[PATCH v1 3/3] perf maps: Add/use a sorted insert for fixup overlap and insert

From: Ian Rogers
Date: Tue May 21 2024 - 12:52:12 EST


Data may have lots of overlapping mmaps. The regular insert adds at
the end and relies on a later sort. For data with overlapping mappings
the sort will happen during a subsequent maps__find or
__maps__fixup_overlap_and_insert, there's never a period where the
inserted maps buffer up and a single sort happens. To avoid back to
back sorts, maintain the sort order when fixing up and
inserting. Previously the first_ending_after search was O(log n) where
n is the size of maps, and the insert was O(1) but because of the
continuous sorting was becoming O(n*log(n)). With maintaining sort
order, the insert now becomes O(n) for a memmove.

For a perf report on a perf.data file containing overlapping mappings
the time numbers are:

Before:
real 0m5.894s
user 0m5.650s
sys 0m0.231s

After:
real 0m0.675s
user 0m0.454s
sys 0m0.196s
