Jon Coppeard 3291e3d4b5 Bug 1395509 - Add a separate byte count for malloc allocations r=sfink
Previously I rolled the malloc byte count into a total byte count for each zone but this may adversely affect GC scheduling (e.g. by triggering more non-incremental GCs because allocation volumes appear higher with this change). So that we can land this machinery without disturbing benchmarks too much, this patch splits out the new malloc memory accounting into a separate counter and uses the maxMallocBytes setting as the threshold (default value is 128MB vs 30MB for the GC heap threshold) and a growth factor of 2. This should make the behaviour closer to the original behaviour for now. We can go back and adjust the parameters later to obtain the desired behaviour.

* Weak pointers and garbage collection
*
* Weak pointers are by their nature not marked as part of garbage collection,
* but they may need to be updated in two cases after a GC:
*
* 1) Their referent was found not to be live and is about to be finalized
* 2) Their referent has been moved by a compacting GC
*
* To handle this, any part of the system that maintain weak pointers to
* JavaScript GC things must register a callback with
* JS_(Add,Remove)WeakPointer{ZoneGroup,Compartment}Callback(). This callback
* must then call JS_UpdateWeakPointerAfterGC() on all weak pointers it knows
* about.
*
* Since sweeping is incremental, we have several callbacks to avoid repeatedly
* having to visit all embedder structures. The WeakPointerZonesCallback is
* called once for each strongly connected group of zones, whereas the
* WeakPointerCompartmentCallback is called once for each compartment that is
* visited while sweeping. Structures that cannot contain references in more
* than one compartment should sweep the relevant per-compartment structures
* using the latter callback to minimizer per-slice overhead.
*
* The argument to JS_UpdateWeakPointerAfterGC() is an in-out param. If the
* referent is about to be finalized the pointer will be set to null. If the
* referent has been moved then the pointer will be updated to point to the new
* location.
*
* Callers of this method are responsible for updating any state that is
* dependent on the object's address. For example, if the object's address is
* used as a key in a hashtable, then the object must be removed and
* re-inserted with the correct hash.
