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.
rtree-based extent lookups remain more expensive than chunk-based run
lookups, but with this optimization the fast path slowdown is ~3 CPU
cycles per metadata lookup (on Intel Core i7-4980HQ), versus ~11 cycles
prior. The path caching speedup tends to degrade gracefully unless
allocated memory is spread far apart (as is the case when using a
mixture of sbrk() and mmap()).
b2c0d6322d (Add witness, a simple online
locking validator.) caused a broad propagation of tsd throughout the
internal API, but tsd_fetch() was designed to fail prior to tsd
bootstrapping. Fix this by splitting tsd_t into non-nullable tsd_t and
nullable tsdn_t, and modifying all internal APIs that do not critically
rely on tsd to take nullable pointers. Furthermore, add the
tsd_booted_get() function so that tsdn_fetch() can probe whether tsd
bootstrapping is complete and return NULL if not. All dangerous
conversions of nullable pointers are tsdn_tsd() calls that assert-fail
on invalid conversion.
TlsGetValue has a semantic difference with pthread_getspecific, in that it
can return a non-error NULL value, so it always sets the LastError.
But allocator callers may not be expecting calling e.g. free() to change
the value of the last error, so preserve it.
Refactor bootstrapping to delay tsd initialization, primarily to support
integration with FreeBSD's libc.
Refactor a0*() for internal-only use, and add the
bootstrap_{malloc,calloc,free}() API for use by FreeBSD's libc. This
separation limits use of the a0*() functions to metadata allocation,
which doesn't require malloc/calloc/free API compatibility.
This resolves#170.
Abstract arenas access to use arena_get() (or a0get() where appropriate)
rather than directly reading e.g. arenas[ind]. Prior to the addition of
the arenas.extend mallctl, the worst possible outcome of directly
accessing arenas was a stale read, but arenas.extend may allocate and
assign a new array to arenas.
Add a tsd-based arenas_cache, which amortizes arenas reads. This
introduces some subtle bootstrapping issues, with tsd_boot() now being
split into tsd_boot[01]() to support tsd wrapper allocation
bootstrapping, as well as an arenas_cache_bypass tsd variable which
dynamically terminates allocation of arenas_cache itself.
Promote a0malloc(), a0calloc(), and a0free() to be generally useful for
internal allocation, and use them in several places (more may be
appropriate).
Abstract arena->nthreads management and fix a missing decrement during
thread destruction (recent tsd refactoring left arenas_cleanup()
unused).
Change arena_choose() to propagate OOM, and handle OOM in all callers.
This is important for providing consistent allocation behavior when the
MALLOCX_ARENA() flag is being used. Prior to this fix, it was possible
for an OOM to result in allocation silently allocating from a different
arena than the one specified.
Fix tsd cleanup regressions that were introduced in
5460aa6f66 (Convert all tsd variables to
reside in a single tsd structure.). These regressions were twofold:
1) tsd_tryget() should never (and need never) return NULL. Rename it to
tsd_fetch() and simplify all callers.
2) tsd_*_set() must only be called when tsd is in the nominal state,
because cleanup happens during the nominal-->purgatory transition,
and re-initialization must not happen while in the purgatory state.
Add tsd_nominal() and use it as needed. Note that tsd_*{p,}_get()
can still be used as long as no re-initialization that would require
cleanup occurs. This means that e.g. the thread_allocated counter
can be updated unconditionally.
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.
When using LinuxThreads pthread_setspecific triggers recursive
allocation on all threads. Work around this by creating a global linked
list of in-progress tsd initializations.
This modifies the _tsd_get_wrapper macro-generated function. When it has
to initialize an TSD object it will push the item to the linked list
first. If this causes a recursive allocation then the _get_wrapper
request is satisfied from the list. When pthread_setspecific returns the
item is removed from the list.
This effectively adds a very poor substitute for real TLS used only
during pthread_setspecific allocation recursion.

Fix chunk_alloc_dss() to zero memory when requested.
Fix chunk_dealloc() to avoid chunk_dealloc_mmap() for dss-allocated
memory.
Fix huge_palloc() to always junk fill when requested.
Improve chunk_recycle() to report that memory is zeroed as a side effect
of pages_purge().
Using static memory when malloc_tsd_malloc fails means all threads share
the same wrapper and thus the same wrapped value. This defeats the purpose
of TSD.
Not setting the initialized member leads to randomly calling the cleanup
function in cases it shouldn't be called (and isn't called in other
implementations).
Use FreeBSD-specific functions (_pthread_mutex_init_calloc_cb(),
_malloc_{pre,post}fork()) to avoid bootstrapping issues due to
allocation in libc and libthr.
Add malloc_strtoumax() and use it instead of strtoul(). Disable
validation code in malloc_vsnprintf() and malloc_strtoumax() until
jemalloc is initialized. This is necessary because locale
initialization causes allocation for both vsnprintf() and strtoumax().
Force the lazy-lock feature on in order to avoid pthread_self(),
because it causes allocation.
Use syscall(SYS_write, ...) rather than write(...), because libthr wraps
write() and causes allocation. Without this workaround, it would not be
possible to print error messages in malloc_conf_init() without
substantially reworking bootstrapping.
Fix choose_arena_hard() to look at how many threads are assigned to the
candidate choice, rather than checking whether the arena is
uninitialized. This bug potentially caused more arenas to be
initialized than necessary.
Implement tsd, which is a TLS/TSD abstraction that uses one or both
internally. Modify bootstrapping such that no tsd's are utilized until
allocation is safe.
Remove malloc_[v]tprintf(), and use malloc_snprintf() instead.
Fix %p argument size handling in malloc_vsnprintf().
Fix a long-standing statistics-related bug in the "thread.arena"
mallctl that could cause crashes due to linked list corruption.
