    Subject[PATCH v4 00/66] Introducing the Maple Tree
    Date
    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. 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_sem contention.

    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.

    This patch is based on v5.16-rc2

    git: https://github.com/oracle/linux-uek/tree/howlett/maple/20211130

    v4 changes:
    - Added the option of using an external lock to the maple tree. This
    is especially useful for the VMA code as the mmap_lock can be used.
    - Added a vma iterator to abstract vma knowledge from subsystems
    - Rewrote mtree_walk() to be about 40% faster on simulated lookups in
    the test code
    - Reduce complexity in write side by reducing passing of flags in favor
    of smaller functions with minimal changes between the calls
    - Added struct ma_wr_state to keep track of a maple write state. This
    greatly reduces the passing of arguments during a write operation
    - Added new mas_find_rev() interface to find a value at a specific
    index or lower


    v3: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20211005012959.1110504-1-Liam.Howlett@oracle.com/
    v2: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20210817154651.1570984-1-Liam.Howlett@oracle.com/
    v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20210428153542.2814175-1-Liam.Howlett@Oracle.com/

    Performance on a 144 core x86:

    It is important to note that the code is still using the mmap_sem, the
    performance seems fairly similar on real-world workloads, while there
    are variations in micro-benchmarks.

    kernbench, increased system time, less user time:

    Increase in performance in the following micro-benchmarks in Hmean:
    - wis malloc1-threads: Increase of 1041% to 14%

    Decrease in performance in the following micro-benchmarks in Hmean:
    - wis brk1-processes: Decrease of -38% to -43%

    Mixed:
    - wis malloc1-processes: +5% to -18%

    ebizzy testing:

    ebizzy shows a slowdown of 13% to 32%. This benchmark seems to be
    especially noisy and both rb and maple tree exhibit runs that are
    abnormally high in both cache misses and instruction count. Several
    runs were used to remove the outliers.

    When perf is used to analyze ebizzy, the rbtree spends less time in
    native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath (58.95% rb vs 67.48% maple). lockdep
    showed that the mmap_lock is contended more for the maple tree.
    Investigation into the contention showed that increasing the spin time
    prior to the rw semaphore going to sleep helps the performance. The
    store operations are slower on the maple tree, so the write lock would
    be held longer which could account for the spin time expiring prior to
    the lock being released. The plan of introducing lockless lookups will
    remove all delays for the reader in this regard.

    Patch organization:

    Patches 1 to 4 are radix tree test suite additions for maple tree
    support.

    Patch 5 adds the maple tree. The bulk of which is test code.

    Patches 6-16 are the removal of the rbtree from the mm_struct. This now
    includes the introduction of the vma iterator.

    Patch 17 optimizes __vma_adjust() for the maple tree.

    Patches 18-24 are the removal of the vmacache from the kernel.

    Patches 25-65 are the removal of the linked list

    Patch 66 is a small cleanup from the removal of the vma linked list.
