Algorithmically, a size greater than 1024 ZB could access one-past-the-end of
the sizes array. This couldn't really happen since SIZE_MAX is less than 1024
ZB on all platforms we support (and we pick the arguments to this function to be
reasonable anyways), but it's not like there's any reason *not* to fix it,
either.
The goal of `qr_meld()` is to change the following four fields
`(a->prev, a->prev->next, b->prev, b->prev->next)` from the values
`(a->prev, a, b->prev, b)` to `(b->prev, b, a->prev, a)`.
This commit changes
```
a->prev->next = b;
b->prev->next = a;
temp = a->prev;
a->prev = b->prev;
b->prev = temp;
```
to
```
temp = a->prev;
a->prev = b->prev;
b->prev = temp;
a->prev->next = a;
b->prev->next = b;
```
The benefit is that we can use `b->prev->next` for `temp`, and so
there's no need to pass in `a_type`.
The restriction is that `b` cannot be a `qr_next()` macro, so users
of `qr_meld()` must pay attention. (Before this change, neither `a`
nor `b` could be a `qr_next()` macro.)
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).
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).
