ee41ad409a Integrate whole chunks into unused dirty page purging machinery.
Extend per arena unused dirty page purging to manage unused dirty chunks
in aaddtion to unused dirty runs.  Rather than immediately unmapping
deallocated chunks (or purging them in the --disable-munmap case), store
them in a separate set of trees, chunks_[sz]ad_dirty.  Preferrentially
allocate dirty chunks.  When excessive unused dirty pages accumulate,
purge runs and chunks in ingegrated LRU order (and unmap chunks in the
--enable-munmap case).

Refactor extent_node_t to provide accessor functions.

1eaf3b6f34 add missing check for new_addr chunk size
8ddc93293c switched this to over using the
address tree in order to avoid false negatives, so it now needs to check
that the size of the free extent is large enough to satisfy the request.

cbf3a6d703 Move centralized chunk management into arenas.
Migrate all centralized data structures related to huge allocations and
recyclable chunks into arena_t, so that each arena can manage huge
allocations and recyclable virtual memory completely independently of
other arenas.

Add chunk node caching to arenas, in order to avoid contention on the
base allocator.

Use chunks_rtree to look up huge allocations rather than a red-black
tree.  Maintain a per arena unsorted list of huge allocations (which
will be needed to enumerate huge allocations during arena reset).

Remove the --enable-ivsalloc option, make ivsalloc() always available,
and use it for size queries if --enable-debug is enabled.  The only
practical implications to this removal are that 1) ivsalloc() is now
always available during live debugging (and the underlying radix tree is
available during core-based debugging), and 2) size query validation can
no longer be enabled independent of --enable-debug.

Remove the stats.chunks.{current,total,high} mallctls, and replace their
underlying statistics with simpler atomically updated counters used
exclusively for gdump triggering.  These statistics are no longer very
useful because each arena manages chunks independently, and per arena
statistics provide similar information.

Simplify chunk synchronization code, now that base chunk allocation
cannot cause recursive lock acquisition.

8d0e04d42f Refactor rtree to be lock-free.
Recent huge allocation refactoring associates huge allocations with
arenas, but it remains necessary to quickly look up huge allocation
metadata during reallocation/deallocation.  A global radix tree remains
a good solution to this problem, but locking would have become the
primary bottleneck after (upcoming) migration of chunk management from
global to per arena data structures.

This lock-free implementation uses double-checked reads to traverse the
tree, so that in the steady state, each read or write requires only a
single atomic operation.

This implementation also assures that no more than two tree levels
actually exist, through a combination of careful virtual memory
allocation which makes large sparse nodes cheap, and skipping the root
node on x64 (possible because the top 16 bits are all 0 in practice).

f500a10b2e Refactor base_alloc() to guarantee demand-zeroed memory.
Refactor base_alloc() to guarantee that allocations are carved from
demand-zeroed virtual memory.  This supports sparse data structures such
as multi-page radix tree nodes.

Enhance base_alloc() to keep track of fragments which were too small to
support previous allocation requests, and try to consume them during
subsequent requests.  This becomes important when request sizes commonly
approach or exceed the chunk size (as could radix tree node
allocations).

return the same results (e.g. in simple test cases).

6505733012 Make opt.lg_dirty_mult work as documented
The documentation for opt.lg_dirty_mult says:
    Per-arena minimum ratio (log base 2) of active to dirty
    pages.  Some dirty unused pages may be allowed to accumulate,
    within the limit set by the ratio (or one chunk worth of dirty
    pages, whichever is greater) (...)

The restriction in parentheses currently doesn't happen. This makes
jemalloc aggressively madvise(), which in turns increases the amount
of page faults significantly.

For instance, this resulted in several(!) hundred(!) milliseconds
startup regression on Firefox for Android.

This may require further tweaking, but starting with actually doing
what the documentation says is a good start.

4581b97809 Implement metadata statistics.
There are three categories of metadata:

- Base allocations are used for bootstrap-sensitive internal allocator
  data structures.
- Arena chunk headers comprise pages which track the states of the
  non-metadata pages.
- Internal allocations differ from application-originated allocations
  in that they are for internal use, and that they are omitted from heap
  profiles.

The metadata statistics comprise the metadata categories as follows:

- stats.metadata: All metadata -- base + arena chunk headers + internal
  allocations.
- stats.arenas.<i>.metadata.mapped: Arena chunk headers.
- stats.arenas.<i>.metadata.allocated: Internal allocations.  This is
  reported separately from the other metadata statistics because it
  overlaps with the allocated and active statistics, whereas the other
  metadata statistics do not.

