deb8e62a83 Implement guard pages.
Adding guarded extents, which are regular extents surrounded by guard pages
(mprotected).  To reduce syscalls, small guarded extents are cached as a
separate eset in ecache, and decay through the dirty / muzzy / retained pipeline
as usual.

95f0a77fde Detect pthread_getname_np explicitly.
At least one libc (musl) defines pthread_setname_np without defining
pthread_getname_np. Detect the presence of each individually, rather than
inferring both must be defined if set is.

1541ffc765 configure: add --with-lg-slab-maxregs configure option.
Specify the maximum number of regions in a slab, which is
(<lg-page> - <lg-tiny-min>) by default. This increases the limit of slab sizes
specified by "slab_sizes" in malloc_conf. This should never be less than
the default value. The max value of this option is related to LG_BITMAP_MAXBITS
(see more in bitmap.h).

For example, on a 4k page size system, if we:
  1) configure jemalloc with with --with-lg-slab-maxregs=12.
  2) export MALLOC_CONF="slab_sizes:9-16:4"
The slab size of 16 bytes is set to 4 pages. Previously, the default
lg-slab-maxregs is 9 (i.e. 12 - 3). The max slab size of 16 bytes is 2 pages
(i.e. (1<<9) * 16 bytes). By increasing the value from 9 to 12, the max slab
size can be set by MALLOC_CONF is 16 pages (i.e. (1<<12) * 16 bytes).

eaed1e39be Add sized-delete size-checking functionality.
The existing checks are good at finding such issues (on tcache flush), but not
so good at pinpointing them.  Debug mode can find them, but sometimes debug mode
slows down a program so much that hard-to-hit bugs can take a long time to
crash.

This commit adds functionality to keep programs mostly on their fast paths,
while also checking every sized delete argument they get.

08260a6b94 Add experimental API: smallocx_return_t smallocx(size, flags)
---

Motivation:

This new experimental memory-allocaction API returns a pointer to
the allocation as well as the usable size of the allocated memory
region.

The `s` in `smallocx` stands for `sized`-`mallocx`, attempting to
convey that this API returns the size of the allocated memory region.

It should allow C++ P0901r0 [0] and Rust Alloc::alloc_excess to make
use of it.

The main purpose of these APIs is to improve telemetry. It is more accurate
to register `smallocx(size, flags)` than `smallocx(nallocx(size), flags)`,
for example. The latter will always line up perfectly with the existing
size classes, causing a loss of telemetry information about the internal
fragmentation induced by potentially poor size-classes choices.

Instrumenting `nallocx` does not help much since user code can cache its
result and use it repeatedly.

---

Implementation:

The implementation adds a new `usize` option to `static_opts_s` and an `usize`
variable to `dynamic_opts_s`. These are then used to cache the result of
`sz_index2size` and similar functions in the code paths in which they are
unconditionally invoked. In the code-paths in which these functions are not
unconditionally invoked, `smallocx` calls, as opposed to `mallocx`, these
functions explicitly.

f78d4ca3fb Modify configure to determine return value of strerror_r.
On glibc and Android's bionic, strerror_r returns char* when
_GNU_SOURCE is defined.

Add a configure check for this rather than assume glibc is the
only libc that behaves this way.

31ab38be5f Define MADV_FREE on our own when needed.
On x86 Linux, we define our own MADV_FREE if madvise(2) is available, but no
MADV_FREE is detected.  This allows the feature to be built in and enabled with
runtime detection.

1245faae90 Power: disable the CPU_SPINWAIT macro.
Quoting from https://github.com/jemalloc/jemalloc/issues/761 :

[...] reading the Power ISA documentation[1], the assembly in [the CPU_SPINWAIT
macro] isn't correct anyway (as @marxin points out): the setting of the
program-priority register is "sticky", and we never undo the lowering.

We could do something similar, but given that we don't have testing here in the
first place, I'm inclined to simply not try. I'll put something up reverting the
problematic commit tomorrow.

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).

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.

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.

Simplify configuration by removing the --disable-tcache option, but

if tcache is disabled.

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.

The SDK jemalloc is built against might be not be the latest for various
