 Why do we use GC_NOTRIGGERS rather than GC_FORBID? Because forcing every function to choose between GC_TRIGGERS and GC_FORBID is too inflexible given that some callers don't actually care about GC. Consider a simple class member function that returns the value of a field. How should it be declared? If you choose GC_TRIGGERS, then the function cannot be legally called from a GC_NOTRIGGER function even though this is perfectly safe. If you choose GC_FORBID, then every caller must switch to cooperative mode to invoke the function just to prevent an assert. Thus, GC_NOTRIGGER was created as a middle ground and has become far more pervasive and useful than GC_FORBID. Callers who actually need GC stopped will have put themselves in cooperative mode anyway and in those cases, GC_NOTRIGGER actually becomes GC_FORBID. Callers who don't care can just call the function and not worry about modes.

+# Mono code guidelines
+
+This document is meant to capture guidelines for contributing code to
+the [src/mono/mono/](../../src/mono/mono),
+[src/native/public/mono](../../src/native/public/mono) areas of the
+dotnet/runtime repo.
+
+In general this guide does not apply to:
+
+1. Shared native code in [src/native](../../src/native)
+2. The Mono-specific C# code in [src/mono](../../src/mono) in System.Private.CoreLib or elsewhere
+
+## Code style
+
+Mono is written in C.
+
+We follow the [Mono Coding guidelines](https://www.mono-project.com/community/contributing/coding-guidelines/) for the C code - in particular:
+
+* tabs, not spaces
+* space between a function name and the open parenthesis
+* braces on the same line as `if`, `for`, `while` etc
+
+## Naming
+
+Mono reserves the following prefixes for symbols: `mono_`, `monovm_`, `m_`, `monoeg_` (used to remap [`eglib`](../../src/mono/mono/eglib)
+functions which in source code have a `g_` prefix).
+
+All non-`static` symbols should use one of these prefixes.  We generally use `mono_` for most
+functions.  `m_` is used for some inline accessor functions and macros.  `g_` (`mono_eg_`) is used
+for `eglib` functions.
+
+Types in a single C file can use any name.  Types in a header should use a `Mono` (or sometimes
+`mono_`) prefix.
+
+Public API symbols and types *must* be prefixed.
+
+For types Mono generally uses `typedef struct _MonoWhatever { ... } MonoWhatever`.  Opaque types may
+define `typedef struct _MonoWhatever MonoWhatever` in a client header and define `struct
+_MonoWhatever {...}` in an implementation header.  Occasionally we break `#include` cycles by adding
+forward declarations for some types.
+
+## Macros
+
+Mono derives from an autotools-style project so we generally write `HOST_XYZ` for the machine on
+which the runtime is executing (as opposed to the machine on which the runtime was compiled), and
+`TARGET_XYZ` for the machine that will be targeted by the JIT and AOT compilers.  In the case of AOT
+compilation host and target might be different: the host might be Windows, and the target might be
+Browser WebAssembly, for example.
+
+Macros generally use a `MONO_` prefix.  Macros in public API headers *must* use the prefix.
+
+## Types
+
+Prefer the standard C sized types `int32_t`, `intptr_t`, etc over the eglib types `gint32`, `gsize` etc.
+
+One exception is `gboolean` is prefered over C `bool`.
+
+There are actually three boolean types to keep in mind:
+
+* `gboolean` used internally in the runtime
+* `MonoBoolean` used as an interop type with C# bool in internal calls
+* `mono_bool` used by the public C API - generally new code shouldn't use it except when adding a new public API function.
+
+## Utility and platform abstraction functions
+
+Mono generally tries to fill in POSIX-like abstractions on platforms that lack them (for example, Windows).
+This is in contrast to the CoreCLR PAL which generally tries to add Windows API abstractions on top
+of POSIX.
+
+If an existing `eglib` utility function is available, it should be used.  New ones can be added.
+
+Other platform specific code is in `src/mono/utils`
+
+## Directory dependencies
+
+For the code in `src/mono/mono`:
+
+* `eglib` should not depend on other code from `src/mono`
+
+* `utils` can depend on `eglib` and 3rd party code from `src/native/external`
+
+* `sgen` depends on `eglib` and `utils`
+
+* `metadata` depends on all of the above (but note that some Boehm-GC files in this directory should not depend on `sgen`)
+
+* `mini` depends on all of the above
+
+* `mini/interp` depends on all of the above
+
+* `components` can use functions from all of the above provided they're marked with
+  `MONO_COMPONENT_API`, see [../design/mono/components.md](../design/mono/components.md)
+
+The main distinction between `metadata` and `utils` is that utils code should not assume that it is
+part of an executing .NET runtime - anything that loads types, creates objects, etc does not belong
+in utils but in metadata.
