26=head1 CV Manipulation Functions
27
28This section documents functions to manipulate CVs which are code-values,
29or subroutines. For more information, see L<perlguts>.
30
31=for apidoc Am|HV*|CvSTASH|CV* cv
32Returns the stash of the CV. A stash is the symbol table hash, containing
33the package-scoped variables in the package where the subroutine was defined.
34For more information, see L<perlguts>.
35
36This also has a special use with XS AUTOLOAD subs.
37See L<perlguts/Autoloading with XSUBs>.

216=head1 CV reference counts and CvOUTSIDE
217
218=for apidoc m|bool|CvWEAKOUTSIDE|CV *cv
219
220Each CV has a pointer, C<CvOUTSIDE()>, to its lexically enclosing
221CV (if any). Because pointers to anonymous sub prototypes are
222stored in C<&> pad slots, it is a possible to get a circular reference,
223with the parent pointing to the child and vice-versa. To avoid the
224ensuing memory leak, we do not increment the reference count of the CV
225pointed to by C<CvOUTSIDE> in the I<one specific instance> that the parent
226has a C<&> pad slot pointing back to us. In this case, we set the
227C<CvWEAKOUTSIDE> flag in the child. This allows us to determine under what
228circumstances we should decrement the refcount of the parent when freeing
229the child.
230
231There is a further complication with non-closure anonymous subs (i.e. those
232that do not refer to any lexicals outside that sub). In this case, the
233anonymous prototype is shared rather than being cloned. This has the
234consequence that the parent may be freed while there are still active
235children, eg
236
237 BEGIN { $a = sub { eval '$x' } }
238
239In this case, the BEGIN is freed immediately after execution since there
240are no active references to it: the anon sub prototype has
241C<CvWEAKOUTSIDE> set since it's not a closure, and $a points to the same
242CV, so it doesn't contribute to BEGIN's refcount either. When $a is
243executed, the C<eval '$x'> causes the chain of C<CvOUTSIDE>s to be followed,
244and the freed BEGIN is accessed.
245
246To avoid this, whenever a CV and its associated pad is freed, any
247C<&> entries in the pad are explicitly removed from the pad, and if the
248refcount of the pointed-to anon sub is still positive, then that
249child's C<CvOUTSIDE> is set to point to its grandparent. This will only
250occur in the single specific case of a non-closure anon prototype
251having one or more active references (such as C<$a> above).
252
253One other thing to consider is that a CV may be merely undefined
254rather than freed, eg C<undef &foo>. In this case, its refcount may
255not have reached zero, but we still delete its pad and its C<CvROOT> etc.
256Since various children may still have their C<CvOUTSIDE> pointing at this
257undefined CV, we keep its own C<CvOUTSIDE> for the time being, so that
258the chain of lexical scopes is unbroken. For example, the following
259should print 123:
260
261 my $x = 123;
262 sub tmp { sub { eval '$x' } }
263 my $a = tmp();
264 undef &tmp;
265 print $a->();
