intervals: Do not sort cached set elements over and over again
When adding element(s) to a non-empty set, code merged the two lists and sorted the result. With many individual 'add element' commands this causes substantial overhead. Make use of the fact that existing_set->init is sorted already, sort only the list of new elements and use list_splice_sorted() to merge the two sorted lists. Add set_sort_splice() and use it for set element overlap detection and automerge. A test case adding ~25k elements in individual commands completes in about 1/4th of the time with this patch applied. Joint work with Pablo. Fixes: 3da9643fb9ff9 ("intervals: add support to automerge with kernel elements") Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
