Much more detail can be found in the git revision history: https://github.com/jemalloc/jemalloc +* 5.0.1 (July 1, 2017) + + This bugfix release fixes several issues, most of which are obscure enough + that typical applications are not impacted. + + Bug fixes: + - Update decay->nunpurged before purging, in order to avoid potential update + races and subsequent incorrect purging volume. (@interwq) + - Only abort on dlsym(3) error if the failure impacts an enabled feature (lazy + locking and/or background threads). This mitigates an initialization + failure bug for which we still do not have a clear reproduction test case. + (@interwq) + - Modify tsd management so that it neither crashes nor leaks if a thread's + only allocation activity is to call free() after TLS destructors have been + executed. This behavior was observed when operating with GNU libc, and is + unlikely to be an issue with other libc implementations. (@interwq) + - Mask signals during background thread creation. This prevents signals from + being inadvertently delivered to background threads. (@jasone, + @davidgoldblatt, @interwq) + - Avoid inactivity checks within background threads, in order to prevent + recursive mutex acquisition. (@interwq) + - Fix extent_grow_retained() to use the specified hooks when the + arena..extent_hooks mallctl is used to override the default hooks. + (@interwq) + - Add missing reentrancy support for custom extent hooks which allocate. + (@interwq) + - Post-fork(2), re-initialize the list of tcaches associated with each arena + to contain no tcaches except the forking thread's. (@interwq) + - Add missing post-fork(2) mutex reinitialization for extent_grow_mtx. This + fixes potential deadlocks after fork(2). (@interwq) + - Enforce minimum autoconf version (currently 2.68), since 2.63 is known to + generate corrupt configure scripts. (@jasone) + - Ensure that the configured page size (--with-lg-page) is no larger than the + configured huge page size (--with-lg-hugepage). (@jasone) + * 5.0.0 (June 13, 2017) Unlike all previous jemalloc releases, this release does not use naturally