Base allocations are not reported separately, though their magnitude can
be computed by subtracting the arena-specific metadata.

This resolves #163.

879e76a9e5 teach the dss chunk allocator to handle new_addr
This provides in-place expansion of huge allocations when the end of the
allocation is at the end of the sbrk heap. There's already the ability
to extend in-place via recycled chunks but this handles the initial
growth of the heap via repeated vector / string reallocations.

A possible future extension could allow realloc to go from the following:

    | huge allocation | recycled chunks |
                                        ^ dss_end

To a larger allocation built from recycled *and* new chunks:

    |                      huge allocation                      |
                                                                ^ dss_end

Doing that would involve teaching the chunk recycling code to request
new chunks to satisfy the request. The chunk_dss code wouldn't require
any further changes.

    #include <stdlib.h>

    int main(void) {
        size_t chunk = 4 * 1024 * 1024;
        void *ptr = NULL;
        for (size_t size = chunk; size < chunk * 128; size *= 2) {
            ptr = realloc(ptr, size);
            if (!ptr) return 1;
        }
    }

dss:secondary: 0.083s
dss:primary: 0.083s

After:

dss:secondary: 0.083s
dss:primary: 0.003s

The dss heap grows in the upwards direction, so the oldest chunks are at
the low addresses and they are used first. Linux prefers to grow the
mmap heap downwards, so the trick will not work in the *current* mmap
chunk allocator as a huge allocation will only be at the top of the heap
in a contrived case.

Remove code in arena_dalloc_bin_run() that preserved the "clean" state

small.

Remove the nextind field from arena_run_t now that it is no longer
needed, and change arena_run_t's bin field (arena_bin_t *) to binind
(index_t).  These two changes remove 8 bytes of chunk header overhead
per page, which saves 1/512 of all arena chunk memory.

8bb3198f72 Refactor/fix arenas manipulation.
Abstract arenas access to use arena_get() (or a0get() where appropriate)
rather than directly reading e.g. arenas[ind].  Prior to the addition of
the arenas.extend mallctl, the worst possible outcome of directly
accessing arenas was a stale read, but arenas.extend may allocate and
assign a new array to arenas.

Add a tsd-based arenas_cache, which amortizes arenas reads.  This
introduces some subtle bootstrapping issues, with tsd_boot() now being
split into tsd_boot[01]() to support tsd wrapper allocation
bootstrapping, as well as an arenas_cache_bypass tsd variable which
dynamically terminates allocation of arenas_cache itself.

Promote a0malloc(), a0calloc(), and a0free() to be generally useful for
internal allocation, and use them in several places (more may be
appropriate).

Abstract arena->nthreads management and fix a missing decrement during
thread destruction (recent tsd refactoring left arenas_cleanup()
unused).

Change arena_choose() to propagate OOM, and handle OOM in all callers.
This is important for providing consistent allocation behavior when the
MALLOCX_ARENA() flag is being used.  Prior to this fix, it was possible
for an OOM to result in allocation silently allocating from a different
arena than the one specified.

a95018ee81 Attempt to expand huge allocations in-place.
This adds support for expanding huge allocations in-place by requesting
memory at a specific address from the chunk allocator.

It's currently only implemented for the chunk recycling path, although
in theory it could also be done by optimistically allocating new chunks.
On Linux, it could attempt an in-place mremap. However, that won't work
in practice since the heap is grown downwards and memory is not unmapped
(in a normal build, at least).

Repeated vector reallocation micro-benchmark:

    #include <string.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>

    int main(void) {
        for (size_t i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
            void *ptr = NULL;
            size_t old_size = 0;
            for (size_t size = 4; size < (1 << 30); size *= 2) {
                ptr = realloc(ptr, size);
                if (!ptr) return 1;
                memset(ptr + old_size, 0xff, size - old_size);
                old_size = size;
            }
            free(ptr);
        }
    }

The glibc allocator fails to do any in-place reallocations on this
benchmark once it passes the M_MMAP_THRESHOLD (default 128k) but it
elides the cost of copies via mremap, which is currently not something
that jemalloc can use.

With this improvement, jemalloc still fails to do any in-place huge
reallocations for the first outer loop, but then succeeds 100% of the
time for the remaining 99 iterations. The time spent doing allocations
and copies drops down to under 5%, with nearly all of it spent doing
purging + faulting (when huge pages are disabled) and the array memset.

