Subject: maple_tree: fix mt_destroy_walk() on root leaf node
Date: Wed, 11 Jun 2025 01:12:51 +0000
Patch series "maple_tree: Fix the replacement of a root leaf node", v3.
On destroy we should set each node dead. But current code miss this when
the maple tree has only the root node.
The reason is that mt_destroy_walk() leverages mte_destroy_descend() to
set the node dead, but this is skipped since the only root node is a leaf.
Patch 1 fixes this.
When adding a test case, I found we always get the new value even when we
leave the old root node not dead. It turns out we always re-walk the tree
in mas_walk(). It looks like a typo on the status check of mas_walk().
Patch 2 fixes this.
Patch 3 adds a test case to assert retrieving new value when overwriting
the whole range to a tree with only root node.
This patch (of 3):
On destroy, we should set each node dead. But current code miss this when
the maple tree has only the root node.
The reason is mt_destroy_walk() leverage mte_destroy_descend() to set node
dead, but this is skipped since the only root node is a leaf.
Fixes this by setting the node dead if it is a leaf.
