* Fix xallocx() bugs.Jason Evans2015-09-121-63/+46
| | | | | Fix xallocx() bugs related to the 'extra' parameter when specified as non-zero.
* Don't purge junk filled chunks when shrinking huge allocationsMike Hommey2015-08-281-6/+8
| | | | | | | | When junk filling is enabled, shrinking an allocation fills the bytes that were previously allocated but now aren't. Purging the chunk before doing that is just a waste of time. This resolves #260.
* Fix chunk purge hook calls for in-place huge shrinking reallocation.Mike Hommey2015-08-281-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Implement chunk hook support for page run commit/decommit.Jason Evans2015-08-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Cascade from decommit to purge when purging unused dirty pages, so that it is possible to decommit cleaned memory rather than just purging. For non-Windows debug builds, decommit runs rather than purging them, since this causes access of deallocated runs to segfault. This resolves #251.
* Generalize chunk management hooks.Jason Evans2015-08-041-23/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Implement support for non-coalescing maps on MinGW.Jason Evans2015-07-251-0/+3
| | | | | | | | - Do not reallocate huge objects in place if the number of backing chunks would change. - Do not cache multi-chunk mappings. This resolves #213.
* Fix huge_ralloc_no_move() to succeed more often.Jason Evans2015-07-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | Fix huge_ralloc_no_move() to succeed if an allocation request results in the same usable size as the existing allocation, even if the request size is smaller than the usable size. This bug did not cause correctness issues, but it could cause unnecessary moves during reallocation.
* Fix huge_palloc() to handle size rather than usize input.Jason Evans2015-07-241-6/+12
| | | | | | | | | | huge_ralloc() passes a size that may not be precisely a size class, so make huge_palloc() handle the more general case of a size input rather than usize. This regression appears to have been introduced by the addition of in-place huge reallocation; as such it was never incorporated into a release.
* Avoid atomic operations for dependent rtree reads.Jason Evans2015-05-161-1/+1
|
* Fix in-place shrinking huge reallocation purging bugs.Jason Evans2015-03-261-15/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | Fix the shrinking case of huge_ralloc_no_move_similar() to purge the correct number of pages, at the correct offset. This regression was introduced by 8d6a3e8321a7767cb2ca0930b85d5d488a8cc659 (Implement dynamic per arena control over dirty page purging.). Fix huge_ralloc_no_move_shrink() to purge the correct number of pages. This bug was introduced by 9673983443a0782d975fbcb5d8457cfd411b8b56 (Purge/zero sub-chunk huge allocations as necessary.).
* Implement dynamic per arena control over dirty page purging.Jason Evans2015-03-191-13/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add mallctls: - arenas.lg_dirty_mult is initialized via opt.lg_dirty_mult, and can be modified to change the initial lg_dirty_mult setting for newly created arenas. - arena.<i>.lg_dirty_mult controls an individual arena's dirty page purging threshold, and synchronously triggers any purging that may be necessary to maintain the constraint. - arena.<i>.chunk.purge allows the per arena dirty page purging function to be replaced. This resolves #93.
* Simplify extent_node_t and add extent_node_init().Jason Evans2015-02-171-5/+1
|
* Integrate whole chunks into unused dirty page purging machinery.Jason Evans2015-02-171-29/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | Extend per arena unused dirty page purging to manage unused dirty chunks in aaddtion to unused dirty runs. Rather than immediately unmapping deallocated chunks (or purging them in the --disable-munmap case), store them in a separate set of trees, chunks_[sz]ad_dirty. Preferrentially allocate dirty chunks. When excessive unused dirty pages accumulate, purge runs and chunks in ingegrated LRU order (and unmap chunks in the --enable-munmap case). Refactor extent_node_t to provide accessor functions.
* Normalize *_link and link_* fields to all be *_link.Jason Evans2015-02-161-3/+3
|
* Move centralized chunk management into arenas.Jason Evans2015-02-121-88/+81
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Migrate all centralized data structures related to huge allocations and recyclable chunks into arena_t, so that each arena can manage huge allocations and recyclable virtual memory completely independently of other arenas. Add chunk node caching to arenas, in order to avoid contention on the base allocator. Use chunks_rtree to look up huge allocations rather than a red-black tree. Maintain a per arena unsorted list of huge allocations (which will be needed to enumerate huge allocations during arena reset). Remove the --enable-ivsalloc option, make ivsalloc() always available, and use it for size queries if --enable-debug is enabled. The only practical implications to this removal are that 1) ivsalloc() is now always available during live debugging (and the underlying radix tree is available during core-based debugging), and 2) size query validation can no longer be enabled independent of --enable-debug. Remove the stats.chunks.{current,total,high} mallctls, and replace their underlying statistics with simpler atomically updated counters used exclusively for gdump triggering. These statistics are no longer very useful because each arena manages chunks independently, and per arena statistics provide similar information. Simplify chunk synchronization code, now that base chunk allocation cannot cause recursive lock acquisition.
