When witness is enabled, lock rank order needs to be preserved during
prefork, not only for each arena, but also across arenas. This change
breaks arena_prefork into further stages to ensure valid rank order
across arenas. Also changed test/unit/fork to use a manual arena to
catch this case.
This fixes tcache_flush for manual tcaches, which wasn't able to find
the correct arena it associated with. Also changed the decay test to
cover this case (by using manually created arenas).
Fix compute_size_with_overflow() to use a high_bits mask that has the
high bits set, rather than the low bits. This regression was introduced
by 5154ff32ee (Unify the allocation
paths).
Synchronize tcaches with tcaches_mtx rather than ctl_mtx. Add missing
synchronization for tcache flushing. This bug was introduced by
1cb181ed63 (Implement explicit tcache
support.), which was first released in 4.0.0.
In the refactoring that unified the allocation paths, usize was substituted for
size. This worked fine under the default test configuration, but triggered
asserts when we started beefing up our CI testing.
This change fixes the issue, and clarifies the comment describing the argument
selection that it got wrong.
Avoid the name secure_getenv to avoid redeclaring secure_getenv when
secure_getenv is present but its use is manually disabled via
ac_cv_func_secure_getenv=no.
This unifies the allocation paths for malloc, posix_memalign, aligned_alloc,
calloc, memalign, valloc, and mallocx, so that they all share common code where
they can.
There's more work that could be done here, but I think this is the smallest
discrete change in this direction.
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.
Some versions of Android provide a pthreads library without providing
pthread_atfork(), so in practice a separate feature test is necessary
for the latter.
Add an "over-size" extent heap in which to store extents which exceed
the maximum size class (plus cache-oblivious padding, if enabled).
Remove psz2ind_clamp() and use psz2ind() instead so that trying to
allocate the maximum size class can in principle succeed. In practice,
this allows assertions to hold so that OOM errors can be successfully
generated.
This works around malloc_conf not being properly initialized by at least
the cygwin toolchain. Prior build system changes to use
-Wl,--[no-]whole-archive may be necessary for malloc_conf resolution to
work properly as a non-weak symbol (not tested).
This is generally correct (no need for weak symbols since no jemalloc
library is involved in the link phase), and avoids linking problems
(apparently unininitialized non-NULL malloc_conf) when using cygwin with
gcc.
glibc defines its malloc implementation with several weak and strong
symbols:
strong_alias (__libc_calloc, __calloc) weak_alias (__libc_calloc, calloc)
strong_alias (__libc_free, __cfree) weak_alias (__libc_free, cfree)
strong_alias (__libc_free, __free) strong_alias (__libc_free, free)
strong_alias (__libc_malloc, __malloc) strong_alias (__libc_malloc, malloc)
The issue is not with the weak symbols, but that other parts of glibc
depend on __libc_malloc explicitly. Defining them in terms of jemalloc
API's allows the linker to drop glibc's malloc.o completely from the link,
and static linking no longer results in symbol collisions.
Another wrinkle: jemalloc during initialization calls sysconf to
get the number of CPU's. GLIBC allocates for the first time before
setting up isspace (and other related) tables, which are used by
sysconf. Instead, use the pthread API to get the number of
CPUs with GLIBC, which seems to work.
This resolves#442.
Rather than protecting dss operations with a mutex, use atomic
operations. This has negligible impact on synchronization overhead
during typical dss allocation, but is a substantial improvement for
extent_in_dss() and the newly added extent_dss_mergeable(), which can be
called multiple times during extent deallocations.
This change also has the advantage of avoiding tsd in deallocation paths
associated with purging, which resolves potential deadlocks during
thread exit due to attempted tsd resurrection.
This resolves#425.
Add spin_t and spin_{init,adaptive}(), which provide a simple
abstraction for adaptive spinning.
Adaptively spin during busy waits in bootstrapping and rtree node
initialization.
rallocx() for an alignment-constrained request may end up with a
smaller-than-worst-case size if in-place reallocation succeeds due to
serendipitous alignment. In such cases, sampling may not happen.
Look up chunk metadata via the radix tree, rather than using
CHUNK_ADDR2BASE().
Propagate pointer's containing extent.
Minimize extent lookups by doing a single lookup (e.g. in free()) and
propagating the pointer's extent into nearly all the functions that may
need it.
Use pszind_t size classes rather than szind_t size classes, and always
reserve space for NPSIZES elements. This removes unused heaps that are
not multiples of the page size, and adds (currently) unused heaps for
all huge size classes, with the immediate benefit that the size of
arena_t allocations is constant (no longer dependent on chunk size).
These compute size classes and indices similarly to size2index(),
index2size() and s2u(), respectively, but using the subset of size
classes that are multiples of the page size. Note that pszind_t and
szind_t are not interchangeable.
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.
This is a broader application of optimizations to malloc() and free() in
f4a0f32d34 (Fast-path improvement:
reduce # of branches and unnecessary operations.).
This resolves#321.
If the OS overcommits:
- Commit all mappings in pages_map() regardless of whether the caller
requested committed memory.
- Linux-specific: Specify MAP_NORESERVE to avoid
unfortunate interactions with heuristic overcommit mode during
fork(2).
This resolves#193.
