GCC 4.9.3 cross-compiled for sparc64 defines __sparc_v9__, not
__sparc64__ nor __sparcv9. This prevents LG_QUANTUM from being defined
properly. Adding this new value to the check solves the issue.
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.
Some bug (either in the red-black tree code, or in the pgi compiler) seems to
cause red-black trees to become unbalanced. This issue seems to go away if we
don't use compact red-black trees. Since red-black trees don't seem to be used
much anymore, I opted for what seems to be an easy fix here instead of digging
in and trying to find the root cause of the bug.
Some context in case it's helpful:
I experienced a ton of segfaults while using pgi as Chapel's target compiler
with jemalloc 4.0.4. The little bit of debugging I did pointed me somewhere
deep in red-black tree manipulation, but I didn't get a chance to investigate
further. It looks like 4.2.0 replaced most uses of red-black trees with
pairing-heaps, which seems to avoid whatever bug I was hitting.
However, `make check_unit` was still failing on the rb test, so I figured the
core issue was just being masked. Here's the `make check_unit` failure:
```sh
=== test/unit/rb ===
test_rb_empty: pass

```
While starting to debug I saw the RB_COMPACT option and decided to check if
turning that off resolved the bug. It seems to have fixed it (`make check_unit`
passes and the segfaults under Chapel are gone) so it seems like on okay
work-around. I'd imagine this has performance implications for red-black trees
under pgi, but if they're not going to be used much anymore it's probably not a
big deal.
Revert 245ae6036c (Support --with-lg-page
values larger than actual page size.), because it could cause VM map
fragmentation if the kernel grows mmap()ed memory downward.
This resolves#391.
rtree-based extent lookups remain more expensive than chunk-based run
lookups, but with this optimization the fast path slowdown is ~3 CPU
cycles per metadata lookup (on Intel Core i7-4980HQ), versus ~11 cycles
prior. The path caching speedup tends to degrade gracefully unless
allocated memory is spread far apart (as is the case when using a
mixture of sbrk() and mmap()).
In the case where prof_alloc_prep() is called with an over-estimate of
allocation size, and sampling doesn't end up being triggered, the tctx
must be discarded.
When an allocation is large enough to trigger multiple dumps, use
modular math rather than subtraction to reset the interval counter.
Prior to this change, it was possible for a single allocation to cause
many subsequent allocations to all trigger profile dumps.
When updating usable size for a sampled object, try to cancel out
the difference between LARGE_MINCLASS and usable size from the interval
counter.