+
+The `mini` directory contains execution engines.  If the execution engine has to provide some
+functionality to `metadata` it generally does so by installing some callback that is invoked by
+`metadata`.  For example, `mini` knows how to unwind exceptions and perform stack walks - while
+`metadata` decides *when* to unwind or perform a stackwalk.  To coordinate, `metadata` exposes an
+API to install hooks and `mini` provides the implementations.
+
+## Error handling
+
+New code should prefer to use the `MonoError` functions.
+
+* A non-public-API function should take a `MonoError *` argument.
+* In case of an error the function should call one of the `mono_error_set_` functions from [../../src/mono/mono/utils/mono-error-internals.h](../../src/mono/mono/utils/mono-error-internals.h)
+* Inside the runtime check whether there was an error by calling `is_ok (error)`, `mono_error_assert_ok (error)`, `goto_if_nok` or `return_if_nok`/`return_val_if_nok`
+* If there is an error and you're handling it, call `mono_error_cleanup (error)` to dispose of the resources.
+* `MonoError*` is generally one-shot: after it's been cleaned up it needs to be re-inited with `mono_error_init_reuse`, but this is discouraged.
+* Instead if you intend to deal with an error, use `ERROR_DECL (local_error)` then call the
+  possibly-failing function and pass it `local_error`, then call `mono_error_assert_ok
+  (local_error)` if it "can't fail" or `mono_error_cleanup (local_error)` if you want to ignore the
+  failure.
+
+## Managed Exceptions
+
+New code should generally not deal with `MonoException*`, use `MonoError*` instead.
+
+New code should avoid using `mono_error_set_pending_exception` - it affects a thread-local flag in
+a way that is not obvious to the caller of your function and may trample existing in-flight
+exceptions and make your code fail in unexpected ways.
+
+There are two circumstances when you might need to call `mono_error_set_pending_exception`:
+
+1. You're working with a public Mono API that sets a pending exception
+2. You're implementing an icall, but can't use `HANDLES()` (see the [internal calls](#internal-calls) section below)
+
+## Internal calls
+
+Prefer P/Invokes or QCalls over internal calls.  That is, if your function only takes arguments that
+are not managed objects, and does not need to interact with the runtime, it is better to define it
+outside the runtime.
+
+Internal calls generally have at least one argument that is a managed object, or may throw a managed exception.
+
+Internal calls are declared in [`icall-def.h`](../../src/mono/mono/metadata/icall-def.h) See the comment in the header for details.
+
+There are two styles of internal calls: `NOHANDLES` and `HANDLES`.  (This is a simplification as there
+are also JIT internal calls added by the execution engines)
+
+The difference is that `HANDLES` icalls receive references to managed objects wrapped in a handle
+that attempts to keep the object alive for the duration of the internal call even if the thread
+blocks or is suspended, while `NOHANDLES` functions don't.  Additionally `HANDLES` functions get a
+`MonoError*` argument from the managed-to-native interop layer that will be converted to a managed
+exception when the function returns.  `NOHANDLES` functions generally have to call
+`mono_error_set_pending_exception` themselves.
+
+## Suspend Safety
+
+See [Cooperative Suspend at mono-project.com](https://www.mono-project.com/docs/advanced/runtime/docs/coop-suspend/) and the [mono thread state machine design document](../design/mono/mono-thread-state-machine.md)
+
+In general runtime functions that may be called from the public Mono API should call
+`MONO_ENTER_GC_UNSAFE`/`MONO_EXIT_GC_UNSAFE` if they call any other runtime API.  Internal calls are
+already in GC Unsafe on entry, but QCalls and P/Invokes aren't.
+
+When calling a blocking native API, wrap the call in `MONO_ENTER_GC_SAFE`/`MONO_EXIT_GC_SAFE`.
+
+Prefer `mono_coop_` synchronization primitives (`MonoCoopMutex`, `MonoCoopCond`,
+`MonoCoopSemaphore`, etc) over `mono_os_` primitives (`mono_mutex_t`, `mono_cond_t`).  The former
+will automatically go into GC Safe mode before doing operations that may block.  The latter should
+only be used for low-level leaf locks that may need to be shared with non-runtime code. You're
+responsible for switching to GC Safe mode when doing blocking operations in that case.
+
+## GC Memory Safety
+
+We have explored many different policies on how to safely access managed memory from the runtime.  The existing code is not uniform.
