Linux kernel source tree
361c678be7
Patch series "Reduce preallocations for maple tree", v3. Initial work on preallocations showed no regression in performance during testing, but recently some users (both on [1] and off [android] list) have reported that preallocating the worst-case number of nodes has caused some slow down. This patch set addresses the number of allocations in a few ways. During munmap() most munmap() operations will remove a single VMA, so leverage the fact that the maple tree can place a single pointer at range 0 - 0 without allocating. This is done by changing the index of the VMAs to be indexed by the count, starting at 0. Re-introduce the entry argument to mas_preallocate() so that a more intelligent guess of the node count can be made. Implement the more intelligent guess of the node count, although there is more work to be done. During development of v2 of this patch set, I also noticed that the number of nodes being allocated for a rebalance was beyond what could possibly be needed. This is addressed in patch 0008. This patch (of 15): Add a way to test the speed of mas_for_each() to the testing code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
