Next: Line Start Cache, Up: The Redisplay Mechanism [Contents][Index]
Within this section, we are defenseless and assume that the following cannot happen:
We ensure (3) by calling hold_frame_size_changes(), which
will cause any pending frame size changes to get put on hold
till after the end of the critical section. (1) follows
automatically if (2) is met. #### Unfortunately, there are
some places where Lisp code can be called within this section.
We need to remove them.
If Fsignal() is called during this critical section, we
will abort().
If garbage collection is called during this critical section, we simply return. #### We should abort instead.
#### If a frame-size change does occur we should probably actually be preempting redisplay.
