// A Symbol is a canonicalized string.
// All Symbols reside in global SymbolTable and are reference counted.
// Reference counting
//
// All Symbols are allocated and added to the SymbolTable.
// When a class is unloaded, the reference counts of the Symbol pointers in
// the ConstantPool and in InstanceKlass (see release_C_heap_structures) are
// decremented. When the reference count for a Symbol goes to 0, the garbage
// collector can free the Symbol and remove it from the SymbolTable.
//
// 0) Symbols need to be reference counted when a pointer to the Symbol is
// saved in persistent storage. This does not include the pointer
// in the SymbolTable bucket (the _literal field in HashtableEntry)
// that points to the Symbol. All other stores of a Symbol*
// to a field of a persistent variable (e.g., the _name filed in
// fieldDescriptor or _ptr in a CPSlot) is reference counted.
//
// 1) The lookup of a "name" in the SymbolTable either creates a Symbol F for
// "name" and returns a pointer to F or finds a pre-existing Symbol F for
// "name" and returns a pointer to it. In both cases the reference count for F
// is incremented under the assumption that a pointer to F will be created from
// the return value. Thus the increment of the reference count is on the lookup
// and not on the assignment to the new Symbol*. That is
// Symbol* G = lookup()
// ^ increment on lookup()
// and not
// Symbol* G = lookup()
// ^ increment on assignmnet
// The reference count must be decremented manually when the copy of the
// pointer G is destroyed.
//
// 2) For a local Symbol* A that is a copy of an existing Symbol* B, the
// reference counting is elided when the scope of B is greater than the scope
// of A. For example, in the code fragment
// below "klass" is passed as a parameter to the method. Symbol* "kn"
// is a copy of the name in "klass".
//
// Symbol* kn = klass->name();
// unsigned int d_hash = dictionary()->compute_hash(kn, class_loader);
//
// The scope of "klass" is greater than the scope of "kn" so the reference
// counting for "kn" is elided.
//
// Symbol* copied from ConstantPool entries are good candidates for reference
// counting elision. The ConstantPool entries for a class C exist until C is
// unloaded. If a Symbol* is copied out of the ConstantPool into Symbol* X,
// the Symbol* in the ConstantPool will in general out live X so the reference
// counting on X can be elided.
//
// For cases where the scope of A is not greater than the scope of B,
// the reference counting is explicitly done. See ciSymbol,
// ResolutionErrorEntry and ClassVerifier for examples.
//
// 3) When a Symbol K is created for temporary use, generally for substrings of
// an existing symbol or to create a new symbol, assign it to a
// TempNewSymbol. The SymbolTable methods new_symbol(), lookup()
// and probe() all potentially return a pointer to a new Symbol.
// The allocation (or lookup) of K increments the reference count for K
// and the destructor decrements the reference count.
//
// This cannot be inherited from ResourceObj because it cannot have a vtable.
// Since sometimes this is allocated from Metadata, pick a base allocation
// type without virtual functions.
