Static tikv_jemalloc_sys::malloc_conf

pub unsafe static malloc_conf: Option<&'static c_char>

Compile-time string of configuration options.

Once, when the first call is made to one of the memory allocation routines, the allocator initializes its internals based in part on various options that can be specified at compile- or run-time.

The string specified via --with-malloc-conf, the string pointed to by the global variable malloc_conf, the “name” of the file referenced by the symbolic link named /etc/malloc.conf, and the value of the environment variable MALLOC_CONF, will be interpreted, in that order, from left to right as options. Note that malloc_conf may be read before main() is entered, so the declaration of malloc_conf should specify an initializer that contains the final value to be read by jemalloc.

--with-malloc-conf and malloc_conf are compile-time mechanisms, whereas /etc/malloc.conf and MALLOC_CONF can be safely set any time prior to program invocation.

An options string is a comma-separated list of option:value pairs. There is one key corresponding to each opt.* mallctl (see the MALLCTL NAMESPACE section for options documentation). For example, abort:true,narenas:1 sets the opt.abort and opt.narenas options. Some options have boolean values (true/false), others have integer values (base 8, 10, or 16, depending on prefix), and yet others have raw string values.
