4403c9ab44 Remove --disable-tcache.
Simplify configuration by removing the --disable-tcache option, but
replace the testing for that configuration with
--with-malloc-conf=tcache:false.

Fix the thread.arena and thread.tcache.flush mallctls to work correctly
if tcache is disabled.

This partially resolves #580.

881fbf762f Prefer old/low extent_t structures during reuse.
Rather than using a LIFO queue to track available extent_t structures,
use a red-black tree, and always choose the oldest/lowest available
during reuse.

64e458f5cd Implement two-phase decay-based purging.
Split decay-based purging into two phases, the first of which uses lazy
purging to convert dirty pages to "muzzy", and the second of which uses
forced purging, decommit, or unmapping to convert pages to clean or
destroy them altogether.  Not all operating systems support lazy
purging, yet the application may provide extent hooks that implement
lazy purging, so care must be taken to dynamically omit the first phase
when necessary.

The mallctl interfaces change as follows:
- opt.decay_time --> opt.{dirty,muzzy}_decay_time
- arena.<i>.decay_time --> arena.<i>.{dirty,muzzy}_decay_time
- arenas.decay_time --> arenas.{dirty,muzzy}_decay_time
- stats.arenas.<i>.pdirty --> stats.arenas.<i>.p{dirty,muzzy}
- stats.arenas.<i>.{npurge,nmadvise,purged} -->
  stats.arenas.<i>.{dirty,muzzy}_{npurge,nmadvise,purged}

This resolves #521.

removed in 6.0.0).

a0dd3a4483 Implement per arena base allocators.
Add/rename related mallctls:
- Add stats.arenas.<i>.base .
- Rename stats.arenas.<i>.metadata to stats.arenas.<i>.internal .
- Add stats.arenas.<i>.resident .

Modify the arenas.extend mallctl to take an optional (extent_hooks_t *)
argument so that it is possible for all base allocations to be serviced
by the specified extent hooks.

This resolves #463.

a6e86810d8 Refactor purging and splitting/merging.
Split purging into lazy and forced variants.  Use the forced variant for
zeroing dss.

Add support for NULL function pointers as an opt-out mechanism for the
dalloc, commit, decommit, purge_lazy, purge_forced, split, and merge
fields of extent_hooks_t.

Add short-circuiting checks in large_ralloc_no_move_{shrink,expand}() so
that no attempt is made if splitting/merging is not supported.

This resolves #268.

d4ce47e7fb Change html manual encoding to UTF-8.
This works around GitHub's broken automatic reformatting from ISO-8859-1
to UTF-8 when serving static html.

Remove <parameter/> from e.g. <function>malloc<parameter/></function>,
add a custom template that does not append parentheses, and manually
specify them, e.g. <function>malloc()</function>.  This works around
apparently broken XSL formatting that causes <code/> to be emitted in
html (rather than <code></code>, or better yet, nothing).

243f7a0508 Implement decay-based unused dirty page purging.
This is an alternative to the existing ratio-based unused dirty page
purging, and is intended to eventually become the sole purging
mechanism.

- opt.decay_time
- arena.<i>.decay
- arena.<i>.decay_time
- arenas.decay_time
- stats.arenas.<i>.decay_time

8fadb1a8c2 Implement chunk hook support for page run commit/decommit.
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.

b49a334a64 Generalize chunk management hooks.
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.
