The runtime option aborted on every OOM, breaking new(std::nothrow)
semantics. Replace with configure-time --enable-cxx-infallible-new
(default off): when on, throwing new aborts (size logged) and
nothrow returns null; when off, standard new_handler + bad_alloc /
null behavior is preserved. Under LTO the on-path lets the compiler
prove operator new is no-throw.
The split managed one ordering constraint: arena_choose() had to be
defined before arena_choose_maybe_huge() but after the tsd/tcache
inlines it depends on. After the malloc_dispatch refactor moved the
heaviest tcache-pulling inlines out of arena_inlines_b.h, the
remaining arena-side inlines all belong together. The merged
arena_inlines.h explicitly includes jemalloc_internal_inlines_a.h
and tcache.h (previously transitively pulled).
Convert the production source files in src/ (69 .c/.cpp) and
test/jemalloc_test.h.in to list the headers they actually use, then
delete the umbrella. Three consolidated headers (peak_event.h,
prof_sys.h, sz.h) also gain explicit transitive includes.
Every translation unit now declares what it uses. A missing include
now fails at the failing file rather than silently working because
something upstream pulled in the world.
* Replace std::__throw_bad_alloc call with standard C++
Since December of 2025, std::__throw_bad_alloc is no longer visible
through #include <new> causing jemalloc build failures with gcc 16.
As far as I can tell, all std::__throw_bad_alloc did was arrange to
raise a std::bad_alloc exception if exceptions are enabled. I am not
sure whether its usage was truly meaningful in jemalloc since the call
is wrapped in a try catch and any usage of try catch is considered an
error when compiling with -fno-exceptions on gcc, at least.
This change adds a check to configure.ac that determines whether
exceptions are enabled by compiling a simple try catch that raises a
std::bad_alloc exception. If that test succeeds, the macro
JEMALLOC_HAVE_CXX_EXCEPTIONS is defined, and jemalloc will raise an
exception. Otherwise, we call std::terminate() to abort.
This was tested on FreeBSD with the gcc16 port with and without exceptions
enabled.
* Replace std::set_new_handler calls with std::get_new_handler
Previously, std::set_new_handler was used as a workaround for
compilers with only partial support for C++11. Now that C++14 is a
requirement to enable C++ support, we can assume std::get_new_handler
is available.
- `-Wmissing-prototypes` and `-Wmissing-variable-declarations` are
helpful for finding dead code and/or things that should be `static`
but aren't marked as such.
- `-Wunused-macros` is of similar utility, but for identifying dead macros.
- `-Wunreachable-code` and `-Wunreachable-code-aggressive` do exactly
what they say: flag unreachable code.
Fix or suppress the remaining warnings generated by static analysis.
This is a necessary step before we can incorporate static analysis into
CI. Where possible, I've preferred to modify the code itself instead of
just disabling the warning with a magic comment, so that if we decide to
use different static analysis tools in the future we will be covered
against them raising similar warnings.
Summary:
Add support for C++17 over-aligned allocation:
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2016/p0035r4.html
Supporting all 10 operators means we avoid thunking thru libstdc++-v3/libsupc++ and just call jemalloc directly.
It's also worth noting that there is now an aligned *and sized* operator delete:
```
void operator delete(void* ptr, std::size_t size, std::align_val_t al) noexcept;
```
If JeMalloc did not provide this, the default implementation would ignore the size parameter entirely:
https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/blob/master/libstdc%2B%2B-v3/libsupc%2B%2B/del_opsa.cc#L30-L33
(I must also update ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx.m4 to a newer version with C++17 support.)
Test Plan:
Wrote a simple test that allocates and then deletes an over-aligned type:
```
struct alignas(32) Foo {};
Foo *f;
int main()
{
f = new Foo;
delete f;
}
```
Before this change, both new and delete go thru PLT, and we end up calling regular old free:
```
(gdb) disassemble
Dump of assembler code for function main():
...
0x00000000004029b7 <+55>: call 0x4022d0 <_ZnwmSt11align_val_t@plt>
...
0x00000000004029d5 <+85>: call 0x4022e0 <_ZdlPvmSt11align_val_t@plt>
...
(gdb) s
free (ptr=0x7ffff6408020) at /home/engshare/third-party2/jemalloc/master/src/jemalloc.git-trunk/src/jemalloc.c:2842
2842 if (!free_fastpath(ptr, 0, false)) {
```
After this change, we directly call new/delete and ultimately call sdallocx:
```
(gdb) disassemble
Dump of assembler code for function main():
...
0x0000000000402b77 <+55>: call 0x496ca0 <operator new(unsigned long, std::align_val_t)>
...
0x0000000000402b95 <+85>: call 0x496e60 <operator delete(void*, unsigned long, std::align_val_t)>
...
(gdb) s
116 je_sdallocx_noflags(ptr, size);
```
Summary: sdallocx is checking a flag that will never be set (at least in the provided C++ destructor implementation). This branch will probably only rarely be mispredicted however it removes two instructions in sdallocx and one at the callsite (to zero out flags).
This is a biggy. jemalloc_internal.h has been doing multiple jobs for a while
now:
- The source of system-wide definitions.
- The catch-all include file.
- The module header file for jemalloc.c
This commit splits up this functionality. The system-wide definitions
responsibility has moved to jemalloc_preamble.h. The catch-all include file is
now jemalloc_internal_includes.h. The module headers for jemalloc.c are now in
jemalloc_internal_[externs|inlines|types].h, just as they are for the other
modules.
Adds cpp bindings for jemalloc, along with necessary autoconf settings.
This is mostly to add sized deallocation support, which can't be added
from C directly. Sized deallocation is ~10% microbench improvement.
* Import ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx.m4 from the autoconf repo, seems like the
easiest way to get c++14 detection.
* Adds various other changes, like CXXFLAGS, to configure.ac.
* Adds new rules to Makefile.in for src/jemalloc-cpp.cpp, and a basic
unittest.
* Both new and delete are overridden, to ensure jemalloc is used for
both.
* TODO future enhancement of avoiding extra PLT thunks for new and
delete - sdallocx and malloc are publicly exported jemalloc symbols,
using an alias would link them directly. Unfortunately, was having
trouble getting it to play nice with jemalloc's namespace support.
Testing:
Tested gcc 4.8, gcc 5, gcc 5.2, clang 4.0. Only gcc >= 5 has sized
deallocation support, verified that the rest build correctly.
Tested mac osx and Centos.
Tested --with-jemalloc-prefix and --without-export.
This resolves#202.
