stored in C<&> pad slots, it is a possible to get a circular reference,
141with the parent pointing to the child and vice-versa. To avoid the
142ensuing memory leak, we do not increment the reference count of the CV
143pointed to by C<CvOUTSIDE> in the I<one specific instance> that the parent
144has a C<&> pad slot pointing back to us. In this case, we set the
145C<CvWEAKOUTSIDE> flag in the child. This allows us to determine under what
146circumstances we should decrement the refcount of the parent when freeing
147the child.
148
eeb8d49e 149There is a further complication with non-closure anonymous subs (i.e. those
7dafbf52 150that do not refer to any lexicals outside that sub). In this case, the
151anonymous prototype is shared rather than being cloned. This has the
152consequence that the parent may be freed while there are still active
153children, eg
154
155 BEGIN { $a = sub { eval '$x' } }
156
157In this case, the BEGIN is freed immediately after execution since there
158are no active references to it: the anon sub prototype has
159C<CvWEAKOUTSIDE> set since it's not a closure, and $a points to the same
160CV, so it doesn't contribute to BEGIN's refcount either. When $a is
161executed, the C<eval '$x'> causes the chain of C<CvOUTSIDE>s to be followed,
162and the freed BEGIN is accessed.
163
164To avoid this, whenever a CV and its associated pad is freed, any
165C<&> entries in the pad are explicitly removed from the pad, and if the
166refcount of the pointed-to anon sub is still positive, then that
167child's C<CvOUTSIDE> is set to point to its grandparent. This will only
168occur in the single specific case of a non-closure anon prototype
169having one or more active references (such as C<$a> above).
170
171One other thing to consider is that a CV may be merely undefined
172rather than freed, eg C<undef &foo>. In this case, its refcount may
173not have reached zero, but we still delete its pad and its C<CvROOT> etc.
174Since various children may still have their C<CvOUTSIDE> pointing at this
175undefined CV, we keep its own C<CvOUTSIDE> for the time being, so that
176the chain of lexical scopes is unbroken. For example, the following
177should print 123:
178
179 my $x = 123;
180 sub tmp { sub { eval '$x' } }
181 my $a = tmp();
182 undef &tmp;
183 print $a->();
