--use-system-tcmalloc does not support tcmalloc setParameters and extension

    • Type: Icon: Bug Bug
    • Resolution: Done
    • Priority: Icon: Minor - P4 Minor - P4
    • 3.0.3, 3.1.1
    • Affects Version/s: None
    • Component/s: Build, Internal Code
    • None
    • Fully Compatible
    • ALL

      There are two runtime parameters for tcmalloc that will have undefined behavior if mongod is compiled with --use-system-tcmalloc:

      	"tcmallocAggressiveMemoryDecommit" : 1,
      	"tcmallocMaxTotalThreadCacheBytes" : NumberLong(1073741824),
      

      We need to fix the includes in:
      src/mongo/util/tcmalloc_set_parameter.cpp
      src/mongo/util/tcmalloc_server_status_section.cpp

      And ifdef out the extension made to tcmalloc (GetThreadCacheSize())
