From 8c060833c8c477f9358470dc996d119657165a51 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: nekral-guest Date: Sat, 13 Sep 2008 11:54:49 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] From RedHat's patch shadow-4.1.2-sysAccountDownhill.patch Thanks to Peter Vrabec. * NEWS, libmisc/find_new_gid.c, libmisc/find_new_uid.c: Build an index of used IDs to avoid a database request for each id in the allowed range (when the highest allowed ID is already used). This speedups the addition of users or groups when the highest allowed ID is already used. The additional memory usage of the tools should be acceptable when UID_MAX/SYS_UID_MAX are set to a reasonable number. --- ChangeLog | 12 ++++++++++++ NEWS | 7 +++++++ libmisc/find_new_gid.c | 18 +++++++++++------- libmisc/find_new_uid.c | 14 +++++++++----- 4 files changed, 39 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/ChangeLog b/ChangeLog index 1d5fe2ce..a1cdcd26 100644 --- a/ChangeLog +++ b/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,15 @@ +2008-09-07 Nicolas François + + From RedHat's patch shadow-4.1.2-sysAccountDownhill.patch + Thanks to Peter Vrabec. + * NEWS, libmisc/find_new_gid.c, libmisc/find_new_uid.c: Build an + index of used IDs to avoid a database request for each id in the + allowed range (when the highest allowed ID is already used). + This speedups the addition of users or groups when the highest + allowed ID is already used.
