* Implement per-CPU arena.Qi Wang2017-03-095-29/+150
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new feature, opt.percpu_arena, determines thread-arena association dynamically based CPU id. Three modes are supported: "percpu", "phycpu" and disabled. "percpu" uses the current core id (with help from sched_getcpu()) directly as the arena index, while "phycpu" will assign threads on the same physical CPU to the same arena. In other words, "percpu" means # of arenas == # of CPUs, while "phycpu" has # of arenas == 1/2 * (# of CPUs). Note that no runtime check on whether hyper threading is enabled is added yet. When enabled, threads will be migrated between arenas when a CPU change is detected. In the current design, to reduce overhead from reading CPU id, each arena tracks the thread accessed most recently. When a new thread comes in, we will read CPU id and update arena if necessary.
* Fix arena_prefork lock rank order for witness.Qi Wang2017-03-092-12/+30
| | | | | | | | When witness is enabled, lock rank order needs to be preserved during prefork, not only for each arena, but also across arenas. This change breaks arena_prefork into further stages to ensure valid rank order across arenas. Also changed test/unit/fork to use a manual arena to catch this case.
* Convert extents_t's npages field to use C11-style atomicsDavid Goldblatt2017-03-091-6/+23
| | | | | | In the process, we can do some strength reduction, changing the fetch-adds and fetch-subs to be simple loads followed by stores, since the modifications all occur while holding the mutex.
* Store associated arena in tcache.Qi Wang2017-03-073-9/+11
| | | | | | This fixes tcache_flush for manual tcaches, which wasn't able to find the correct arena it associated with. Also changed the decay test to cover this case (by using manually created arenas).
* Use any-best-fit for cached extent allocation.Jason Evans2017-03-071-5/+8
| | | | | | This simplifies what would be pairing heap operations to the equivalent of LIFO queue operations. This is a complementary optimization in the context of delayed coalescing for cached extents.
* Perform delayed coalescing prior to purging.Jason Evans2017-03-072-46/+133
| | | | | | | | | Rather than purging uncoalesced extents, perform just enough incremental coalescing to purge only fully coalesced extents. In the absence of cached extent reuse, the immediate versus delayed incremental purging algorithms result in the same purge order. This resolves #655.

* Disentangle assert and utilDavid Goldblatt2017-03-061-11/+31
| | | | | | | | | This is the first header refactoring diff, #533. It splits the assert and util components into separate, hermetic, header files. In the process, it splits out two of the large sub-components of util (the stdio.h replacement, and bit manipulation routines) into their own components (malloc_io.h and bit_util.h). This is mostly to break up cyclic dependencies, but it also breaks off a good chunk of the catch-all-ness of util, which is nice.
* Optimize malloc_large_stats_t maintenance.Jason Evans2017-03-041-29/+6
| | | | | | | | | | Convert the nrequests field to be partially derived, and the curlextents to be fully derived, in order to reduce the number of stats updates needed during common operations. This change affects ndalloc stats during arena reset, because it is no longer possible to cancel out ndalloc effects (curlextents would become negative).
* Introduce a backport of C11 atomicsDavid Goldblatt2017-03-031-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces a backport of C11 atomics. It has four implementations; ranked in order of preference, they are: - GCC/Clang __atomic builtins - GCC/Clang __sync builtins - MSVC _Interlocked builtins - C11 atomics, from <stdatomic.h> The primary advantages are: - Close adherence to the standard API gives us a defined memory model. - Type safety: atomic objects are now separate types from non-atomic ones, so that it's impossible to mix up atomic and non-atomic updates (which is undefined behavior that compilers are starting to take advantage of). - Efficiency: we can specify ordering for operations, avoiding fences and atomic operations on strongly ordered architectures (example: `atomic_write_u32(ptr, val);` involves a CAS loop, whereas `atomic_store(ptr, val, ATOMIC_RELEASE);` is a plain store. This diff leaves in the current atomics API (implementing them in terms of the backport). This lets us transition uses over piecemeal. Testing: This is by nature hard to test. I've manually tested the first three options on Linux on gcc by futzing with the #defines manually, on freebsd with gcc and clang, on MSVC, and on OS X with clang. All of these were x86 machines though, and we don't have any test infrastructure set up for non-x86 platforms.
* Immediately purge cached extents if decay_time is 0.Jason Evans2017-03-032-38/+34
| | | | | | | | This fixes a regression caused by 54269dc0ed3e4d04b2539016431de3cfe8330719 (Remove obsolete arena_maybe_purge() call.), as well as providing a general fix. This resolves #665.

* Small style fix in ctl.cQi Wang2017-03-011-2/+1
|
* Add casts to CONF_HANDLE_T_U().Jason Evans2017-03-011-4/+4
| | | | | This avoids signed/unsigned comparison warnings when specifying integer constants as inputs.
