5 // Memory allocator, based on tcmalloc.
6 // http://goog-perftools.sourceforge.net/doc/tcmalloc.html
8 // The main allocator works in runs of pages.
9 // Small allocation sizes (up to and including 32 kB) are
10 // rounded to one of about 100 size classes, each of which
11 // has its own free list of objects of exactly that size.
12 // Any free page of memory can be split into a set of objects
13 // of one size class, which are then managed using free list
14 // allocators.
16 // The allocator's data structures are:
18 // FixAlloc: a free-list allocator for fixed-size objects,
19 // used to manage storage used by the allocator.
20 // MHeap: the malloc heap, managed at page (4096-byte) granularity.
21 // MSpan: a run of pages managed by the MHeap.
22 // MCentral: a shared free list for a given size class.
23 // MCache: a per-thread (in Go, per-P) cache for small objects.
24 // MStats: allocation statistics.
26 // Allocating a small object proceeds up a hierarchy of caches:
28 // 1. Round the size up to one of the small size classes
29 // and look in the corresponding MCache free list.
30 // If the list is not empty, allocate an object from it.
31 // This can all be done without acquiring a lock.
33 // 2. If the MCache free list is empty, replenish it by
34 // taking a bunch of objects from the MCentral free list.
35 // Moving a bunch amortizes the cost of acquiring the MCentral lock.
37 // 3. If the MCentral free list is empty, replenish it by
38 // allocating a run of pages from the MHeap and then
39 // chopping that memory into a objects of the given size.
40 // Allocating many objects amortizes the cost of locking
41 // the heap.
43 // 4. If the MHeap is empty or has no page runs large enough,
44 // allocate a new group of pages (at least 1MB) from the
45 // operating system. Allocating a large run of pages
46 // amortizes the cost of talking to the operating system.
48 // Freeing a small object proceeds up the same hierarchy:
50 // 1. Look up the size class for the object and add it to
51 // the MCache free list.
53 // 2. If the MCache free list is too long or the MCache has
54 // too much memory, return some to the MCentral free lists.
56 // 3. If all the objects in a given span have returned to
57 // the MCentral list, return that span to the page heap.
59 // 4. If the heap has too much memory, return some to the
60 // operating system.
62 // TODO(rsc): Step 4 is not implemented.
64 // Allocating and freeing a large object uses the page heap
65 // directly, bypassing the MCache and MCentral free lists.
67 // The small objects on the MCache and MCentral free lists
68 // may or may not be zeroed. They are zeroed if and only if
69 // the second word of the object is zero. A span in the
70 // page heap is zeroed unless s->needzero is set. When a span
71 // is allocated to break into small objects, it is zeroed if needed
72 // and s->needzero is set. There are two main benefits to delaying the
73 // zeroing this way:
75 // 1. stack frames allocated from the small object lists
76 // or the page heap can avoid zeroing altogether.
77 // 2. the cost of zeroing when reusing a small object is
78 // charged to the mutator, not the garbage collector.
80 // This C code was written with an eye toward translating to Go
81 // in the future. Methods have the form Type_Method(Type *t, ...).
