Fix a race that caused a non-critical assertion failure. To trigger the race, a thread had to be part way through initializing a new sample, such that it was discoverable by the dumping thread, but not yet linked into its gctx by the time a later dump phase would normally have reset its state to 'nominal'. Additionally, lock access to the state field during modification to transition to the dumping state. It's not apparent that this oversight could have caused an actual problem due to outer locking that protects the dumping machinery, but the added locking pedantically follows the stated locking protocol for the state field. |

jemalloc is a general purpose malloc(3) implementation that emphasizes fragmentation avoidance and scalable concurrency support. jemalloc first came into use as the FreeBSD libc allocator in 2005, and since then it has found its way into numerous applications that rely on its predictable behavior. In 2010 jemalloc development efforts broadened to include developer support features such as heap profiling, Valgrind integration, and extensive monitoring/tuning hooks. Modern jemalloc releases continue to be integrated back into FreeBSD, and therefore versatility remains critical. Ongoing development efforts trend toward making jemalloc among the best allocators for a broad range of demanding applications, and eliminating/mitigating weaknesses that have practical repercussions for real world applications. The COPYING file contains copyright and licensing information. The INSTALL file contains information on how to configure, build, and install jemalloc. The ChangeLog file contains a brief summary of changes for each release. URL: http://www.canonware.com/jemalloc/
