This avoids the potential surprise of deallocating an object with one
tcache specified, and having the object cached in a different tcache
once it drains from the quarantine.
Now that small allocation runs have fewer regions due to run metadata
residing in chunk headers, an explicit minimum tcache count is needed to
make sure that tcache adequately amortizes synchronization overhead.
Take into account large_pad when computing whether to pass the
deallocation request to tcache_dalloc_large(), so that the largest
cacheable size makes it back to tcache. This regression was introduced
by 8a03cf039c (Implement cache index
randomization for large allocations.).
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.
This rename avoids installation collisions with the upstream gperftools.
Additionally, jemalloc's per thread heap profile functionality
introduced an incompatible file format, so it's now worthwhile to
clearly distinguish jemalloc's version of this script from the upstream
version.
This resolves#229.
under some compiler (gcc 4.8.4 in particular), the auto-detection of TLS
don't work properly.
force tls to be disabled.

Fix the shrinking case of huge_ralloc_no_move_similar() to purge the
correct number of pages, at the correct offset. This regression was
introduced by 8d6a3e8321 (Implement
dynamic per arena control over dirty page purging.).
Fix huge_ralloc_no_move_shrink() to purge the correct number of pages.
This bug was introduced by 9673983443
(Purge/zero sub-chunk huge allocations as necessary.).
Fix arena_get() calls that specify refresh_if_missing=false. In
ctl_refresh() and ctl.c's arena_purge(), these calls attempted to only
refresh once, but did so in an unreliable way.
arena_i_lg_dirty_mult_ctl() was simply wrong to pass
refresh_if_missing=false.
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.
Add mallctls:
- arenas.lg_dirty_mult is initialized via opt.lg_dirty_mult, and can be
modified to change the initial lg_dirty_mult setting for newly created
arenas.
- arena.<i>.lg_dirty_mult controls an individual arena's dirty page
purging threshold, and synchronously triggers any purging that may be
necessary to maintain the constraint.
- arena.<i>.chunk.purge allows the per arena dirty page purging function
to be replaced.
This resolves#93.
Remove the prof_tctx_state_destroying transitory state and instead add
the tctx_uid field, so that the tuple <thr_uid, tctx_uid> uniquely
identifies a tctx. This assures that tctx's are well ordered even when
more than two with the same thr_uid coexist. A previous attempted fix
based on prof_tctx_state_destroying was only sufficient for protecting
against two coexisting tctx's, but it also introduced a new dumping
race.
These regressions were introduced by
602c8e0971 (Implement per thread heap
profiling.) and 764b00023f (Fix a heap
profiling regression.).
Add the prof_tctx_state_destroying transitionary state to fix a race
between a thread destroying a tctx and another thread creating a new
equivalent tctx.
This regression was introduced by
602c8e0971 (Implement per thread heap
profiling.).
Linux sets _POSIX_MONOTONIC_CLOCK to 0 meaning it *might* be available,
so a sysconf check is necessary at runtime with a fallback to the
mandatory CLOCK_REALTIME clock.
a14bce85 made buferror not take an error code, and make the Windows
code path for buferror use GetLastError, while the alternative code
paths used errno. Then 2a83ed02 made buferror take an error code
again, and while it changed the non-Windows code paths to use that
error code, the Windows code path was not changed accordingly.
Fix prof_tctx_comp() to incorporate tctx state into the comparison.
During a dump it is possible for both a purgatory tctx and an otherwise
equivalent nominal tctx to reside in the tree at the same time.
This regression was introduced by
602c8e0971 (Implement per thread heap
profiling.).
This tends to more effectively pack active memory toward low addresses.
However, additional tree searches are required in many cases, so whether
this change stands the test of time will depend on real-world
benchmarks.
Treat sizes that round down to the same size class as size-equivalent
in trees that are used to search for first best fit, so that there are
only as many "firsts" as there are size classes. This comes closer to
the ideal of first fit.
Recent changes have improved huge allocation scalability, which removes
upward pressure to set the chunk size so large that huge allocations are
rare. Smaller chunks are more likely to completely drain, so set the
default to the smallest size that doesn't leave excessive unusable
trailing space in chunk headers.
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.
Rename "dirty chunks" to "cached chunks", in order to avoid overloading
the term "dirty".
Fix the regression caused by 339c2b23b2
(Fix chunk_unmap() to propagate dirty state.), and actually address what
that change attempted, which is to only purge chunks once, and propagate
whether zeroed pages resulted into chunk_record().
Fix chunk_unmap() to propagate whether a chunk is dirty, and modify
dirty chunk purging to record this information so it can be passed to
chunk_unmap(). Since the broken version of chunk_unmap() claimed that
all chunks were clean, this resulted in potential memory corruption for
purging implementations that do not zero (e.g. MADV_FREE).
This regression was introduced by
ee41ad409a (Integrate whole chunks into
unused dirty page purging machinery.).
