Compare the cost of allocating and freeing variable-sized regions using
a bitmap, IDA and a Maple Tree. All implementations process the same
randomly generated sequence of region sizes, ranging from 1 to 32 entries,
until the configured capacity is exhausted.

Run the benchmark at several capacities to show how the approaches
scale. Report allocation and free times separately because bitmap,
IDA and Maple Tree removal have substantially different costs.

On x86/kvm, the output example is:

type       alloc (ns)      free (ns)   capacity   memory (B)
bitmap      179573071         342105    1000000       125000
IDA          46555636       33931498    1000000       134864
maple        18629665       19741396    1000000      1548304

maple          185398         211138      10000        15632
bitmap           2253            610       1000          128
IDA             42755          36432       1000          144
maple           19728          23474       1000         1552

Reported IDA and Maple Tree memory figures exclude slab overhead
and transient allocations. The Maple Tree figure is additionally
a lower-bound estimate that assumes fully occupied leaf nodes and
excludes internal nodes.

IDA has no region-allocation API, so each region is implemented as
a sequence of single-ID allocations. The IDs remain contiguous
because this benchmark fills an initially empty IDA monotonically.

The benchmark is motivated by the discussion at the link below about
choosing the best data structure for the channel ID pool with the
capacity of 2048 IDs for the nova GPU driver.

Specifically for 2048 IDs the result is:

bitmap           3907            831       2048          256
IDA             83545          71007       2048          848
maple           34632          39710       2048         3600

The report itself doesn't make it obvious. I think "memory (B)" can be
misleading. Perhaps we should use a clearer column name or add a short note
before/after the report for explaining the columns?

To eliminate possible effects of optimization messing up benchmark, please add a
barrier() after start timing and a barrier() before end timing. Probably you'd
want one between each loop iteration too.

I wonder if the numbers could be more useful if it is somehow normalized (e.g.
by how many iterations are performed?)? This number can be computed by adding
up the prefix of region_sizes until it cover all capacity.

Also, the capacity should probably be made part of the report header for all 3
ID allocators. Given this is randomized benchmark the single line, when taken
out of context, is not very meaningful anyway.

Something like this might be better (fake numbers below, you might also need
some fix point printing):

capacity = 1000000, regions = 100000
type       alloc (ns/region) free (ns/region) memory (B/capacity)
