Requests of * a particular size are serviced from memory pools of 4K (one VMM page). * Pools are fragmented on demand and contain free lists of blocks of one * particular size class.

The main drawback of * simple segregated storage is that we might end up with lot of reserved * memory for the different free lists, which degenerate in time. To avoid * this, we partition each free list in pools and we share dynamically the * reserved space between all free lists.

This is involved. For an index i, usedpools[i+i] is the header for a list of all partially used pools holding small blocks with "size class idx" i. So usedpools[0] corresponds to blocks of size 8, usedpools[2] to blocks of size 16, and so on: index 2*i <-> blocks of size (i+1)<<ALIGNMENT_SHIFT. Pools are carved off an arena's highwater mark (an arena_object's pool_address member) as needed. Once carved off, a pool is in one of three states forever after: used == partially used, neither empty nor full At least one block in the pool is currently allocated, and at least one block in the pool is not currently allocated (note this implies a pool has room for at least two blocks). This is a pool's initial state, as a pool is created only when malloc needs space. The pool holds blocks of a fixed size, and is in the circular list headed at usedpools[i] (see above). It's linked to the other used pools of the same size class via the pool_header's nextpool and prevpool members. If all but one block is currently allocated, a malloc can cause a transition to the full state. If all but one block is not currently allocated, a free can cause a transition to the empty state. full == all the pool's blocks are currently allocated On transition to full, a pool is unlinked from its usedpools[] list. It's not linked to from anything then anymore, and its nextpool and prevpool members are meaningless until it transitions back to used. A free of a block in a full pool puts the pool back in the used state. Then it's linked in at the front of the appropriate usedpools[] list, so that the next allocation for its size class will reuse the freed block. empty == all the pool's blocks are currently available for allocation On transition to empty, a pool is unlinked from its usedpools[] list, and linked to the front of its arena_object's singly-linked freepools list, via its nextpool member. The prevpool member has no meaning in this case. Empty pools have no inherent size class: the next time a malloc finds an empty list in usedpools[], it takes the first pool off of freepools. If the size class needed happens to be the same as the size class the pool last had, some pool initialization can be skipped. Block Management Blocks within pools are again carved out as needed. pool->freeblock points to the start of a singly-linked list of free blocks within the pool. When a block is freed, it's inserted at the front of its pool's freeblock list. Note that the available blocks in a pool are *not* linked all together when a pool is initialized. Instead only "the first two" (lowest addresses) blocks are set up, returning the first such block, and setting pool->freeblock to a one-block list holding the second such block. This is consistent with that pymalloc strives at all levels (arena, pool, and block) never to touch a piece of memory until it's actually needed. So long as a pool is in the used state, we're certain there *is* a block available for allocating, and pool->freeblock is not NULL. If pool->freeblock points to the end of the free list before we've carved the entire pool into blocks, that means we simply haven't yet gotten to one of the higher-address blocks. The offset from the pool_header to the start of "the next" virgin block is stored in the pool_header nextoffset member, and the largest value of nextoffset that makes sense is stored in the maxnextoffset member when a pool is initialized. All the blocks in a pool have been passed out at least once when and only when nextoffset > maxnextoffset. Major obscurity: While the usedpools vector is declared to have poolp entries, it doesn't really. It really contains two pointers per (conceptual) poolp entry, the nextpool and prevpool members of a pool_header. The excruciating initialization code below fools C so that usedpool[i+i] "acts like" a genuine poolp, but only so long as you only reference its nextpool and prevpool members. The "- 2*sizeof(block *)" gibberish is compensating for that a pool_header's nextpool and prevpool members immediately follow a pool_header's first two members: union { block *_padding; uint count; } ref; block *freeblock; each of which consume sizeof(block *) bytes. So what usedpools[i+i] really contains is a fudged-up pointer p such that *if* C believes it's a poolp pointer, then p->nextpool and p->prevpool are both p (meaning that the headed circular list is empty). It's unclear why the usedpools setup is so convoluted. It could be to minimize the amount of cache required to hold this heavily-referenced table (which only *needs* the two interpool pointer members of a pool_header). OTOH, referencing code has to remember to "double the index" and doing so isn't free, usedpools[0] isn't a strictly legal pointer, and we're crucially relying on that C doesn't insert any padding anywhere in a pool_header at or before the prevpool member. **************************************************************************** */ #define PTA(x) ((poolp )((uchar *)&(usedpools[2*(x)]) - 2*sizeof(block *))) #define PT(x) PTA(x), PTA(x) static poolp usedpools[2 * ((NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES + 7) / 8) * 8] = { PT(0), PT(1), PT(2), PT(3), PT(4), PT(5), PT(6), PT(7) #if NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 8 , PT(8), PT(9), PT(10), PT(11), PT(12), PT(13), PT(14), PT(15) #if NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 16 , PT(16), PT(17), PT(18), PT(19), PT(20), PT(21), PT(22), PT(23) #if NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 24 , PT(24), PT(25), PT(26), PT(27), PT(28), PT(29), PT(30), PT(31) #if NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 32 , PT(32), PT(33), PT(34), PT(35), PT(36), PT(37), PT(38), PT(39) #if NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 40 , PT(40), PT(41), PT(42), PT(43), PT(44), PT(45), PT(46), PT(47) #if NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 48 , PT(48), PT(49), PT(50), PT(51), PT(52), PT(53), PT(54), PT(55) #if NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 56 , PT(56), PT(57), PT(58), PT(59), PT(60), PT(61), PT(62), PT(63) #if NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 64 #error "NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES should be less than 64" #endif /* NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 64 */ #endif /* NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 56 */ #endif /* NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 48 */ #endif /* NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 40 */ #endif /* NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 32 */ #endif /* NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 24 */ #endif /* NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 16 */ #endif /* NB_SMALL_SIZE_CLASSES > 8 */ }; /*========================================================================== Arena management. `arenas` is a vector of arena_objects. It contains maxarenas entries, some of which may not be currently used (== they're arena_objects that aren't currently associated with an allocated arena). Note that arenas proper are separately malloc'ed. Prior to Python 2.5, arenas were never free()'ed. Starting with Python 2.5, we do try to free() arenas, and use some mild heuristic strategies to increase the likelihood that arenas eventually can be freed. unused_arena_objects This is a singly-linked list of the arena_objects that are currently not being used (no arena is associated with them). Objects are taken off the head of the list in new_arena(), and are pushed on the head of the list in PyObject_Free() when the arena is empty.