* Implement explicit tcache support.Jason Evans2015-02-101-20/+16
| | | | | | | | | Add the MALLOCX_TCACHE() and MALLOCX_TCACHE_NONE macros, which can be used in conjunction with the *allocx() API. Add the tcache.create, tcache.flush, and tcache.destroy mallctls. This resolves #145.
* huge_node_locked don't have to unlock huge_mtxSébastien Marie2015-01-251-1/+0
| | | | | in src/huge.c, after each call of huge_node_locked(), huge_mtx is already unlocked. don't unlock it twice (it is a undefined behaviour).
* Implement metadata statistics.Jason Evans2015-01-241-64/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are three categories of metadata: - Base allocations are used for bootstrap-sensitive internal allocator data structures. - Arena chunk headers comprise pages which track the states of the non-metadata pages. - Internal allocations differ from application-originated allocations in that they are for internal use, and that they are omitted from heap profiles. The metadata statistics comprise the metadata categories as follows: - stats.metadata: All metadata -- base + arena chunk headers + internal allocations. - stats.arenas.<i>.metadata.mapped: Arena chunk headers. - stats.arenas.<i>.metadata.allocated: Internal allocations. This is reported separately from the other metadata statistics because it overlaps with the allocated and active statistics, whereas the other metadata statistics do not. Base allocations are not reported separately, though their magnitude can be computed by subtracting the arena-specific metadata. This resolves #163.
* Introduce two new modes of junk filling: "alloc" and "free".Guilherme Goncalves2014-12-151-6/+6
| | | | | | | | In addition to true/false, opt.junk can now be either "alloc" or "free", giving applications the possibility of junking memory only on allocation or deallocation. This resolves #172.
* Fix OOM cleanup in huge_palloc().Jason Evans2014-12-051-6/+2
| | | | | | Fix OOM cleanup in huge_palloc() to call idalloct() rather than base_node_dalloc(). This bug is a result of incomplete refactoring, and has no impact other than leaking memory during OOM.
* Fix pointer arithmetic undefined behavior.Jason Evans2014-11-171-13/+24
| | | | Reported by Denis Denisov.
* use sized deallocation internally for rallocDaniel Micay2014-10-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | The size of the source allocation is known at this point, so reading the chunk header can be avoided for the small size class fast path. This is not very useful right now, but it provides a significant performance boost with an alternate ralloc entry point taking the old size.
* Purge/zero sub-chunk huge allocations as necessary.Jason Evans2014-10-161-24/+51
| | | | | | | Purge trailing pages during shrinking huge reallocation when resulting size is not a multiple of the chunk size. Similarly, zero pages if necessary during growing huge reallocation when the resulting size is not a multiple of the chunk size.
* Fix huge allocation statistics.Jason Evans2014-10-151-74/+19
|
* Add per size class huge allocation statistics.Jason Evans2014-10-131-64/+104
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add per size class huge allocation statistics, and normalize various stats: - Change the arenas.nlruns type from size_t to unsigned. - Add the arenas.nhchunks and arenas.hchunks.<i>.size mallctl's. - Replace the stats.arenas.<i>.bins.<j>.allocated mallctl with stats.arenas.<i>.bins.<j>.curregs . - Add the stats.arenas.<i>.hchunks.<j>.nmalloc, stats.arenas.<i>.hchunks.<j>.ndalloc, stats.arenas.<i>.hchunks.<j>.nrequests, and stats.arenas.<i>.hchunks.<j>.curhchunks mallctl's.
* Add configure options.Jason Evans2014-10-101-23/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | Add: --with-lg-page --with-lg-page-sizes --with-lg-size-class-group --with-lg-quantum Get rid of STATIC_PAGE_SHIFT, in favor of directly setting LG_PAGE. Fix various edge conditions exposed by the configure options.
* Use regular arena allocation for huge tree nodes.Daniel Micay2014-10-081-4/+5
| | | | | | This avoids grabbing the base mutex, as a step towards fine-grained locking for huge allocations. The thread cache also provides a tiny (~3%) improvement for serial huge allocations.
