+/**
+ * \file handles.h
+ * \brief Macros for C weak-handle implementation.
+ *
+ * A 'handle' is a pointer to an object that is allowed to go away while
+ * the handle stays alive. When you dereference the handle, you might get
+ * the object, or you might get "NULL".
+ *
+ * Use this pattern when an object has a single obvious lifespan, so you don't
+ * want to use reference counting, but when other objects might need to refer
+ * to the first object without caring about its lifetime.
+ *
+ * To enable a type to have handles, add a HANDLE_ENTRY() field in its
+ * definition, as in:
+ *
+ * struct walrus {
+ * HANDLE_ENTRY(wlr, walrus);
+ * // ...
+ * };
+ *
+ * And invoke HANDLE_DECL(wlr, walrus, [static]) to declare the handle
+ * manipulation functions (typically in a header):
+ *
+ * // opaque handle to walrus.
+ * typedef struct wlr_handle_t wlr_handle_t;
+ *
+ * // make a new handle
+ * struct wlr_handle_t *wlr_handle_new(struct walrus *);
+ *
+ * // release a handle
+ * void wlr_handle_free(wlr_handle_t *);
+ *
+ * // return the pointed-to walrus, or NULL.
+ * struct walrus *wlr_handle_get(wlr_handle_t *).
+ *
+ * // call this function when you're about to free the walrus;
+ * // it invalidates all handles. (IF YOU DON'T, YOU WILL HAVE
+ * // DANGLING REFERENCES)
+ * void wlr_handles_clear(struct walrus *);
+ *
+ * Finally, use HANDLE_IMPL() to define the above functions in some
+ * appropriate C file: HANDLE_IMPL(wlr, walrus, [static])

+ * Implementation notes: there are lots of possible implementations here. We
+ * could keep a linked list of handles, each with a backpointer to the object,
+ * and set all of their backpointers to NULL when the object is freed. Or we
+ * could have the clear function invalidate the object, but not actually let
+ * the object get freed until the all the handles went away. We could even
+ * have a hash-table mapping unique identifiers to objects, and have each
+ * handle be a copy of the unique identifier. (We'll want to build that last
+ * one eventually if we want cross-process handles.)
+ *
+ * But instead we're opting for a single independent 'head' that knows how
+ * many handles there are, and where the object is (or isn't). This makes
+ * all of our functions O(1), and most as fast as a single pointer access.
+ *
+ * The handles themselves are opaque structures holding a pointer to the head.
+ * We could instead have each foo_handle_t* be identical to foo_handle_head_t
+ * *, and save some allocations ... but doing so would make handle leaks
+ * harder to debug. As it stands, every handle leak is a memory leak, and
+ * existing memory debugging tools should help with those. We can revisit
+ * this decision if handles are too slow.
