[#31843] Garbage Collection Question — Asher <asher@...>

This question is no doubt a function of my own lack of understanding, but I think that asking it will at least help some other folks see what's going on with the internals during garbage collection.

Right - so how does a pointer ever get off the stack?

I very much appreciate the response, and this is helpful in describing the narrative, but it's still a few steps behind my question - but it may very well have clarified some points that help us get there.

You have introduced something called a "root node" without defining it. What do you mean by this?

Hi,

As a data point, here is the status of ruby 1.9.2 on Debian's official
architectures.

Our package is currently based on svn revision 28788.

The package works fine on the following architectures (no test failures
in 'make test', some in 'make test-all' but nothing serious):
- amd64
- armel
- i386
- mips
- mipsel
- powerpc
- s390

The package needs more work on those architectures:
- hppa: 'make test' passes, but 'make tests-all' segfaults
  https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=ruby1.9.1;ver=1.9.2~svn28788-1;arch=hppa;stamp=1280619012
- ia64: 'make test' passes, but 'make tests-all' segfaults
  https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=ruby1.9.1;ver=1.9.2~svn28788-1;arch=ia64;stamp=1280660476
- kfreebsd-amd64: some threading related failures, which might also
  affect FreeBSD
  https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=ruby1.9.1;ver=1.9.2~svn28788-1;arch=kfreebsd-amd64;stamp=1280661492
- kfreebsd-i386: some threading related failures too, + a segfault
  during 'make tests'
  https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=ruby1.9.1;ver=1.9.2~svn28788-1;arch=kfreebsd-i386;stamp=1280703210
- sparc: tests hang
  (no log available)
