b693c7868e Implementing opt.background_thread.
Added opt.background_thread to enable background threads, which handles purging
currently.  When enabled, decay ticks will not trigger purging (which will be
left to the background threads).  We limit the max number of threads to NCPUs.
When percpu arena is enabled, set CPU affinity for the background threads as
well.

The sleep interval of background threads is dynamic and determined by computing
number of pages to purge in the future (based on backlog).

909f0482e4 Automatically generate private symbol name mangling macros.
Rather than using a manually maintained list of internal symbols to
drive name mangling, add a compilation phase to automatically extract
the list of internal symbols.

This resolves #677.

c86c8f4ffb Add extent_destroy_t and use it during arena destruction.
Add the extent_destroy_t extent destruction hook to extent_hooks_t, and
use it during arena destruction.  This hook explicitly communicates to
the callee that the extent must be destroyed or tracked for later reuse,
lest it be permanently leaked.  Prior to this change, retained extents
could unintentionally be leaked if extent retention was enabled.

This resolves #560.

c67c3e4a63 Replace --disable-munmap with opt.munmap.
Control use of munmap(2) via a run-time option rather than a
compile-time option (with the same per platform default).  The old
behavior of --disable-munmap can be achieved with
--with-malloc-conf=munmap:false.

This partially resolves #580.

b54530020f Remove --with-lg-size-class-group.
Four size classes per size doubling has proven to be a universally good

425253e2cd Enable -Wundef, when supported.
This can catch bugs in which one header defines a numeric constant, and another
uses it without including the defining header. Undefined preprocessor symbols
expand to '0', so that this will compile fine, silently doing the math wrong.

3823effe12 Remove --enable-ivsalloc.
Continue to use ivsalloc() when --enable-debug is specified (and add
assertions to guard against 0 size), but stop providing a documented
explicit semantics-changing band-aid to dodge undefined behavior in
sallocx() and malloc_usable_size().  ivsalloc() remains compiled in,
unlike when #211 restored --enable-ivsalloc, and if
JEMALLOC_FORCE_IVSALLOC is defined during compilation, sallocx() and
malloc_usable_size() will still use ivsalloc().

This partially resolves #580.

743d940dc3 Header refactoring: Split up jemalloc_internal.h
This is a biggy.  jemalloc_internal.h has been doing multiple jobs for a while
now:
- The source of system-wide definitions.
- The catch-all include file.
- The module header file for jemalloc.c

This commit splits up this functionality.  The system-wide definitions
responsibility has moved to jemalloc_preamble.h.  The catch-all include file is
now jemalloc_internal_includes.h.  The module headers for jemalloc.c are now in
jemalloc_internal_[externs|inlines|types].h, just as they are for the other
modules.

701daa5298 Port CPU_SPINWAIT to __powerpc64__
Hyper-threaded CPUs may need a special instruction inside spin loops in
order to yield to another virtual CPU. The 'pause' instruction that is
available for x86 is not supported on Power.
Apparently the extended mnemonics like yield, mdoio, and mdoom are not
actually implemented on POWER8, although mentioned in the ISA 2.07
document. The recommended magic bits are an 'or 31,31,31'.

ec532e2c5c Implement per-CPU arena.
The new feature, opt.percpu_arena, determines thread-arena association
dynamically based CPU id. Three modes are supported: "percpu", "phycpu"
and disabled.

"percpu" uses the current core id (with help from sched_getcpu())
directly as the arena index, while "phycpu" will assign threads on the
same physical CPU to the same arena. In other words, "percpu" means # of
arenas == # of CPUs, while "phycpu" has # of arenas == 1/2 * (# of
CPUs). Note that no runtime check on whether hyper threading is enabled
is added yet.

