I've actually simplified my program that causes the issues and it doesn't
need the callback or the foreign functions at all it just needs structs
with substructs.
This shows that if garbage is collected after making the substruct is
complete then the finalizer gets run, which trashes the memory I'
Parsing it out in atomic mode probably will work, I'll look at that. The
callback method I described is actually not how it works, and it is a bit
more complicated (involving a separate place and blocking foreign calls),
but I can do all of the decomposing work in atomic mode. I think I'm
avoiding
Is the work to parse out the values short enough that you can do it
atomically in response to the notification that says the data is ready?
If so, it's probably best to parse and free in atomic mode. Or can you
at least atomically separate out references to children, where
finalizers can sensibly b
I'm dealing with some foreign apis that want to be passed long lived output
pointers to structs. The apis eventually call back indicating that the
struct has been filled in appropriately and then I want to read out the
values and deallocate the structs. I'm using atomic interior memory for
these st
