Why do we still have a global variable for this? I thought that we would
be having this in struct machine?

Ok, I shouldn't have done this, but I went on and looked at the second
patch, and there, this goes away, why not avoid introducing the global
in the first place?

I.e. the existing code operates on a data structure that holds struct
dsos, you are switching to a new data structure, so it looked natural to
me to do this in one step, no?

Also at some point I thought about adding rb_tree helper functions to do
some rb__for_each() like operation, i.e. to sequentially access the
rb_tree instead of using it for searching using its key. PeterZ
rightfully nacked that because that would, IIRC, encourage people to use
a rb_tree to do linear searches for normal operation, i.e. not just for
rb_tree__printf() dump like routines:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/1/13/227

Also I saw at least one place where some foo__for_each_entry_safe() is
used but the loop doesn't look like it will remove/add anything to the
data structure that is being made "_safe", i.e. it should remain
foo__for_each_entry(), as it was before.

So, I would _keep_ the list_head, or else replace it with a another
rb_node to do lookups on it by shortname the same way we do for long
names.

The cheapest thing now would be for solving your problem, i.e. use a
rb_tree for searching for long names, keep the list_head for short names
linear searches.

I suggest having a

struct dsos {
	struct list_head short_names;
	struct rb_root	 long_names;
};

Then make struct machine use this type for:

	struct dsos	kernel_dsos, user_dsos;

Then all those dsos__find* routines stop receiving a list_head pointer
and start receiving a "struct dsos" instance.

That way it can add the dso to both containers, the one "sorted" by
short names (that linear search, just like before) and to the rb_tree
sorted by long names.
