a0dd3a4483 Implement per arena base allocators.
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.

a6e86810d8 Refactor purging and splitting/merging.
Split purging into lazy and forced variants.  Use the forced variant for
zeroing dss.

Add support for NULL function pointers as an opt-out mechanism for the
dalloc, commit, decommit, purge_lazy, purge_forced, split, and merge
fields of extent_hooks_t.

Add short-circuiting checks in large_ralloc_no_move_{shrink,expand}() so
that no attempt is made if splitting/merging is not supported.

This resolves #268.

411697adcd Use exponential series to size extents.
If virtual memory is retained, allocate extents such that their sizes
form an exponentially growing series.  This limits the number of
disjoint virtual memory ranges so that extent merging can be effective
even if multiple arenas' extent allocation requests are highly
interleaved.

This resolves #462.

c1baa0a9b7 Add huge page configuration and pages_[no}huge().
Add the --with-lg-hugepage configure option, but automatically configure
LG_HUGEPAGE even if it isn't specified.

Add the pages_[no]huge() functions, which toggle huge page state via
madvise(..., MADV_[NO]HUGEPAGE) calls.

bacb6afc6c Simplify arena_slab_regind().
Rewrite arena_slab_regind() to provide sufficient constant data for
the compiler to perform division strength reduction.  This replaces
more general manual strength reduction that was implemented before
arena_bin_info was compile-time-constant.  It would be possible to
slightly improve on the compiler-generated division code by taking
advantage of range limits that the compiler doesn't know about.

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.

a64123ce13 Refactor madvise(2) configuration.
Add feature tests for the MADV_FREE and MADV_DONTNEED flags to
madvise(2), so that MADV_FREE is detected and used for Linux kernel

support both flags, MADV_FREE is preferred over MADV_DONTNEED.

ea9961acdb Fix psz/pind edge cases.
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.

8dd5ea87ca Fix extent_alloc_cache[_locked]() to support decommitted allocation.
Fix extent_alloc_cache[_locked]() to support decommitted allocation, and
use this ability in arena_stash_dirty(), so that decommitted extents are
not needlessly committed during purging.  In practice this does not
happen on any currently supported systems, because both extent merging
and decommit must be implemented; all supported systems implement one
xor the other.

25f7bbcf28 Fix long spinning in rtree_node_init
rtree_node_init spinlocks the node, allocates, and then sets the node.
This is under heavy contention at the top of the tree if many threads
start to allocate at the same time.

Instead, take a per-rtree sleeping mutex to reduce spinning.  Tested
both pthreads and osx OSSpinLock, and both reduce spinning adequately

The raw clock variant is slow (even relative to plain CLOCK_MONOTONIC),
whereas the coarse clock variant is faster than CLOCK_MONOTONIC, but
still has resolution (~1ms) that is adequate for our purposes.

8309388408 Support static linking of jemalloc with glibc
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.

48d4adfbeb Avoid negation of unsigned numbers.
Rather than relying on two's complement negation for alignment mask
generation, use bitwise not and addition.  This dodges warnings from
MSVC, and should be strength-reduced by compiler optimization anyway.

577d4572b0 Make dss operations lockless.
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.

b4b4a77848 Fix and simplify decay-based purging.
Simplify decay-based purging attempts to only be triggered when the
epoch is advanced, rather than every time purgeable memory increases.
In a correctly functioning system (not previously the case; see below),
this only causes a behavior difference if during subsequent purge
attempts the least recently used (LRU) purgeable memory extent is
initially too large to be purged, but that memory is reused between
attempts and one or more of the next LRU purgeable memory extents are
small enough to be purged.  In practice this is an arbitrary behavior
change that is within the set of acceptable behaviors.

As for the purging fix, assure that arena->decay.ndirty is recorded
*after* the epoch advance and associated purging occurs.  Prior to this
fix, it was possible for purging during epoch advance to cause a
substantially underrepresentative (arena->ndirty - arena->decay.ndirty),
i.e. the number of dirty pages attributed to the current epoch was too
low, and a series of unintended purges could result.  This fix is also
relevant in the context of the simplification described above, but the
bug's impact would be limited to over-purging at epoch advances.

5f11fb7d43 Do not advance decay epoch when time goes backwards.
Instead, move the epoch backward in time.  Additionally, add
nstime_monotonic() and use it in debug builds to assert that time only
goes backward if nstime_update() is using a non-monotonic time source.

e0164bc63c Refine nstime_update().
Add missing #include <time.h>.  The critical time facilities appear to
have been transitively included via unistd.h and sys/time.h, but in
principle this omission was capable of having caused
clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, ...) to have been overlooked in favor of
gettimeofday(), which in turn could cause spurious non-monotonic time
updates.

Refactor nstime_get() out of nstime_update() and add configure tests for
all variants.

Add CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW support (Linux-specific) and
mach_absolute_time() support (OS X-specific).

Do not fall back to clock_gettime(CLOCK_REALTIME, ...).  This was a
fragile Linux-specific workaround, which we're unlikely to use at all
now that clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW, ...) is supported, and if we
have no choice besides non-monotonic clocks, gettimeofday() is only
incrementally worse.

1167e9eff3 Check for __builtin_unreachable at configure time
Add a configure check for __builtin_unreachable instead of basing its
availability on the __GNUC__ version. On OS X using gcc (a real gcc, not the
bundled version that's just a gcc front-end) leads to a linker assertion:

    https://github.com/jemalloc/jemalloc/issues/266

It turns out that this is caused by a gcc bug resulting from the use of
__builtin_unreachable():

    https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57438

To work around this bug, check that __builtin_unreachable() actually works at
configure time, and if it doesn't use abort() instead. The check is based on
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57438#c21.

With this `make check` passes with a homebrew installed gcc-5 and gcc-6.