When enabled, threads will be migrated between arenas when a CPU change
is detected. In the current design, to reduce overhead from reading CPU
id, each arena tracks the thread accessed most recently. When a new
thread comes in, we will read CPU id and update arena if necessary.

d4ac7582f3 Introduce a backport of C11 atomics
This introduces a backport of C11 atomics.  It has four implementations; ranked
in order of preference, they are:
- GCC/Clang __atomic builtins
- GCC/Clang __sync builtins
- MSVC _Interlocked builtins
- C11 atomics, from <stdatomic.h>

The primary advantages are:
- Close adherence to the standard API gives us a defined memory model.
- Type safety: atomic objects are now separate types from non-atomic ones, so
  that it's impossible to mix up atomic and non-atomic updates (which is
  undefined behavior that compilers are starting to take advantage of).
- Efficiency: we can specify ordering for operations, avoiding fences and
  atomic operations on strongly ordered architectures (example:
  `atomic_write_u32(ptr, val);` involves a CAS loop, whereas
  `atomic_store(ptr, val, ATOMIC_RELEASE);` is a plain store.

This diff leaves in the current atomics API (implementing them in terms of the
backport).  This lets us transition uses over piecemeal.

Testing:
This is by nature hard to test. I've manually tested the first three options on
Linux on gcc by futzing with the #defines manually, on freebsd with gcc and
clang, on MSVC, and on OS X with clang.  All of these were x86 machines though,
and we don't have any test infrastructure set up for non-x86 platforms.

0f7376eb62 Don't rely on OSX SDK malloc/malloc.h for malloc_zone struct definitions
The SDK jemalloc is built against might be not be the latest for various
reasons, but the resulting binary ought to work on newer versions of
OSX.

In order to ensure this, we need the fullest definitions possible, so
copy what we need from the latest version of malloc/malloc.h available
on opensource.apple.com.

194d6f9de8 Restructure *CFLAGS/*CXXFLAGS configuration.
Convert CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS to be concatenations:

  CFLAGS := CONFIGURE_CFLAGS SPECIFIED_CFLAGS EXTRA_CFLAGS
  CXXFLAGS := CONFIGURE_CXXFLAGS SPECIFIED_CXXFLAGS EXTRA_CXXFLAGS

This ordering makes it possible to override the flags set by the
configure script both during and after configuration, with
CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS and EXTRA_CFLAGS/EXTRA_CXXFLAGS, respectively.

This resolves #504.

2319152d9f jemalloc cpp new/delete bindings
Adds cpp bindings for jemalloc, along with necessary autoconf settings.
This is mostly to add sized deallocation support, which can't be added
from C directly.  Sized deallocation is ~10% microbench improvement.

* Import ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx.m4 from the autoconf repo, seems like the
  easiest way to get c++14 detection.
* Adds various other changes, like CXXFLAGS, to configure.ac.
* Adds new rules to Makefile.in for src/jemalloc-cpp.cpp, and a basic
  unittest.
* Both new and delete are overridden, to ensure jemalloc is used for
  both.
* TODO future enhancement of avoiding extra PLT thunks for new and
  delete - sdallocx and malloc are publicly exported jemalloc symbols,
  using an alias would link them directly.  Unfortunately, was having
  trouble getting it to play nice with jemalloc's namespace support.

Testing:
Tested gcc 4.8, gcc 5, gcc 5.2, clang 4.0.  Only gcc >= 5 has sized
deallocation support, verified that the rest build correctly.

Tested mac osx and Centos.

Tested --with-jemalloc-prefix and --without-export.

This resolves #202.

eb29d7ec0e Implement a more reliable detection scheme for os_unfair_lock.
The core issue here is the weak linking of the symbol, and in certain
environments--for instance, using the latest Xcode (8.1) with the latest
SDK (10.12)--os_unfair_lock may resolve even though you're compiling on
a host that doesn't support it (10.11).

We can use the availability macros to circumvent this problem, and
detect that we're not compiling for a target that is going to support
them and error out at compile time.  The other alternative is to do a
runtime check, but that presents issues for cross-compiling.