* Refactor/fix arenas manipulation.Jason Evans2014-10-081-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Abstract arenas access to use arena_get() (or a0get() where appropriate) rather than directly reading e.g. arenas[ind]. Prior to the addition of the arenas.extend mallctl, the worst possible outcome of directly accessing arenas was a stale read, but arenas.extend may allocate and assign a new array to arenas. Add a tsd-based arenas_cache, which amortizes arenas reads. This introduces some subtle bootstrapping issues, with tsd_boot() now being split into tsd_boot[01]() to support tsd wrapper allocation bootstrapping, as well as an arenas_cache_bypass tsd variable which dynamically terminates allocation of arenas_cache itself. Promote a0malloc(), a0calloc(), and a0free() to be generally useful for internal allocation, and use them in several places (more may be appropriate). Abstract arena->nthreads management and fix a missing decrement during thread destruction (recent tsd refactoring left arenas_cleanup() unused). Change arena_choose() to propagate OOM, and handle OOM in all callers. This is important for providing consistent allocation behavior when the MALLOCX_ARENA() flag is being used. Prior to this fix, it was possible for an OOM to result in allocation silently allocating from a different arena than the one specified.
* Normalize size classes.Jason Evans2014-10-061-32/+81
| | | | | | | | | | Normalize size classes to use the same number of size classes per size doubling (currently hard coded to 4), across the intire range of size classes. Small size classes already used this spacing, but in order to support this change, additional small size classes now fill [4 KiB .. 16 KiB). Large size classes range from [16 KiB .. 4 MiB). Huge size classes now support non-multiples of the chunk size in order to fill (4 MiB .. 16 MiB).
* Attempt to expand huge allocations in-place.Daniel Micay2014-10-051-4/+70
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds support for expanding huge allocations in-place by requesting memory at a specific address from the chunk allocator. It's currently only implemented for the chunk recycling path, although in theory it could also be done by optimistically allocating new chunks. On Linux, it could attempt an in-place mremap. However, that won't work in practice since the heap is grown downwards and memory is not unmapped (in a normal build, at least). Repeated vector reallocation micro-benchmark: #include <string.h> #include <stdlib.h> int main(void) { for (size_t i = 0; i < 100; i++) { void *ptr = NULL; size_t old_size = 0; for (size_t size = 4; size < (1 << 30); size *= 2) { ptr = realloc(ptr, size); if (!ptr) return 1; memset(ptr + old_size, 0xff, size - old_size); old_size = size; } free(ptr); } } The glibc allocator fails to do any in-place reallocations on this benchmark once it passes the M_MMAP_THRESHOLD (default 128k) but it elides the cost of copies via mremap, which is currently not something that jemalloc can use. With this improvement, jemalloc still fails to do any in-place huge reallocations for the first outer loop, but then succeeds 100% of the time for the remaining 99 iterations. The time spent doing allocations and copies drops down to under 5%, with nearly all of it spent doing purging + faulting (when huge pages are disabled) and the array memset. An improved mremap API (MREMAP_RETAIN - #138) would be far more general but this is a portable optimization and would still be useful on Linux for xallocx.

* Implement in-place huge allocation shrinking.Daniel Micay2014-10-011-27/+62
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Trivial example: #include <stdlib.h> int main(void) { void *ptr = malloc(1024 * 1024 * 8); if (!ptr) return 1; ptr = realloc(ptr, 1024 * 1024 * 4); if (!ptr) return 1; } Before: mmap(NULL, 8388608, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7fcfff000000 mmap(NULL, 4194304, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7fcffec00000 madvise(0x7fcfff000000, 8388608, MADV_DONTNEED) = 0 After: mmap(NULL, 8388608, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7f1934800000 madvise(0x7f1934c00000, 4194304, MADV_DONTNEED) = 0 Closes #134
* Convert all tsd variables to reside in a single tsd structure.Jason Evans2014-09-231-10/+11

* Apply likely()/unlikely() to allocation/deallocation fast paths.Jason Evans2014-09-121-3/+3
|
* Optimize [nmd]alloc() fast paths.Jason Evans2014-09-071-1/+1
| | | | | | Optimize [nmd]alloc() fast paths such that the (flags == 0) case is streamlined, flags decoding only happens to the minimum degree necessary, and no conditionals are repeated.
* Implement per thread heap profiling.Jason Evans2014-08-201-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rename data structures (prof_thr_cnt_t-->prof_tctx_t, prof_ctx_t-->prof_gctx_t), and convert to storing a prof_tctx_t for sampled objects. Convert PROF_ALLOC_PREP() to prof_alloc_prep(), since precise backtrace depth within jemalloc functions is no longer an issue (pprof prunes irrelevant frames). Implement mallctl's: - prof.reset implements full sample data reset, and optional change of sample interval. - prof.lg_sample reads the current sample interval (opt.lg_prof_sample was the permanent source of truth prior to prof.reset). - thread.prof.name provides naming capability for threads within heap profile dumps. - thread.prof.active makes it possible to activate/deactivate heap profiling for individual threads. Modify the heap dump files to contain per thread heap profile data. This change is incompatible with the existing pprof, which will require enhancements to read and process the enriched data.
