s/PAGE_SHIFT/LG_PAGE/g and s/PAGE_SIZE/PAGE/g.
Remove remnants of the dynamic-page-shift code.
Rename the "arenas.pagesize" mallctl to "arenas.page".
Remove the "arenas.chunksize" mallctl, which is redundant with
"opt.lg_chunk".
Remove ephemeral mutexes from the prof machinery, and remove
malloc_mutex_destroy(). This simplifies mutex management on systems
that call malloc()/free() inside pthread_mutex_{create,destroy}().
Add atomic_*_u() for operation on unsigned values.
Fix prof_printf() to call malloc_vsnprintf() rather than
malloc_snprintf().
Implement tsd, which is a TLS/TSD abstraction that uses one or both
internally. Modify bootstrapping such that no tsd's are utilized until
allocation is safe.
Remove malloc_[v]tprintf(), and use malloc_snprintf() instead.
Fix %p argument size handling in malloc_vsnprintf().
Fix a long-standing statistics-related bug in the "thread.arena"
mallctl that could cause crashes due to linked list corruption.
Implement malloc_vsnprintf() (a subset of vsnprintf(3)) as well as
several other printing functions based on it, so that formatted printing
can be relied upon without concern for inducing a dependency on floating
point runtime support. Replace malloc_write() calls with
malloc_*printf() where doing so simplifies the code.
Add name mangling for library-private symbols in the data and BSS
sections. Adjust CONF_HANDLE_*() macros in malloc_conf_init() to expose
all opt_* variable use to cpp so that proper mangling occurs.
Remove opt.lg_prof_bt_max, and hard code it to 7. The original
intention of this option was to enable faster backtracing by limiting
backtrace depth. However, this makes graphical pprof output very
difficult to interpret. In practice, decreasing sampling frequency is a
better mechanism for limiting profiling overhead.
Remove the opt.lg_prof_tcmax option and hard-code a cache size of 1024.
This setting is something that users just shouldn't have to worry about.
If lock contention actually ends up being a problem, the simple solution
available to the user is to reduce sampling frequency.
Convert configuration-related cpp conditional logic to use static
constant variables, e.g.:
#ifdef JEMALLOC_DEBUG
[...]
#endif
becomes:
if (config_debug) {
[...]
}
The advantage is clearer, more concise code. The main disadvantage is
that data structures no longer have conditionally defined fields, so
they pay the cost of all fields regardless of whether they are used. In
practice, this is only a minor concern; config_stats will go away in an
upcoming change, and config_prof is the only other major feature that
depends on more than a few special-purpose fields.
Fix prof_lookup() to artificially raise curobjs for all paths through
the code that creates a new entry in the per thread bt2cnt hash table.
This fixes a race condition that could corrupt memory if prof_accum were
false, and a non-default lg_prof_tcmax were used and/or threads were
destroyed.