These pools are either waiting to be reused, or have not been used before. The list is sorted to have the most- allocated arenas first (ascending order based on the nfreepools member). This means that the next allocation will come from a heavily used arena, which gives the nearly empty arenas a chance to be returned to the system.

POOL must be the pool address associated with P, i.e., POOL = POOL_ADDR(P) (the caller is asked to compute this because the macro expands POOL more than once, and for efficiency it's best for the caller to assign POOL_ADDR(P) to a variable and pass the latter to the macro; because Py_ADDRESS_IN_RANGE is called on every alloc/realloc/free, micro-efficiency is important here). Tricky: Let B be the arena base address associated with the pool, B = arenas[(POOL)->arenaindex].address. Then P belongs to the arena if and only if B <= P < B + ARENA_SIZE Subtracting B throughout, this is true iff 0 <= P-B < ARENA_SIZE By using unsigned arithmetic, the "0 <=" half of the test can be skipped. Obscure: A PyMem "free memory" function can call the pymalloc free or realloc before the first arena has been allocated. `arenas` is still NULL in that case. We're relying on that maxarenas is also 0 in that case, so that (POOL)->arenaindex < maxarenas must be false, saving us from trying to index into a NULL arenas. Details: given P and POOL, the arena_object corresponding to P is AO = arenas[(POOL)->arenaindex]. Suppose obmalloc controls P. Then (barring wild stores, etc), POOL is the correct address of P's pool, AO.address is the correct base address of the pool's arena, and P must be within ARENA_SIZE of AO.address. In addition, AO.address is not 0 (no arena can start at address 0 (NULL)). Therefore Py_ADDRESS_IN_RANGE correctly reports that obmalloc controls P. Now suppose obmalloc does not control P (e.g., P was obtained via a direct call to the system malloc() or realloc()). (POOL)->arenaindex may be anything in this case -- it may even be uninitialized trash. If the trash arenaindex is >= maxarenas, the macro correctly concludes at once that obmalloc doesn't control P. Else arenaindex is < maxarena, and AO is read up. If AO corresponds to an allocated arena, obmalloc controls all the memory in slice AO.address : AO.address+ARENA_SIZE. By case assumption, P is not controlled by obmalloc, so P doesn't lie in that slice, so the macro correctly reports that P is not controlled by obmalloc. Finally, if P is not controlled by obmalloc and AO corresponds to an unused arena_object (one not currently associated with an allocated arena), AO.address is 0, and the second test in the macro reduces to: P < ARENA_SIZE If P >= ARENA_SIZE (extremely likely), the macro again correctly concludes that P is not controlled by obmalloc. However, if P < ARENA_SIZE, this part of the test still passes, and the third clause (AO.address != 0) is necessary to get the correct result: AO.address is 0 in this case, so the macro correctly reports that P is not controlled by obmalloc (despite that P lies in slice AO.address : AO.address + ARENA_SIZE). Note: The third (AO.address != 0) clause was added in Python 2.5. Before 2.5, arenas were never free()'ed, and an arenaindex < maxarena always corresponded to a currently-allocated arena, so the "P is not controlled by obmalloc, AO corresponds to an unused arena_object, and P < ARENA_SIZE" case was impossible. Note that the logic is excruciating, and reading up possibly uninitialized memory when P is not controlled by obmalloc (to get at (POOL)->arenaindex) creates problems for some memory debuggers. The overwhelming advantage is that this test determines whether an arbitrary address is controlled by obmalloc in a small constant time, independent of the number of arenas obmalloc controls. Since this test is needed at every entry point, it's extremely desirable that it be this fast. Since Py_ADDRESS_IN_RANGE may be reading from memory which was not allocated by Python, it is important that (POOL)->arenaindex is read only once, as another thread may be concurrently modifying the value without holding the GIL. To accomplish this, the arenaindex_temp variable is used to store (POOL)->arenaindex for the duration of the Py_ADDRESS_IN_RANGE macro's execution. The caller of the macro is responsible for declaring this variable. */ #define Py_ADDRESS_IN_RANGE(P, POOL) \ ((arenaindex_temp = (POOL)->arenaindex) < maxarenas && \ (uptr)(P) - arenas[arenaindex_temp].address < (uptr)ARENA_SIZE && \ arenas[arenaindex_temp].address != 0) /* This is only useful when running memory debuggers such as * Purify or Valgrind.
