Steven Rostedt (VMware) 301011ba62 tools lib traceevent: Remove unneeded qsort and uses memmove instead
While reading a trace data file that had 100,000s of tasks, the process
took an extremely long time. I profiled it down to add_new_comm(), which
was doing a qsort() call on an array that was pretty much already sorted
(all but the last element. qsort() isn't very efficient when dealing
with mostly sorted arrays, and this definitely showed its issues.

When adding a new task to the task list, instead of using qsort(), do
another bsearch() with a function that will find the element before
where the new task will be inserted in. Then simply shift the rest of
the array, and insert the task where it belongs.

README

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.
