Description

MFC r323656

Modify blst_leaf_alloc to take only the cursor argument.

Modify blst_leaf_alloc to find allocations that cross the boundary between
one leaf node and the next when those two leaves descend from the same
meta node.

Update the hint field for leaves so that it represents a bound on how
large an allocation can begin in that leaf, where it currently represents
a bound on how large an allocation can be found within the boundaries of
the leaf.

The first phase of blst_leaf_alloc currently shrinks sequences of
consecutive 1-bits in mask until each has been shrunken by count-1 bits,
so that any bits remaining show where an allocation can begin, or until
all the bits have disappeared, in which case the allocation fails. This
change amends that so that the high-order bit is copied, as if, when the
last block was free, it was followed by an endless stream of free
blocks. It also amends the early stopping condition, so that the shrinking
of 1-sequences stops early when there are none, or there is only one
unbounded one remaining.

The search for the first set bit is unchanged, and the code path
thereafter is mostly unchanged unless the first set bit is in a position
that makes some of those copied sign bits matter. In that case, we look
for a next leaf, and at what blocks it can provide, to see if a
cross-boundary allocation is possible.

The hint is updated on a successful allocation that clears the last bit,
but it not updated on a failed allocation that leaves the last bit
set. So, as long as the last block is free, the hint value for the leaf is
large. As long as the last block is free, and there's a next leaf, a large
allocation can begin here, perhaps. A stricter rule than this would mean
that allocations and frees in one leaf could require hint updates to the
preceding leaf, and this change seeks to leave the freeing code
unmodified.

Define BLIST_BMAP_MASK, and use it for bit masking in blst_leaf_free and
blist_leaf_fill, as well as in blst_leaf_alloc.

Correct a panic message in blst_leaf_free.
