grep/pcre2: actually make pcre2 use custom allocator
Continue work started in513f2b0bbd
(grep: make PCRE2 aware of custom allocator, 2019-10-16) and make PCREv2 use our pcre2_{malloc,free}(). functions for allocation. We'll now use it for all PCREv2 allocations. The reason513f2b0bbd
worked as a bugfix for the USE_NED_ALLOCATOR issue is because it targeted the allocation freed via free(), as opposed to by a pcre2_*free() function. I.e. the pcre2_maketables() and pcre2_maketables_free() pair. For most of the rest we continued allocating with stock malloc() inside PCREv2 itself, but didn't segfault because we'd use its corresponding free(). In a preceding commit of mine I changed the free() to pcre2_maketables_free() on versions of PCREv2 10.34 and newer. So as far as fixing the segfault goes we could revert513f2b0bbd
. But then we wouldn't use the desired allocator, let's just use it instead. Before this patch we'd on e.g.: grep --threads=1 -iP æ.*var.*xyz Only use pcre2_{malloc,free}() for 2 malloc() calls and 2 corresponding free() calls. Now it's 12 calls to each. This can be observed with the GREP_PCRE2_DEBUG_MALLOC debug mode. Reading the history of how this bug got introduced it wasn't present in Johannes's original patch[1] to fix the issue. My reading of that thread is that the approach the follow-up patches to Johannes's original pursued were based on misunderstanding of how the PCREv2 API works. In particular this part of [2]: "most of the time (like when using UTF-8) the chartable (and therefore the global context) is not needed (even when using alternate allocators)" That's simply not how PCREv2 memory allocation works. It's easy to see how the misunderstanding came about. It's because (as noted above) the issue was noticed because of our use of free() in our own grep.c for freeing the memory allocated by pcre2_maketables(). Thus the misunderstanding that PCREv2's compile context is something only needed for pcre2_maketables(), and e.g. an aborted earlier attempt[3] to only set it up when we ourselves called pcre2_maketables(). That's not what PCREv2's compile context is. To quote PCREv2's documentation: "This context just contains pointers to (and data for) external memory management functions that are called from several places in the PCRE2 library." Thus the failed attempts to go down the route of only creating the general context in cases where we ourselves call pcre2_maketables(), before finally settling on the approach513f2b0bbd
took of always creating it, but then mostly not using it. Instead we should always create it, and then pass the general context to those functions that accept it, so that they'll consistently use our preferred memory allocation functions. 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/3397e6797f872aedd18c6d795f4976e1c579514b.1565005867.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com/ 2. https://lore.kernel.org/git/CAPUEsphMh_ZqcH3M7PXC9jHTfEdQN3mhTAK2JDkdvKBp53YBoA@mail.gmail.com/ 3. https://lore.kernel.org/git/20190806085014.47776-3-carenas@gmail.com/ Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
