      Fix "prof.reset" mallctl-related corruption. · a00b1073
      Jason Evans authored
      Fix heap profiling to distinguish among otherwise identical sample sites
      with interposed resets (triggered via the "prof.reset" mallctl).  This
      bug could cause data structure corruption that would most likely result
      in a segfault.

      Fix chunk purge hook calls for in-place huge shrinking reallocation. · 6d8075f1
      Mike Hommey authored
      Fix chunk purge hook calls for in-place huge shrinking reallocation to
      specify the old chunk size rather than the new chunk size.  This bug
      caused no correctness issues for the default chunk purge function, but
      was visible to custom functions set via the "arena.<i>.chunk_hooks"
      mallctl.
      
      This resolves #264.

      Generalize chunk management hooks. · b49a334a
      Jason Evans authored
      Add the "arena.<i>.chunk_hooks" mallctl, which replaces and expands on
      the "arena.<i>.chunk.{alloc,dalloc,purge}" mallctls.  The chunk hooks
      allow control over chunk allocation/deallocation, decommit/commit,
      purging, and splitting/merging, such that the application can rely on
      jemalloc's internal chunk caching and retaining functionality, yet
      implement a variety of chunk management mechanisms and policies.
      
      Merge the chunks_[sz]ad_{mmap,dss} red-black trees into
      chunks_[sz]ad_retained.  This slightly reduces how hard jemalloc tries
      to honor the dss precedence setting; prior to this change the precedence
      setting was also consulted when recycling chunks.
      
      Fix chunk purging.  Don't purge chunks in arena_purge_stashed(); instead
      deallocate them in arena_unstash_purged(), so that the dirty memory
      linkage remains valid until after the last time it is used.
      
      This resolves #176 and #201.

      Fix size class overflow handling for malloc(), posix_memalign(),

      Implement cache index randomization for large allocations. · 8a03cf03
      Jason Evans authored
      Extract szad size quantization into {extent,run}_quantize(), and .
      quantize szad run sizes to the union of valid small region run sizes and
      large run sizes.
      
      Refactor iteration in arena_run_first_fit() to use
      run_quantize{,_first,_next(), and add support for padded large runs.
      
      For large allocations that have no specified alignment constraints,
      compute a pseudo-random offset from the beginning of the first backing
      page that is a multiple of the cache line size.  Under typical
      configurations with 4-KiB pages and 64-byte cache lines this results in
      a uniform distribution among 64 page boundary offsets.
      
      Add the --disable-cache-oblivious option, primarily intended for
      performance testing.
      
      This resolves #13.

      Rename pprof to jeprof. · 7041720a
      Jason Evans authored
      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.

      Disable floating point code/linking when possible. · d37d5ade
      Jason Evans authored
      Unless heap profiling is enabled, disable floating point code and don't
      link with libm.  This, in combination with e.g. EXTRA_CFLAGS=-mno-sse on
      x64 systems, makes it possible to completely disable floating point
      register use.  Some versions of glibc neglect to save/restore
      caller-saved floating point registers during dynamic lazy symbol
      loading, and the symbol loading code uses whatever malloc the
      application happens to have linked/loaded with, the result being
      potential floating point register corruption.

      Refactor to support more varied testing. · 86abd0dc
      Jason Evans authored
      Refactor the test harness to support three types of tests:
      - unit: White box unit tests.  These tests have full access to all
        internal jemalloc library symbols.  Though in actuality all symbols
        are prefixed by jet_, macro-based name mangling abstracts this away
        from test code.
      - integration: Black box integration tests.  These tests link with
        the installable shared jemalloc library, and with the exception of
        some utility code and configure-generated macro definitions, they have
        no access to jemalloc internals.
      - stress: Black box stress tests.  These tests link with the installable
        shared jemalloc library, as well as with an internal allocator with
        symbols prefixed by jet_ (same as for unit tests) that can be used to
        allocate data structures that are internal to the test code.
      
      Move existing tests into test/{unit,integration}/ as appropriate.
      
      Split out internal parts of jemalloc_defs.h.in and put them in
      jemalloc_internal_defs.h.in.  This reduces internals exposure to
      applications that #include <jemalloc/jemalloc.h>.
      
      Refactor jemalloc.h header generation so that a single header file
      results, and the prototypes can be used to generate jet_ prototypes for
      tests.  Split jemalloc.h.in into multiple parts (jemalloc_defs.h.in,
      jemalloc_macros.h.in, jemalloc_protos.h.in, jemalloc_mangle.h.in) and
      use a shell script to generate a unified jemalloc.h at configure time.
      
      Change the default private namespace prefix from "" to "je_".
      
      Add missing private namespace mangling.
      
      Remove hard-coded private_namespace.h.  Instead generate it and
      private_unnamespace.h from private_symbols.txt.  Use similar logic for
      public symbols, which aids in name mangling for jet_ symbols.
      
      Add test_warn() and test_fail().  Replace existing exit(1) calls with
      test_fail() calls.
