X<docatch>
Check for the cases 0 or 3 of cur_env.je_ret, only used inside an eval context.
0 is used as continue inside eval,
3 is used for a die caught by an inner eval - continue inner loop
See cop.h: je_mustcatch, when set at any runlevel to TRUE, means eval ops must
establish a local jmpenv to handle exception traps.

=head1 CV reference counts and CvOUTSIDE
=over 8
=item CvWEAKOUTSIDE
X<CvWEAKOUTSIDE>
Each CV has a pointer, C<CvOUTSIDE()>, to its lexically enclosing
CV (if any). Because pointers to anonymous sub prototypes are
stored in C<&> pad slots, it is a possible to get a circular reference,
with the parent pointing to the child and vice-versa. To avoid the
ensuing memory leak, we do not increment the reference count of the CV
pointed to by C<CvOUTSIDE> in the I<one specific instance> that the parent
has a C<&> pad slot pointing back to us. In this case, we set the
C<CvWEAKOUTSIDE> flag in the child. This allows us to determine under what
circumstances we should decrement the refcount of the parent when freeing
the child.
There is a further complication with non-closure anonymous subs (i.e. those
that do not refer to any lexicals outside that sub). In this case, the
anonymous prototype is shared rather than being cloned. This has the
consequence that the parent may be freed while there are still active
children, eg
BEGIN { $a = sub { eval '$x' } }
In this case, the BEGIN is freed immediately after execution since there
are no active references to it: the anon sub prototype has
C<CvWEAKOUTSIDE> set since it's not a closure, and $a points to the same
CV, so it doesn't contribute to BEGIN's refcount either. When $a is
executed, the C<eval '$x'> causes the chain of C<CvOUTSIDE>s to be followed,
and the freed BEGIN is accessed.
To avoid this, whenever a CV and its associated pad is freed, any
C<&> entries in the pad are explicitly removed from the pad, and if the
refcount of the pointed-to anon sub is still positive, then that
child's C<CvOUTSIDE> is set to point to its grandparent. This will only
occur in the single specific case of a non-closure anon prototype
having one or more active references (such as C<$a> above).
One other thing to consider is that a CV may be merely undefined
rather than freed, eg C<undef &foo>. In this case, its refcount may
not have reached zero, but we still delete its pad and its C<CvROOT> etc.
Since various children may still have their C<CvOUTSIDE> pointing at this
undefined CV, we keep its own C<CvOUTSIDE> for the time being, so that
the chain of lexical scopes is unbroken. For example, the following
should print 123:
my $x = 123;
sub tmp { sub { eval '$x' } }
my $a = tmp();
undef &tmp;
print $a->();

dump the contents of a CV
void cv_dump(CV *cv, const char *title)
=for hackers
Found in file pad.c
=item cv_forget_slab
X<cv_forget_slab>
When a CV has a reference count on its slab (CvSLABBED), it is responsible
for making sure it is freed. (Hence, no two CVs should ever have a
reference count on the same slab.) The CV only needs to reference the slab
during compilation. Once it is compiled and CvROOT attached, it has
finished its job, so it can forget the slab.

Allocates a place in the currently-compiling

then stores a name for that entry. I<name> is adopted and
becomes the name entry; it must already contain the name
string. I<typestash> and I<ourstash> and the C<padadd_STATE>
flag get added to I<name>. None of the other
processing of L<perlapi/pad_add_name_pvn>

=item pad_findlex
X<pad_findlex>
Find a named lexical anywhere in a chain of nested pads. Add fake entries
in the inner pads if it's found in an outer one.
Returns the offset in the bottom pad of the lex or the fake lex.
cv is the CV in which to start the search, and seq is the current cop_seq
to match against. If warn is true, print appropriate warnings. The out_*
vars return values, and so are pointers to where the returned values
should be stored. out_capture, if non-null, requests that the innermost
instance of the lexical is captured; out_name is set to the innermost
matched pad name or fake pad name; out_flags returns the flags normally
associated with the PARENT_FAKELEX_FLAGS field of a fake pad name.
Note that pad_findlex() is recursive; it recurses up the chain of CVs,
then comes back down, adding fake entries
as it goes. It has to be this way
because fake names in anon protoypes have to store in xlow the index into
the parent pad.

