linux/include/linux/rbtree.h
To use rbtrees you'll have to implement your own insert and search cores.
This will avoid us to use callbacks and to drop drammatically performances.
I know it's not the cleaner way, but in C (not in C++) to get
performances and genericity...
rbtree: reference Documentation/rbtree.txt for usage instructions I recently started looking at the rbtree code (with an eye towards improving the augmented rbtree support, but I haven't gotten there yet). I noticed a lot of possible speed improvements, which I am now proposing in this patch set. Patches 1-4 are preparatory: remove internal functions from rbtree.h so that users won't be tempted to use them instead of the documented APIs, clean up some incorrect usages I've noticed (in particular, with the recently added fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c rbtree usage), reference the documentation so that people have one less excuse to miss it, etc. Patch 5 is a small module I wrote to check the rbtree performance. It creates 100 nodes with random keys and repeatedly inserts and erases them from an rbtree. Additionally, it has code to check for rbtree invariants after each insert or erase operation. Patches 6-12 is where the rbtree optimizations are done, and they touch only that one file, lib/rbtree.c . I am getting good results out of these - in my small benchmark doing rbtree insertion (including search) and erase, I'm seeing a 30% runtime reduction on Sandybridge E5, which is more than I initially thought would be possible. (the results aren't as impressive on my two other test hosts though, AMD barcelona and Intel Westmere, where I am seeing 14% runtime reduction only). The code size - both source (ommiting comments) and compiled - is also shorter after these changes. However, I do admit that the updated code is more arduous to read - one big reason for that is the removal of the tree rotation helpers, which added some overhead but also made it easier to reason about things locally. Overall, I believe this is an acceptable compromise, given that this code doesn't get modified very often, and that I have good tests for it. Upon Peter's suggestion, I added comments showing the rtree configuration before every rotation. I think they help; however it's still best to have a copy of the cormen/leiserson/rivest book when digging into this code. This patch: reference Documentation/rbtree.txt for usage instructions include/linux/rbtree.h included some basic usage instructions, while Documentation/rbtree.txt had some more complete and easier to follow instructions.

rbtree: Make lockless searches non-fatal Change the insert and erase code such that lockless searches are non-fatal. In and of itself an rbtree cannot be correctly searched while in-modification, we can however provide weaker guarantees that will allow the rbtree to be used in conjunction with other techniques, such as latches; see 9b0fd802e8c0 ("seqcount: Add raw_write_seqcount_latch()"). For this to work we need the following guarantees from the rbtree code: 1) a lockless reader must not see partial stores, this would allow it to observe nodes that are invalid memory. 2) there must not be (temporary) loops in the tree structure in the modifier's program order, this would cause a lookup which interrupts the modifier to get stuck indefinitely. For 1) we must use WRITE_ONCE() for all updates to the tree structure; in particular this patch only does rb_{left,right} as those are the only element required for simple searches. It generates slightly worse code, probably because volatile. But in pointer chasing heavy code a few instructions more should not matter. For 2) I have carefully audited the code and drawn every intermediate link state and not found a loop. Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Cc: "Paul E.

rbtree: cache leftmost node internally Patch series "rbtree: Cache leftmost node internally", v4. A series to extending rbtrees to internally cache the leftmost node such that we can have fast overlap check optimization for all interval tree users[1]. The benefits of this series are that: (i) Unify users that do internal leftmost node caching. (ii) Optimize all interval tree users. (iii) Convert at least two new users (epoll and procfs) to the new interface. This patch (of 16): Red-black tree semantics imply that nodes with smaller or greater (or equal for duplicates) keys always be to the left and right, respectively. For the kernel this is extremely evident when considering our rb_first() semantics. Enabling lookups for the smallest node in the tree in O(1) can save a good chunk of cycles in not having to walk down the tree each time. To this end there are a few core users that explicitly do this, such as the scheduler and rtmutexes. There is also the desire for interval trees to have this optimization allowing faster overlap checking. This patch introduces a new 'struct rb_root_cached' which is just the root with a cached pointer to the leftmost node. The reason why the regular rb_root was not extended instead of adding a new structure was that this allows the user to have the choice between memory footprint and actual tree performance. The new wrappers on top of the regular rb_root calls are: - rb_first_cached(cached_root) -- which is a fast replacement for rb_first. - rb_insert_color_cached(node, cached_root, new) - rb_erase_cached(node, cached_root) In addition, augmented cached interfaces are also added for basic insertion and deletion operations; which becomes important for the interval tree changes. With the exception of the inserts, which adds a bool for updating the new leftmost, the interfaces are kept the same. To this end, porting rb users to the cached version becomes really trivial, and keeping current rbtree semantics for users that don't care about the optimization requires zero overhead.

