Support millisecond resolution for decay times. Among other use cases
this makes it possible to specify a short initial dirty-->muzzy decay
phase, followed by a longer muzzy-->clean decay phase.
This resolves#812.
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.
Instead, always define function pointers for interceptable functions,
but mark them const unless testing, so that the compiler can optimize
out the pointer dereferences.
This removes the tsd macros (which are used only for tsd_t in real builds). We
break up the circular dependencies involving tsd.
We also move all tsd access through getters and setters. This allows us to
assert that we only touch data when tsd is in a valid state.
We simplify the usages of the x macro trick, removing all the customizability
(get/set, init, cleanup), moving the lifetime logic to tsd_init and tsd_cleanup.
This lets us make initialization order independent of order within tsd_t.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Some architectures like AArch64 may not have the open syscall because it
was superseded by the openat syscall, so check and use SYS_openat if
SYS_open is not available.
Additionally, Android headers for AArch64 define SYS_open to __NR_open,
even though __NR_open is undefined. Undefine SYS_open in that case so
SYS_openat is used.
Simplify configuration by removing the --disable-tcache option, but
replace the testing for that configuration with
--with-malloc-conf=tcache:false.
Fix the thread.arena and thread.tcache.flush mallctls to work correctly
if tcache is disabled.
This partially resolves#580.
Tracking extents is required by arena_reset. To support this, the extent
linkage was used for tracking 1) large allocations, and 2) full slabs. However
modifying the extent linkage could be an expensive operation as it likely incurs
cache misses. Since we forbid arena_reset on auto arenas, let's bypass the
linkage operations for auto arenas.
This avoids creating clean committed pages as a side effect of aligned
allocation. For configurations that decommit memory, purged pages are
decommitted, and decommitted extents cannot be coalesced with committed
extents. Unless the clean committed pages happen to be selected during
allocation, they cause unnecessary permanent extent fragmentation.
This resolves#766.
All mappings continue to be PAGE-aligned, even if the system page size
is smaller. This change is primarily intended to provide a mechanism
for supporting multiple page sizes with the same binary; smaller page
sizes work better in conjunction with jemalloc's design.
This resolves#467.
Some systems use a native 64 KiB page size, which means that the bitmap
for the smallest size class can be 8192 bits, not just 512 bits as when
the page size is 4 KiB. Linear search in bitmap_{sfu,ffu}() is
unacceptably slow for such large bitmaps.
This reverts commit 7c00f04ff4.
Rather than using a LIFO queue to track available extent_t structures,
use a red-black tree, and always choose the oldest/lowest available
during reuse.
Reverse the order of forced versus lazy purging attempts in
base_unmap(), in order to match the order in extent_dalloc_wrapper(),
which was reversed by 64e458f5cd
(Implement two-phase decay-based purging.).
Two levels of rcache is implemented: a direct mapped cache as L1, combined with
a LRU cache as L2. The L1 cache offers low cost on cache hit, but could suffer
collision under circumstances. This is complemented by the L2 LRU cache, which
is slower on cache access (overhead from linear search + reordering), but solves
collison of L1 rather well.
Previously we had a general detection and support of reentrancy, at the cost of
having branches and inc / dec operations on fast paths. To avoid taxing fast
paths, we move the reentrancy operations onto tsd slow state, and only modify
reentrancy level around external calls (that might trigger reentrancy).
Added tsd_state_nominal_slow, which on fast path malloc() incorporates
tcache_enabled check, and on fast path free() bundles both malloc_slow and
tcache_enabled branches.
With this change, when profiling is enabled, we avoid doing redundant rtree
lookups. Also changed dalloc_atx_t to alloc_atx_t, as it's now used on
allocation path as well (to speed up profiling).
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.
This checks whether or not we're reentrant using thread-local data, and, if we
are, moves certain internal allocations to use arena 0 (which should be properly
initialized after bootstrapping).
The immediate thing this allows is spinning up threads in arena_new, which will
enable spinning up background threads there.
1) Re-organize TSD so that frequently accessed fields are closer to the
beginning and more compact. Assuming 64-bit, the first 2.5 cachelines now
contains everything needed on tcache fast path, expect the tcache struct itself.
2) Re-organize tcache and tbins. Take lg_fill_div out of tbin, and reduce tbin
to 24 bytes (down from 32). Split tbins into tbins_small and tbins_large, and
place tbins_small close to the beginning.
With the tcache change, we plan to leave some blank space when !config_debug
(unused tbins, witnesses) at the end of the tsd. Let's not touch the memory.
The embedded tcache is initialized upon tsd initialization. The avail arrays
for the tbins will be allocated / deallocated accordingly during init / cleanup.
With this change, the pointer to the auto tcache will always be available, as
long as we have access to the TSD. tcache_available() (called in tcache_get())
is provided to check if we should use tcache.
This will facilitate embedding tcache into tsd, which will require proper
initialization cannot be done via the static initializer. Make tsd->rtree_ctx
to be initialized via rtree_ctx_data_init().
Compact extent_t to 128 bytes on 64-bit systems by moving
arena_slab_data_t's nfree into extent_t's e_bits.
Cacheline-align extent_t structures so that they always cross the
minimum number of cacheline boundaries.
Re-order extent_t fields such that all fields except the slab bitmap
(and overlaid heap profiling context pointer) are in the first
cacheline.
This resolves#461.
Remove tree-structured bitmap support, in order to reduce complexity and
ease maintenance. No bitmaps larger than 512 bits have been necessary
since before 4.0.0, and there is no current plan that would increase
maximum bitmap size. Although tree-structured bitmaps were used on
32-bit platforms prior to this change, the overall benefits were
questionable (higher metadata overhead, higher bitmap modification cost,
marginally lower search cost).
For extents which do not delay coalescing, use first fit layout policy
rather than first-best fit layout policy. This packs extents toward
older virtual memory mappings, but at the cost of higher search overhead
in the common case.
This resolves#711.
A fixed max spin count is used -- with benchmark results showing it
solves almost all problems. As the benchmark used was rather intense,
the upper bound could be a little bit high. However it should offer a
good tradeoff between spinning and blocking.
Expand and restructure the rtree API such that all common operations can
be achieved with minimal work, regardless of whether the rtree leaf
fields are independent versus packed into a single atomic pointer.
This allows leaf elements to differ in size from internal node elements.
In principle it would be more correct to use a different type for each
level of the tree, but due to implementation details related to atomic
operations, we use casts anyway, thus counteracting the value of
additional type correctness. Furthermore, such a scheme would require
function code generation (via cpp macros), as well as either unwieldy
type names for leaves or type aliases, e.g.
typedef struct rtree_elm_d2_s rtree_leaf_elm_t;
This alternate strategy would be more correct, and with less code
duplication, but probably not worth the complexity.
Rather than storing usize only for large (and prof-promoted)
allocations, store the size class index for allocations that reside
within the extent, such that the size class index is valid for all
extents that contain extant allocations, and invalid otherwise (mainly
to make debugging simpler).
