This allows setting arenas per cpu dynamically, rather than forcing the user to
know the number of CPUs in advance if they want a particular CPU/space tradeoff.
The existing checks are good at finding such issues (on tcache flush), but not
so good at pinpointing them. Debug mode can find them, but sometimes debug mode
slows down a program so much that hard-to-hit bugs can take a long time to
crash.
This commit adds functionality to keep programs mostly on their fast paths,
while also checking every sized delete argument they get.
The sized dealloc checks called the generic safety_check_fail, and then called
abort. This means the failure case isn't mockable, hence not testable. Fix it
in anticipation of a coming diff.
This gives more accurate attribution of bytes and counts to stack traces,
without introducing backwards incompatibilities in heap-profile parsing tools.
We track the ideal reported (to the end user) number of bytes more carefully
inside core jemalloc. When dumping heap profiles, insteading of outputting our
counts directly, we output counts that will cause parsing tools to give a result
close to the value we want.
We retain the old version as an opt setting, to let users who are tracking
values on a per-component basis to keep their metrics stable until they decide
to switch.
For now, this is just a stub containing the ecaches, with no surrounding code
changed. Eventually all the core allocator bits will be moved in, in the
subsequent stack of commits.
In making these settings configurable, 634afc4124
unintentially changed a tuning parameter (reducing the "goal" max by a factor of
4). This commit undoes that change.
