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.
By force-inlining everything that would otherwise be a macro, we get the same
effect (it's not clear in the first place that this is actually a good idea, but
it avoids making any changes to the existing performance profile).
This makes the code more maintainable (in anticipation of subsequent changes),
as well as making performance profiles and debug info more readable (we get
"real" line numbers, instead of making everything point to the macro definition
of all associated functions).
These functions select the easiest-to-remove element in the heap, which
is either the most recently inserted aux list element or the root. If
no calls are made to first() or remove_first(), the behavior (and time
complexity) is the same as for a LIFO queue.
Refactor ph to support configurable comparison functions. Use a cpp
macro code generation form equivalent to the rb macros so that pairing
heaps can be used for both run heaps and chunk heaps.
Remove per node parent pointers, and instead use leftmost siblings' prev
pointers to track parents.
Fix multi-pass sibling merging to iterate over intermediate results
using a FIFO, rather than a LIFO. Use this fixed sibling merging
implementation for both merge phases of the auxiliary twopass algorithm
(first merging the aux list, then replacing the root with its merged
children). This fixes both degenerate merge behavior and the potential
for deep recursion.
This regression was introduced by
6bafa6678f (Pairing heap).
This resolves#371.
