To find an unused Binder handle, Rust Binder currently iterates the
red/black tree from the beginning until it finds a gap in the keys. This
is extremely slow.
To improve the performance, add a bitmap that keeps track of which
indices are actually in use. This allows us to quickly find an unused
key in the red/black tree.
For a benchmark, please see the below numbers that were obtained from
modifying binderThroughputTest to send a node with each transaction and
stashing it in the server. This results in the number of nodes
increasing by one for every transaction sent. I got the following table
of roundtrip latencies (in µs):
Transaction Range │ Baseline (Rust) │ Bitmap (Rust) │ Comparison (C)
0 - 10,000 │ 176.88 │ 92.93 │ 99.41
10,000 - 20,000 │ 437.37 │ 87.74 │ 98.55
20,000 - 30,000 │ 677.49 │ 76.24 │ 96.37
30,000 - 40,000 │ 901.76 │ 83.39 │ 96.73
40,000 - 50,000 │ 1126.62 │ 100.44 │ 94.57
50,000 - 60,000 │ 1288.98 │ 94.38 │ 96.64
60,000 - 70,000 │ 1588.74 │ 88.27 │ 96.36
70,000 - 80,000 │ 1812.97 │ 93.97 │ 91.24
80,000 - 90,000 │ 2062.95 │ 92.22 │ 102.01
90,000 - 100,000 │ 2330.03 │ 97.18 │ 100.31
It should be clear that the current Rust code becomes linearly slower
per insertion as the number of calls to rb_next() per transaction
increases. After this change, the time to find an ID number appears
constant. (Technically it is not constant-time as both insertion and
removal scan the entire bitmap. However, quick napkin math shows that
scanning the entire bitmap with N=100k takes ~1.5µs, which is neglible
in a benchmark where the rountrip latency is 100µs.)
I've included a comparison to the C driver, which uses the same bitmap
algorithm as this patch since commit

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
