[PATCH v12 14/69] kernel/fork: use maple tree for dup_mmap() during forking

From: Liam Howlett
Date: Tue Jul 19 2022 - 22:18:50 EST


From: "Liam R. Howlett" <Liam.Howlett@xxxxxxxxxx>

The maple tree was already tracking VMAs in this function by an earlier
commit, but the rbtree iterator was being used to iterate the list.
Change the iterator to use a maple tree native iterator and switch to the
maple tree advanced API to avoid multiple walks of the tree during insert
operations. Unexport the now-unused vma_store() function.

For performance reasons we bulk allocate the maple tree nodes. The node
calculations are done internally to the tree and use the VMA count and
assume the worst-case node requirements. The VM_DONT_COPY flag does not
allow for the most efficient copy method of the tree and so a bulk loading
algorithm is used.