* Fix {allocated,nmalloc,ndalloc,nrequests}_large stats regression.Jason Evans2017-02-271-14/+2
| | | | | | This fixes a regression introduced by d433471f581ca50583c7a99f9802f7388f81aa36 (Derive {allocated,nmalloc,ndalloc,nrequests}_large stats.).
* Tidy up extent quantization.Jason Evans2017-02-271-21/+5
| | | | | | | Remove obsolete unit test scaffolding for extent quantization. Remove redundant assertions. Add an assertion to extents_first_best_fit_locked() that should help prevent aligned allocation regressions.
* Remove remainder of mb (memory barrier).Jason Evans2017-02-221-2/+0
| | | | | This complements 94c5d22a4da7844d0bdc5b370e47b1ba14268af2 (Remove mb.h, which is unused).
* Remove obsolete arena_maybe_purge() call.Jason Evans2017-02-211-4/+0
| | | | | Remove a call to arena_maybe_purge() that was necessary for ratio-based purging, but is obsolete in the context of decay-based purging.
* Disable coalescing of cached extents.Jason Evans2017-02-172-23/+38
| | | | | | | | Extent splitting and coalescing is a major component of large allocation overhead, and disabling coalescing of cached extents provides a simple and effective hysteresis mechanism. Once two-phase purging is implemented, it will probably make sense to leave coalescing disabled for the first phase, but coalesce during the second phase.
* Optimize extent coalescing.Jason Evans2017-02-171-20/+23
| | | | | Refactor extent_can_coalesce(), extent_coalesce(), and extent_record() to avoid needlessly repeating extent [de]activation operations.
* Fix arena->stats.mapped accounting.Jason Evans2017-02-162-26/+58
| | | | | Mapped memory increases when extent_alloc_wrapper() succeeds, and decreases when extent_dalloc_wrapper() is called (during purging).
* Synchronize arena->decay with arena->decay.mtx.Jason Evans2017-02-161-25/+31
| | | | This removes the last use of arena->lock.
* Derive {allocated,nmalloc,ndalloc,nrequests}_large stats.Jason Evans2017-02-161-22/+23
| | | | This mildly reduces stats update overhead during normal operation.
* Synchronize arena->tcache_ql with arena->tcache_ql_mtx.Jason Evans2017-02-163-14/+22
| | | | This replaces arena->lock synchronization.
* Convert arena->stats synchronization to atomics.Jason Evans2017-02-163-218/+307

* Convert arena->prof_accumbytes synchronization to atomics.Jason Evans2017-02-163-15/+19

* Convert arena->dss_prec synchronization to atomics.Jason Evans2017-02-162-14/+7
|
* Do not generate unused tsd_*_[gs]et() functions.Jason Evans2017-02-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | This avoids a gcc diagnostic note: note: The ABI for passing parameters with 64-byte alignment has changed in GCC 4.6 This note related to the cacheline alignment of rtree_ctx_t, which was introduced by 4a346f55939af4f200121cc4454089592d952f18 (Replace rtree path cache with LRU cache.).
* Fix extent_alloc_dss() regression.Jason Evans2017-02-101-19/+29
| | | | | | | Fix extent_alloc_dss() to account for bytes that are not a multiple of the page size. This regression was introduced by 577d4572b0821a15e5370f9bf566d884b7cf707c (Make dss operations lockless.), which was first released in 4.3.0.
* Replace spin_init() with SPIN_INITIALIZER.Jason Evans2017-02-092-5/+2
|
* Remove rtree support for 0 (NULL) keys.Jason Evans2017-02-091-10/+8
| | | | | NULL can never actually be inserted in practice, and removing support allows a branch to be removed from the fast path.
* Determine rtree levels at compile time.Jason Evans2017-02-092-111/+28
| | | | | | | Rather than dynamically building a table to aid per level computations, define a constant table at compile time. Omit both high and low insignificant bits. Use one to three tree levels, depending on the number of significant bits.
* Remove rtree leading 0 bit optimization.Jason Evans2017-02-091-53/+12
| | | | A subsequent change instead ignores insignificant high bits.
* Make non-essential inline rtree functions static functions.Jason Evans2017-02-091-8/+69
|
* Split rtree_elm_lookup_hard() out of rtree_elm_lookup().Jason Evans2017-02-091-0/+105
| | | | | Anything but a hit in the first element of the lookup cache is expensive enough to negate the benefits of inlining.
