Subject: [PATCH 3/7] for_each_*_object: give more comprehensive docstrings
Date: Fri, 10 Aug 2018 19:11:14 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180810231114.GC19875@sigill.intra.peff.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180810230729.GA19090@sigill.intra.peff.net>

We already mention the local/alternate behavior of these
functions, but we can help clarify a few other behaviors:

 - there's no need to mention LOCAL_ONLY specifically, since
   we already reference the flags by type (and as we add
   more flags, we don't want to have to mention each)

 - clarify that reachability doesn't matter here; this is
   all accessible objects

 - what ordering/uniqueness guarantees we give

 - how pack-specific flags are handled for the loose case