something other than a real GV in its place in the stash, replace it
with the optimised form. Basic requirements for this are that C<gv>
is a real typeglob, is sufficiently ordinary, and is only referenced
from its package. This function is meant to be used when a GV has been
looked up in part to see what was there, causing upgrading, but based
on what was found it turns out that the real GV isn't required after all.
If C<gv> is a completely empty typeglob, it is deleted from the stash.
If C<gv> is a typeglob containing only a sufficiently-ordinary constant
sub, the typeglob is replaced with a scalar-reference placeholder that
more compactly represents the same thing.

X<refcounted_he_new_pvn>
Creates a new C<refcounted_he>. This consists of a single key/value
pair and a reference to an existing C<refcounted_he> chain (which may
be empty), and thus forms a longer chain. When using the longer chain,
the new key/value pair takes precedence over any entry for the same key
further along the chain.
The new key is specified by I<keypv> and I<keylen>. If I<flags> has
the C<REFCOUNTED_HE_KEY_UTF8> bit set, the key octets are interpreted
as UTF-8, otherwise they are interpreted as Latin-1. I<hash> is
a precomputed hash of the key string, or zero if it has not been
precomputed.
I<value> is the scalar value to store for this key. I<value> is copied
by this function, which thus does not take ownership of any reference
to it, and later changes to the scalar will not be reflected in the
value visible in the C<refcounted_he>. Complex types of scalar will not
be stored with referential integrity, but will be coerced to strings.
I<value> may be either null or C<&PL_sv_placeholder> to indicate that no
value is to be associated with the key; this, as with any non-null value,
takes precedence over the existence of a value for the key further along
the chain.
I<parent> points to the rest of the C<refcounted_he> chain to be
attached to the new C<refcounted_he>. This function takes ownership
of one reference to I<parent>, and returns one reference to the new
C<refcounted_he>.