An improved mremap API (MREMAP_RETAIN - #138) would be far more general
but this is a portable optimization and would still be useful on Linux
for xallocx.

f11a6776c7 Fix OOM-related regression in arena_tcache_fill_small().
Fix an OOM-related regression in arena_tcache_fill_small() that caused
cache corruption that would almost certainly expose the application to
undefined behavior, usually in the form of an allocation request
returning an already-allocated region, or somewhat less likely, a freed
region that had already been returned to the arena, thus making it
available to the arena for any purpose.

This regression was introduced by
9c43c13a35 (Reverse tcache fill order.),
and was present in all releases from 2.2.0 through 3.6.0.

This resolves #98.

f04a0bef99 Fix prof regressions.
Fix prof regressions related to tdata (main per thread profiling data
structure) destruction:
- Deadlock.  The fix for this was intended to be part of
  20c31deaae (Test prof.reset mallctl and
  fix numerous discovered bugs.) but the fix was left incomplete.
- Destruction race.  Detaching tdata just prior to destruction without
  holding the tdatas lock made it possible for another thread to destroy
  the tdata out from under the thread that was on its way to doing so.

029d44cf8b Fix tsd cleanup regressions.
Fix tsd cleanup regressions that were introduced in
5460aa6f66 (Convert all tsd variables to
reside in a single tsd structure.).  These regressions were twofold:

1) tsd_tryget() should never (and need never) return NULL.  Rename it to
   tsd_fetch() and simplify all callers.
2) tsd_*_set() must only be called when tsd is in the nominal state,
   because cleanup happens during the nominal-->purgatory transition,
   and re-initialization must not happen while in the purgatory state.
   Add tsd_nominal() and use it as needed.  Note that tsd_*{p,}_get()
   can still be used as long as no re-initialization that would require
   cleanup occurs.  This means that e.g. the thread_allocated counter
   can be updated unconditionally.

0c5dd03e88 Move small run metadata into the arena chunk header.
Move small run metadata into the arena chunk header, with multiple
expected benefits:
- Lower run fragmentation due to reduced run sizes; runs are more likely
  to completely drain when there are fewer total regions.
- Improved cache behavior.  Prior to this change, run headers were
  always page-aligned, which put extra pressure on some CPU cache sets.
  The degree to which this was a problem was hardware dependent, but it
  likely hurt some even for the most advanced modern hardware.
- Buffer overruns/underruns are less likely to corrupt allocator
  metadata.
- Size classes between 4 KiB and 16 KiB become reasonable to support
  without any special handling, and the runs are small enough that dirty
  unused pages aren't a significant concern.

6ef80d68f0 Fix profile dumping race.
Fix a race that caused a non-critical assertion failure.  To trigger the
race, a thread had to be part way through initializing a new sample,
such that it was discoverable by the dumping thread, but not yet linked
into its gctx by the time a later dump phase would normally have reset
its state to 'nominal'.

Additionally, lock access to the state field during modification to
transition to the dumping state.  It's not apparent that this oversight
could have caused an actual problem due to outer locking that protects
the dumping machinery, but the added locking pedantically follows the
stated locking protocol for the state field.

4cfe55166e Add support for sized deallocation.
This adds a new `sdallocx` function to the external API, allowing the
size to be passed by the caller.  It avoids some extra reads in the
thread cache fast path.  In the case where stats are enabled, this
avoids the work of calculating the size from the pointer.

An assertion validates the size that's passed in, so enabling debugging
will allow users of the API to debug cases where an incorrect size is
passed in.

The performance win for a contrived microbenchmark doing an allocation
and immediately freeing it is ~10%.  It may have a different impact on a
real workload.

Convert PROF_ALLOC_PREP() to prof_alloc_prep(), since precise backtrace
depth within jemalloc functions is no longer an issue (pprof prunes
irrelevant frames).

Implement mallctl's:
- prof.reset implements full sample data reset, and optional change of
  sample interval.
- prof.lg_sample reads the current sample interval (opt.lg_prof_sample
  was the permanent source of truth prior to prof.reset).
- thread.prof.name provides naming capability for threads within heap
  profile dumps.
- thread.prof.active makes it possible to activate/deactivate heap
  profiling for individual threads.

Modify the heap dump files to contain per thread heap profile data.
This change is incompatible with the existing pprof, which will require
enhancements to read and process the enriched data.

e2deab7a75 Refactor huge allocation to be managed by arenas.
Refactor huge allocation to be managed by arenas (though the global
red-black tree of huge allocations remains for lookup during
deallocation).  This is the logical conclusion of recent changes that 1)
made per arena dss precedence apply to huge allocation, and 2) made it
possible to replace the per arena chunk allocation/deallocation
functions.

