# Structure we are creating:

# ^ |
# +--+
# where:
# WZ is a weakref to Z with callback C
# Y doesn't implement tp_traverse
# A contains a reference to itself, Y and WZ
#
# A, Y, Z, WZ are all trash. The GC doesn't know that Z is trash
# because Y does not implement tp_traverse. To show the bug, WZ needs
# to live long enough so that Z is deallocated before it. Then, if
# gcmodule is buggy, when Z is being deallocated, C will run.
#
# To ensure WZ lives long enough, we put it in a second reference
# cycle. That trick only works due to the ordering of the GC prev/next
# linked lists. So, this test is a bit fragile.
#
# The bug reported in bpo-38006 is caused because the GC did not
# clear WZ before starting the process of calling tp_clear on the
# trash. Normally, handle_weakrefs() would find the weakref via Z and
# clear it. However, since the GC cannot find Z, WR is not cleared and
# it can execute during delete_garbage(). That can lead to disaster
# since the callback might tinker with objects that have already had
# tp_clear called on them (leaving them in possibly invalid states).
