This last commit is a bit nerve-wracking. Is there somewhere we could add an assertion for s390x so if this ever goes awry, it's easy to debug?

@jckarter and @mikeash convinced me that this should be okay, so I'll worry less.

Should be fine as long as
swift_*alloc*
never use the high half of address space. The issue here is whether a pointer to a refcountable Swift object is ever in the high half—if that's never the case, then it's OK.There was a problem hiding this comment.

Is there a way to make this comment more descriptive then? Maybe mention that while the address space theoretically includes it, swift_alloc can never allocated objects at those addresses.

By default the allocator functions just call down to the platform
malloc
, so you could look at whatevermalloc
does.There was a problem hiding this comment.

Ah ok - yes, malloc can allocate upper range if other address space is exhausted.
How about changing the comment to read this:

So it'll happen but only if you allocate ~9.2 exabytes of memory?
