9790b9667f Remove the *allocm() API, which is superceded by the *allocx() API. 2014-04-14 22:32:31 -07:00

3477991440 Fix name mangling issues.
Move je_* definitions from jemalloc_macros.h.in to jemalloc_defs.h.in,
because only the latter is an autoconf header (#undef substitution
occurs).

Fix unit tests to use automatic mangling, so that e.g. mallocx is
macro-substituted to becom jet_mallocx.

d82a5e6a34 Implement the *allocx() API.
Implement the *allocx() API, which is a successor to the *allocm() API.
The *allocx() functions are slightly simpler to use because they have
fewer parameters, they directly return the results of primary interest,
and mallocx()/rallocx() avoid the strict aliasing pitfall that
allocm()/rallocx() share with posix_memalign().  The following code
violates strict aliasing rules:

    foo_t *foo;
    allocm((void **)&foo, NULL, 42, 0);

whereas the following is safe:

    foo_t *foo;
    void *p;
    allocm(&p, NULL, 42, 0);
    foo = (foo_t *)p;

mallocx() does not have this problem:

    foo_t *foo = (foo_t *)mallocx(42, 0);

0f4f1efd94 Add mq (message queue) to test infrastructure.
Add mtx (mutex) to test infrastructure, in order to avoid bootstrapping
complications that would result from directly using malloc_mutex.

Rename test infrastructure's thread abstraction from je_thread to thd.

Fix some header ordering issues.
