You can see our code at 'tools/kvm/util/rbtree-interval.c', > basically all we need are the 2 augmentation functions I've mentioned > above. Just a little question about Documentation/rbtree.txt: I see that find_lowest_match(lo, hi, node) seems to use ">" and "<" to compare the lo value with the max_hi and node->lo. I think it would be more natural to do range comparison functions with inclusive ranges (>= and <=). Or maybe I am missing something about the way find_lowest_match works ?