rbtree: empty nodes have no color Empty nodes have no color. We can make use of this property to simplify the code emitted by the RB_EMPTY_NODE and RB_CLEAR_NODE macros. Also, we can get rid of the rb_init_node function which had been introduced by commit 88d19cf37952 ("timers: Add rb_init_node() to allow for stack allocated rb nodes") to avoid some issue with the empty node's color not being initialized. I'm not sure what the RB_EMPTY_NODE checks in rb_prev() / rb_next() are doing there, though. axboe introduced them in commit 10fd48f2376d ("rbtree: fixed reversed RB_EMPTY_NODE and rb_next/prev"). The way I see it, the 'empty node' abstraction is only used by rbtree users to flag nodes that they haven't inserted in any rbtree, so asking the predecessor or successor of such nodes doesn't make any sense. One final rb_init_node() caller was recently added in sysctl code to implement faster sysctl name lookups. This code doesn't make use of RB_EMPTY_NODE at all, and from what I could see it only called rb_init_node() under the mistaken assumption that such initialization was required before node insertion.

rbtree: faster augmented rbtree manipulation Introduce new augmented rbtree APIs that allow minimal recalculation of augmented node information. A new callback is added to the rbtree insertion and erase rebalancing functions, to be called on each tree rotations. Such rotations preserve the subtree's root augmented value, but require recalculation of the one child that was previously located at the subtree root. In the insertion case, the handcoded search phase must be updated to maintain the augmented information on insertion, and then the rbtree coloring/rebalancing algorithms keep it up to date. In the erase case, things are more complicated since it is library code that manipulates the rbtree in order to remove internal nodes. This requires a couple additional callbacks to copy a subtree's augmented value when a new root is stitched in, and to recompute augmented values down the ancestry path when a node is removed from the tree. In order to preserve maximum speed for the non-augmented case, we provide two versions of each tree manipulation function. rb_insert_augmented() is the augmented equivalent of rb_insert_color(), and rb_erase_augmented() is the augmented equivalent of rb_erase().

rbtree: add postorder iteration functions Postorder iteration yields all of a node's children prior to yielding the node itself, and this particular implementation also avoids examining the leaf links in a node after that node has been yielded. In what I expect will be its most common usage, postorder iteration allows the deletion of every node in an rbtree without modifying the rbtree nodes (no _requirement_ that they be nulled) while avoiding referencing child nodes after they have been "deleted" (most commonly, freed). I have only updated zswap to use this functionality at this point, but numerous bits of code (most notably in the filesystem drivers) use a hand rolled postorder iteration that NULLs child links as it traverses the tree. Each of those instances could be replaced with this common implementation. 1 & 2 add rbtree postorder iteration functions. 3 adds testing of the iteration to the rbtree runtime tests 4 allows building the rbtree runtime tests as builtins 5 updates zswap. This patch: Add postorder iteration functions for rbtree. These are useful for safely freeing an entire rbtree without modifying the tree at all.

rbtree: clarify documentation of rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() I noticed that commit a20135ffbc44 ("writeback: don't drain bdi_writeback_congested on bdi destruction") added a usage of rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() in mm/backing-dev.c which appears to try to rb_erase() elements from an rbtree while iterating over it using rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe(). Doing this will cause random nodes to be missed by the iteration because rb_erase() may rebalance the tree, changing the ordering that we're trying to iterate over. The previous documentation for rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() wasn't clear that this wasn't allowed, it was taken from the docs for list_for_each_entry_safe(), where erasing isn't a problem due to list_del() not reordering. Explicitly warn developers about this potential pit-fall. Note that I haven't fixed the actual issue that (it appears) the commit referenced above introduced (not familiar enough with that code). In general (and in this case), the patterns to follow are: - switch to rb_first() + rb_erase(), don't use rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe(). - keep the postorder iteration and don't rb_erase() at all. Instead just clear the fields of rb_node & cgwb_congested_tree as required by other users of those structures.

The previous documentation for rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() wasn't clear that this wasn't allowed, it was taken from the docs for list_for_each_entry_safe(), where erasing isn't a problem due to list_del() not reordering. Explicitly warn developers about this potential pit-fall. Note that I haven't fixed the actual issue that (it appears) the commit referenced above introduced (not familiar enough with that code). In general (and in this case), the patterns to follow are: - switch to rb_first() + rb_erase(), don't use rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe(). - keep the postorder iteration and don't rb_erase() at all. Instead just clear the fields of rb_node & cgwb_congested_tree as required by other users of those structures.

*
* rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() provides a similar guarantee as
* list_for_each_entry_safe() and allows the iteration to continue independent
* of changes to @pos by the body of the loop.
*
* Note, however, that it cannot handle other modifications that re-order the
* rbtree it is iterating over. This includes calling rb_erase() on @pos, as
* rb_erase() may rebalance the tree, causing us to miss some nodes.
