Maybe skip: and possibly GC.in_finalizer and all related to finalizers? I see finalizers are deprecated in Java, and I didn't even know of those... If it makes sense to drop them, then not expand the API? Are they used in some packages? I actually thought the rest e.g. GC.gc was part of the API already, not objecting to it public, though I'm not sure anyone should really be using it... |
From @gbaraldi on slack
This notably does not mean that they are deprecated or are about to be removed. [edit: fixed mention, oops!] |
I don't remember having ever talked about finalisers and GC 😳 |
It was me :). But yeah, I'd rather not make any finalizer related things public, those are functions that are used mostly internally and should not be trifled with |

I think enable_logging
and logging_enabled
should maybe not have been made public?
I understand public to be part of the API guarantee?

Yes, public means that the statements made about those functions in their doc-strings or elsewhere in the non-devdocs manual will continue to hold in all future nonbreaking versions.
help?> GC.enable_logging
GC.enable_logging(on::Bool)
When turned on, print statistics about each GC to stderr.
help?> GC.logging_enabled
GC.logging_enabled()
Return whether GC logging has been enabled via GC.enable_logging.
Notably, the specific statistics printed are not specified in the docstrings.
I'm happy to make a followup PR which clarifies that the statistics might change over time or to simply back out logging altogether if you would prefer.

#51335 for the
Base.GC
submodule (cc @LilithHafner)This PR marks the following symbols as public:
gc enable enable_finalizers in_finalizer @preserve safepoint enable_logging logging_enabled
All of these have a docstring and seem to be useful for external code.
This PR should be backported to 1.11.
