In a summary, test on `strerror_r` can fail due to reasons other
than `strerror_r` itself, so add an additional test to determine
the failure is expected.

Add opt.process_madvise_max_batch which determines if process_madvise is enabled
(non-zero) and the max # of regions in each batch. Added another limiting
factor which is the space to reserve on stack, which results in the max batch of
128.
Converting size to usize is what jemalloc has been done by ceiling
size to the closest size class. However, this causes lots of memory
wastes with HPA enabled. This commit changes how usize is calculated so
that the gap between two contiguous usize is no larger than a page.
Specifically, this commit includes the following changes:
1. Adding a build-time config option (--enable-limit-usize-gap) and a
runtime one (limit_usize_gap) to guard the changes.
When build-time
config is enabled, some minor CPU overhead is expected because usize
will be stored and accessed apart from index. When runtime option is
also enabled (it can only be enabled with the build-time config
enabled). a new usize calculation approach wil be employed. This new
calculation will ceil size to the closest multiple of PAGE for all sizes
larger than USIZE_GROW_SLOW_THRESHOLD instead of using the size classes.
Note when the build-time config is enabled, the runtime option is
default on.
2. Prepare tcache for size to grow by PAGE over GROUP*PAGE.
To prepare for the upcoming changes where size class grows by PAGE when
larger than NGROUP * PAGE, disable the tcache when it is larger than 2 *
NGROUP * PAGE. The threshold for tcache is set higher to prevent perf
regression as much as possible while usizes between NGROUP * PAGE and 2 *
NGROUP * PAGE happen to grow by PAGE.
3. Prepare pac and hpa psset for size to grow by PAGE over GROUP*PAGE
For PAC, to avoid having too many bins, arena bins still have the same
layout. This means some extra search is needed for a page-level request that
is not aligned with the orginal size class: it should also search the heap
before the current index since the previous heap might also be able to
have some allocations satisfying it. The same changes apply to HPA's
psset.
This search relies on the enumeration of the heap because not all allocs in
the previous heap are guaranteed to satisfy the request. To balance the
memory and CPU overhead, we currently enumerate at most a fixed number
of nodes before concluding none can satisfy the request during an
enumeration.
4. Add bytes counter to arena large stats.
To prepare for the upcoming usize changes, stats collected by
multiplying alive allocations and the bin size is no longer accurate.
Thus, add separate counters to record the bytes malloced and dalloced.
5. Change structs use when freeing to avoid using index2size for large sizes.
- Change the definition of emap_alloc_ctx_t
- Change the read of both from edata_t.
- Change the assignment and usage of emap_alloc_ctx_t.
- Change other callsites of index2size.
Note for the changes in the data structure, i.e., emap_alloc_ctx_t,
will be used when the build-time config (--enable-limit-usize-gap) is
enabled but they will store the same value as index2size(szind) if the
runtime option (opt_limit_usize_gap) is not enabled.
6. Adapt hpa to the usize changes.
Change the settings in sec to limit is usage for sizes larger than
USIZE_GROW_SLOW_THRESHOLD and modify corresponding tests.
7. Modify usize calculation and corresponding tests.
Change the sz_s2u_compute. Note sz_index2size is not always safe now
while sz_size2index still works as expected.
This adds a new autoconf flag, --disable-user-config, which disables
reading the configuration from /etc/malloc.conf or the MALLOC_CONF
environment variable. This can be useful when integrating jemalloc in a
binary that internally handles all aspects of the configuration and
shouldn't be impacted by ambient change in the environment.
This commit allows to enable sanitizers with autoconf options, instead
of modifying `CFLAGS`, `CXXFLAGS` and `LDFLAGS` directly.
* `--enable-tsan` option to enable Thread Sanitizer.
* `--enable-ubsan` option to enable Undefined Behaviour Sanitizer.
End goal is to speedup development by finding problems quickly, early
and easier. Eventually, when all current issues will be fixed, we can
enable sanitizers in CI. Fortunately, there are not a lot of problems we
need to fix.
Address Sanitizer is a bit controversial, because it replaces memory
allocator, so we decided to left it out for a while.
Below are couple of examples of how tests look like under different
sanitizers at the moment.

The gettid() function is available on Linux in glibc only since version
2.30. There are supported distributions that still use older glibc
version. Thus add a configure check if the gettid() function is
available and extend the check in src/prof_stack_range.c so it's skipped
also when gettid() isn't available.

