These were all size_ts, so we have atomics support for them on all platforms, so
the conversion is straightforward.
Left non-atomic is curlextents, which AFAICT is not used atomically anywhere.
The new feature, opt.percpu_arena, determines thread-arena association
dynamically based CPU id. Three modes are supported: "percpu", "phycpu"
and disabled.
"percpu" uses the current core id (with help from sched_getcpu())
directly as the arena index, while "phycpu" will assign threads on the
same physical CPU to the same arena. In other words, "percpu" means # of
arenas == # of CPUs, while "phycpu" has # of arenas == 1/2 * (# of
CPUs). Note that no runtime check on whether hyper threading is enabled
is added yet.
When enabled, threads will be migrated between arenas when a CPU change
is detected. In the current design, to reduce overhead from reading CPU
id, each arena tracks the thread accessed most recently. When a new
thread comes in, we will read CPU id and update arena if necessary.
This is part of a broader change to make header files better represent the
dependencies between one another (see
https://github.com/jemalloc/jemalloc/issues/533). It breaks up component headers
into smaller parts that can be made to have a simpler dependency graph.
For the autogenerated headers (smoothstep.h and size_classes.h), no splitting
was necessary, so I didn't add support to emit multiple headers.
