Daniel Hodges 11038ff762 Add support for namespace pids in heap profile names
This change adds support for writing pid namespaces to the filename of a
heap profile. When running with namespaces pids may reused across
namespaces and if mounts are shared where profiles are written there is
not a great way to differentiate profiles between pids.

Kevin Svetlitski cdb2c0e02f Implement C23's `free_sized` and `free_aligned_sized`
[N2699 - Sized Memory Deallocation](https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2699.htm)
introduced two new functions which were incorporated into the C23
standard, `free_sized` and `free_aligned_sized`. Both already have
analogues in Jemalloc, all we are doing here is adding the appropriate
wrappers.

Qi Wang 0e29ad4efa Rename zero_realloc option "strict" to "alloc".
With realloc(ptr, 0) being UB per C23, the option name "strict" makes less sense
now.  Rename to "alloc" which describes the behavior.

yunxu b798fabdf7 Add prof_leak_error option
The option makes the process to exit with error code 1 if a memory leak
is detected. This is useful for implementing automated tools that rely
on leak detection.

Alex Lapenkou 3b3257a709 Correct opt.prof_leak documentation
The option has been misleading, because it stays disabled unless
prof_final is also specified. In practice it's impossible to detect that
the option is silently disabled, because it just doesn't provide any
output as if there are no memory leaks detected.

Qi Wang 5884a076fb Rename prof.dump_prefix to prof.prefix
This better aligns with our naming convention.  The option has not been included

Azat Khuzhin a943172b73 Add runtime detection for MADV_DONTNEED zeroes pages (mostly for qemu)
qemu does not support this, yet [1], and you can get very tricky assert
if you will run program with jemalloc in use under qemu:

    <jemalloc>: ../contrib/jemalloc/src/extent.c:1195: Failed assertion: "p[i] == 0"

  [1]: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10576637/

Here is a simple example that shows the problem [2]:

    // Gist to check possible issues with MADV_DONTNEED
    // For example it does not supported by qemu user
    // There is a patch for this [1], but it hasn't been applied.
    //   [1]: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-08/msg05422.html

    {
        void *addr = mmap(NULL, 1<<16, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
        if (addr == MAP_FAILED) {
            perror("mmap");
            return 1;
        }
        memset(addr, 'A', 1<<16);

        if (!madvise(addr, 1<<16, MADV_DONTNEED)) {
            puts("MADV_DONTNEED does not return error. Check memory.");
            for (int i = 0; i < 1<<16; ++i) {
                assert(((unsigned char *)addr)[i] == 0);
            }
        } else {
            perror("madvise");
        }

        if (munmap(addr, 1<<16)) {
            perror("munmap");
            return 1;
        }

Qi Wang bf72188f80 Allow opt.tcache_max to accept small size classes.
Previously all the small size classes were cached.  However this has downsides
-- particularly when page size is greater than 4K (e.g. iOS), which will result
in much higher SMALL_MAXCLASS.

This change allows tcache_max to be set to lower values, to better control
resources taken by tcache.
2020-10-24 20:43:44 -07:00
Qi Wang c8209150f9 Switch from opt.lg_tcache_max to opt.tcache_max
Though for convenience, keep parsing lg_tcache_max.
2020-10-22 20:40:41 -07:00
Qi Wang 5e41ff9b74 Add a hard limit on tcache max size class.
For locality reasons, tcache bins are integrated in TSD.  Allowing all size
classes to be cached has little benefit, but takes up much thread local storage.
In addition, it complicates the layout which we try hard to optimize.

Qi Wang 88b0e03a4e Implement opt.stats_interval and the _opts options.
Add options stats_interval and stats_interval_opts to allow interval based stats
printing.  This provides an easy way to collect stats without code changes,
because opt.stats_print may not work (some binaries never exit).

`cbopaque` can now be overriden without overriding `write_cb` in

Qi Wang 07c44847c2 Track nfills and nflushes for arenas.i.small / large.
Small is added purely for convenience.  Large flushes wasn't tracked before and
can be useful in analysis.  Large fill simply reports nmalloc, since there is no
batch fill for large currently.

Doron Roberts-Kedes 7fc4f2a32c Add nonfull_slabs to bin_stats_t.

the new nonfull_slabs counter in bin_stats_t. This metric should be
useful for establishing an upper ceiling on the savings possible by
meshing.

Qi Wang e4f090e8df Add opt.thp which allows explicit hugepage usage.
"always" marks all user mappings as MADV_HUGEPAGE; while "never" marks all
mappings as MADV_NOHUGEPAGE. The default setting "default" does not change any
settings.  Note that all the madvise calls are part of the default extent hooks
by design, so that customized extent hooks have complete control over the
mappings including hugepage settings.
