The span iterator travels over the indexes of the interval_tree, not the nodes, and classifies spans of indexes as either 'used' or 'hole'. 'used' spans are fully covered by nodes in the tree and 'hole' spans have no node intersecting the span. This is done greedily such that spans are maximally sized and every iteration step switches between used/hole. As an example a trivial allocator can be written as: for (interval_tree_span_iter_first(&span, itree, 0, ULONG_MAX); !interval_tree_span_iter_done(&span); interval_tree_span_iter_next(&span)) if (span.is_hole && span.last_hole - span.start_hole >= allocation_size - 1) return span.start_hole; With all the tricky boundary conditions handled by the library code. The following iommufd patches have several algorithms for its overlapping node interval trees that are significantly simplified with this kind of iteration primitive. As it seems generally useful, put it into lib/.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
