If we guarantee no malloc activity in extent hooks, it's possible to make
customized hooks working on arena 0. Remove the non-a0 assertion to enable such
use cases.
This is the first step towards breaking up the tcache and arena (since they
interact primarily at the bin level). It should also make a future arena
caching implementation more straightforward.
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.
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).
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.
