Changes from v1 (https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=149611025616685):
- No longer rfc. - Removed bogus semimcolon in rb_first_cached() - Updated missing interval tree user drivers/infiniband/hw/hfi1/ - Removed redundant @cached arg in when erasing a node. - Added more patches that make use of rb_first_cached(), which I thought might be worth it: procfs and epoll. - Cc more people for patch 5, which touches drivers such as infiniband and gpu. The rest of the changes are pretty covered with the current Cc'ed maintainers and mm folks. Hi, Here's a proposal for extending rbtrees to internally cache the leftmost node such that we can have fast overlap check optimization for all interval tree users[1]. Patch 1: Layout the rb machinery. Patches 2,3, 4: Make use of the internal leftmost node in scheduler and rt mutexes. Patch 5: Implements fast overlap checks for interval trees. Patch 6: rocket science. Patches 7,8: New patches that convert to O(1) rb_first_cached(). The series has survived booting, kernel builds and pistress workloads. Applies on top of 4.12-rc4 (next). Thanks!
