db72272bef Use rtree-based chunk lookups rather than pointer bit twiddling.
Look up chunk metadata via the radix tree, rather than using
CHUNK_ADDR2BASE().

Propagate pointer's containing extent.

Minimize extent lookups by doing a single lookup (e.g. in free()) and
propagating the pointer's extent into nearly all the functions that may
need it.

c1e00ef2a6 Resolve bootstrapping issues when embedded in FreeBSD libc.
b2c0d6322d (Add witness, a simple online
locking validator.) caused a broad propagation of tsd throughout the
internal API, but tsd_fetch() was designed to fail prior to tsd
bootstrapping.  Fix this by splitting tsd_t into non-nullable tsd_t and
nullable tsdn_t, and modifying all internal APIs that do not critically
rely on tsd to take nullable pointers.  Furthermore, add the
tsd_booted_get() function so that tsdn_fetch() can probe whether tsd
bootstrapping is complete and return NULL if not.  All dangerous
conversions of nullable pointers are tsdn_tsd() calls that assert-fail
on invalid conversion.

90827a3f3e Fix huge_palloc() regression.
Split arena_choose() into arena_[i]choose() and use arena_ichoose() for
arena lookup during internal allocation.  This fixes huge_palloc() so
that it always succeeds during extent node allocation.

This regression was introduced by
66cd953514 (Do not allocate metadata via
non-auto arenas, nor tcaches.).

66cd953514 Do not allocate metadata via non-auto arenas, nor tcaches.
This assures that all internally allocated metadata come from the
first opt_narenas arenas, i.e. the automatically multiplexed arenas.

243f7a0508 Implement decay-based unused dirty page purging.
This is an alternative to the existing ratio-based unused dirty page
purging, and is intended to eventually become the sole purging
mechanism.

Add mallctls:
- opt.purge
- opt.decay_time
- arena.<i>.decay
- arena.<i>.decay_time
- arenas.decay_time
- stats.arenas.<i>.decay_time

This resolves #325.

836bbe9951 Impose a minimum tcache count for small size classes.
Now that small allocation runs have fewer regions due to run metadata
residing in chunk headers, an explicit minimum tcache count is needed to
make sure that tcache adequately amortizes synchronization overhead.

2c5cb613df Introduce two new modes of junk filling: "alloc" and "free".
In addition to true/false, opt.junk can now be either "alloc" or "free",
giving applications the possibility of junking memory only on allocation
or deallocation.

This resolves #172.

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.

155bfa7da1 Normalize size classes.
Normalize size classes to use the same number of size classes per size
doubling (currently hard coded to 4), across the intire range of size
classes.  Small size classes already used this spacing, but in order to
support this change, additional small size classes now fill [4 KiB .. 16
KiB).  Large size classes range from [16 KiB .. 4 MiB).  Huge size
classes now support non-multiples of the chunk size in order to fill (4
MiB .. 16 MiB).

16854ebeb7 Don't disable tcache for lazy-lock.
Don't disable tcache when lazy-lock is configured.  There already exists
a mechanism to disable tcache, but doing so automatically due to
lazy-lock causes surprising performance behavior.

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.

23fdf8b359 mark some conditions as unlikely
* assertion failure
* malloc_init failure
* malloc not already initialized (in malloc_init)
* running in valgrind
* thread cache disabled at runtime

Clang and GCC already consider a comparison with NULL or -1 to be cold,
so many branches (out-of-memory) are already correctly considered as
cold and marking them is not important.

9b0cbf0850 Remove support for non-prof-promote heap profiling metadata.
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).

6e62984ef6 Don't junk-fill reallocations unless usize changes.
Don't junk fill reallocations for which the request size is less than
the current usable size, but not enough smaller to cause a size class
change.  Unlike malloc()/calloc()/realloc(), *allocx() contractually
treats the full usize as the allocation, so a caller can ask for zeroed
memory via mallocx() and a series of rallocx() calls that all specify
MALLOCX_ZERO, and be assured that all newly allocated bytes will be
zeroed and made available to the application without danger of allocator
mutation until the size class decreases enough to cause usize reduction.

38067483c5 Tighten valgrind integration.
Tighten valgrind integration such that immediately after memory is
validated or zeroed, valgrind is told to forget the memory's 'defined'
state.  The only place newly allocated memory should be left marked as
'defined' is in the public functions (e.g. calloc() and realloc()).

122449b073 Implement Valgrind support, redzones, and quarantine.
Implement Valgrind support, as well as the redzone and quarantine
features, which help Valgrind detect memory errors.  Redzones are only
implemented for small objects because the changes necessary to support
redzones around large and huge objects are complicated by in-place
reallocation, to the point that it isn't clear that the maintenance
burden is worth the incremental improvement to Valgrind support.

09a0769ba7 Work around TLS deallocation via free().
glibc uses memalign()/free() to allocate/deallocate TLS, which means
that it is unsafe to set TLS variables as a side effect of free() --
they may already be deallocated.  Work around this by avoiding
tcache_create() within free().
