I think it could be worth taking the first approach and providing functions that are tied specifically to the use cases of the GPUVA manager, rather than generalizing them too much and re-walk the tree more than necessary. I think the size of the tree can be up to a couple 100k. Since some operations may be executed from dma-fence signalling critical sections I have a use case for mas_preallocate(). I was wondering if I can ignore the "entry" argument of mas_preallocate() and just pass NULL, since it's actually never used. What's the purpose of this argument?
