Subject: [PATCH v7 10/10] fork: Use __mt_dup() to duplicate maple tree in dup_mmap()
In dup_mmap(), using __mt_dup() to duplicate the old maple tree and then
directly replacing the entries of VMAs in the new maple tree can result
in better performance. __mt_dup() uses DFS pre-order to duplicate the
maple tree, so it is efficient.
The average time complexity of __mt_dup() is O(n), where n is the number
of VMAs. The proof of the time complexity is provided in the commit log
that introduces __mt_dup(). After duplicating the maple tree, each element
is traversed and replaced (ignoring the cases of deletion, which are rare).
Since it is only a replacement operation for each element, this process is
also O(n).
Analyzing the exact time complexity of the previous algorithm is
challenging because each insertion can involve appending to a node, pushing
data to adjacent nodes, or even splitting nodes. The frequency of each
action is difficult to calculate. The worst-case scenario for a single
insertion is when the tree undergoes splitting at every level. If we
consider each insertion as the worst-case scenario, we can determine that
the upper bound of the time complexity is O(n*log(n)), although this is a
loose upper bound. However, based on the test data, it appears that the
actual time complexity is likely to be O(n).
As the entire maple tree is duplicated using __mt_dup(), if dup_mmap()
fails, there will be a portion of VMAs that have not been duplicated in
the maple tree. To handle this, we mark the failure point with
XA_ZERO_ENTRY. In exit_mmap(), if this marker is encountered, stop
releasing VMAs that have not been duplicated after this point.
There is a "spawn" in byte-unixbench[1], 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.
