If jemalloc is linked into a shared library, the RTLD_NEXT dlsym call may fail since RTLD_NEXT is only specified to search all objects after the current one in the loading order, and the pthread library may be earlier in the load order. Instead of failing immediately, attempt one more time to find pthread_create via RTLD_GLOBAL. Errors cascading from this were observed on FreeBSD 14.1.
jemalloc is a general purpose malloc(3) implementation that emphasizes fragmentation avoidance and scalable concurrency support. jemalloc first came into use as the FreeBSD libc allocator in 2005, and since then it has found its way into numerous applications that rely on its predictable behavior. In 2010 jemalloc development efforts broadened to include developer support features such as heap profiling and extensive monitoring/tuning hooks. Modern jemalloc releases continue to be integrated back into FreeBSD, and therefore versatility remains critical. Ongoing development efforts trend toward making jemalloc among the best allocators for a broad range of demanding applications, and eliminating/mitigating weaknesses that have practical repercussions for real world applications.
