php 垃圾回收机制

可能根缓冲区(possible roots):

     存放垃圾回收期间遍历的变量

添加到跟缓冲区的时机:

    当ZEND_UNSET_VAR发生或zend_assign_to_variable仅在可能产生垃圾节点时调用时，可以将节点添加到所有根。将调用gc_possible le_root()将节点添加到可能的根。

变量在缓冲区的状态:

 * BLACK  (GC_BLACK)   - 正在使用或者空闲
 * GREY   (GC_GREY)    - 周期的可能成员(疑似垃圾)
 * WHITE  (GC_WHITE)   -周期的垃圾成员
 * PURPLE (GC_PURPLE)  - 周期的可能根(就是变量)

/**
 * zend_gc_collect_cycles
 * ======================
 *
 * Colors and its meaning
 * ----------------------
 *
 * BLACK  (GC_BLACK)   - In use or free.
 * GREY   (GC_GREY)    - Possible member of cycle.
 * WHITE  (GC_WHITE)   - Member of garbage cycle.
 * PURPLE (GC_PURPLE)  - Possible root of cycle.
 *
 * Colors described in the paper but not used
 * ------------------------------------------
 *
 * GREEN - Acyclic
 * RED   - Candidate cycle underogin
 * ORANGE - Candidate cycle awaiting epoch boundary.
 *
 *
 * Flow
 * =====
 *
 * The garbage collect cycle starts from 'gc_mark_roots', which traverses the
 * possible roots, and calls mark_grey for roots are marked purple with
 * depth-first traverse.
 *
 * After all possible roots are traversed and marked,
 * gc_scan_roots will be called, and each root will be called with
 * gc_scan(root->ref)
 *
 * gc_scan checkes the colors of possible members.
 *
 * If the node is marked as grey and the refcount > 0
 *    gc_scan_black will be called on that node to scan it's subgraph.
 * otherwise (refcount == 0), it marks the node white.
 *
 * A node MAY be added to possbile roots when ZEND_UNSET_VAR happens or
 * zend_assign_to_variable is called only when possible garbage node is
 * produced.
 * gc_possible_root() will be called to add the nodes to possible roots.
 *
 *
 * For objects, we call their get_gc handler (by default 'zend_std_get_gc') to
 * get the object properties to scan.
