ARM GICv3 systems with large number of CPUs create lots of IRQ pins. Since
every pin is represented as a property, number of these properties becomes
very large. Every property add first makes sure there's no duplicates.
Traversing the list becomes very slow, therefore qemu initialization takes
significant time (several seconds for e. g. 16 CPUs).

This patch replaces list with GHashTable, making lookup very fast. The only
drawback is that object_child_foreach() and object_child_foreach_recursive()
cannot modify their objects during traversal, since GHashTableIter does not
have modify-safe version. However, the code seems not to modify objects via
these functions.

Shouldn't this help similarly with the problem that 94649d423e worked
around? (Although that patch has standalone merits of course.)

Thanks

This should be obj->parent->properties.

Otherwise, the patch looks good.

Hmm.. modifying a child object internally should be fine, shouldn't
it?  IIUC only trying to remove it, change the key or the pointer to
the value should be problematic.

How much extra memory does each Object take with no (or few) properties by
using a hash table rather than a simple list here?

Ugh.  Iterating through the whole hash table to delete a member is
pretty nasty, buy I guess you have to because you're essentially
deleting by value rather than by key.  I suppose it's no worse than
the current path.

Yes it will.  The change to hash table would reduce my nasty O(n^3) case
to O(n^2) without 94649d423e, and to O(n) with it..

Hello!

 The glib documentation says that "Modifying the hash table after calling this function invalidates
the returned iterator". glib even includes an optional checks for this (under #ifndef
G_DISABLE_ASSERT): https://github.com/GNOME/glib/blob/master/glib/ghash.c#L782
 But, if you look, for example, inside  g_hash_table_iter_remove(), you'll see that they do exactly
the same (just remove the element), and then work around own check by incrementing both versions.

 I believe not a lot. GHashTable consists of 7 interers + 7 pointers:
