Fix or suppress the remaining warnings generated by static analysis.
This is a necessary step before we can incorporate static analysis into
CI. Where possible, I've preferred to modify the code itself instead of
just disabling the warning with a magic comment, so that if we decide to
use different static analysis tools in the future we will be covered
against them raising similar warnings.
In #2433, I inadvertently introduced a regression which causes the use of
uninitialized data. Namely, the control path I added for the safety
check in `arena_prof_info_get` neglected to set `prof_info->alloc_tctx`
when the check fails, resulting in `prof_info.alloc_tctx` being
uninitialized [when it is read at the end of
`prof_free`](90176f8a87/include/jemalloc/internal/prof_inlines.h (L272)).
Static analysis flagged this. It's possible to segfault in the
`*_tree_remove` function generated by `rb_gen`, as `nodep` may
still be `NULL` after the initial for loop. I can confirm from reviewing
the fleetwide coredump data that this was in fact being hit in
production, primarily through `tctx_tree_remove`, and much more rarely
through `gctx_tree_remove`.
instead of changing mmap_flags which makes the change permanent. This was
enforcing large alignments for allocations that did not need it causing
fragmentation. Reported by Andreas Gustafsson.
This is in preparation for upcoming changes I plan to make to this
logic. Extracting it into a common function will make this easier and
less error-prone, and cleans up the existing code regardless.
Running a simple Ruby and Python execution je_malloc_default and
do_rallocx() in the resulting SVG / text output. Prune these, too.

It appears that this was a simple mistake where `hpa_shard_disable` was
being called instead of `hpa_shard_destroy`. At present
`hpa_shard_destroy` is not called anywhere at all outside of test-cases,
which further suggests that this is a bug. @davidtgoldblatt noted
however that since HPA is disabled for manual arenas and we don't
support destruction for auto arenas that presently there is no way to
actually trigger this bug. Nonetheless, it should be fixed.
None of these are harmful, and they are almost certainly optimized
away by the compiler. The motivation for fixing them anyway is that
we'd like to enable static analysis as part of CI, and the first step
towards that is resolving the warnings it produces at present.
Static analysis flagged this issue. Here is a minimal program which
causes a segfault within Jemalloc:
```
#include <jemalloc/jemalloc.h>
const char *malloc_conf = "prof:true";
int main() {
mallctl("prof.prefix", NULL, NULL, NULL, 0);
}
```
Fixed by checking if `prefix` is `NULL`.
This tests the combination of the prof_recent and thread_name features.
Verified that it catches the issue being fixed in this PR.
Also explicitly set thread name in test/unit/prof_recent. This fixes the name
testing when no default thread name is set (e.g. FreeBSD).
As pointed out in #2434, the thread_name in prof_tdata_t was changed in #2407.
This also requires an update for the prof_recent dump, specifically the emitter
expects a "char **" which is fixed in this commit.
Static analysis flagged this. `extent_record` was passing `NULL` as the
value for `coalesced` to `extent_try_coalesce`, which in turn passes
that argument to `extent_try_coalesce_impl`, where it is written to
without checking if it is `NULL`. I can confirm from reviewing the
fleetwide coredump data that this was in fact being hit in production.
The codebase is already very disciplined in making any function which
can be `static`, but there are a few that appear to have slipped through
the cracks.
`edata_cmp_summary_comp` is one of the very hottest functions, taking up
3% of all time spent inside Jemalloc. I noticed that all existing
callsites rely only on the sign of the value returned by this function,
so I came up with this equivalent branchless implementation which
preserves this property. After empirical measurement, I have found that
this implementation is 30% faster, therefore representing a 1% speed-up
to the allocator as a whole.
At @interwq's suggestion, I've applied the same optimization to
`edata_esnead_comp` in case this function becomes hotter in the future.
This codepath may generate deferred work when the HPA is enabled.

introduced this](https://github.com/jemalloc/jemalloc/pull/2107#discussion_r699770967)
which prevented a similarly incorrect `assert` from being added elsewhere.
It appears like a simple typo means we're unconditionally overwriting
some fields in hpa_from_pai when asserts are enabled. From hpa_shard_init,
it looks like these fields have these values anyway, so this shouldn't
cause bugs, but if something is wrong it seems better to have these
asserts in place.
See issue #2412.
Decay should not be triggered during reentrant calls (may cause lock order
reversal / deadlocks). Added a delay_trigger flag to the tickers to bypass
decay when rentrancy_level is not zero.
This lowered the sizeof(prof_tdata_t) from 200 to 192 which is a round size
class. Afterwards the tdata_t size remain unchanged with the last commit, which
effectively inlined the storage of thread names for free.
The previous approach managed the thread name in a separate buffer, which causes
races because the thread name update (triggered by new samples) can happen at
the same time as prof dumping (which reads the thread names) -- these two
operations are under separate locks to avoid blocking each other. Implemented
the thread name storage as part of the tdata struct, which resolves the lifetime
issue and also avoids internal alloc / dalloc during prof_sample.
Also fixes what looks like an off by one error in the lazy aux list
merge part of the code that previously never touched the last node in
the aux list.
It turns out that the previous commit did not suffice since the
JEMALLOC_SYS_NOTHROW definition also causes the same exception specification
errors as JEMALLOC_USE_CXX_THROW did:

On systems using the musl C library we have to omit the exception specification
on malloc function family like it's done for MacOS, FreeBSD and OpenBSD.
The current thread name reading path updates the name every time, which requires
both alloc and dalloc -- and the temporary NULL value in the middle causes races
where the prof dump read path gets NULLed in the middle.
Minimize the changes in this commit to isolate the bugfix testing; will also
refactor the whole thread name paths later.
