That's correct, but we'd likely already have to have a separate "kernel" ABI due to our assumptions about spare bits in pointers. It also seems unlikely to me that kernel developers would want to use our refcounting scheme as is. -Joe _______________________________________________ swift-dev mailing list swift-dev@swift.org https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-dev
