Diego -

I have some relatively minor comments. In general, the these changes
and the adjusted GTY doc intro blurb you sent in the other email are
OK with the minor comments addressed and if no objections from global
maintainers.

Are "explicit annotations for marking user types" referring to GTY((user))?

Maybe this function should return const-less char *? The casts to cast
the const away for freeing it look a bit awkward.

For example, here.

I wonder if these externs can be avoided by including gtype-desc.h. I
realize that gtype-desc.h declares a lot of stuff, but if tree-cfg.c
already declares GC roots, then it already should be pulling that
header in in through gt-tree-cfg.h.

Just for my education, for the marking routines in general why having
the parameter tp be a pointer, rather than TP<T> &tp ?

Actually, the comment is wrong.  When we don't recognize the type, we 
simply consider this type as implicitly user-defined.

Sorry.  They belong to the hash table patch.  Both patches touched the 
same file and I missed splitting these hunks.

Not really.  These are never really defined anywhere.  They are emitted 
in gtype-desc.c, but we never emit prototypes for them.  Going down that 
road ends up in turning gengtype upside-down.

It would be better, yes.  But since gengtype does not generate files 
that include the proper headers, we can't.  We can get away with forward 
declaring the struct names and passing pointers around, but the minute 
you add a type reference, all hell breaks loose.

I was too quick.  The problem here is that we sometimes return 
TYPE_NAME, which must be 'const char *'.  So, the ugliness is unavoidable.

+The garbage collector supports types for which no automatic marking

+two functions to act as marker and pointer walking for pre-compiled

+
+Given a structure @code{struct GTY((user)) my_struct}, the following functions

+In general, each marker @code{M} should call @code{M} for every

+
+For embedded lists (e.g., structures with a @code{next} or @code{prev}
+pointer), the marker must follow the chain and mark every element in
+it.
+
+Note that the rules for the pointer walker @code{gt_pch_nx (my_struct

+Support for user-defined types is currently limited. The following
+restrictions apply:
+
+@enumerate
+@item Type @code{TP} and all the argument types @code{T} must be
+marked with @code{GTY}.
+
+@item Type @code{TP} can only have type names in its argument list.
+
+@item The pointer walker functions are different for @code{TP<T>} and
+@code{TP<T *>}. In the case of @code{TP<T>}, references to
+@code{T} must be handled by calling @code{gt_pch_nx} (which
+will, in turn, walk all the pointers inside fields of @code{T}).
+In the case of @code{TP<T *>}, references to @code{T *} must be
+handled by calling the @code{op} function on the address of the
+pointer (see the code snippets above).
