[PATCH 1/2] [RFC] Range tree implementation

From: John Stultz
Date: Thu Feb 09 2012 - 19:17:05 EST


After Andrew suggested something like his mumbletree idea
to better store a list of ranges, I worked on a few different
approaches, and this is what I've finally managed to get working.

I suspect range-tree isn't a totally accurate name, but I
couldn't quite make out the difference between range trees
and interval trees, so I just picked one to call it. Do
let me know if you have a better name.

The idea of storing ranges in a tree is nice, but has a number
of complications. When adding a range, its possible that a
large range will consume and merge a number of smaller ranges.
When removing a range, its possible you may end up splitting an
existing range, causing one range to become two. This makes it
very difficult to provide generic list_head like behavior, as
the parent structures would need to be duplicated and removed,
and that has lots of memory ownership issues.

So, this is a much simplified and more list_head like
implementation. You can add a node to a tree, or remove a node
to a tree, but the generic implementation doesn't do the
merging or splitting for you. But it does provide helpers to
find overlapping and adjacent ranges.

I made the tree self-balancing via splaying as it seemed easier
to handle with the merging/splitting cases I originally tried to
make the generic code handle, but since I've dropped that, I
suspect it can be reworked to use a rbtree. I just wanted to get
this out for initial review.

Andrew also really wanted this range-tree implementation to be
resuable so we don't duplicate the file locking logic. I'm not
totally convinced that the requirements between the volatile
ranges and file locking are really equivelent, but this reduced
impelementation may make it possible.

Do let me know what you think or if you have other ideas for
better ways to do the same.

thanks
