* Port to FreeBSD.Jason Evans2012-02-031-5/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use FreeBSD-specific functions (_pthread_mutex_init_calloc_cb(), _malloc_{pre,post}fork()) to avoid bootstrapping issues due to allocation in libc and libthr. Add malloc_strtoumax() and use it instead of strtoul(). Disable validation code in malloc_vsnprintf() and malloc_strtoumax() until jemalloc is initialized. This is necessary because locale initialization causes allocation for both vsnprintf() and strtoumax(). Force the lazy-lock feature on in order to avoid pthread_self(), because it causes allocation. Use syscall(SYS_write, ...) rather than write(...), because libthr wraps write() and causes allocation. Without this workaround, it would not be possible to print error messages in malloc_conf_init() without substantially reworking bootstrapping. Fix choose_arena_hard() to look at how many threads are assigned to the candidate choice, rather than checking whether the arena is uninitialized. This bug potentially caused more arenas to be initialized than necessary.
* Remove ephemeral mutexes.Jason Evans2012-03-241-12/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | Remove ephemeral mutexes from the prof machinery, and remove malloc_mutex_destroy(). This simplifies mutex management on systems that call malloc()/free() inside pthread_mutex_{create,destroy}(). Add atomic_*_u() for operation on unsigned values. Fix prof_printf() to call malloc_vsnprintf() rather than malloc_snprintf().
* Fix fork-related bugs.Jason Evans2012-03-131-0/+26
| | | | | | | | | 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.
* Use glibc allocator hooks.Jason Evans2012-02-291-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | When jemalloc is used as a libc malloc replacement (i.e. not prefixed), some particular setups may end up inconsistently calling malloc from libc and free from jemalloc, or the other way around. glibc provides hooks to make its functions use alternative implementations. Use them. Submitted by Karl Tomlinson and Mike Hommey.
