Also add a check that the test programs are under about ten megabytes
(they're currently around one on platforms that put inline statics full
of zeroes into BSS and around 270 on ones that don't).
Fixes#339
* Add concept of natural alignment to tests.
snmalloc naturally aligns blocks very heavily, so that
the largest power-of-two in the rounded size is the alignment.
This checks that in the test, and provides a method for
finding the natural alignment of a block.
* Improve USE_MALLOC to provide alignment
snmalloc provides a lot of alginment guarantees. This ensures that when
we pass through to the system allocator we still get those alignment
guarantees.
The commit also fixes the tests to work with USE_MALLOC, and builds a
set of unit tests for ctest to check behaviour.
* Use C++17 inline statics
This leads to better codegen in GCC, and fixes some linking issues in OE.
* Detect GCC and OE combination and fall-back to lock based ABA.
* clangformat
* Defensive code for alloc/dealloc during TLS teardown
If an allocation or deallocation occurs during TLS teardown, then it is
possible for a new allocator to be created and then this is leaked. On
the mimalloc-bench mstressN benchmark this was observed leading to a
large memory leak.
This fix, detects if we are in the TLS teardown phase, and if so,
the calls to alloc or dealloc must return the allocator once they have
perform the specific operation.
Uses a separate variable to represent if a thread_local's destructor has
run already. This is used to detect thread teardown to put the
allocator into a special slow path to avoid leaks.
* Added some printing first operation to track progress
* Improve error messages on posix
Flush errors, print assert details, and present stack traces.
* Detect incorrect use of pool.
* Clang format.
* Replace broken LL/SC implementation
LL/SC implementation was broken, this replaces it with
a locking implementation. Changes the API to support LL/SC
for future implementation on ARM.
* Improve TLS teardown.
* Make std::function fully inlined.
* Factor out PALLinux stack trace.
* Add checks for leaking allocators.
* Add release build of Windows Clang
The bootstrapping allocator needs to perform a memcpy to bypass the
removed move constructors on std::atomic. This is safe as there is no
concurrency at this point, but GCC is unhappy with this.
This commit moves CI to GCC8 and disables this warning for that line.
Fixes a few places where Clang complains about Windows specific code,
and also uses macros supported by Clang on Windows. A few places
separating platform and compiler specific code, as MSVC and WIN32 were
used interchangably previously.
HEADER_GLOBAL was using non-standard attributes to achieve what C++17
now permits with a keyword. Use the standard formulation.
Update the README to note that gcc is still not recommended, but because
of its poor codegen for 128-bit atomic compare and exchange, rather than
because it doesn't support the attribute used for HEADER_GLOBAL.