* Fix extent_record().Jason Evans2017-02-071-18/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Read adjacent rtree elements while holding element locks, since the extents mutex only protects against relevant like-state extent mutation. Fix management of the 'coalesced' loop state variable to merge forward/backward results, rather than overwriting the result of forward coalescing if attempting to coalesce backward. In practice this caused no correctness issues, but could cause extra iterations in rare cases. These regressions were introduced by d27f29b468ae3e9d2b1da4a9880351d76e5a1662 (Disentangle arena and extent locking.).
* Fix a race in extent_grow_retained().Jason Evans2017-02-041-9/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Set extent as active prior to registration so that other threads can't modify it in the absence of locking. This regression was introduced by d27f29b468ae3e9d2b1da4a9880351d76e5a1662 (Disentangle arena and extent locking.), via non-obvious means. Removal of extents_mtx protection during extent_grow_retained() execution opened up the race, but in the presence of that locking, the code was safe. This resolves #599.
* Optimize compute_size_with_overflow().Jason Evans2017-02-041-5/+16
| | | | Do not check for overflow unless it is actually a possibility.
* Fix compute_size_with_overflow().Jason Evans2017-02-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | Fix compute_size_with_overflow() to use a high_bits mask that has the high bits set, rather than the low bits. This regression was introduced by 5154ff32ee8c37bacb6afd8a07b923eb33228357 (Unify the allocation paths).
* Disentangle arena and extent locking.Jason Evans2017-02-026-531/+551
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Refactor arena and extent locking protocols such that arena and extent locks are never held when calling into the extent_*_wrapper() API. This requires extra care during purging since the arena lock no longer protects the inner purging logic. It also requires extra care to protect extents from being merged with adjacent extents. Convert extent_t's 'active' flag to an enumerated 'state', so that retained extents are explicitly marked as such, rather than depending on ring linkage state. Refactor the extent collections (and their synchronization) for cached and retained extents into extents_t. Incorporate LRU functionality to support purging. Incorporate page count accounting, which replaces arena->ndirty and arena->stats.retained. Assert that no core locks are held when entering any internal [de]allocation functions. This is in addition to existing assertions that no locks are held when entering external [de]allocation functions. Audit and document synchronization protocols for all arena_t fields. This fixes a potential deadlock due to recursive allocation during gdump, in a similar fashion to b49c649bc18fff4bd10a1c8adbaf1f25f6453cb6 (Fix lock order reversal during gdump.), but with a necessarily much broader code impact.
* Fix/refactor tcaches synchronization.Jason Evans2017-02-023-14/+79
| | | | | | | Synchronize tcaches with tcaches_mtx rather than ctl_mtx. Add missing synchronization for tcache flushing. This bug was introduced by 1cb181ed632e7573fb4eab194e4d216867222d27 (Implement explicit tcache support.), which was first released in 4.0.0.
* Add witness_assert_depth[_to_rank]().Jason Evans2017-02-021-8/+9
| | | | | This makes it possible to make lock state assertions about precisely which locks are held.
* Synchronize extent_grow_next accesses.Jason Evans2017-02-021-3/+15
| | | | | | This should have been part of 411697adcda2fd75e135cdcdafb95f2bd295dc7f (Use exponential series to size extents.), which introduced extent_grow_next.
* Call prof_gctx_create() without owing bt2gctx_mtx.Jason Evans2017-02-021-12/+29
| | | | | | | This reduces the probability of allocating (and thereby indirectly making a system call) while owning bt2gctx_mtx. Unfortunately it is an incomplete solution, because ckh insertion/deletion can also allocate/deallocate, which requires more extensive changes to address.
* Conditionalize prof fork handling on config_prof.Jason Evans2017-02-021-4/+4
| | | | This allows the compiler to completely remove dead code.
* Handle race in stats_arena_bins_printQi Wang2017-02-011-2/+11
| | | | | | | When multiple threads calling stats_print, race could happen as we read the counters in separate mallctl calls; and the removed assertion could fail when other operations happened in between the mallctl calls. For simplicity, output "race" in the utilization field in this case.
* Fix a bug in which a potentially invalid usize replaced sizeDavid Goldblatt2017-01-251-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | In the refactoring that unified the allocation paths, usize was substituted for size. This worked fine under the default test configuration, but triggered asserts when we started beefing up our CI testing. This change fixes the issue, and clarifies the comment describing the argument selection that it got wrong.
* Avoid redeclaring glibc's secure_getenvTamir Duberstein2017-01-251-4/+6
| | | | | | Avoid the name secure_getenv to avoid redeclaring secure_getenv when secure_getenv is present but its use is manually disabled via ac_cv_func_secure_getenv=no.
* Replace tabs following #define with spaces.Jason Evans2017-01-2127-159/+159
| | | | This resolves #564.
* Remove extraneous parens around return arguments.Jason Evans2017-01-2120-579/+574
| | | | This resolves #540.
