Fix huge_ralloc_no_move_expand() to update the extent's zeroed attribute
based on the intersection of the previous value and that of the newly
merged trailing extent.
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.
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.
This is a broader application of optimizations to malloc() and free() in
f4a0f32d34 (Fast-path improvement:
reduce # of branches and unnecessary operations.).
This resolves#321.
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.).
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.
- Combine multiple runtime branches into a single malloc_slow check.
- Avoid calling arena_choose / size2index / index2size on fast path.
- A few micro optimizations.
Zero all trailing bytes of large allocations when
--enable-cache-oblivious configure option is enabled. This regression
was introduced by 8a03cf039c (Implement
cache index randomization for large allocations.).
Zero trailing bytes of huge allocations when resizing from/to a size
class that is not a multiple of the chunk size.
Add arena_prof_tctx_reset() and use it instead of arena_prof_tctx_set()
when resetting the tctx pointer during reallocation, which happens
whenever an originally sampled reallocated object is not sampled during
reallocation.
This regression was introduced by
594c759f37 (Optimize
arena_prof_tctx_set().)
When junk filling is enabled, shrinking an allocation fills the bytes
that were previously allocated but now aren't. Purging the chunk before
doing that is just a waste of time.
This resolves#260.
Fix chunk purge hook calls for in-place huge shrinking reallocation to
specify the old chunk size rather than the new chunk size. This bug
caused no correctness issues for the default chunk purge function, but
was visible to custom functions set via the "arena.<i>.chunk_hooks"
mallctl.
This resolves#264.
Cascade from decommit to purge when purging unused dirty pages, so that
it is possible to decommit cleaned memory rather than just purging. For
non-Windows debug builds, decommit runs rather than purging them, since
this causes access of deallocated runs to segfault.
This resolves#251.
Add the "arena.<i>.chunk_hooks" mallctl, which replaces and expands on
the "arena.<i>.chunk.{alloc,dalloc,purge}" mallctls. The chunk hooks
allow control over chunk allocation/deallocation, decommit/commit,
purging, and splitting/merging, such that the application can rely on
jemalloc's internal chunk caching and retaining functionality, yet
implement a variety of chunk management mechanisms and policies.
Merge the chunks_[sz]ad_{mmap,dss} red-black trees into
chunks_[sz]ad_retained. This slightly reduces how hard jemalloc tries
to honor the dss precedence setting; prior to this change the precedence
setting was also consulted when recycling chunks.
Fix chunk purging. Don't purge chunks in arena_purge_stashed(); instead
deallocate them in arena_unstash_purged(), so that the dirty memory
linkage remains valid until after the last time it is used.
This resolves#176 and #201.
Fix huge_ralloc_no_move() to succeed if an allocation request results in
the same usable size as the existing allocation, even if the request
size is smaller than the usable size. This bug did not cause
correctness issues, but it could cause unnecessary moves during
reallocation.
huge_ralloc() passes a size that may not be precisely a size class, so
make huge_palloc() handle the more general case of a size input rather
than usize.
This regression appears to have been introduced by the addition of
in-place huge reallocation; as such it was never incorporated into a
release.
Fix the shrinking case of huge_ralloc_no_move_similar() to purge the
correct number of pages, at the correct offset. This regression was
introduced by 8d6a3e8321 (Implement
dynamic per arena control over dirty page purging.).
Fix huge_ralloc_no_move_shrink() to purge the correct number of pages.
This bug was introduced by 9673983443
(Purge/zero sub-chunk huge allocations as necessary.).
Add mallctls:
- arenas.lg_dirty_mult is initialized via opt.lg_dirty_mult, and can be
modified to change the initial lg_dirty_mult setting for newly created
arenas.
- arena.<i>.lg_dirty_mult controls an individual arena's dirty page
purging threshold, and synchronously triggers any purging that may be
necessary to maintain the constraint.
- arena.<i>.chunk.purge allows the per arena dirty page purging function
to be replaced.
This resolves#93.
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.
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.
Add the MALLOCX_TCACHE() and MALLOCX_TCACHE_NONE macros, which can be
used in conjunction with the *allocx() API.
Add the tcache.create, tcache.flush, and tcache.destroy mallctls.
This resolves#145.
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.
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.
Fix OOM cleanup in huge_palloc() to call idalloct() rather than
base_node_dalloc(). This bug is a result of incomplete refactoring, and
has no impact other than leaking memory during OOM.
The size of the source allocation is known at this point, so reading the
chunk header can be avoided for the small size class fast path. This is
not very useful right now, but it provides a significant performance
boost with an alternate ralloc entry point taking the old size.
Purge trailing pages during shrinking huge reallocation when resulting
size is not a multiple of the chunk size. Similarly, zero pages if
necessary during growing huge reallocation when the resulting size is
not a multiple of the chunk size.
Add per size class huge allocation statistics, and normalize various
stats:
- Change the arenas.nlruns type from size_t to unsigned.
- Add the arenas.nhchunks and arenas.hchunks.<i>.size mallctl's.
- Replace the stats.arenas.<i>.bins.<j>.allocated mallctl with
stats.arenas.<i>.bins.<j>.curregs .
- Add the stats.arenas.<i>.hchunks.<j>.nmalloc,
stats.arenas.<i>.hchunks.<j>.ndalloc,
stats.arenas.<i>.hchunks.<j>.nrequests, and
stats.arenas.<i>.hchunks.<j>.curhchunks mallctl's.
Add:
--with-lg-page
--with-lg-page-sizes
--with-lg-size-class-group
--with-lg-quantum
Get rid of STATIC_PAGE_SHIFT, in favor of directly setting LG_PAGE.
Fix various edge conditions exposed by the configure options.
This avoids grabbing the base mutex, as a step towards fine-grained
locking for huge allocations. The thread cache also provides a tiny
(~3%) improvement for serial huge allocations.
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.
