[PATCH 2/3] selftests/mm: mremap_test: Optimize execution time from minutes to seconds using chunkwise memcmp

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Mismatch index is currently being checked by a brute force iteration over the
buffer. Instead, break the comparison into O(sqrt(n)) number of chunks, with
the chunk size of this order only, where n is the size of the buffer. Do a
brute-force iteration to print to stdout only when the highly optimized
memcmp() library function returns a mismatch in the chunk.
The time complexity of this algorithm is O(sqrt(n)) * t, where t is the time
taken by memcmp(); for our test conditions, it is safe to assume t to be small.

NOTE: This patch depends on the previous one.
