* Add arena-specific and selective dss allocation.Jason Evans2012-10-131-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Add the --enable-mremap option.Jason Evans2012-05-091-1/+1
| | | | | | Add the --enable-mremap option, and disable the use of mremap(2) by default, for the same reason that freeing chunks via munmap(2) is disabled by default on Linux: semi-permanent VM map fragmentation.
* Use Get/SetLastError on Win32Mike Hommey2012-04-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Using errno on win32 doesn't quite work, because the value set in a shared library can't be read from e.g. an executable calling the function setting errno. At the same time, since buferror always uses errno/GetLastError, don't pass it.
* Fix chunk allocation/deallocation bugs.Jason Evans2012-04-211-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | Fix chunk_alloc_dss() to zero memory when requested. Fix chunk_dealloc() to avoid chunk_dealloc_mmap() for dss-allocated memory. Fix huge_palloc() to always junk fill when requested. Improve chunk_recycle() to report that memory is zeroed as a side effect of pages_purge().
* Implement Valgrind support, redzones, and quarantine.Jason Evans2012-04-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement Valgrind support, as well as the redzone and quarantine features, which help Valgrind detect memory errors. Redzones are only implemented for small objects because the changes necessary to support redzones around large and huge objects are complicated by in-place reallocation, to the point that it isn't clear that the maintenance burden is worth the incremental improvement to Valgrind support. Merge arena_salloc() and arena_salloc_demote(). Refactor i[v]salloc() to expose the 'demote' option.
* Add alignment support to chunk_alloc().Mike Hommey2012-04-101-84/+8

* Fix fork-related bugs.Jason Evans2012-03-131-0/+21
| | | | | | | | | Acquire/release arena bin locks as part of the prefork/postfork. This bug made deadlock in the child between fork and exec a possibility. Split jemalloc_postfork() into jemalloc_postfork_{parent,child}() so that the child can reinitialize mutexes rather than unlocking them. In practice, this bug tended not to cause problems.
* Implement malloc_vsnprintf().Jason Evans2012-03-081-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | Implement malloc_vsnprintf() (a subset of vsnprintf(3)) as well as several other printing functions based on it, so that formatted printing can be relied upon without concern for inducing a dependency on floating point runtime support. Replace malloc_write() calls with malloc_*printf() where doing so simplifies the code. Add name mangling for library-private symbols in the data and BSS sections. Adjust CONF_HANDLE_*() macros in malloc_conf_init() to expose all opt_* variable use to cpp so that proper mangling occurs.
* Remove the swap feature.Jason Evans2012-02-131-6/+4
| | | | | Remove the swap feature, which enabled per application swap files. In practice this feature has not proven itself useful to users.
* Reduce cpp conditional logic complexity.Jason Evans2012-02-111-51/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert configuration-related cpp conditional logic to use static constant variables, e.g.: #ifdef JEMALLOC_DEBUG [...] #endif becomes: if (config_debug) { [...] } The advantage is clearer, more concise code. The main disadvantage is that data structures no longer have conditionally defined fields, so they pay the cost of all fields regardless of whether they are used. In practice, this is only a minor concern; config_stats will go away in an upcoming change, and config_prof is the only other major feature that depends on more than a few special-purpose fields.
* Fix huge_ralloc to maintain chunk statistics.Jason Evans2011-11-111-5/+6
| | | | | Fix huge_ralloc() to properly maintain chunk statistics when using mremap(2).
* Fix huge_ralloc() race when using mremap(2).Jason Evans2011-11-091-3/+9
| | | | | | | | | Fix huge_ralloc() to remove the old memory region from tree of huge allocations *before* calling mremap(2), in order to make sure that no other thread acquires the old memory region via mmap() and encounters stale metadata in the tree. Reported by: Rich Prohaska
* Move repo contents in jemalloc/ to top level.Jason Evans2011-04-011-0/+379
