Rafael Folco 701daa5298 Port CPU_SPINWAIT to __powerpc64__
Hyper-threaded CPUs may need a special instruction inside spin loops in
order to yield to another virtual CPU. The 'pause' instruction that is
available for x86 is not supported on Power.
Apparently the extended mnemonics like yield, mdoio, and mdoom are not
actually implemented on POWER8, although mentioned in the ISA 2.07
document. The recommended magic bits are an 'or 31,31,31'.

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 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.
