This pulls out the various abstractions where some stats counter is sometimes an
atomic, sometimes a plain variable, sometimes always protected by a lock,
sometimes protected by reads but not writes, etc. With this change, these cases
are treated consistently, and access patterns tagged.
In the process, we fix a few missed-update bugs (where one caller assumes
"protected-by-a-lock" semantics and another does not).
This is logically at a higher level of the stack; extent should just allocate
things at the page-level; it shouldn't care exactly why the callers wants a
given number of pages.
Previously, large allocations in tcaches would have their sizes reduced during
stats estimation. Added a test, which fails before this change but passes now.
This fixes a bug introduced in 5934846612, which
was itself fixing a bug introduced in 9c0549007d.
This lets us put more allocations on an "almost as fast" path after a flush.
This results in around a 4% reduction in malloc cycles in prod workloads
(corresponding to about a 0.1% reduction in overall cycles).
With this, we track all of the empty, full, and low water states together. This
simplifies a lot of the tracking logic, since we now don't need the
cache_bin_info_t for state queries (except for some debugging).
I.e. the tcache code just calls a cache-bin function to finish flush (and move
pointers around, etc.). It doesn't directly access the cache-bin's owned memory
any more.
Previously, we took an array of cache_bin_info_ts and an index, and dereferenced
ourselves. But infos for other cache_bins aren't relevant to any particular
cache bin, so that should be the caller's job.
This is debug only and we keep it off the fast path. Moving it here simplifies
the internal logic.
This never tries to junk on regions that were shrunk via xallocx. I think this
is fine for two reasons:
- The shrunk-with-xallocx case is rare.
- We don't always do that anyway before this diff (it depends on the opt
settings and extent hooks in effect).
The small and large pathways share most of their logic, even if some of the
individual operations are different. We pull out the common logic into a
force-inlined function, and then specialize twice, once for each value of
"small".