Prior to 767d85061a (Refactor arenas array
(fixes deadlock).), it was possible under some circumstances for
arena_get() to trigger recreation of the arenas cache during tsd
cleanup, and the arenas cache would then be leaked. In principle a
similar issue could still occur as a side effect of decay-based purging,
which calls arena_tdata_get(). Fix arenas_tdata_cleanup() by setting
tsd->arenas_tdata_bypass to true, so that arena_tdata_get() will
gracefully fail (an expected behavior) rather than recreating
tsd->arena_tdata.
Reported by Christopher Ferris <cferris@google.com>.
Add HUGE_MAXCLASS overflow checks that are specific to heap profiling
code paths. This fixes test failures that were introduced by
0c516a00c4 (Make *allocx() size class
overflow behavior defined.).
Refactor the arenas array, which contains pointers to all extant arenas,
such that it starts out as a sparse array of maximum size, and use
double-checked atomics-based reads as the basis for fast and simple
arena_get(). Additionally, reduce arenas_lock's role such that it only
protects against arena initalization races. These changes remove the
possibility for arena lookups to trigger locking, which resolves at
least one known (fork-related) deadlock.
This resolves#315.
Use a single uint64_t in nstime_t to store nanoseconds rather than using
struct timespec. This reduces fragility around conversions between long
and uint64_t, especially missing casts that only cause problems on
32-bit platforms.
This is an alternative to the existing ratio-based unused dirty page
purging, and is intended to eventually become the sole purging
mechanism.
Add mallctls:
- opt.purge
- opt.decay_time
- arena.<i>.decay
- arena.<i>.decay_time
- arenas.decay_time
- stats.arenas.<i>.decay_time
This resolves#325.
When using LinuxThreads, malloc bootstrapping deadlocks, since
malloc_tsd_boot0() ends up calling pthread_setspecific(), which causes
recursive allocation. Fix it by moving the malloc_tsd_boot0() call to
malloc_init_hard_recursible().
The deadlock was introduced by 8bb3198f72
(Refactor/fix arenas manipulation.), when tsd_boot() was split and the
top half, tsd_boot0(), got an extra tsd_wrapper_set() call.
- Combine multiple runtime branches into a single malloc_slow check.
- Avoid calling arena_choose / size2index / index2size on fast path.
- A few micro optimizations.
Simplify imallocx_prof_sample() to always operate on usize rather than
sometimes using size. This avoids redundant usize computations and
more closely fits the style adopted by i[rx]allocx_prof_sample() to fix
sampling bugs.
Fix ixallocx_prof_sample() to never modify nor create sampled small
allocations. xallocx() is in general incapable of moving small
allocations, so this fix removes buggy code without loss of generality.
Add arena_prof_tctx_reset() and use it instead of arena_prof_tctx_set()
when resetting the tctx pointer during reallocation, which happens
whenever an originally sampled reallocated object is not sampled during
reallocation.
This regression was introduced by
594c759f37 (Optimize
arena_prof_tctx_set().)
Make one call to prof_active_get_unlocked() per allocation event, and
use the result throughout the relevant functions that handle an
allocation event. Also add a missing check in prof_realloc(). These
fixes protect allocation events against concurrent prof_active changes.
Fix arenas_cache_cleanup() and arena_get_hard() to handle
allocation/deallocation within the application's thread-specific data
cleanup functions even after arenas_cache is torn down.
This is a more general fix that complements
45e9f66c28 (Fix arenas_cache_cleanup().).
Fix arenas_cache_cleanup() to handle allocation/deallocation within the
application's thread-specific data cleanup functions even after
arenas_cache is torn down.
- Decorate public function with __declspec(allocator) and __declspec(restrict), just like MSVC 1900
- Support JEMALLOC_HAS_RESTRICT by defining the restrict keyword
- Move __declspec(nothrow) between 'void' and '*' so it compiles once more
As per gcc documentation:
The alloc_size attribute is used to tell the compiler that the function
return value points to memory (...)
This resolves#245.
Add various function attributes to the exported functions to give the
compiler more information to work with during optimization, and also
specify throw() when compiling with C++ on Linux, in order to adequately
match what __THROW does in glibc.
This resolves#237.
- Set opt_lg_chunk based on run-time OS setting
- Verify LG_PAGE is compatible with run-time OS setting
- When targeting Windows Vista or newer, use SRWLOCK instead of CRITICAL_SECTION
- When targeting Windows Vista or newer, statically initialize init_lock
Fix size class overflow handling for malloc(), posix_memalign(),
memalign(), calloc(), and realloc() when profiling is enabled.
Remove an assertion that erroneously caused arena_sdalloc() to fail when
profiling was enabled.
This resolves#232.
Extract szad size quantization into {extent,run}_quantize(), and .
quantize szad run sizes to the union of valid small region run sizes and
large run sizes.
Refactor iteration in arena_run_first_fit() to use
run_quantize{,_first,_next(), and add support for padded large runs.
For large allocations that have no specified alignment constraints,
compute a pseudo-random offset from the beginning of the first backing
page that is a multiple of the cache line size. Under typical
configurations with 4-KiB pages and 64-byte cache lines this results in
a uniform distribution among 64 page boundary offsets.
Add the --disable-cache-oblivious option, primarily intended for
performance testing.
This resolves#13.
However, unlike before it was removed do not force --enable-ivsalloc
when Darwin zone allocator integration is enabled, since the zone
allocator code uses ivsalloc() regardless of whether
malloc_usable_size() and sallocx() do.
This resolves#211.
