Not all users of mas_store() enter with nodes already preallocated.
Check for the MA_STATE_PREALLOC flag to decide whether to preallocate nodes
within mas_store() rather than relying on future write helper functions
to perform the allocations. This allows the write helper functions to be
simplified as they do not have to do checks to make sure there are
enough allocated nodes to perform the write.

Introduce mas_wr_store_type() which will set the correct store type based
on a walk of the tree. In mas_wr_node_store() the <= min_slots condition
is changed to < as if new_end is = to mt_min_slots then there is not
enough room.
mas_prealloc_calc() is also introduced to abstract the calculation used to
determine the number of nodes needed for a store operation.
In this change a call to mas_reset() is removed in the error case of
mas_prealloc(). This is only needed in the MA_STATE_REBALANCE case of
mas_destroy(). We can move the call to mas_reset() directly to
mas_destroy().
Also, add a test case to validate the order that we check the store type
in is correct. This test models a vma expanding and then shrinking which
is part of the boot process.

The following scenario can result in a race condition:
Consider a node with the following indices and values
a<------->b<----------->c<--------->d
0xA NULL 0xB
CPU 1 CPU 2
--------- ---------
mas_set_range(a,b)
mas_erase()
-> range is expanded (a,c) because of null expansion
mas_nomem()
mas_unlock()
mas_store_range(b,c,0xC)
The node now looks like:
a<------->b<----------->c<--------->d
0xA 0xC 0xB
mas_lock()
mas_erase() <------ range of erase is still (a,c)
The node is now NULL from (a,c) but the write from CPU 2 should have been
retained and range (b,c) should still have 0xC as its value. We can fix
this by re-intializing to the original index and last. This does not need
a cc: Stable as there are no users of the maple tree which use internal
locking and this condition is only possible with internal locking.

mas_preallocate() defaults to requesting 1 node for preallocation and then
,depending on the type of store, will update the request variable. There
isn't a check for a slot store type, so slot stores are preallocating the
default 1 node. Slot stores do not require any additional nodes, so add a
check for the slot store case that will bypass node_count_gfp(). Update
the tests to reflect that slot stores do not require allocations.
User visible effects of this bug include increased memory usage from the
unneeded node that was allocated.

mtree_range_walk() needed to be updated to avoid checking if there was a
pivot value. On closer examination, the code could avoid setting min or
max in certain scenarios. The commit removes the extra check for
pivot[offset] before setting max and only sets max when necessary. It
also only sets min if it is necessary by checking offset 0 prior to the
loop (as it has always done).
The commit also drops a dead node check since the end of the node will
return the array size when the last slot is occupied (by a potential reuse
in a dead node). The data will be discarded later if the node is marked
dead.
Benchmarking these changes results in an increase in performance of 5.45%
using the BENCH_WALK in the maple tree test code.

Since the pivot being set is now reliable, the optimized loop no longer
needs to find the node end. The redundant check for a dead node can also
be avoided as there is no danger of using the wrong pivot since the
results will be thrown out in the case of a dead node by the later check.
This patch also adds a benchmark test for the function to the maple tree
test framework. The benchmark shows an average increase performance of
5.98% over 3 runs with this commit.

Patch series "maple_tree: iterator state changes".
These patches have some general cleanup and a change to separate the maple
state status tracking from the maple state node.
The maple state status change allows for walks to continue from previous
places when the status needs to be recorded to make logical sense for the
next call to the maple state. For instance, it allows for prev/next to
function in a way that better resembles the linked list. It also allows
switch statements to be used to detect missed states during compile, and
the addition of fast-path "active" state is cleaner as an enum.
While making the status change, perf showed some very small (one line)
functions that were not inlined even with the inline key word. Making
these small functions __always_inline is less expensive according to perf.
As part of that change, some inlines have been dropped from larger
functions.
Perf also showed that the commonly used mas_for_each() iterator was
spending a lot of time finding the end of the node. This series
introduces caching of the end of the node in the maple state (and updating
it during writes). This caching along with the inline changes yielded at
23.25% improvement on the BENCH_MAS_FOR_EACH maple tree test framework
benchmark.
I've also included a change to mtree_range_walk and mtree_lookup_walk to
take advantage of Peng's change [1] to the initial pivot setup.
mmtests did not produce any significant gains.

