Once again, the more I try to understand how GC works at
the C++ level, the more I get lost.
OK, as I said elsewhere, I think we really need documentation for
these things. I'm proposing some text for the CG in
https://gitlab.com/lilypond/lilypond/-/merge_requests/1450
This is incomplete, but I think it should already help a lot.
I suppose you've seen the comments in lily/include/smobs.hh and
lily/include/small-smobs.hh ? I know it's kind of unusual to expect
useful information from source file comments, but those may have been
phrased a bit more diligently than average.
While the CG should certainly not be quiet here, those comments may at
least be a reasonable starting point.
Yup, I know about them, and they were already helpful for me.
They are focused on the smob infrastructure though. They tell
nothing about marking local variables, for example.
