[PATCH v2 04/12] attr: don't recompute default attribute source

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The `default_attr_source()` function lazily computes the attr source
supposedly once, only. This is done via a static variable `attr_source`
that contains the resolved object ID of the attr source's tree. If the
variable is the null object ID then we try to look up the attr source,
otherwise we skip over it.

This approach is flawed though: the variable will never be set to
anything else but the null object ID in case there is no attr source.
Consequently, we re-compute the information on every call. And in the
worst case, when we silently ignore bad trees, this will cause us to try
and look up the treeish every single time.

Improve this by introducing a separate variable `has_attr_source` to
track whether we already computed the attr source and, if so, whether we
have an attr source or not.

This also allows us to convert the `ignore_bad_attr_tree` to not be
static anymore as the code will only be executed once anyway.