+
+This is the current policy (but check with a team member as this document may need to be updated):
+
+1. It is never ok to access a managed object from GC Safe code.
+2. Mono's GC scans the managed heap precisely.  Mono does not allow heap objects to contain pointers into the interior of other managed obejcts.
+3. Mono's GC scans the native stack conservatively: any value that looks like a pointer into the GC
+   heap, will cause the target object to be pinned and not collected.  Interior pointers from the
+   stack into the middle of a managed object are allowed and will pin the object.
+
+In general one of the following should be used to ensure that an object is kept alive, particularly
+across a call back into managed from native, or across a call that may trigger a GC (effectively
+nearly any runtime internal API, due to assembly loading potentially triggering managed callbacks):
+
+* The object is pinned in managed code using `fixed` (common with strings) and the native code gets a `gunichar2*`
+* a `ref` local is passed into native code and the native code gets a `MonoObject * volatile *` (the `volatile` is important)
+* a `Span<T>` is passed into native code and the native code gets a `MonoSpanOfObjects*`
+* an icall is declared with `HANDLES()` and a `MonoObjectHandle` (or a more specific type such as `MonoReflectionTypeHandle` is passed in).
+* a GCHandle is passed in
+
+Generally only functions on the boundary between managed and native should use one of the above
+mechanisms (that is, it's enough that an object is pinned once). Callees can take a `MonoObject*`
+argument and assume that it was pinned by the caller.
+
+In cases where an object is created in native code, it should be kept alive:
+
+1. By assigning into a `MonoObject * volatile *` (ie: use `out` or `ref` arguments in C#)
+2. By creating a local handle using `MONO_HANDLE_NEW` or `MONO_HANDLE_PIN` (the function should then use `HANDLE_FUNCTION_ENTER`/`HANDLE_FUNCTION_RETURN` to set up and tear down a handle frame)
+3. By creating a GCHandle
+4. By assigning to a field of another managed object
+
+In all cases, if there is any intervening internal API call or a call to managed code, the object
+must be kept alive before the call using one of the above methods.
+
+### Write barriers
+
+When writing a managed object to a field of another managed object, use one of the
+`mono_gc_wbarrier_` functions (for example, `mono_gc_wbarrier_generic_store`).  It is ok to call the write
+barrier functions if the destination is not in the managed heap (in which case they will just do a normal write)
+
+## Assertions
+
+Mono code should use `g_assert`, `mono_error_assert_ok`, `g_assertf`, `g_assert_not_reached` etc.
+
+Unlike CoreCLR, Mono assertions are always included in the runtime - both in Debug and in Release builds.
+
+New code should try not to rely on the side-effects of assert conditions. (That is, one day we may want
+to turn off assertions in Release builds.)
+
+## Mono Public API
+
+Mono maintains a public API for projects that embed the Mono runtime in order to provide the ability
+to execute .NET code in the context of another application or framework.  The current Mono API is
+`mono-2.0`.  We strive to maintain binary ABI and API stability for our embedders.
+
+The public API headers are defined in
+[`../../src/native/public/mono`](../../src/native/public/mono).  Great care should be taken when
+modifying any of the functions declared in these headers.  In particular breaking the ABI by
+removing these functions or changing their arguments is not allowed.  Semantic changes should be
+avoided, or implemented in a way that is least disruptive to embedders (for example the runtime does
+not support multiple appdomains anymore, but `mono_domain_get` continues to work).
+
+### Hidden API functions
+
+In practice certain functions have been tagged with `MONO_API` even if they are not declared in the
+public headers.  These symbols have been used by projects that embed Mono despite not being in the
+public headers.  They should be treated with the same care as the real public API.
+
+### Unstable API functions
+
+Functions declared in `mono-private-unstable.h` headers do not need to maintain API/ABI stability.
+They are generally new APIs that have been added since .NET 5 but that have not been stabilized yet.
+
+As a matter of courtesy, notify the .NET macios and .NET Android teams if changing the behavior of these functions.
+
+### WASM
+
+The WASM and WASI runtimes in [`src/mono/wasm/runtime`](../../src/mono/wasm/runtime) and
+`src/mono/wasi` are effectively external API clients.  When possible they should use existing `MONO_API` functions.
+
+As a matter of expedience, the wasm project has sometimes taken advantage of static linking by
+adding declarations of internal Mono functions in `src/mono/wasm/runtime/driver.c` and directly
+calling Mono internals.
+
+In general new code should not do this.  When modifying existing code, mysterious WASM failures may
+be attributed to symbol signature mismatches between WASM and the Mono runtime.
