Abstract
A system executes a first virtual thread, including storing a first shared object in a first private memory region, storing a pointer in a shared memory region, and determining that the pointer includes a reference to a location of the first shared object in the first private memory region. Responsive to determining that the pointer includes the reference, the system designates the first virtual thread as disqualified from eligibility for execution of a sweeping thread-local garbage collection process and augments the pointer to indicate that the pointer includes the reference to the location of the first shared object. The system executes a second virtual thread, including loading the pointer and determining that the pointer has been augmented. Responsive to determining that the pointer has been augmented, the system designates the second virtual thread as disqualified from eligibility for execution of the sweeping thread-local garbage collection process.
