Consistently use the mark bit of the root interval's parent field to say whether or not the interval tree has been visited (and skip it when revisited), and the mark bit of the plist field to say whether or not that interval has been visited (and abort if revisited); don't try to use the plist mark bit for both meanings. * alloc.c (mark_interval_tree): Don't test if the interval tree has already been visited here; let the MARK_INTERVAL_TREE macro do that; avoid function call overhead. Mark the interval tree as having been visited by setting TREE->parent's mark bit. (MARK_INTERVAL_TREE): If the tree has been visited (according to I->parent's mark bit), don't call mark_interval_tree. (gc_sweep): Rebalance the interval trees of those large strings which are still alive. This also clears the mark bits of those trees' root intervals' parent fields. (compact_strings): Rebalance the interval tree of each small strings which is still alive. This also clears the mark bits of that tree's root interval's parent field. Since the string has moved, update the root interval's parent pointer to contain the new address. * lisp.h (struct interval): Doc fix; explain the roles of the mark bits of the parent and plist members.

/* When Emacs is using signal-driven input, the processing of those
   input signals can get pretty hairy.  For example, when Emacs is
   running under X windows, handling an input signal can entail
   retrieving events from the X event queue, or making other X calls.

   If an input signal occurs while Emacs is in the midst of some
   non-reentrant code, and the signal processing invokes that same
   code, we lose.  For example, malloc and the Xlib functions aren't
   usually re-entrant, and both are used by the X input signal handler
   - if we try to process an input signal in the midst of executing
   any of these functions, we'll lose.

   To avoid this, we make the following requirements:

   * Everyone must evaluate BLOCK_INPUT before entering these functions,
   and then call UNBLOCK_INPUT after performing them.  Calls
   BLOCK_INPUT and UNBLOCK_INPUT may be nested.

   * Any complicated interrupt handling code should test
   interrupt_input_blocked, and put off its work until later.  

   * If the interrupt handling code wishes, it may set
   interrupt_input_pending to a non-zero value.  If that flag is set
   when input becomes unblocked, UNBLOCK_INPUT will send a new SIGIO.  */

extern int interrupt_input_blocked;

/* Nonzero means an input interrupt has arrived
   during the current critical section.  */
extern int interrupt_input_pending;

/* Begin critical section. */
#define BLOCK_INPUT (interrupt_input_blocked++)

/* End critical section.

   If doing signal-driven input, and a signal came in when input was
   blocked, reinvoke the signal handler now to deal with it.

   We used to have two possible definitions of this macro - one for
   when SIGIO was #defined, and one for when it wasn't; when SIGIO
   wasn't #defined, we wouldn't bother to check if we should re-invoke
   the signal handler.  But that doesn't work very well; some of the
   files which use this macro don't #include the right files to get
   SIGIO.

   So, we always test interrupt_input_pending now; that's not too
   expensive, and it'll never get set if we don't need to resignal.  */
