      Add arena-specific and selective dss allocation. · 609ae595
      Jason Evans authored
      Add the "arenas.extend" mallctl, so that it is possible to create new
      arenas that are outside the set that jemalloc automatically multiplexes
      threads onto.
      
      Add the ALLOCM_ARENA() flag for {,r,d}allocm(), so that it is possible
      to explicitly allocate from a particular arena.
      
      Add the "opt.dss" mallctl, which controls the default precedence of dss
      allocation relative to mmap allocation.
      
      Add the "arena.<i>.dss" mallctl, which makes it possible to set the
      default dss precedence on a per arena or global basis.
      
      Add the "arena.<i>.purge" mallctl, which obsoletes "arenas.purge".
      
      Add the "stats.arenas.<i>.dss" mallctl.

      mark _pthread_mutex_init_calloc_cb as public explicitly · d0ffd8ed
      Jan Beich authored
      Mozilla build hides everything by default using visibility pragma and
      unhides only explicitly listed headers. But this doesn't work on FreeBSD
      because _pthread_mutex_init_calloc_cb is neither documented nor exposed
      via any header.

      Make malloc_usable_size() implementation consistent with prototype. · 2cc11ff8
      Jason Evans authored
      Use JEMALLOC_USABLE_SIZE_CONST for the malloc_usable_size()
      implementation as well as the prototype, for consistency's sake.

      Drop const from malloc_usable_size() argument on Linux, in order to
      match the prototype in Linux's malloc.h.

      Fix fork(2)-related mutex acquisition order. · b5225928
      Jason Evans authored
      Fix mutex acquisition order inversion for the chunks rtree and the base
      mutex.  Chunks rtree acquisition was introduced by the previous commit,
      so this bug was short-lived.

      Fix fork(2)-related deadlocks. · 20f1fc95
      Jason Evans authored
      Add a library constructor for jemalloc that initializes the allocator.
      This fixes a race that could occur if threads were created by the main
      thread prior to any memory allocation, followed by fork(2), and then
      memory allocation in the child process.
      
      Fix the prefork/postfork functions to acquire/release the ctl, prof, and
      rtree mutexes.  This fixes various fork() child process deadlocks, but
      one possible deadlock remains (intentionally) unaddressed: prof
      backtracing can acquire runtime library mutexes, so deadlock is still
      possible if heap profiling is enabled during fork().  This deadlock is
      known to be a real issue in at least the case of libgcc-based
      backtracing.

      Fix large calloc() zeroing bugs. · d8ceef6c
      Jason Evans authored
      Refactor code such that arena_mapbits_{large,small}_set() always
      preserves the unzeroed flag, and manually manipulate the unzeroed flag
      in the one case where it actually gets reset (in arena_chunk_purge()).
      This fixes unzeroed preservation bugs in arena_run_split() and
      arena_ralloc_large_grow().  These bugs caused large calloc() to return
      non-zeroed memory under some circumstances.

      Fix chunk_recycle() to stop leaking trailing chunks. · 374d26a4
      Jason Evans authored
      Fix chunk_recycle() to correctly compute trailsize and re-insert
      trailing chunks.  This fixes a major virtual memory leak.
      
      Simplify chunk_record() to avoid dropping/re-acquiring chunks_mtx.

      Fix chunk_alloc_mmap() bugs. · de6fbdb7
      Jason Evans authored
      Simplify chunk_alloc_mmap() to no longer attempt map extension.  The
      extra complexity isn't warranted, because although in the success case
      it saves one system call as compared to immediately falling back to
      chunk_alloc_mmap_slow(), it also makes the failure case even more
      expensive.  This simplification removes two bugs:
      
      - For Windows platforms, pages_unmap() wasn't being called for unaligned
        mappings prior to falling back to chunk_alloc_mmap_slow().  This
        caused permanent virtual memory leaks.
      - For non-Windows platforms, alignment greater than chunksize caused
        pages_map() to be called with size 0 when attempting map extension.
        This always resulted in an mmap() error, and subsequent fallback to
        chunk_alloc_mmap_slow().
