Implement a long-standing request to support tuning the size of the emergency buffer for allocating exceptions after malloc fails, or to disable that buffer entirely. It's now possible to disable the dynamic allocation of the buffer and use a fixed-size static buffer, via --enable-libstdcxx-static-eh-pool. This is a built-time choice that is baked into libstdc++ and so affects all code linked against that build of libstdc++. The size of the pool can be set by --with-libstdcxx-eh-pool-obj-count=N which is measured in units of sizeof(void*) not bytes. A given exception type such as std::system_error depends on the target, so giving a size in bytes wouldn't be portable across 16/32/64-bit targets. When libstdc++ is configured to use a dynamic buffer, the size of that buffer can now be tuned at runtime by setting the GLIBCXX_TUNABLES environment variable (c.f. PR libstdc++/88264). The number of exceptions to reserve space for is controlled by the "glibcxx.eh_pool.obj_count" and "glibcxx.eh_pool.obj_size" tunables. The pool will be sized to be able to allocate obj_count exceptions of size obj_size*sizeof(void*) and obj_count "dependent" exceptions rethrown by std::rethrow_exception. With the ability to tune the buffer size, we can reduce the default pool size on 32-bit and 16-bit targets. Most users never need to throw 1kB exceptions in parallel from hundreds of threads after malloc is OOM. The users who do need that can use the tunables to select larger sizes. The old defaults can be chosen at runtime by setting GLIBCXX_TUNABLES to: 64-bit: glibcxx.eh_pool.obj_count=64:glibcxx.eh_pool.obj_size=112 32-bit: glibcxx.eh_pool.obj_count=32:glibcxx.eh_pool.obj_size=104 Or approximated by configuring with: 64-bit: --with-libstdcxx-eh-pool-obj-count=252 32-bit: --with-libstdcxx-eh-pool-obj-count=94 libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog: PR libstdc++/68606 * Makefile.in: Regenerate. * acinclude.m4 (GLIBCXX_EMERGENCY_EH_ALLOC): New macro. * configure: Regenerate. * configure.ac: Use GLIBCXX_EMERGENCY_EH_ALLOC. * crossconfig.m4: Check for secure_getenv. * doc/Makefile.in: Regenerate. * doc/xml/manual/configure.xml: Document new configure options. * doc/xml/manual/evolution.xml: Document addition of tunables. * doc/xml/manual/using_exceptions.xml: Document emergency buffer and tunables. * doc/html/*: Regenerate. * include/Makefile.in: Regenerate. * libsupc++/Makefile.am: Use EH_POOL_FLAGS. * libsupc++/Makefile.in: Regenerate. * libsupc++/eh_alloc.cc (EMERGENCY_OBJ_SIZE): Define in units of sizeof(void*) not including the ABI's exception header.

This directory contains the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC). The GNU Compiler Collection is free software. See the files whose names start with COPYING for copying permission. The manuals, and some of the runtime libraries, are under different terms; see the individual source files for details. The directory INSTALL contains copies of the installation information as HTML and plain text. The source of this information is gcc/doc/install.texi. The installation information includes details of what is included in the GCC sources and what files GCC installs. See the file gcc/doc/gcc.texi (together with other files that it includes) for usage and porting information. An online readable version of the manual is in the files gcc/doc/gcc.info*. See http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs/ for how to report bugs usefully. Copyright years on GCC source files may be listed using range notation, e.g., 1987-2012, indicating that every year in the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that could otherwise be listed individually.
