This is the first release to + incorporate substantial contributions from numerous other developers, and the + result is a more broadly useful allocator (see the git revision history for + contribution details). Note that the license has been unified, thanks to + Facebook granting a license under the same terms as the other copyright + holders (see COPYING). + + New features: + - Implement Valgrind support, redzones, and quarantine. + - Add support for additional operating systems: + + FreeBSD + + Mac OS X Lion + - Add support for additional architectures: + + MIPS + + SH4 + + Tilera + - Add support for cross compiling. + - Add nallocm(), which rounds a request size up to the nearest size class + without actually allocating. + - Implement aligned_alloc() (blame C11). + - Add the --disable-munmap option, and make it the default on Linux. + - Add the --with-mangling option. + - Add the --disable-experimental option. + - Add the "thread.tcache.enabled" mallctl. + + Incompatible changes: + - Enable stats by default. + - Enable fill by default. + - Disable lazy locking by default. + - Rename the "tcache.flush" mallctl to "thread.tcache.flush". + - Rename the "arenas.pagesize" mallctl to "arenas.page". + + Removed features: + - Remove the swap feature, including the "config.swap", "swap.avail", + "swap.prezeroed", "swap.nfds", and "swap.fds" mallctls. + - Remove highruns statistics, including the + "stats.arenas.<i>.bins.<j>.highruns" and + "stats.arenas.<i>.lruns.<j>.highruns" mallctls. + - As part of small size class refactoring, remove the "opt.lg_[qc]space_max", + "arenas.cacheline", "arenas.subpage", "arenas.[tqcs]space_{min,max}", and + "arenas.[tqcs]bins" mallctls. + - Remove the "arenas.chunksize" mallctl. + - Remove the "opt.lg_prof_tcmax" option. + - Remove the "opt.lg_prof_bt_max" option. + - Remove the "opt.lg_tcache_gc_sweep" option. + - Remove the --disable-tiny option, including the "config.tiny" mallctl. + - Remove the --enable-dynamic-page-shift configure option. + - Remove the --enable-sysv configure option. + + Bug fixes: + - Fix fork-related bugs that could cause deadlock in children between fork + and exec. + - Fix a statistics-related bug in the "thread.arena" mallctl that could cause + invalid statistics and crashes. + - Work around TLS dallocation via free() on Linux. This bug could cause + write-after-free memory corruption. + - Fix malloc_stats_print() to honor 'b' and 'l' in the opts parameter. + - Fix realloc(p, 0) to act like free(p). + - Do not enforce minimum alignment in memalign(). + - Check for NULL pointer in malloc_usable_size(). + - Fix bin->runcur management to fix a layout policy bug. This bug did not + affect correctness. + - Fix a bug in choose_arena_hard() that potentially caused more arenas to be + initialized than necessary. + - Add missing "opt.lg_tcache_max" mallctl implementation. + - Use glibc allocator hooks to make mixed allocator usage less likely. + - Fix build issues for --disable-tcache. + * 2.2.5 (November 14, 2011) Bug fixes: |
