Pass the retain and exclude parameters to the /pprof/symbol pprof server
endpoint so that the server has the opportunity to optimize which
symbols it looks up and/or returns mappings for.
Summary:
Currently an HTTP error response will still try to be parsed, resulting in these messages:
substr outside of string at /home/davejwatson/local/jemalloc-github/bin/jeprof line 3635, <PROFILE> line 1.
Use of uninitialized value in string eq at /home/davejwatson/local/jemalloc-github/bin/jeprof line 3635, <PROFILE> line 1.

/home/davejwatson/jeprof/server.1452638936.localhost.pprof.heap: header size >= 2**16
After this fix, curl will return an error status code that will be correctly checked at line 3536, resulting in this error message:
Failed to get profile: curl -s --fail 'http://localhost:4010/pprof/heap' > /home/davejwatson/jeprof/.tmp.server.1452639085.localhost.pprof.heap: No such file or directory
Test Plan:
Tested with MALLOC_CONF="prof:false". Also tested fetching symbols. Didn't test redirects, but this should only affect http error codes >= 400
This rename avoids installation collisions with the upstream gperftools.
Additionally, jemalloc's per thread heap profile functionality
introduced an incompatible file format, so it's now worthwhile to
clearly distinguish jemalloc's version of this script from the upstream
version.
This resolves#229.
Currently pprof will print output for all threads if a single thread is not
specified, but this doesn't play well with many output formats (e.g., any of
the dot-based formats). Instead, default to printing just the overall profile
when no specific thread is requested.
This resolves#157.
- Add a --thread N option to select profile for thread N (otherwise, all
threads will be printed)
- The $profile map now has a {threads} element that is a map from thread id to
a profile that has the same format as the {profile} element
- Refactor ReadHeapProfile into smaller components and use them to implement
ReadThreadedHeapProfile
Simplify backtracing to not ignore any frames, and compensate for this
in pprof in order to increase flexibility with respect to function-based
refactoring even in the presence of non-deterministic inlining. Modify
pprof to blacklist all jemalloc allocation entry points including
non-standard ones like mallocx(), and ignore all allocator-internal
frames. Prior to this change, pprof excluded the specifically
blacklisted functions from backtraces, but it left allocator-internal
frames intact.
- Use the extensions autoconf finds for object and executable files.
- Remove the sorev variable, and replace SOREV definition with sorev's.
- Default to je_ prefix on win32.
This allows for different patterns for file names:
- lib.so.version for e.g. Linux
- lib.version.dylib for OSX (which is much more common than
lib.dylib.version)
- lib.dll for Windows (no version at all).
Refactor the SO and REV such that they are set via autoconf variables,
@so@ and @rev@. These variables are both needed by the jemalloc.sh
script, so this unifies their definitions.
