// GCStrategy is relevant for implementations using either gc.root or
// gc.statepoint based lowering strategies, but is currently focused mostly on
// options for gc.root. This will change over time.
-//
+//
// When requested by a subclass of GCStrategy, the gc.root implementation will
// populate GCModuleInfo and GCFunctionInfo with that about each Function in
// the Module that opts in to garbage collection. Specifically:
-//
+//
// - Safe points
// Garbage collection is generally only possible at certain points in code.
// GCStrategy can request that the collector insert such points:
// - At and after any call to a subroutine
// - Before returning from the current function
// - Before backwards branches (loops)
-//
+//
// - Roots
// When a reference to a GC-allocated object exists on the stack, it must be
// stored in an alloca registered with llvm.gcoot.
// insertion support is planned. gc.statepoint does not currently support
// custom stack map formats; such can be generated by parsing the standard
// stack map section if desired.
-//
+//
// The read and write barrier support can be used with either implementation.
