The FJIT uses the emit_trap_gc() macro to emit code that indicates GC safe points. Within methods, it emits GC polls on backward branches and a number of other constructs. Take a look at invocations of the macro in clr\src\fjit\fjit.cpp.

Can a collection occurs when a thread is in the middle of a method (i.e. the method has not exited)? Any existing documentations that elaborate the safe points for a thread in SSCLI?
