Relocate the declaration of mas_empty_area_rev() so that mas_empty_area()
and mas_empty_area_rev() are together.

Some users of the maple tree may want to move to the previous range
regardless of the value stored there. Add this interface as well as the
'find' variant to support walking to the first value, then iterating over
the previous ranges.

Some users of the maple tree may want to move to the next range in the
tree, even if it stores a NULL. This family of function provides that
functionality by advancing one slot at a time and returning the result,
while mas_contiguous() will iterate over the range and stop on
encountering the first NULL.

If RCU is enabled and the tree isn't locked, just warn the user and avoid

Patch series "VMA tree type safety and remove __vma_adjust()", v4.
This patchset does two things: 1. Clean up, including removal of
__vma_adjust() and 2. Extends the VMA iterator API to provide type safety
to the VMA operations using the maple tree, as requested by Linus [1].
It also addresses another issue of usability brought up by Linus about
needing to modify the maple state within the loops. The maple state has
been replaced by the VMA iterator and the iterator is now modified within
the MM code so the caller should not need to worry about doing the work
themselves when tree modifications occur.
This brought up a potential inconsistency of the iterator state and what
the user expects, so the inconsistency is addressed to keep the VMA
iterator safe for use after the looping over a VMA range. This is
addressed in patch 3 ("maple_tree: Reduce user error potential") and 4
("test_maple_tree: Test modifications while iterating").
While cleaning up the state, the duplicate locking code in mm/mmap.c
introduced by the maple tree has been address by abstracting it to two
functions: vma_prepare() and vma_complete(). These abstractions allowed
for a much simpler __vma_adjust(), which eventually leads to the removal
of the __vma_adjust() function by placing the logic into the vma_merge()
function itself.

This patch (of 49):
Add a function that will zero out the maple state struct and set some
basic defaults.

Along the development cycle, the testing code support for module/in-kernel
compiles was removed. Restore this functionality by moving any internal
API tests to the userspace side, as well as threading tests. Fix the
lockdep issues and add a way to reduce memory usage so the tests can
complete with KASAN + memleak detection. Make the tests work on 32 bit
hosts where possible and detect 32 bit hosts in the radix test suite.

Patch series "Introducing the Maple Tree"
The maple tree is an RCU-safe range based B-tree designed to use modern
processor cache efficiently. There are a number of places in the kernel
that a non-overlapping range-based tree would be beneficial, especially
one with a simple interface. If you use an rbtree with other data
structures to improve performance or an interval tree to track
non-overlapping ranges, then this is for you.
The tree has a branching factor of 10 for non-leaf nodes and 16 for leaf
nodes. With the increased branching factor, it is significantly shorter
than the rbtree so it has fewer cache misses. The removal of the linked
list between subsequent entries also reduces the cache misses and the need
to pull in the previous and next VMA during many tree alterations.
The first user that is covered in this patch set is the vm_area_struct,
where three data structures are replaced by the maple tree: the augmented
rbtree, the vma cache, and the linked list of VMAs in the mm_struct. The
long term goal is to reduce or remove the mmap_lock contention.
The plan is to get to the point where we use the maple tree in RCU mode.
Readers will not block for writers. A single write operation will be
allowed at a time. A reader re-walks if stale data is encountered. VMAs
would be RCU enabled and this mode would be entered once multiple tasks
are using the mm_struct.
Davidlor said
: Yes I like the maple tree, and at this stage I don't think we can ask for
: more from this series wrt the MM - albeit there seems to still be some
: folks reporting breakage. Fundamentally I see Liam's work to (re)move
: complexity out of the MM (not to say that the actual maple tree is not
: complex) by consolidating the three complimentary data structures very
: much worth it considering performance does not take a hit. This was very
: much a turn off with the range locking approach, which worst case scenario
: incurred in prohibitive overhead. Also as Liam and Matthew have
: mentioned, RCU opens up a lot of nice performance opportunities, and in
: addition academia[1] has shown outstanding scalability of address spaces
: with the foundation of replacing the locked rbtree with RCU aware trees.
A similar work has been discovered in the academic press
https://pdos.csail.mit.edu/papers/rcuvm:asplos12.pdf
Sheer coincidence. We designed our tree with the intention of solving the
hardest problem first. Upon settling on a b-tree variant and a rough
outline, we researched ranged based b-trees and RCU b-trees and did find
that article. So it was nice to find reassurances that we were on the
right path, but our design choice of using ranges made that paper unusable
for us.

There is additional BUG_ON() calls added within the tree, most of which
are in debug code. These will be replaced with a WARN_ON() call in the
future. There is also additional BUG_ON() calls within the code which
will also be reduced in number at a later date. These exist to catch
things such as out-of-range accesses which would crash anyways.
