Fold the tsd_state check onto the event threshold check. The fast threshold is
set to 0 when tsd switch to non-nominal.
The fast_threshold can be reset by remote threads, to refect the non nominal tsd
state change.
Develop new data structure and code logic for holding profiling
related information stored in the extent that may be needed after the
extent is released, which in particular is the case for the
reallocation code path (e.g. in `rallocx()` and `xallocx()`). The
data structure is a generalization of `prof_tctx_t`: we previously
only copy out the `prof_tctx` before the extent is released, but we
may be in need of additional fields. Currently the only additional
field is the allocation time field, but there may be more fields in
the future.
The restructuring also resolved a bug: `prof_realloc()` mistakenly
passed the new `ptr` to `prof_free_sampled_object()`, but passing in
the `old_ptr` would crash because it's already been released. Now
the essential profiling information is collectively copied out early
and safely passed to `prof_free_sampled_object()` after the extent is
released.
Specifically, the extent_arena_[g|s]et functions and the address randomization.
These are the only things that tie the extent struct itself to the arena code.
The -1 value of low_water indicates if the cache has been depleted and
refilled. Track the status explicitly in the tcache struct.
This allows the fast path to check if (cur_ptr > low_water), instead of >=,
which avoids reaching slow path when the last item is allocated.
With the cache bin metadata switched to pointers, ncached_max is usually
accessed and timed by sizeof(ptr). Store the results in tcache_bin_info for
direct access, and add a helper function for the ncached_max value.
Implement the pointer-based metadata for tcache bins --
- 3 pointers are maintained to represent each bin;
- 2 of the pointers are compressed on 64-bit;
- is_full / is_empty done through pointer comparison;
Comparing to the previous counter based design --
- fast-path speed up ~15% in benchmarks
- direct pointer comparison and de-reference
- no need to access tcache_bin_info in common case
JSON format is largely meant for machine-machine communication, so
adding the option to the emitter. According to local testing, the
savings in terms of bytes outputted is around 50% for stats printing
and around 25% for prof log printing.
The VirtualAlloc and VirtualFree APIs are different because MEM_DECOMMIT cannot
be used across multiple VirtualAlloc regions. To properly support decommit,
only allow merge / split within the same region -- this is done by tracking the
"is_head" state of extents and not merging cross-region.
Add a new state is_head (only relevant for retain && !maps_coalesce), which is
true for the first extent in each VirtualAlloc region. Determine if two extents
can be merged based on the head state, and use serial numbers for sanity checks.
If the confirm_conf option is set, when the program starts, each of
the four malloc_conf strings will be printed, and each option will
be printed when being set.
When config_stats is enabled track the size of bin->slabs_nonfull in
the new nonfull_slabs counter in bin_stats_t. This metric should be
useful for establishing an upper ceiling on the savings possible by
meshing.
The analytics tool is put under experimental.utilization namespace in
mallctl. Input is one pointer or an array of pointers and the output
is a list of memory utilization statistics.
- Make API more clear for using as standalone json emitter
- Support cases that weren't possible before, e.g.
- emitting primitive values in an array
- emitting nested arrays
The global data is mostly only used at initialization, or for easy access to
values we could compute statically. Instead of consuming that space (and
risking TLB misses), we can just pass around a pointer to stack data during
bootstrapping.
The largest small class, smallest large class, and largest large class may all
be needed down fast paths; to avoid the risk of touching another cache line, we
can make them available as constants.
This class removes almost all the dependencies on size_classes.h, accessing the
data there only via the new module sc.h, which does not depend on any
configuration options.
In a subsequent commit, we'll remove the configure-time size class computations,
doing them at boot time, instead.
Before this commit jemalloc produced many warnings when compiled with -Wextra
with both Clang and GCC. This commit fixes the issues raised by these warnings
or suppresses them if they were spurious at least for the Clang and GCC
versions covered by CI.
This commit:
* adds `JEMALLOC_DIAGNOSTIC` macros: `JEMALLOC_DIAGNOSTIC_{PUSH,POP}` are
used to modify the stack of enabled diagnostics. The
`JEMALLOC_DIAGNOSTIC_IGNORE_...` macros are used to ignore a concrete
diagnostic.
* adds `JEMALLOC_FALLTHROUGH` macro to explicitly state that falling
through `case` labels in a `switch` statement is intended
* Removes all UNUSED annotations on function parameters. The warning
-Wunused-parameter is now disabled globally in
`jemalloc_internal_macros.h` for all translation units that include
that header. It is never re-enabled since that header cannot be
included by users.
* locally suppresses some -Wextra diagnostics:
* `-Wmissing-field-initializer` is buggy in older Clang and GCC versions,
where it does not understanding that, in C, `= {0}` is a common C idiom
to initialize a struct to zero
* `-Wtype-bounds` is suppressed in a particular situation where a generic
macro, used in multiple different places, compares an unsigned integer for
smaller than zero, which is always true.
* `-Walloc-larger-than-size=` diagnostics warn when an allocation function is
called with a size that is too large (out-of-range). These are suppressed in
the parts of the tests where `jemalloc` explicitly does this to test that the
allocation functions fail properly.
* adds a new CI build bot that runs the log unit test on CI.
Closes#1196 .
