Enum rustc_mir::interpret::GlobalAlloc

pub enum GlobalAlloc<'tcx> {
    Function(Instance<'tcx>),
    Static(DefId),
    Memory(&'tcx Allocation<(), ()>),
}

An allocation in the global (tcx-managed) memory can be either a function pointer, a static, or a "real" allocation with some data in it.

Variants

Function(Instance<'tcx>)

The alloc ID is used as a function pointer.

Static(DefId)

The alloc ID points to a "lazy" static variable that did not get computed (yet). This is also used to break the cycle in recursive statics.

Memory(&'tcx Allocation<(), ()>)

The alloc ID points to memory.
