The quilt patch titled Subject: resource: avoid unnecessary resource tree walking in __region_intersects() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was resource-avoid-unnecessary-resource-tree-walking-in-__region_intersects.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-nonmm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: Huang Ying <ying.huang@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: resource: avoid unnecessary resource tree walking in __region_intersects() Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2024 20:27:35 +0800 Currently, if __region_intersects() finds any overlapped but unmatched resource, it walks the descendant resource tree to check for overlapped and matched descendant resources using for_each_resource(). However, in current kernel, for_each_resource() iterates not only the descendant tree, but also subsequent sibling trees in certain scenarios. While this doesn't introduce bugs, it makes code hard to be understood and potentially inefficient. So, the patch revises next_resource() and for_each_resource() and makes for_each_resource() traverse the subtree under the specified subtree root only. Test shows that this avoids unnecessary resource tree walking in __region_intersects(). For the example resource tree as follows, X | A----D----E | B--C if 'A' is the overlapped but unmatched resource, original kernel iterates 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E' when it walks the descendant tree. While the patched kernel iterates only 'B', 'C'. Thanks David Hildenbrand for providing a good resource tree example.