Remove the top level huge stats, and replace them with per arena huge
stats.

Normalize function names and types to *dalloc* (some were *dealloc*).

Remove the --enable-mremap option.  As jemalloc currently operates, this
is a performace regression for some applications, but planned work to
logarithmically space huge size classes should provide similar amortized
performance.  The motivation for this change was that mremap-based huge
reallocation forced leaky abstractions that prevented refactoring.

Make promotion of sampled small objects to large objects mandatory, so
that profiling metadata can always be stored in the chunk map, rather
than requiring one pointer per small region in each small-region page
run.  In practice the non-prof-promote code was only useful when using
jemalloc to track all objects and report them as leaks at program exit.
However, Valgrind is at least as good a tool for this particular use
case.

Furthermore, the non-prof-promote code is getting in the way of
some optimizations that will make heap profiling much cheaper for the
predominant use case (sampling a small representative proportion of all
allocations).

4 MB chunks, the arena_chunk_t->map is ~ 32 KB (1024 pages
in the chunk, 4 8 byte pointers in arena_chunk_map_t). This
means there's only a 1/8 chance of the page containing
chunk->arena also comtaining the map bits.

20a8c78bfe Fix a crashing case where arena_chunk_init_hard returns NULL.
This happens when it fails to allocate a new chunk. Which
arena_chunk_alloc then passes into arena_avail_insert without any
checks. This then causes a crash when arena_avail_insert tries
to check chunk->ndirty.

This was introduced by the refactoring of arena_chunk_alloc
which previously would have returned NULL immediately after
calling chunk_alloc. This is now the return from
arena_chunk_init_hard so we need to check that return, and
not continue if it was NULL.

772163b4f3 Add heap profiling tests.
Fix a regression in prof_dump_ctx() due to an uninitized variable.  This
was caused by revision 4f37ef693e, so no
releases are affected.

4f37ef693e Refactor prof_dump() to reduce contention.
Refactor prof_dump() to use a two pass algorithm, and prof_leave() prior
to the second pass.  This avoids write(2) system calls while holding
critical prof resources.

Fix prof_dump() to close the dump file descriptor for all relevant error
paths.

Minimize the size of prof-related static buffers when prof is disabled.
This saves roughly 65 KiB of application memory for non-prof builds.

Refactor prof_ctx_init() out of prof_lookup_global().

b2c31660be Extract profiling code from [re]allocation functions.
Extract profiling code from malloc(), imemalign(), calloc(), realloc(),
mallocx(), rallocx(), and xallocx().  This slightly reduces the amount
of code compiled into the fast paths, but the primary benefit is the
combinatorial complexity reduction.

Simplify iralloc[t]() by creating a separate ixalloc() that handles the
no-move cases.

Further simplify [mrxn]allocx() (and by implication [mrn]allocm()) to
make request size overflows due to size class and/or alignment
constraints trigger undefined behavior (detected by debug-only
assertions).

Report ENOMEM rather than EINVAL if an OOM occurs during heap profiling
backtrace creation in imemalign().  This bug impacted posix_memalign()
and aligned_alloc().

e18c25d23d Add util unit tests, and fix discovered bugs.
Add unit tests for pow2_ceil(), malloc_strtoumax(), and
malloc_snprintf().

Fix numerous bugs in malloc_strotumax() error handling/reporting.  These
bugs could have caused application-visible issues for some seldom used
(0X... and 0... prefixes) or malformed MALLOC_CONF or mallctl() argument
strings, but otherwise they had no impact.

Fix numerous bugs in malloc_snprintf().  These bugs were not exercised
by existing malloc_*printf() calls, so they had no impact.

b954bc5d3a Convert rtree from (void *) to (uint8_t) storage.
Reduce rtree memory usage by storing booleans (1 byte each) rather than
pointers.  The rtree code is only used to record whether jemalloc manages
a chunk of memory, so there's no need to store pointers in the rtree.

Increase rtree node size to 64 KiB in order to reduce tree depth from 13
to 3 on 64-bit systems.  The conversion to more compact leaf nodes was
enough by itself to make the rtree depth 1 on 32-bit systems; due to the
fact that root nodes are smaller than the specified node size if
possible, the node size change has no impact on 32-bit systems (assuming
default chunk size).
