[PATCH v2 0/6] Red-black tree abstraction needed by Rust Binder
From: Matt Gilbride
Date: Mon Feb 19 2024 - 06:48:43 EST
This patchset contains the red-black tree abstractions needed by the Rust
implementation of the Binder driver.
Binder driver benefits from O(log n) search/insertion/deletion of
key/value mappings in various places, including `process.rs` and
`range_alloc.rs`. In `range_alloc.rs`, the ability to store and
search by a generic key type is also useful.
Please see the Rust Binder RFC for usage examples [1]. Note that
the `container_of` macro is currently used only by `rbtree` itself.

Not used in the original RFC, but introduced after further
code review. See: https://r.android.com/2849906
The Rust Binder RFC addresses the upstream deprecation of red-black
tree. Quoted here for convenience:
"This RFC uses the kernel's red-black tree for key/value mappings, but we
are aware that the red-black tree is deprecated. We did this to make the
performance comparison more fair, since C binder also uses rbtree for
this. We intend to replace these with XArrays instead. That said, we
don't think that XArray is a good fit for the range allocator, and we
propose to continue using the red-black tree for the range allocator."
