VMUserAddressSpace: Don't print unset reserved area name in KDL.

Reserved areas don't have the name field initialized, so explicitly
print "reserved" instead.

VMUserAddressSpace: Speed up area insertion with a hint.

The possible insertion range for B_*_ANY_ADDRESS always encompasses the
entire address space. Even though the initial starting point is now
looked up using a binary search tree, actually finding a free spot was
then still done using a linear search from there.

Store a simple insertion hint, the address directly following the
previous insertion of the same type, and use that as the next starting
point. In the common case this reduces the needed iterations to zero or
near zero.

No hint is used for B_*_BASE_ADDRESS specs as it is assumed that the
given base address already serves as such a hint.

Fixes the area creation performance part of #15995.

kernel/vm: Remove linear search from _get_next_area_info.

This introduces VMAddressSpace::FindClosestArea() that can be used to
find the closest area to a given address in either direction. This is
now trivial and efficient since both kernel and user address spaces use
a binary search tree.

Using FindClosestArea() getting multiple area infos is sped up
dramatically as it removes the need for a linear search from the first
area to the one given in the cookie on each successive invocation.

# 6d9329be 24-May-2020 Michael Lotz <mmlr@mlotz.ch>

VMUserAddressSpace: Make fAreas an AVLTree.

This is analogous to the AVLTree used for kernel address ranges in
VMKernelAddressSpace. It does not use an additional DoublyLinkedList
however.

Using a binary tree speeds up many operations that previously had to
iterate the area list linearly to find normal and reserved areas,
insertion start points, etc. It especially benefits LookupArea which is
called for every page fault and from area_for() when randomly accessing
different areas as that would make the previously used area hint (i.e.
a one level lookup cache) ineffective.

The overhead of the tree versus the doubly linked list for iteration,
insertion and removal is reasonably small and pales in comparison to
what the linear searches previously took up.

Fixes the lookup performance in #15995.

kernel/vm: Make sure the base address is larger than fBase.

This is technically only a functional change following the previous
commit, which unconditionally made sure the address was larger than
the base except for B_EXACT_ADDRESS. Essentially this makes sure
that if an address is passed which is smaller than the base is
passed in, it won't immediately fail just by being too small.

Checked against BeOS (0x0 passed to create_area with B_BASE_ADDRESS
succeeds, and returns 0x2000 consistently.) This is also needed
to not break userland initialization following the next commit.


# 836a9548 20-Feb-2019 Augustin Cavalier <waddlesplash@gmail.com>

kernel/vm: Remove VM86-related address space hacks.

VM86 was removed in 2012, so these are no longer needed.
The USER_BASE vs. USER_BASE_ANY distinction still seems like a
potentially useful one, though, so I've left all those changes in.

# 65ed4fa9 03-Apr-2013 Pawel Dziepak <pdziepak@quarnos.org>

vm: implement B_RANDOMIZED_IMAGE_ADDRESS address specification

On some 64 bit architectures program and library images have to be mapped in
the lower 2 GB of the address space (due to instruction pointer relative
addressing). Address specification B_RANDOMIZED_IMAGE_ADDRESS ensures that
created area satisfies that requirement.


# b3e4c677 26-Feb-2013 Pawel Dziepak <pdziepak@quarnos.org>

vm: implement B_RANDOMIZED_ANY_ADDRESS address specification

Randomized equivalent of B_ANY_ADDRESS. When a free space is found (as in
B_ANY_ADDRESS) the base adress is then randomized using _RandomizeAddress
pretty much like it is done in B_RANDOMIZED_BASE_ADDRESS.


# f9bab525 25-Feb-2013 Pawel Dziepak <pdziepak@quarnos.org>

vm: implement B_RANDOMIZED_BASE_ADDRESS address specification

B_RAND_BASE_ADDRESS is basically B_BASE_ADDRESS with non-deterministic created
area's base address.

Initial start address is randomized and then the algorithm looks for a large
enough free space in the interval [randomized start, end]. If it fails then
the search is repeated in the interval [original start, randomized start]. In
case it also fails the algorithm falls back to B_ANY_ADDRESS
(B_RANDOMIZED_ANY_ADDRESS when it is implemented) just like B_BASE_ADDRESS does.

Randomization range is limited by kMaxRandomize and kMaxInitialRandomize.


# afde37ff 29-Jul-2012 Alex Smith <alex@alex-smith.me.uk>

The USER_BASE_ANY definition exists to specify where to start searching

On x86_64, this was causing the runtime loader's heap to be allocated

attribute in a non-atomic manner. I.e. if executed concurrently by two

problem could be caused in vm_soft_fault(), leading to pages being added to
the wrong caches.
The bug itself is inherited from NewOS, but is triggered way more likely
since the page daemon unmaps inactive pages (r35485). Probably fixes #5413.
Might also fix the sporadically occurring crashes/asserts in the hoard
allocator -- at least inactive pages being replaced by zeroed ones would be
an excellent explanation.

* Renamed VMAddressSpace::ResizeArea{Head,Tail}() to ShrinkArea{Head,Tail}()
to clarify that they never enlarge the area.
* Reimplemented VMKernelAddressSpace. It is somewhat inspired by Bonwick's
vmem resource allocator (though we have different requirements):
- We consider the complete address space to be divided into contiguous
ranges of type free, reserved, or area, each range being represented by
a VMKernelAddressRange object.
- The range objects are managed in an AVL tree and a doubly linked list
(the latter only for faster iteration) sorted by address. This provides
O(log(n)) lookup, insertion and removal.
- For each power of two size we maintain a list of free ranges of at least
that size. Thus for the most common case of B_ANY*_ADDRESS area
allocation, we find a free range in constant time (the rest of the
processing being O(log(n))) with a rather good fit. This should also
help avoiding address space fragmentation.
While the new implementation should be faster, particularly with an
increasing number of areas, I couldn't measure any difference in the -j2
haiku build. From a cursory test the -j8 build hasn't tangibly benefitted
either.