Linux 6.1 introduced `MADV_COLLAPSE` flag to perform a best-effort
synchronous collapse of the native pages mapped by the memory range into
transparent huge pages.
Synchronous hugification might be beneficial for at least two reasons:
we are not relying on khugepaged anymore and get an instant feedback if
range wasn't hugified.
If `hpa_hugify_sync` option is on, we'll try to perform synchronously
collapse and if it wasn't successful, we'll fallback to asynchronous
behaviour.
On MSVC, log is an intrinsic that doesn't require libm. However,
AC_SEARCH_LIBS does not successfully detect this, as it will try to
compile a program using the wrong signature for log. Newer versions of
MSVC CL detects this and rejects the program with the following
messages:
conftest.c(40): warning C4391: 'char log()': incorrect return type for intrinsic function, expected 'double'
conftest.c(44): error C2168: 'log': too few actual parameters for intrinsic function
Since log is always available on MSVC (it's been around since the dawn
of time), we simply always assume it's there if MSVC is detected.
In many environments, the fallback `sbrk(2)` allocation path is never
used even if the system supports the syscall; if you're at the point
where `mmap(2)` is failing, `sbrk(2)` is unlikely to succeed. Without
changing the default, I've added the ability to disable the usage of DSS
altogether, so that you do not need to pay for the additional code size
and handful of extra runtime branches in such environments.
[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.
Adding `-Wstrict-prototypes` to the default `CFLAGS` in PR #2473 had the
non-obvious side-effect of breaking configure-time feature detection,
because the [test-program `autoconf` generates for feature
detection](https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.67/html_node/Generating-Sources.html#:~:text=main%20())
defines `main` as:
```c
int main()
```
Which causes all feature checks to fail, since this triggers
`-Wstrict-prototypes` and the feature checks use `-Werror`.
Resolved by only adding `-Wstrict-prototypes` to
`EXTRA_{CFLAGS,CXXFLAGS}` in CI, since these flags are not used during
feature detection and we control which compiler is used.
Additionally, added a GitHub Action to ensure no more trailing
whitespace will creep in again in the future.
I'm excluding Markdown files from this check, since trailing whitespace
is significant there, and also excluding `build-aux/install-sh` because
there is significant trailing whitespace on the line that sets
`defaultIFS`.
Allows the use of getenv() rather than secure_getenv() to read MALLOC_CONF.
This helps in situations where hosts are under full control, and setting
MALLOC_CONF is needed while also setuid. Disabled by default.
The option makes jemalloc use prctl with PR_SET_VMA to tag memory mappings with
"jemalloc_pg" or "jemalloc_pg_overcommit". This allows to easily identify
jemalloc's mappings in /proc/<pid>/maps. PR_SET_VMA is only available in Linux
5.17 and above.
Before this commit, in case FreeBSD libc jemalloc was overridden by another
jemalloc, proper thread shutdown callback was involved only for the overriding
jemalloc. A call to _malloc_thread_cleanup from libthr would be redirected to
user jemalloc, leaving data about dead threads hanging in system jemalloc. This
change tackles the issue in two ways. First, for current and old system
jemallocs, which we can not modify, the overriding jemalloc would locate and
invoke system cleanup routine. For upcoming jemalloc integrations, the cleanup
registering function will also be redirected to user jemalloc, which means that
system jemalloc's cleanup routine will be registered in user's jemalloc and a
single call to _malloc_thread_cleanup will be sufficient to invoke both
callbacks.
To avoid potential issues with removing unintended files after 'make
uninstall', spaces are no longer allowed in install suffix. It's worth
mentioning, that with GNU Make on Linux spaces in install suffix didn't
work anyway, leading to errors in the Makefile. But being verbose
about this restriction makes it more transparent for the developers.
On deallocation, sampled pointers (specially aligned) get junked and stashed
into tcache (to prevent immediate reuse). The expected behavior is to have
read-after-free corrupted and stopped by the junk-filling, while
write-after-free is checked when flushing the stashed pointers.
Adding guarded extents, which are regular extents surrounded by guard pages
(mprotected). To reduce syscalls, small guarded extents are cached as a
separate eset in ecache, and decay through the dirty / muzzy / retained pipeline
as usual.
Prior to the change you could specify --enable-prof-libunwind without
--enable-prof which would do effectively nothing. This was confusing as I
expected --enable-prof-libunwind to act like --enable-prof, but use libunwind.
When clang sees an unknown warning option, unlike gcc it doesn't fail the build
with error. It issues a warning. Hence JE_CFLAGS_ADD with warning options that
didnt't exist in clang would still mark those options as available. This led to
several warnings when built with clang or "gcc" on OSX. This change fixes those
warnings by simply making clang fail builds with non-existent warning options.
