slab_private: Use malloc_etc/free_etc instead of the block allocator.

Under normal circumstances (slab allocator) this change is a no-op
because malloc_etc just calls block_alloc unconditionally. Under
the debug or guarded heap, this makes allocations go through that
instead.

white space cleanup

mmlr + bonefish:
* Add optional stack trace capturing for slab memory manager tracing.
* Add allocation tracking for the slab allocator (enabled via
SLAB_ALLOCATION_TRACKING). The allocation tracking requires tracing
with stack traces to be enabled for object caches and/or the memory
manager.
- Add class AllocationTrackingInfo that associates an allocation with
its respective tracing entry. The structure is added to the end of
an allocation done by the memory manager. For the object caches
there's a separate array for each slab.
- Add code range markers to the slab code, so that the first caller
into the slab code can be retrieved from the stack traces.
- Add KDL command "allocations_per_caller" that lists all allocations
summarized by caller.
* Move debug definitions from slab_private.h to slab_debug.h.

bonefish+mmlr:
* Introduce "paranoid" malloc/free into the slab allocator (initializing
allocated memory to 0xcc and setting freed memory to 0xdeadbeef).
* Allow for optional stack traces for slab object cache tracing.


git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@43046 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96

* Added ObjectCache::alignment, the object alignment and used the alignment for
incrementing the cache color cycle. Using the fixed value (8) would
potentially misalign the object again.
* Don't use CACHE_ALIGN_ON_SIZE for object caches any longer -- we have the
alignment parameter anyway (the flag is still used for the MemoryManager,
though).
* ObjectCache::InitSlab(): Slab coloring *was* done when CACHE_ALIGN_ON_SIZE
was given, i.e. exactly the wrong way around. Also the cache_color_cycle
computation was weird -- color 0 was used twice in a row.
* The "slabs" and "slab_cache" KDL commands also print the alignment, now.



git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@37534 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96

* Fixed maintaining the object depot's free magazine count (it's not really used
though).
* Added/improved some KDL commands to make the slab easier to work with from
KDL.

MemoryManager:
* Added support to do larger raw allocations (up to one large chunk (128 pages))
in the slab areas. For an even larger allocation an area is created (haven't
seen that happen yet, though).
* Added kernel tracing (SLAB_MEMORY_MANAGER_TRACING).
* _FreeArea(): Copy and paste bug: The meta chunks of the to be freed area
would be added to the free lists instead of being removed from them. This
would corrupt the lists and also lead to all kinds of misuse of meta chunks.

object caches:
* Implemented CACHE_ALIGN_ON_SIZE. It is no longer set for all small object
caches, but the block allocator sets it on all power of two size caches.
* object_cache_reserve_internal(): Detect recursion and don't wait in such a
case. The function could deadlock itself, since
HashedObjectCache::CreateSlab() does allocate memory, thus potentially
reentering.
* object_cache_low_memory():
- I missed some returns when reworking that one in r35254, so the function
might stop early and also leave the cache in maintenance mode, which would
cause it to be ignored by object cache resizer and low memory handler from
that point on.
- Since ReturnSlab() potentially unlocks, the conditions weren't quite correct
and too many slabs could be freed.
- Simplified things a bit.
* object_cache_alloc(): Since object_cache_reserve_internal() does potentially
unlock the cache, the situation might have changed and their might not be an
empty slab available, but a partial one. The function would crash.
* Renamed the object cache tracing variable to SLAB_OBJECT_CACHE_TRACING.
* Renamed debugger command "cache_info" to "slab_cache" to avoid confusion with
the VMCache commands.
* ObjectCache::usage was not maintained anymore since I introduced the
MemoryManager. object_cache_get_usage() would thus always return 0 and the
block cache would not be considered cached memory. This was only of
informational relevance, though.

slab allocator misc.:
* Disable the object depots of block allocator caches for object sizes > 2 KB.
Allocations of those sizes aren't so common that the object depots yield any
benefit.
* The slab allocator is now fully self-sufficient. It allocates its bootstrap
memory from the MemoryManager, and the hash tables for HashedObjectCaches use
the block allocator instead of the heap, now.
* Added option to use the slab allocator for malloc() and friends
(USE_SLAB_ALLOCATOR_FOR_MALLOC). Currently disabled. Works in principle and
has virtually no lock contention. Handling for low memory situations is yet
missing, though.
* Improved the output of some debugger commands.

MemoryManager:
* Does now keep one or two empty areas around, so that even in case of
CACHE_DONT_LOCK_KERNEL_SPACE memory can be provided as long as pages are
available. The object cache maintainer thread is used to asynchronously
allocate/delete the free areas.
* Added new debugger commands "slab_meta_chunk[s]" and improved the existing
ones.
* Moved Area::chunks to MetaChunk.
* Removed unused _AllocationArea() "chunkSize" parameter.
* Fixed serious bug in _FreeChunk(): Empty meta chunks were not removed from
the partial chunk lists and could thus be used twice.

slab allocator:
* Implemented a more elaborated raw memory allocation backend (MemoryManager).
We allocate 8 MB areas whose pages we allocate and map when needed. An area is
divided into equally-sized chunks which form the basic units of allocation. We
have areas with three possible chunk sizes (small, medium, large), which is
basically what the ObjectCache implementations were using anyway.
* Added "uint32 flags" parameter to several of the slab allocator's object
cache and object depot functions. E.g. object_depot_store() potentially wants
to allocate memory for a magazine. But also in pure freeing functions it
might eventually become useful to have those flags, since they could end up
deleting an area, which might not be allowable in all situations. We should
introduce specific flags to indicate that.
* Reworked the block allocator. Since the MemoryManager allocates block-aligned
areas, maintains a hash table for lookup, and maps chunks to object caches,
we can quickly find out which object cache a to be freed allocation belongs
to and thus don't need the boundary tags anymore.
* Reworked the slab boot strap process. We allocate from the initial area only
when really necessary, i.e. when the object cache for the respective
allocation size has not been created yet. A single page is thus sufficient.

other:
* vm_allocate_early(): Added boolean "blockAlign" parameter. If true, the
semantics is the same as for B_ANY_KERNEL_BLOCK_ADDRESS.
* Use an object cache for page mappings. This significantly reduces the
contention on the heap bin locks.

* Consequently propagate the CACHE_DONT_SLEEP flag.
* block_alloc(): Create B_FULL_LOCK area.


git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@35202 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96

* Split the slab allocator code into separate source files and C++-ified
things a bit.
* Some style cleanup.
* The object depot does now have a cookie that will be passed to the return
hook.
* Fixed object_cache_return_object_wrapper() using the new cookie.


git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@35174 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96

* Moved the object depot code to its own source file.