Introduce interfaces __mt_dup() and mtree_dup(), which are used to
duplicate a maple tree. They duplicate a maple tree in Depth-First Search
(DFS) pre-order traversal. It uses memcopy() to copy nodes in the source
tree and allocate new child nodes in non-leaf nodes. The new node is
exactly the same as the source node except for all the addresses stored in
it. It will be faster than traversing all elements in the source tree and
inserting them one by one into the new tree. The time complexity of these
two functions is O(n).
The difference between __mt_dup() and mtree_dup() is that mtree_dup()
handles locks internally.
Analysis of the average time complexity of this algorithm:
For simplicity, let's assume that the maximum branching factor of all
non-leaf nodes is 16 (in allocation mode, it is 10), and the tree is a
full tree.
Under the given conditions, if there is a maple tree with n elements, the
number of its leaves is n/16. From bottom to top, the number of nodes in
each level is 1/16 of the number of nodes in the level below. So the
total number of nodes in the entire tree is given by the sum of n/16 +
n/16^2 + n/16^3 + ... + 1. This is a geometric series, and it has log(n)
terms with base 16. According to the formula for the sum of a geometric
series, the sum of this series can be calculated as (n-1)/15. Each node
has only one parent node pointer, which can be considered as an edge. In
total, there are (n-1)/15-1 edges.
This algorithm consists of two operations:
1. Traversing all nodes in DFS order.
2. For each node, making a copy and performing necessary modifications
to create a new node.
For the first part, DFS traversal will visit each edge twice. Let
T(ascend) represent the cost of taking one step downwards, and T(descend)
represent the cost of taking one step upwards. And both of them are
constants (although mas_ascend() may not be, as it contains a loop, but
here we ignore it and treat it as a constant). So the time spent on the
first part can be represented as ((n-1)/15-1) * (T(ascend) + T(descend)).
For the second part, each node will be copied, and the cost of copying a
node is denoted as T(copy_node). For each non-leaf node, it is necessary
to reallocate all child nodes, and the cost of this operation is denoted
as T(dup_alloc). The behavior behind memory allocation is complex and not
specific to the maple tree operation. Here, we assume that the time
required for a single allocation is constant. Since the size of a node is
fixed, both of these symbols are also constants. We can calculate that
the time spent on the second part is ((n-1)/15) * T(copy_node) + ((n-1)/15
- n/16) * T(dup_alloc).
Adding both parts together, the total time spent by the algorithm can be
represented as:
((n-1)/15) * (T(ascend) + T(descend) + T(copy_node) + T(dup_alloc)) -
n/16 * T(dup_alloc) - (T(ascend) + T(descend))
Let C1 = T(ascend) + T(descend) + T(copy_node) + T(dup_alloc)
Let C2 = T(dup_alloc)
Let C3 = T(ascend) + T(descend)
Finally, the expression can be simplified as:
((16 * C1 - 15 * C2) / (15 * 16)) * n - (C1 / 15 + C3).
This is a linear function, so the average time complexity is O(n).

Patch series "Introduce __mt_dup() to improve the performance of fork()", v7.
This series introduces __mt_dup() to improve the performance of fork().
During the duplication process of mmap, all VMAs are traversed and
inserted one by one into the new maple tree, causing the maple tree to be
rebalanced multiple times. Balancing the maple tree is a costly
operation. To duplicate VMAs more efficiently, mtree_dup() and __mt_dup()
are introduced for the maple tree. They can efficiently duplicate a maple
tree.
Here are some algorithmic details about {mtree,__mt}_dup(). We perform a
DFS pre-order traversal of all nodes in the source maple tree. During
this process, we fully copy the nodes from the source tree to the new
tree. This involves memory allocation, and when encountering a new node,
if it is a non-leaf node, all its child nodes are allocated at once.
This idea was originally from Liam R. Howlett's Maple Tree Work email,
and I added some of my own ideas to implement it. Some previous
discussions can be found in [1]. For a more detailed analysis of the
algorithm, please refer to the logs for patch [3/10] and patch [10/10].
There is a "spawn" in byte-unixbench[2], which can be used to test the
performance of fork(). I modified it slightly to make it work with
different number of VMAs.
Below are the test results. The first row shows the number of VMAs. The
second and third rows show the number of fork() calls per ten seconds,
corresponding to next-20231006 and the this patchset, respectively. The
test results were obtained with CPU binding to avoid scheduler load
balancing that could cause unstable results. There are still some
fluctuations in the test results, but at least they are better than the
original performance.
