230 The entry code for every CAF does the following:
232 - builds a BLACKHOLE in the heap
233 - pushes an update frame pointing to the BLACKHOLE
234 - calls newCaf, below
235 - updates the CAF with a static indirection to the BLACKHOLE
237 Why do we build an BLACKHOLE in the heap rather than just updating
238 the thunk directly? It's so that we only need one kind of update
239 frame - otherwise we'd need a static version of the update frame too.
241 newCaf() does the following:
243 - it puts the CAF on the oldest generation's mutable list.
244 This is so that we treat the CAF as a root when collecting
247 For GHCI, we have additional requirements when dealing with CAFs:
249 - we must *retain* all dynamically-loaded CAFs ever entered,
250 just in case we need them again.
251 - we must be able to *revert* CAFs that have been evaluated, to
252 their pre-evaluated form.
254 To do this, we use an additional CAF list. When newCaf() is
255 called on a dynamically-loaded CAF, we add it to the CAF list
256 instead of the old-generation mutable list, and save away its
257 old info pointer (in caf->saved_info) for later reversion.
259 To revert all the CAFs, we traverse the CAF list and reset the
260 info pointer to caf->saved_info, then throw away the CAF list.

892 the linker cannot use allocateExec for loading object code files
893 on Windows. Once allocateExec can handle larger objects, the linker
894 should be modified to use allocateExec instead of VirtualAlloc.
