Stephane Maarek commented on KAFKA-5261:
----------------------------------------
this and possibly
{code}
private def aclMatch(session: Session, operations: Operation, resource:
Resource, principal: KafkaPrincipal, host: String, permissionType:
PermissionType, acls: Set[Acl]): Boolean = {
acls.find { acl =>
acl.permissionType == permissionType &&
(acl.principal == principal || acl.principal == Acl.WildCardPrincipal)
&&
(operations == acl.operation || acl.operation == All) &&
(acl.host == host || acl.host == Acl.WildCardHost)
}.exists { acl =>
authorizerLogger.debug(s"operation = $operations on resource = $resource
from host = $host is $permissionType based on acl = $acl")
true
}
}
{code}
In case acls is big, that could be costly to do over and over again

> Key: KAFKA-5261
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5261
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.10.2.1
> Reporter: Stephane Maarek
>
> Currently, looking at the KafkaApis class, it seems that every request going
> through Kafka is also going through an authorize check:
> {code}
> private def authorize(session: Session, operation: Operation, resource:
> Resource): Boolean =
> authorizer.forall(_.authorize(session, operation, resource))
> {code}
> The SimpleAclAuthorizer logic runs through checks which all look to be done
> in linear time (except on first run) proportional to the number of acls on a
> specific resource. This operation is re-run every time a client tries to use
> a Kafka Api, especially on the very often called `handleProducerRequest` and
> `handleFetchRequest`
> I believe a cache could be built to store the result of the authorize call,
> possibly allowing more expensive authorize() calls to happen, and reducing
> greatly the CPU usage in the long run. The cache would be invalidated every
> time a change happens to aclCache
> Thoughts before I try giving it a go with a PR?