=head1 SV Manipulation Functions
An SV (or AV, HV, etc.) is allocated in two parts: the head (struct
sv, av, hv...) contains type and reference count information, and for
many types, a pointer to the body (struct xrv, xpv, xpviv...), which
contains fields specific to each type. Some types store all they need
in the head, so don't have a body.
In all but the most memory-paranoid configurations (ex: PURIFY), heads
and bodies are allocated out of arenas, which by default are
approximately 4K chunks of memory parcelled up into N heads or bodies.
Sv-bodies are allocated by their sv-type, guaranteeing size
consistency needed to allocate safely from arrays.
For SV-heads, the first slot in each arena is reserved, and holds a
link to the next arena, some flags, and a note of the number of slots.
Snaked through each arena chain is a linked list of free items; when
this becomes empty, an extra arena is allocated and divided up into N
items which are threaded into the free list.
SV-bodies are similar, but they use arena-sets by default, which
separate the link and info from the arena itself, and reclaim the 1st
slot in the arena. SV-bodies are further described later.
The following global variables are associated with arenas:
PL_sv_arenaroot pointer to list of SV arenas
PL_sv_root pointer to list of free SV structures
PL_body_arenas head of linked-list of body arenas
PL_body_roots[] array of pointers to list of free bodies of svtype
arrays are indexed by the svtype needed
A few special SV heads are not allocated from an arena, but are
instead directly created in the interpreter structure, eg PL_sv_undef.
The size of arenas can be changed from the default by setting
PERL_ARENA_SIZE appropriately at compile time.
The SV arena serves the secondary purpose of allowing still-live SVs
to be located and destroyed during final cleanup.
At the lowest level, the macros new_SV() and del_SV() grab and free
an SV head. (If debugging with -DD, del_SV() calls the function S_del_sv()
to return the SV to the free list with error checking.) new_SV() calls
more_sv() / sv_add_arena() to add an extra arena if the free list is empty.
SVs in the free list have their SvTYPE field set to all ones.
At the time of very final cleanup, sv_free_arenas() is called from
perl_destruct() to physically free all the arenas allocated since the
start of the interpreter.
The function visit() scans the SV arenas list, and calls a specified
function for each SV it finds which is still live - ie which has an SvTYPE
other than all 1's, and a non-zero SvREFCNT. visit() is used by the
following functions (specified as [function that calls visit()] / [function
called by visit() for each SV]):
sv_report_used() / do_report_used()
dump all remaining SVs (debugging aid)
sv_clean_objs() / do_clean_objs(),do_clean_named_objs(),
do_clean_named_io_objs(),do_curse()
Attempt to free all objects pointed to by RVs,
try to do the same for all objects indir-
ectly referenced by typeglobs too, and
then do a final sweep, cursing any
objects that remain. Called once from
perl_destruct(), prior to calling sv_clean_all()
below.
sv_clean_all() / do_clean_all()
SvREFCNT_dec(sv) each remaining SV, possibly
triggering an sv_free(). It also sets the
SVf_BREAK flag on the SV to indicate that the
refcnt has been artificially lowered, and thus
stopping sv_free() from giving spurious warnings
about SVs which unexpectedly have a refcnt
of zero. called repeatedly from perl_destruct()
until there are no SVs left.
=over 8
=item SvTHINKFIRST
X<SvTHINKFIRST>
A quick flag check to see whether an sv should be passed to sv_force_normal
to be "downgraded" before SvIVX or SvPVX can be modified directly.
For example, if your scalar is a reference and you want to modify the SvIVX
slot, you can't just do SvROK_off, as that will leak the referent.
This is used internally by various sv-modifying functions, such as
sv_setsv, sv_setiv and sv_pvn_force.
One case that this does not handle is a gv without SvFAKE set. After
if (SvTHINKFIRST(gv)) sv_force_normal(gv);
it will still be a gv.
SvTHINKFIRST sometimes produces false positives. In those cases
sv_force_normal does nothing.

Decrement the refcnt of each remaining SV, possibly triggering a
cleanup. This function may have to be called multiple times to free
SVs which are in complex self-referential hierarchies.

Return an SV with the numeric value of the source SV, doing any necessary
reference or overload conversion. The caller is expected to have handled
get-magic already.

=item sv_copypv
X<sv_copypv>
Copies a stringified representation of the source SV into the
destination SV. Automatically performs any necessary mg_get and
coercion of numeric values into strings. Guaranteed to preserve
UTF8 flag even from overloaded objects. Similar in nature to
sv_2pv[_flags] but operates directly on an SV instead of just the
string. Mostly uses sv_2pv_flags to do its work, except when that
would lose the UTF-8'ness of the PV.

Returns a SV describing what the SV passed in is a reference to.

=item find_uninit_var
X<find_uninit_var>
NOTE: this function is experimental and may change or be
removed without notice.
Find the name of the undefined variable (if any) that caused the operator
to issue a "Use of uninitialized value" warning.
If match is true, only return a name if its value matches uninit_sv.
So roughly speaking, if a unary operator (such as OP_COS) generates a
warning, then following the direct child of the op may yield an
OP_PADSV or OP_GV that gives the name of the undefined variable. On the
other hand, with OP_ADD there are two branches to follow, so we only print
the variable name if we get an exact match.
desc_p points to a string pointer holding the description of the op.
This may be updated if needed.
The name is returned as a mortal SV.
Assumes that PL_op is the op that originally triggered the error, and that
PL_comppad/PL_curpad points to the currently executing pad.
