a02fc08ec9 Make interval-triggered profile dumping optional.
Make it possible to disable interval-triggered profile dumping, even if
profiling is enabled.  This is useful if the user only wants a single
dump at exit, or if the application manually triggers profile dumps.

0b270a991d Reduce statistical heap sampling memory overhead.
If the mean heap sampling interval is larger than one page, simulate
sampled small objects with large objects.  This allows profiling context
pointers to be omitted for small objects.  As a result, the memory
overhead for sampling decreases as the sampling interval is increased.

Fix a compilation error in the profiling code.

dafde14e08 Remove medium size classes.
Remove medium size classes, because concurrent dirty page purging is
no longer capable of purging inactive dirty pages inside active runs
(due to recent arena/bin locking changes).

Enhance tcache to support caching large objects, so that the same range
of size classes is still cached, despite the removal of medium size
class support.

3fa9a2fad8 Simplify tcache object caching.
Use chains of cached objects, rather than using arrays of pointers.

Since tcache_bin_t is no longer dynamically sized, convert tcache_t's
tbin to an array of structures, rather than an array of pointers.  This
implicitly removes tcache_bin_{create,destroy}(), which further
simplifies the fast path for malloc/free.

Use cacheline alignment for tcache_t allocations.

Remove runtime configuration option for number of tcache bin slots, and
replace it with a boolean option for enabling/disabling tcache.

Limit the number of tcache objects to the lesser of TCACHE_NSLOTS_MAX
and 2X the number of regions per run for the size class.

For GC-triggered flush, discard 3/4 of the objects below the low water
mark, rather than 1/2.

698805c525 Simplify malloc_message().
Rather than passing four strings to malloc_message(), malloc_write4(),
and all the functions that use them, only pass one string.

fe5faa2cc5 Remove tracing (--enable-trace).
Remove all functionality related to tracing.  This functionality was
useful for understanding memory fragmentation during early algorithmic
design of jemalloc, but it had little utility for non-trivial
applications, due to the sheer volume of data written to disk.

Interval-based profile dump triggering is not yet implemented.

* Add hash (Murmur hash function).
* Add ckh (cuckoo hash tables).

a0bf242230 Fix bootstrapping crash.
If a custom small_size2bin table was required due to non-default size
class settings, memory allocation prior to initializing chunk parameters
would cause a crash due to division by 0.  The fix re-orders the various
*_boot() function calls.

Bootstrapping is simpler now than it was before the base allocator
started just using the chunk allocator directly.  This allows
arena_boot[01]() to be combined.

Add error detection for pthread_atfork() and atexit() function calls.

952b7d192b Split run deallocation out of arena_dalloc_bin(), into arena_dalloc_bin_run().
Enhance bin run deallocation to avoid marking all pages as dirty, since the
dirty bits are already correct for all but the first page, due to the use of
arena_run_rc_{incr,decr}().  This tends to dramatically reduce the number of
pages that are marked dirty.

Modify arena_bin_run_size_calc() to assure that bin run headers never exceed
one page.  In practice, this can't happen unless hard-coded constants (related
to RUN_MAX_OVRHD) are modified, but the dirty page tracking code assumes bin
run headers never extend past the first page, so it seems worth making this a
universally valid assumption.

9ad48230ed Simplify JEMALLOC_ATTR_* macros to become JEMALLOC_ATTR().
Use JEMALLOC_ATTR(tls_model("initial-exec)) instead of -ftls-model=initial-exec
so that libjemalloc_pic.a can be directly linked into another library without
needing linker options changes.

Add attributes to malloc, calloc, and posix_memalign, for compatibility with
glibc's declarations.

Add function prototypes for the standard malloc(3) API.

d3068c3f46 _pt_thread_death_internal(), which is part of Linux's nptl pthreads
implementation, calls free() after calling TSD destructors.  This was causing a
crash during thread exit, since the magazine rack was no longer valid for the
thread.  Fix this by using a special mag_rack value to indicate that
deallocation should bypass the magazine machinery.
