*	malloc: set NON_MAIN_ARENA flag for reclaimed memalign chunk (BZ #30101)	DJ Delorie	2023-04-18	1	-4/+9
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Based on these comments in malloc.c: size field is or'ed with NON_MAIN_ARENA if the chunk was obtained from a non-main arena. This is only set immediately before handing the chunk to the user, if necessary. The NON_MAIN_ARENA flag is never set for unsorted chunks, so it does not have to be taken into account in size comparisons. When we pull a chunk off the unsorted list (or any list) we need to make sure that flag is set properly before returning the chunk. Use the rounded-up size for chunk_ok_for_memalign() Do not scan the arena for reusable chunks if there's no arena. Account for chunk overhead when determining if a chunk is a reuse candidate. mcheck interferes with memalign, so skip mcheck variants of memalign tests.

*	memalign: Support scanning for aligned chunks.	DJ Delorie	2023-03-29	1	-0/+155
	This patch adds a chunk scanning algorithm to the _int_memalign code path that reduces heap fragmentation by reusing already aligned chunks instead of always looking for chunks of larger sizes and splitting them. The tcache macros are extended to allow removing a chunk from the middle of the list. The goal is to fix the pathological use cases where heaps grow continuously in workloads that are heavy users of memalign. Note that tst-memalign-2 checks for tcache operation, which malloc-check bypasses. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