* Refactor huge allocation to be managed by arenas.Jason Evans2014-05-161-101/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Refactor huge allocation to be managed by arenas (though the global red-black tree of huge allocations remains for lookup during deallocation). This is the logical conclusion of recent changes that 1) made per arena dss precedence apply to huge allocation, and 2) made it possible to replace the per arena chunk allocation/deallocation functions. Remove the top level huge stats, and replace them with per arena huge stats. Normalize function names and types to *dalloc* (some were *dealloc*). Remove the --enable-mremap option. As jemalloc currently operates, this is a performace regression for some applications, but planned work to logarithmically space huge size classes should provide similar amortized performance. The motivation for this change was that mremap-based huge reallocation forced leaky abstractions that prevented refactoring.
* Add support for user-specified chunk allocators/deallocators.aravind2014-05-121-11/+14
| | | | | | | Add new mallctl endpoints "arena<i>.chunk.alloc" and "arena<i>.chunk.dealloc" to allow userspace to configure jemalloc's chunk allocator and deallocator on a per-arena basis.
* Make dss non-optional, and fix an "arena.<i>.dss" mallctl bug.Jason Evans2014-04-151-3/+3
| | | | | | | Make dss non-optional on all platforms which support sbrk(2). Fix the "arena.<i>.dss" mallctl to return an error if "primary" or "secondary" precedence is specified, but sbrk(2) is not supported.
* Use arena dss prec instead of default for huge allocs.Max Wang2014-03-281-10/+16
| | | | | Pass a dss_prec_t parameter to huge_{m,p,r}alloc instead of defaulting to the chunk dss prec.
* Fix junk filling for mremap(2)-based huge reallocation.Jason Evans2014-02-251-0/+10
| | | | | | | If mremap(2) is used for huge reallocation, physical pages are mapped to new virtual addresses rather than data being copied to new pages. This bypasses the normal junk filling that would happen during allocation, so add junk filling that is specific to this case.
* Extract profiling code from [re]allocation functions.Jason Evans2014-01-121-6/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extract profiling code from malloc(), imemalign(), calloc(), realloc(), mallocx(), rallocx(), and xallocx(). This slightly reduces the amount of code compiled into the fast paths, but the primary benefit is the combinatorial complexity reduction. Simplify iralloc[t]() by creating a separate ixalloc() that handles the no-move cases. Further simplify [mrxn]allocx() (and by implication [mrn]allocm()) to make request size overflows due to size class and/or alignment constraints trigger undefined behavior (detected by debug-only assertions). Report ENOMEM rather than EINVAL if an OOM occurs during heap profiling backtrace creation in imemalign(). This bug impacted posix_memalign() and aligned_alloc().
* Add junk/zero filling unit tests, and fix discovered bugs.Jason Evans2014-01-081-2/+25
| | | | | | Fix growing large reallocation to junk fill new space. Fix huge deallocation to junk fill when munmap is disabled.
* Don't junk-fill reallocations unless usize changes.Jason Evans2013-12-161-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | Don't junk fill reallocations for which the request size is less than the current usable size, but not enough smaller to cause a size class change. Unlike malloc()/calloc()/realloc(), *allocx() contractually treats the full usize as the allocation, so a caller can ask for zeroed memory via mallocx() and a series of rallocx() calls that all specify MALLOCX_ZERO, and be assured that all newly allocated bytes will be zeroed and made available to the application without danger of allocator mutation until the size class decreases enough to cause usize reduction.
* Implement the *allocx() API.Jason Evans2013-12-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement the *allocx() API, which is a successor to the *allocm() API. The *allocx() functions are slightly simpler to use because they have fewer parameters, they directly return the results of primary interest, and mallocx()/rallocx() avoid the strict aliasing pitfall that allocm()/rallocx() share with posix_memalign(). The following code violates strict aliasing rules: foo_t *foo; allocm((void **)&foo, NULL, 42, 0); whereas the following is safe: foo_t *foo; void *p; allocm(&p, NULL, 42, 0); foo = (foo_t *)p; mallocx() does not have this problem: foo_t *foo = (foo_t *)mallocx(42, 0);
* Refactor tests.Jason Evans2013-12-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | Refactor tests to use explicit testing assertions, rather than diff'ing test output. This makes the test code a bit shorter, more explicitly encodes testing intent, and makes test failure diagnosis more straightforward.
* 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().
