Subject: [PATCH] journalctl: Improve boot ID lookup
|
|
|
923a60 |
|
|
|
923a60 |
This method should greatly improve offset based lookup, by simply jumping
|
|
|
923a60 |
from one boot to the next boot. It starts at the journal head to get the
|
|
|
923a60 |
a boot ID, makes a _BOOT_ID match and then comes from the opposite
|
|
|
923a60 |
journal direction (tail) to get to the end that boot. After flushing the matches
|
|
|
923a60 |
and advancing the journal from that exact position, we arrive at the start
|
|
|
923a60 |
of next boot. Rinse and repeat.
|
|
|
923a60 |
|
|
|
923a60 |
This is faster than the old method of aggregating the full boot listing just
|
|
|
923a60 |
so we can jump to a specific boot, which can be a real pain on big journals
|
|
|
923a60 |
just for a mere "-b -1" case.
|
|
|
923a60 |
|
|
|
923a60 |
As an additional benefit --list-boots should improve slightly too, because
|
|
|
923a60 |
it does less seeking.
|
|
|
923a60 |
|
|
|
923a60 |
Note that there can be a change in boot order with this lookup method
|
|
|
923a60 |
because it will use the order of boots in the journal, not the realtime stamp
|
|
|
923a60 |
stored in them. That's arguably better, though.
|
|
|
923a60 |
Another deficiency is that it will get confused with boots interleaving in the
|
|
|
923a60 |
journal, therefore, it will refuse operation in --merge, --file and --directory mode.
