Each process maintains -- a global table of references which can be looked up with a given key. This -- table is known as the Static Pointer Table. The reference can then be -- dereferenced to obtain the value. -- -- The various communicating processes need to aggree on the keys used to refer -- to the values in the Static Pointer Table, or lookups will fail. Only -- processes launched from the same program binary are guaranteed to use the -- same set of keys. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- module GHC.StaticPtr ( StaticPtr , deRefStaticPtr , StaticKey , staticKey , unsafeLookupStaticPtr , StaticPtrInfo(..) , staticPtrInfo , staticPtrKeys , IsStatic(..) ) where import Foreign.C.Types (CInt(..)) import Foreign.Marshal (allocaArray, peekArray, withArray) import Foreign.Ptr (castPtr) import GHC.Exts (addrToAny#) import GHC.Ptr (Ptr(..), nullPtr) import GHC.Fingerprint (Fingerprint(..)) import GHC.Prim import GHC.Word (Word64(..)) #include "MachDeps.h" -- | A reference to a value of type 'a'. #if WORD_SIZE_IN_BITS < 64 data StaticPtr a = StaticPtr Word64# Word64# -- The flattened Fingerprint is -- convenient in the compiler.
